Things didn’t happen as he anticipated.
Because Ranmil was stumbling toward him. Blood covered her dress and she was crying as she ran.
A ferocious swordsman was following her closely from behind and would strike her with the sword every few moments.
“Go!”
Infuriated, Chieftain Senal gave Seko, the captain of his guard, an order, and the man charged out.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
He broke into a fight with Xuan Yi.
Chieftain Senal rushed to Ranmil’s side and steadied her.
“What happened? What’s going on?!” Chieftain Senal was astonished.
As soon as he made contact with her, he noticed that the spiritual essence inside her had become so much weaker.
The genius teenage girl that he had had so much hope for was…
“A Spiritual Grandmaster?! How can you be a Spiritual Grandmaster? Ranmil, say something!” Chieftain Senal had never been so furious and scared before.
“And is that man of the Junwu Empire trying to kill you?!” he bellowed.
The warriors of the grassland stood in a row behind him and drew out their swords.
At the same time.
Emperor Wu couldn’t sit still anymore. He left his seat and quickly walked up to Chieftain Senal and Ranmil.
After all, he was the empire of the Junwu Empire and could remain level-headed.
Since Chieftain Senal’s warriors had drawn out their weapons, the guards behind Emperor Wu did the same. They drew out their weapons as well.
The atmosphere became very tense, and a battle could break out at any moment.
Chieftain Senal bellowed at Sefiro. “Speak! Don’t just stand there!”
Sefiro didn’t expect this to happen either and was still dumbfounded.
Hearing her father’s bellow, she finally returned to herself.
“Father!!!”
After all the trepidation she had experienced in the tomb chambers, Sefiro finally burst into tears.
“Speak!” Chieftain Senal’s love and pity were for Ranmil only.
Sefiro quickly thought things through and said between broken sobs, “Xuan Yi wanted to kill my sister because he thought that she pushed Feng Wu back into the tombs.”
WHAT?!
The looks on everyone’s faces changed.
“Yes. It was quite a complicated situation. Something happened in the tombs, and the Black Robe Ghost King told us to get out… So we just kept running. When we reached the door, Feng Wu… She was a little too late to get out, and my sister just happened to be standing there. Young Lord Xuan thought that my sister had done something, so he’s trying to kill her…”
“Something happened inside? Is the place destroyed?”
“Was Feng Wu not in time to get out?”
“So, she’s buried down there.”
Immediately, all eyes were on Sefiro.
The empress dowager, Empress Dugu, Mrs. Dugu, and Mrs Zuo all began to ask questions.
“Yes. Feng Wu didn’t get out. She’s buried inside… forever,” Sefiro said affirmatively.
Lady Northern Feng felt blood rushing to her head, and her vision went blurry.
“My lady!”
Granny Tao immediately steadied her.
“Feng Wu hasn’t come out. So, she’s dead, just like that?”
