Chapter 2318: Interrogation of the Soul
The Green Iguana King swallowed with difficulty. His body started trembling even more. He even secretly gave the entrance a look, as if he was considering whether to run or not.
Just then, the palace emissary who had brought Zu An here coldly said, “Green Iguana King, hurry and meet with the lord. There are still others waiting after you.”
The Green Iguana King could only give up on any thoughts of escape. He looked at Zu An as if they were fellow sufferers. His mouth moved slightly. He considered allying with Zu An in secret to risk it all, but when he gave the glowering palace emissary a look and thought about the Monster Lord’s terrifying power, he ended up giving up on that thought. He hung his head and started to walk up the stairs.
As Zu An looked at his back, he almost felt as if the Green Iguana King wasn’t going up a flight of stairs, but rather was walking to his own execution.
Zu An looked around the area. There were some guards standing off to either side in the distance. They were a bit similar to the palace emissary, but they didn’t have wings. The energies their bodies gave off were much weaker too. Because of the stairs, Zu An couldn't see what was beyond them.
He wanted to send out his divine sense to find out what was going on inside, but he was worried that he would be found out by the Monster Lord and offend him. After all, with his strength, the Monster Lord would definitely be able to sense such a thing. As a result, Zu An decided to just quietly stand in place. He began to think about what to do later.
Roughly fifteen minutes later, the palace emissary in front of the stairs appeared again. “Donaire, the lord will now meet you.”
Zu An was stunned. He couldn't help but ask the same question the Green Iguana King had asked. “The Green Iguana King hasn’t come out yet?”
“There is no need for him to come back out,” said the palace emissary indifferently, as if he was saying something extremely trivial and commonplace.
