Chapter 44: True Monarch, Profound Monarch
Inside the Beast-Fighting Palace, Lin Longyue sat upright in her chair, her face betraying no emotion. Her gaze swept over the people in the hall.
Chu Linzi wore a faint smile, completely ignoring the oppressive atmosphere in the hall.
County Princess Yunhe held her teacup, maintaining her usual languid demeanor.
Yang Zhuri conversed in low tones with a brocade-robed youth beside him...
It was as if they were all accustomed to these bizarre beast fights.
Lin Longyue furrowed her brows slightly, simply because she had seen Qiu Chihu walk into the Beast-Fighting Palace.
'That Qiu Chihu is a figure of Silver Bone Great Completion, with a profound family heritage. If he goes up against those beast fighters, won't he slaughter them all?'
'Are none of them surprised by this? Why didn't County Princess Yunhe tell me earlier?'
Lin Longyue murmured in her heart, her frown deepening.
