Hearing this, Shenok's heart trembled, and he subconsciously looked at Szelote. He knew Szelote's character very well.

From childhood to adulthood, Szelot had always been serious and unsmiling. Therefore, in Shenok's memory, Szelot rarely addressed himself as "Your Highness".

But now, this man who has always been impartial and selfless would actually plead for mercy for a suspicious person who broke into the palace at night, and even gave up his usual persistence and principles.

"Have you caught the person? Did you see clearly who it is?" Xie Teming walked up to them and looked at the three of them, his eyes revealing a hint of severity and dissatisfaction.

At this time, Shenok stepped forward first and said with a guilty tone: "I'm sorry, father. He was wrapped too tightly and his face was completely invisible. We couldn't catch him and he ran away."

"Run away? All three of you couldn't catch a person?" Xie Teming frowned, his voice revealing obvious doubt.

Xie Teming turned to look at Szelote and said sharply, "You, the number one knight of Saint Kaya City, couldn't even catch it?"

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty..."

Xie Teming narrowed his eyes and did not expose them on the spot, but just looked at them with a meaningful look.

Finally, he sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, it seems that your abilities are still too weak. Go back and practice hard!" After that, Xie Teming turned and left.

However, what Szelot didn't know was that Xie Teming had already known everything that had just happened to them from the earring.

Xie Teming had actually discovered Xie Qi's existence a long time ago. After all, it was too unbelievable that a civilian had awakened light magic, and it couldn't help but make people suspicious.

Not only that, he had just clearly seen through the magic earrings that the person who broke into the palace at night was Xie Qi.

The reason why he didn't say it out loud was because he wanted to see how Szellot would deal with this matter next and how many unexpected surprises it would bring him.

Perhaps tonight, he will be able to uncover Xie Qi's true identity. Is he just an ordinary civilian, or does he have other unknown secrets?

Thinking of this, Xie Teming couldn't help but reveal a mysterious smile: "It's really getting more and more interesting..."
