"What, you're not obeying my orders?"
The Empress's words still showed little emotional fluctuation.
However, everyone present felt immense pressure.
Even Kuangyin was drenched in sweat at this moment!
Kuangyin cupped his hands in greeting: "I dare not!"
"You don't dare?"
The Empress chuckled, "If you dare not, why do you still dare to cause trouble in this hall? A life-or-death duel is a matter for which no one can interfere; it is the law of the Empire. Does your Taiyi Sect intend to be above the law of the Empire? Or does your Taiyi Sect intend to be above this Empress?!"
