Feeling triumphant that he had successfully caught a big fish, Shen Tunan walked out of the main hall, wearing a dragon robe.
Ministers rushed to the emperor's aid after hearing the news.
At this moment, Gu Yuanbai was lying in ambush on the roof, his bow fully drawn, aiming at Shen Tunan's heart.
After going around in circles, power remained elusive, love seemed impossibly distant, and in the end, revenge was the only outcome.
Gu Yuanbai was extremely grateful that his father was still there to avenge him, which kept him from collapsing.

Gu Yuanbai was overwhelmed with emotions, but in the end, the image that flashed before his eyes was Mu Tu's face.
