Now, all he wanted was to climb higher, and in his attempt to curry favor with his superiors, he ended up in this predicament, having made a fool of himself.
Li Yansong died with his eyes wide open in disbelief. This whole affair was started by Zhang Zheng. He was the one who first mentioned the divine medicine of the Nangong Divine Sect, and he was the one who planned all of this. How could he be the only one to face this mess?
