Would the Empress of the Empire allow her deepest secrets to be discovered?
Huo Zhanting and the others were prepared to fight with their backs against the wall.
No matter the final outcome, they would face it together.
The men exchanged a look.
They had schemed against each other, thrown shade, come to blows, and looked down on one another.
But today, only one thought remained.
"We have to make it back alive!"
Because if any one of them died, it would be devastating news for Yu Lan.
'Sometimes, I wish all my rivals would just die so I could have Yu Lan all to myself.'
'But if it would make Yu Lan sad, then it's best if everyone stays alive and well.'
"All right."
Huo Zhanting's voice was low and raspy.
"There's no time to waste. We leave now."
"Everyone, be careful on the way."
"Shen Zueran, Pei Shiyi, Sheng Yiqing, if you three notice anything wrong on Central Star, don't hesitate. Leave immediately."
"You can come find me, or Jun Lin Yuan, or even Su Xingye."
