Chapter 80 (1/2)

Failed Assassination

In the dazzling hall, everywhere was gorgeous and luxurious. It had manifested the noblest status.

On the soft gold silk couch, an outstandingly beautiful woman languidly half-leaned on top of it. She faintly squinted her eyes, resembling the imperial imposing manner.

“How did it go?”

“Empress, this subordinate is incapable of completing the task…The assassins that were sent out had failed…” The person who responded was the Empress’s trusted aide, Guang Feng.

“Pa—” The palm of the Empress’s hand fiercely slammed against the table. The pair of eyes suddenly opened, emitting a strong sense of anger: “A group of useless things. You guys can’t even settle a small Long YuTian, what’s the point of Ben Gong cultivating you guys?”

The assassins that she had sent out all were top-notched. If even they can’t kill Long YuTian, then wouldn’t the first prince’s Emperor throne, her son, be in danger?

“Empress, this subordinate wants to atone for his crimes. This subordinate had watched from far away and saw that originally Wangye, by himself, had already been in a disadvantageous position. Soon, the task would’ve been accomplished but who knew Chen Wang suddenly appeared and messed up our plans so…” Guang Feng watched as the Empress became furious and he kneeled on the group with a thump.

“Long MuChen…It’s him again!” The Empress’s eyes were slightly squinted, revealing a deep malicious and scheming look.

This Chen Wang had long withdrawn from the battle of the Emperor’s throne yet he hadn’t settled down at the border area fighting his battle but instead he decided to return back to the capital. Plus, he had displayed the intentions of assisting the third Wangye more than one occasions, in public and in the dark. It was clear that he wanted to make things difficult for her – this Empress!

If this person wasn’t rid of, then it will cause endless trouble in the future.
