"Does it not make sense?" Wu Tong slightly shook his head. "President Hong Yuan, I must say, I don't like hearing that. Dayan is a vassal state of our Yun Hao Empire, and as an envoy from the sovereign state, is there anything unreasonable about showing concern for a prodigy from a vassal state who feels aggrieved?"
Hong Yuan fell silent for a moment.
The threat implicit in those words, he had heard it.
The others gathered around had also perceived it.
Regret instantly appeared on their faces.
Before them, in the face of the power Lin Su demonstrated through Guardian Beast Co-operation, avarice had nearly driven them mad, and they had been eager to unearth the truth from this young man's lips.
Now, as Wu Tong openly courted Lin Su to join the Yun Hao Empire, they realized something very important.
Their prior actions had likely pushed Lin Su toward the Yun Hao Empire.
But now, whatever they said seemed too late.
All they could do was maintain their silence.
