"Have I awakened?" Li Huowang, in the midst of darkness, abruptly opened his eyes, looking around anxiously.
When he realized he was lying in his home in the Capital City, not on a sickbed, he finally took a long breath of relief.
Li Huowang struggled to sit up, shook his somewhat groggy head vigorously, and the world before him instantly began to shake violently.
Ever since that day he returned to Da Liang from Da Qi and found himself in a stifling woodshed, Li Huowang had gone straight to the Astrological Bureau to report the matter of the Ren Wang's secret communications with the Dharma Sect.
As expected, the reaction of the Astrological Bureau was within his expectations. When Li Huowang learned from Nan Gong that the Ren Wang's assignment had already been taken over by someone else, he knew Ji Lin's task was essentially complete, and all that remained was to wait.
