Tomb Tower of the Legendary Beast

Gonggong Liu, the leader of the elders of the imperial eunuchs within the palace, was assigned to guard the throne hall and was the only one giving out permission for those seeking an audience with the emperor. He was one of a few people the emperor confided in, along with one of the five people, in this capital city, allowed to know the identity of the mysterious clan.

“How was it, Your Majesty?” Gonggong Liu asked, cupping his hands before Xuanwu Chen.

“Ah… I’m seventy percent hopeful he is from the Leng Clan of the past, with his technique and clan symbol, he has clearly proven himself. Even so, I couldn’t read this kid’s mind at all. You may think I got him wrapped around my finger, but in reality, I couldn’t even reach out to him. It turned out he was the one running the show, controlling me to get what he wanted.” Xuanwu Chen let out a big sigh once again, shaking his head in desperation.

“Was he that cunning?” Gonggong Liu could not believe his ears.
