Chapter 1023: Torture

What on earth was happening? Yue Taichu tried his best to remain calm, wanting to dispatch the Royal Palace Guards and the Imperial Court Army.

But there was no time, nor the opportunity.

Someone had come.

Or rather, the Guards and the Imperial Court Army had themselves turned traitor. They had followed someone from somewhere, slaughtering all the way here, leaving corpses strewn everywhere.

The blood formed rivers.

And this palace had already been sealed off; no one could get out.

Not until this person appeared before the palace.

His robes soaked with blood, drenched.

Beneath the hem, blood drops were falling.

Blood was also on his face. Standing before the hall, he didn't cross the threshold but rather smiled slightly at Yue Taichu.

"Many crimes punishable by death can only be judged by the Triple Cabinet of the Inner Court. Without me present, how will these crimes be adjudicated?"
