Why So Cruel?

Xia Hong's expression shifted again. His heart pounded like a drum, but the resentment in his eyes only deepened. Yet, he refused to swear the oath, as if the mere suggestion was a grave humiliation.

Seeing this, Luis turned to Zhou Mucheng. "General Zhou, what is the punishment for slandering one's superior in the coalition?"

Zhou Mucheng, ever economical with words, replied, "Dismissal and investigation."

Luis nodded, casually picking up a spirit stone from one of the boxes. He inspected it with a smirk.

"Tsk tsk. This box alone must hold more than 100,000 spirit stones. And there are fifteen of them... General Xia, you sure have a big appetite."

Xia Hong's face turned deathly pale. A flicker of despair filled his eyes.

Fifteen boxes... That's over a million spirit stones.

Execution.
