Chapter 118

Junero's departure didn't have much of an effect on Sui Xiong.

Though this "scholar emperor" hadn't been emperor of the Orcs for very long, he'd accumulated a great amount of power. On top of that, rather than dying, he'd done the equivalent of ascending to the heavens in broad daylight.
