"An Xiangdong, what is going on here?"

Lan Xi gripped his military knife tightly as he got off the vehicle, immediately positioning himself protectively in front of Zhou Zheng. He glared at the man who had brought them here, his voice barely able to contain his fury.

An Xiangdong seemed unfazed by Lan Xi's shouting and instead looked at Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng, who had also stepped down from the vehicle, had been frowning deeply. He believed his father would never harm him, so the only explanation was that his father's trusted guard had gone rogue. But Zhou Zheng couldn't fathom how, given his father's formidable influence and position as the leader of Siege City, a trusted guard could betray him.
