Chapter 1125 - The Second Score (1) (1/2)
Making such a move against the Wolf Smoke Regiment, and just before the big war…
Several people could already guess the Emperor’s motive, but they wisely kept their mouths shut.
On the very day the Wolf Smoke Regiment set off for the battle, the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon soldiers had already captured their families. They were currently being imprisoned in a camp within the kingdom.
The moment the Wolf Smoke Regiment displayed any signs of deviancy, every single one of their family members would be killed.
The Emperor felt slightly better after hearing that answer. His foremost goal was not to use the family members to restrain the Wolf Smoke Regiment, but to use them as blackmail. He wanted Ji Fengyan to know what was it like to have her own people turn into her enemies.
On one side was Ji Fengyan, while on the other were their own families. The Emperor wanted to force the Wolf Smoke Regiment and Ji Fengyan to be at each other’s throats.
He wanted Ji Fengyan to have a taste of what it was like being slaughtered by a troop which she had personally established.
“Keep a close watch on them.” The Emperor ordered.
“Yes!”
Just as the Emperor laid this worry to rest, a small white speck flew into the grand hall.
At first, no one noticed that tiny white speck at all. But it drifted into the center of the hall and flew straight towards the Emperor.
The Emperor was slightly startled when he noticed the white speck. Focusing on it, he realized it was a paper crane which appeared to be flying towards him even though there was no external force propelling it. With a start, he jumped up from his seat. A nearby guard noticed the Emperor’s reaction and instantly charged forward, piercing that strange paper crane with the tip of his sword!
The paper crane was cut in half and fell down to the floor about three meters away from the Emperor. The Emperor narrowed his eyes.
