This made Zhi Li extremely uneasy. The main reason he dared to assassinate the King and forcefully ascend the throne was because of the support from the Dragon Temple.
After successfully assassinating the King, he immediately received an audience with Luo Ge.
Guided by a senior Judge, Zhi Li went to meet Luo Ge. However, rather than going to the main hall of Luo Ge's Tribunal, they went to Fu Lingxi's castle.
It seemed the rumors were true: the relationship between Luo Ge and Fu Lingxi was indeed ambiguous.
In the underground chamber of Fu Lingxi's castle, Zhi Li met Luo Ge, a figure whose status was on par with the King.
The stunningly beautiful Fu Lingxi stood behind him, dutifully making tea.
"Luo Ge, I have never met you before," was Luo Ge's first sentence.
"Of course," Zhi Li replied, "I am currently in the southern border town. Only tomorrow will I learn of the King's demise and then enter the capital. Naturally, you have never seen me."
