It was him!
The instant the old man appeared, everyone except Lu Xuan was utterly shocked.
It was actually this man!
The old man wore a black grand palace robe, smooth and immaculate, without a single crease.
His hands resembled withered wood weathered by a thousand years of wind and frost, his knuckles protruding, blue veins bulging.
Wrinkles crisscrossed his pale old face like ravines, while his sunken eyes revealed a measure of murkiness and the vicissitudes of age.
Leng Yuanjun, Chief Eunuch of the Internal Affairs Bureau—a Martial Realm expert at minor completion of the Divine Mansion Realm, infinitely close to major completion—was an old monster who had lived for more than five hundred years.
"Ancestor!"
At the sight of him, the few Internal Affairs Bureau eunuchs who had previously been unharmed turned deathly pale with panic.
Then, they abruptly fell to their knees and desperately kowtowed to Leng Yuanjun.
Leng Yuanjun treated the people behind him, who were frantically banging their heads against the ground, as though they were air and ignored them completely.
His expression was calm, his body slightly stooped. His eyes stared straight at Lu Xuan, and his voice was astonishingly cold.
"Division Head Lu, acting so recklessly is a blatant disregard for the laws decreed by Your Majesty!"
After saying this, Leng Yuanjun was like a completely different person from the man who had been so tense moments ago.
It was as if that nervous expression had never existed.
In response to Leng Yuanjun's words, the purple light in Lu Xuan's eyes suddenly blazed. The void around them began to tremble again.
That intangible space was like a fragile mirror.
At any moment, it might fail to withstand the Heaven and Earth Power spilling from Lu Xuan's body and shatter with a thunderous crash.
