"It's time to cast the net!" Mo Wenshen rose from the execution platform and walked beyond the Dragon Slayer Platform alongside the Four Great Princes, the Bureau Chiefs of the Dragon Slaying Bureau and the Hanging Sword Bureau, and the eighteen first-rank Army Marquises.
Once he stepped outside, Mo Wenshen's expression turned strange. He had sensed that Fengbo Prefecture was exceptionally quiet, with none of the grand uproar he had expected from the encirclement of Lin Bai and Fu Qingshuang.
