"Stop!"
Having come to his senses, Li Lianying stared at the Dragon Spirit that had been forcibly stripped away, his eyes filled with terror and shock.
Why had the Empress Dowager arranged for him to protect Zai Tian, even though they were political enemies?
Because no matter how useless Zai Tian was, he was still the emperor of the Qing Court, the face of Great Qing!
He naturally carried a portion of the national fortune and Dragon Qi. It came with his status.
It could enhance his strength, and it was also a form of protection!
Back then, Taiping Dao had stolen part of the Qing Court's national fortune by killing the Qing emperor of that time in the Mission Space!
That had caused the late emperor to buckle beneath the weight of the national fortune ahead of time. He had passed away hastily before arranging matters for the future.
He had become one of the rare disgraces to sit on the imperial throne without entering that world.
And now, this scene was happening again!
And it was happening under his protection.
He would have to face the wrath of the Empress Dowager, perhaps even the entire imperial clan!
How could this be? How was this possible?!
"Ah! This servant..."
A mad look appeared on Li Lianying's face. Completely disregarding the disparity between them, he lunged straight at Xu Yue.
The emperor was already dead. Only by forcing his return through his own death would he have even the slightest chance to make amends!
Yet in the next moment, he discovered that the other man's palm was growing larger and larger, as if it were about to seize him within it.
No, it was not that the other man had grown larger. He himself was somehow becoming smaller and smaller!
