Kil'jaeden was riddled with doubts. There was no way he could be convinced by just a few words.
But Lu Li's forceful attitude left him no room to argue.
He could only grit his teeth and go find the high-ranking demon Aura.
When Aura heard that Prince Sargeras wished to see him, he did not ask why. He simply followed Kil'jaeden onto the return journey to Flower Willow Grace Court.
Along the way, Kil'jaeden was so nervous that he sent Lu Li message after message.
He was just short of reporting their return progress in real time.
After finally reaching the territory, Kil'jaeden trembled as he led Aura toward the place where they had met before.
He kept praying that Li Yun and Evelina were ready, hoping that whatever disguise plan they had come up with would work.
But the first thing he saw upon entering nearly made him faint on the spot!
Li Yun and Evelina were still where they had been, and the two corpses still lay on the floor.
They had not moved an inch!
What the hell were these two ancestors trying to do?
Were they just dropping the act and laying everything out in the open?!
What happened to "guaranteed to be fine"?!
Were they seriously just going to confess and hope for leniency?!!
Blood rushed to Kil'jaeden's head, and his vision swam.
But just as he was about to say something, Aura beside him awkwardly averted his gaze.
He looked...
Almost a little shy?
"Your Highness, it seems you still have matters to attend to here. How about I come back after you're finished?"
Aura spoke with some embarrassment.
Kil'jaeden's pupils constricted, and his right hand instinctively rested on the weapon at his waist.
His gaze quickly flicked toward Lu Li on the throne
