"Fang Li pays her respects to the Fourth Young Master."
At the Great Blade Association branch, Ye Lin sat in the seat of honor, watching Fang Li bow before him.
"Rise."
Ye Lin gave a light wave of his hand.
Fang Li slowly straightened.
Several gazes around them fell upon Fang Li.
"Thank you, Fourth Young Master, for helping me out of this predicament. Fang Li will surely lead the entire Sacred Heaven Dynasty in following your lead."
Looking at Ye Lin, Fang Li immediately declared her loyalty.
Now, only the man before her could help her—help her ascend to that position, help her fulfill the ambitions in her heart.
"Mm. What are your plans next?"
Ye Lin tapped the table and nodded lightly.
Loyalty?
Ye Lin did not care whether she was loyal or not. He only needed to take the benefits.
After all, if she was loyal, she would be Emperor.
If she was not loyal, she would still be Emperor.
So whether she was loyal or not was completely useless.
As long as the Great Blade Association remained and the Heavenly Blade Sage was still around, what could Fang Li do even if she were disloyal?
"Please help me, Fourth Young Master. Help me take the Emperor's throne."
"And then?"
Ye Lin raised an eyebrow.
"Then I will purge the court, bring my grandfather's former subordinates back into the court, and restore the glory of the Sacred Heaven Dynasty from back then."
"The Sacred Heaven Dynasty was founded by my grandfather with his own hands. As his granddaughter, I will reclaim everything that belonged to him."
Fang Li's voice was crisp, and within that crispness lay a thread of unwavering resolve.
"Take this. It will make it easier for us to contact each other in the future."
