Public uproar swept the realm-easier to shake Mount Tai than Pacification Commissioner Jia!
The Peak of the Thirty-Six Hanging Mountains was crowned with palaces.
At the summit of the Northern Commandant Office.
Xuanyuan Zhigu slowly entered the office.
At that moment, he felt as though he had plunged into an ice cavern, a bone-piercing chill surrounding him.
Lord Jiang sat quietly in a Grand Secretary Chair. His usually stern, imposing face was savagely contorted, and a searing flame seemed to flicker in his abyss-dark eyes.
