Wait!
The Northern Domain Prince's heart lurched, and a sense of foreboding rose within him. It seemed this misfortune was far from over.
Something was wrong. What else was wrong?
"Ugh~" Wang Fugui's face gradually turned deathly pale, as though his vitality and divine sense had been forcibly overdrawn. His entire body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground.
