1672 The Golden Rolls 4

The King looked at Gu Chaoyan quietly, waiting for what she was going to say next.

Seeing that the King was not responding to her, Gu Chaoyan continued. “Shadow Door is already guarding the civilians in the capital, whether or not you are going to send out any forces from the court.”

Having said that, Gu Chaoyan turned around and left.

The Shadow Door?

The Shadow Door was there!

The news broke out in the court, triggering everyone to talk about it.

The King staggered unsteadily, but when De Fu was about to help him, the King put his hands on the table, supporting himself with complete focus. He coughed constantly, with blood spilling from his mouth. The King wiped it away with a handkerchief, and when he saw the blood, his eyes widened.

De Fu also realized that something wasn’t right. He went up to hold the King under his arms, asking, “My King, should you dismiss the session?”

The King nodded, urgently said something, got up and left.

The King was in bad health, but the ministers and officers should not know about it, especially under such an occasion like today.

The Shadow Door had emerged from the darkness into broad daylight. They were involving themselves with what was happening in the capital.

Nothing would matter when the Shadow Door was just a small place, but things were different today. The Shadow Door was an organization that the court was very afraid of. If they got involved with capital affairs, the court would be emptied out from inside.

He had made a mistake. He had really made a mistake.

He should not have left the monsters alone and threatened Gu Chaoyan.

The threat failed, and all that came after seemed to be a great loss.

The King panicked.

“Bring Elder Qianji Elderly Man from Piaomiao Pavilion here. I need to speak with him!” the King said to De Fu.

De Fu was skeptical, but he did as he was told.

The King panted uneasily.

Elder Qianji came in straight from the main hall.

He sat down with a dark face.

“Elder, what should we do now? My throne is being threatened!” the King said, sounding very regretful!

“You can’t even deal with a young girl! Your throne is obviously going to be threatened, sooner or later!” Elder Qianji said unhappily, “We have come to where we are today. We must force her to give us the Golden Rolls! You must not hide behind the curtains!”

The King felt anxious.

“Let’s drop the Golden Rolls for the moment!”

“Then we are done with the pills as well.” Elder Qianji said quietly.

“No way!” The King shouted excitedly. He had come to where he was, and was soon going to be immortal. He could not stop taking the pills that could make him live forever. “I will think about the Golden Rolls, but you have to help me. Shadow Door… it is the biggest threat!”

The Shadow Door? What kind of school was it so he was so afraid of it.

“I will help you with Shadow Door, but we must get the Golden Rolls within five days, or we are done!” Elder Qianji said, also giving the King pressure.

The King’s head was buzzing, but he was sure about his goal of becoming immortal.

He was going to work on it.

Gu Chaoyan cared about Lord Huai, did she?

Then they would make a deal with her using Lord Huai!
