Before their eyes lay a grand hall, supported by eighteen dragon-carved pillars. A man in his thirties, clad in bright yellow attire with bushy eyebrows and large eyes, bore a majestic look as he strode to the foremost seat.
He bore a resemblance to the Emperor of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty—about five or six points of likeness.
"I pay my respects to the Second Prince."
Upon seeing the young man, Yun Zishu quickly bowed in reverence.
Gu Chen, witnessing this, also clasped his hands in a salute.
The Second Prince at the seat of honor watched this scene, his eyes imperceptibly narrowing for a moment, but they quickly returned to normal.
Walking through the inner palace, Gu Chen discovered that there were more than a dozen concealed auras just around this area, making him marvel at the strictness of the defense.
