Dugu Chen's lips curved into a smile, a devilish gleam in his eyes as he spoke with a hint of fascination, "Are you surprised to see me?"
The Hidden Guard and the men in black all dropped their weapons, taking out flint stones from their bosoms and lightly striking them against the Fire Starter. As they threw it towards the yard outside, the Hidden Guard knew that Prince Mei would not let him go, and if he failed, the Emperor would not spare him either. It was better to die together than suffer that fate. Smiling at Dugu Chen, he said, "I didn't expect you to be so lucky, but it's a pity, you will eventually disappear into this night." His smile widened as he spoke.
"Is that so? Unfortunately, you must be disappointed," he replied with a faint smile, raising an eyebrow and looking down on him disdainfully.
