Pursuit

Xiao Lin asked bluntly, "Where is his home? Surely he has family. We at least need to find them…"

"No, he doesn't have any family." The king looked up, looking at Xiao Lin as he said slowly, "His family died a few years ago."

Xiao Lin gaped, asking, "All of them died? Could they have faked their deaths to escape? How did they die?" He quickly regretted asking that question.

That was because the king calmly and coldly said, "His family died in a fight a few years ago. It was a conflict with you otherworlders; he himself only managed to survive thanks to my protection."

Xiao Lin was stunned, unsure what to say at that moment.

It was the king who waved his hand, saying, "It wasn't Dawn Academy, but Judge Academy from the north. However, your embassy did turn the other way when it happened." The king's subtle smile carried an unfiltered sense of mockery.
