Another Ally

To King Hong who had seen minster Fu Delun for a long time, he knew the nature of the man. He also knew that the man would have never acted like this before. A sudden change like this could only be attributed to a few things.

Either it was that the man was an imposter or that he was being controlled, just like Lin Mu had said. 

"King Hong, perhaps we should still confirm this first." Adviser Liu asked.

"Go ahead, check the royal repository." King Hong replied before looking at Lin Mu and the other two disciples. "I believe you all can hold him?" he asked.

It was now that Lin Mu spoke.

"Oh, he won't move anymore." Lin Mu said as he moved towards Fu Delun and pushed him back with one finger.

~THUD~

The man helplessly fell on his back and did not react at all. His expression was stuck in a strange daze and his eyes were glazed over.
