As Wu Long went through the garden and arrived at the door Butler Bang opened it before him and Old Yen who was inside watching over the Imperial Prince stood at attention.
"Did you feed him the fasting pills I gave you?"
"Yes, I did as instructed"
Wu Long asked Old Yen and the latter nodded to which Wu Long smiled with satisfaction. Talismans flew out of his hands to place themselves around the chair Nie Changsheng was sitting on. They formed a pattern on the floor and another one on the ceiling, as the prince's eyes widened with fear. He understood that his hour of retribution finally began.
Wu Long deliberately left him for long swaths of time, the sheer dread of this moment coming gave him gray hair. The agony he left him in was nothing in front of the fear he felt as time went on and on without knowing when Wu Long would walk in through that door.
