"Oh?" The South Peak Emperor chuckled and set down the memorial in his hand, "So the child is the evil demon causing disturbance at Dragon Tiger Mountain? You could have dealt with this matter yourselves, why bring him to me?"
"Emperor, it was not an evil demon that caused the disturbance at Dragon Tiger Mountain," Xu Jinghui steeled himself and said, "This matter is of great importance, I implore Your Majesty to dismiss everyone else."
The South Peak Emperor glanced at them and said, "Speak, there's no harm in that."
Xu Jinghui gritted his teeth, knelt on one knee, reached out to pull off the black robe from Duge, and pushed him forward: "Your Majesty, in lowliness, I come bearing a treasure."
"A treasure?"
The South Peak Emperor looked at Duge again.
Duge blinked at him mischievously, his eyes darting around like those of a naughty child.
