The Sacred Dragon Emperor promptly raised his head when he heard someone approaching. The moment he noticed Ji Fengyan beside Long Yue, his eyes filled with shock and he instinctively struggled against his restraints. He tried to pounce forward with a howl, as if wanting to grasp at his ultimate chance of survival. However, his four limbs remained bound by the chains, cutting off his only lifeline.
He looked like he wanted to say something but only emitted raspy howls.
A flash of self-satisfaction flashed across Long Yue's eyes as he observed the crazed Sacred Dragon Emperor. He took a small step back as if disdainful of the stench from the cell.
"Brother, I never expected you to do something so preposterous. You never got along well with the Grand Tutor, but to try to poison him at his birthday banquet was one step too far. If the guards did not discover it in time, those officials would have also fallen victim to your poisoning."
