Capítulo 404: Horrendous

Li Xueyue heard the protests before she saw the commotion. A knock echoed in their room, followed by a curt response from Yu Zhen. 

The doors opened as a group of men in black entered. Her eyebrows shot up at the sight of them, large and intimidating, much like their Commander.

"Your Highness, we have found the woman you've requested."

Li Xueyue thought only one man was sent out. Seeing the handful of them caught her off guard. She eyed the small circular sigel on their chest. It was unlike anything she had ever read or seen. 

"Who are they?" she whispered.

"My personal soldiers."

Li Xueyue tilted her head. Like private guards? She couldn't imagine someone like Yu Zhen needing any protection. Then again, he had more foes than friends. 

It put her heart at ease that taking his life would be much more difficult than people would've predicted. That is, if they dared to raise a sword against him.
