Lei Chen suppressed the venomous look in his and asked in a gentle voice: "What is the matter?"
"Your Highness! Fan Jin from the Zephyr Academy came here with a message saying that the disciples from the Zephyr Academy would like to pay Your Highness a visit tonight." The voice of the guard said as it sounded from outside.
Lei Chen's eyes widened and he immediately replied: "Tell him they are welcome anytime."
[He still stood a chance!]
"You still have not given up?" Suddenly, a male voice soothing as water rang out from behind the screen at the back of Lei Chen's seat.
Lei Chen stiffened up instantly and without even turning his head back, he said: "What are you here for? Persuading me to give it up? Why should I give up! ? I am nobody's puppet, and even more so, not a replacement for anybody! I am just fighting for a way out for myself, what is wrong with that! ?"
The man behind the screen sighed softly, sounding wearily helpless.
