Bab 1242: The Double Pupils

After settling the Martial Outlaw Gang, Wang Wei summoned all his new subordinates. He sat on a throne in the middle of a room, with Mongke and his wife on his right and the Flame Blacksmith on his left. He looked at everyone else, but his gaze did not immediately focus on the second prince but on the Poison and Flesh Demon, who were fine after being rescued.

"You should understand that it's not a good look for you two to be captured on the first task I assigned you, right?"

"We understand," the Flesh Demon bowed, accepting this reprimand. Meanwhile, the Poison Demoness felt this was unfair given the situation; however, she also apologized.

"This is your first failure, and there were extenuating circumstances, so I'll let you off with a verbal warning," Wang Wei continued. "However, all of you must understand what is at stake. We are about to fight a war to end an era, so I don't need to remind you what failures will mean for us or anyone we care about."
