Capítulo 1814: Paid Off

"I only have one question."

Zhao Xuan walked slowly over to Nangong Tian. He stood less than a meter away from him and asked while staring at him, "Who are Chu Yuan and I to you?"

The Chu Yuan he mentioned was one of Royal's three Sovereigns, Sovereign Yuan.

"We're… friends," Nangong Tian spoke after a moment of hesitation.

"Friends?!" Zhao Xuan scoffed when he heard that answer. "So to you, friends are to be betrayed?!"

"Perhaps I'm more selfish." Nangong Tian looked sincere. "I'm sorry."

"Do you know what you are to me?" Zhao Xuan asked while staring at Nangong Tian.

Nangong Tian said nothing.

"Before you showed up here today, you were my teacher, brother and good friend. You were the person that I admired most in my life… The reason I could become one of Royal's three Sovereigns was because I have always treated you as my role model and made you my life goal and inspiration."
