Not making favoritism obvious, keeping the balance in the harem…although Huan Yi never denied having favorites, he wouldn't give his lovers and subordinates enough hints to figure out the actual ranking.
But at the moment, it couldn't be more obvious.
Huan Yi didn't repeat himself, and he didn't have to. The words spoke for themselves—trapping Taotie in a mix of infinite happiness and overwhelming regret.
'Was it me? Was it because of me? Did master lure and kill Hundun himself because…he was afraid I couldn't do it?
Master, I know you enough to tell that you relish the thrill of the unknown and the subversion of your expectations. So, you didn't kill Hundun because you were afraid of what he could achieve. But rather...of what I couldn't do.
Enjoy!
