"Stop your mockery. You're here to witness my downfall and relish your triumph," Wangjie asserted, his annoyance evident. "So, what's it like to suddenly wear the cloak of a hero?" he questioned.

"Why don't you get it that you are good at being the Governor? Why do you wish to stay as my rival? You might lose your inner peace while fighting with me," he explained.
