"You still remember I'm your mother?" The woman in red asked coldly.
Frightened, Wuma Jun hurried to explain himself. Tears started falling down his cheeks. "Mother. What you said terrified me. The last thing I want is to fail you."
The woman in red had no patience for him. "The alliance has already broken into the city. It's time for you to show me what you've got. Don't let me down!"
Being ordered around by the woman nurtured Wuma Jun's secret grudge. On the surface, however, he still acted obediently, with the deepest love a son could show for his mother.
"I got it, Mother! I swear I won't disappoint you!"
Several days ago, this woman had appeared out of nowhere, claiming to be his late mother, Wang Guifei.
Wuma Jun hadn't bought it up front. Although he'd never met his mother, he knew that people were not supposed to come back from the dead.
