The Blood Emperor appeared abruptly.
His tall figure slowly approached Wen Jiang.
Xing Wu suddenly leaned in and whispered in Wen Jiang's ear, "He succeeded."
Then, Xing Wu's figure also vanished without a trace, presumably to complete the trade.
The Blood Emperor was still clad in all white. Compared to before, his demeanor was even more refined and elegant, and he managed a leisurely smile upon seeing Wen Jiang. "Are you alright?"
Yet, a hint of impatience flickered between his brows.
He returned quite quickly.
Presumably, after realizing someone was gone and thinking of something, he swiftly returned to Ceylon City.
Only to coincidentally stumble upon the Mech King attempting to make a move on Helena.
Was it mere coincidence?
Wen Jiang offered a noncommittal smile. "Thank you."
The Mech King, after all, was someone who made money for him. To kill the man so directly... the Blood Emperor's motives were truly elusive.
