Ji Fengyan raised her brows but remained silent.

Thinking he had a chance, Situ Ba continued. “I am the General of the Green Nightmare Army, which you know holds a high status within the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon. I can honestly tell you that my current position is not by my sole efforts, but I also owe it to the Emperor’s favors. Do you think I am really so audacious, getting rid of the other Generals so easily? Ji Fengyan, you are too naïve! Do you believe that if you kill me, His Majesty will immediately pass down a decree—you, your soldiers and your Ji family will all suffer then.”

Everybody was thunderstruck by Situ Ba’s statement.

He had spoken vaguely, but his hints made everything as clear as day.

His heartless murdering was not just of his own accord, but was discreetly backed by the Emperor...

“Situ Ba, don’t spout nonsense. Dragging His Majesty’s name into the mud for your own reprehensible actions, what are you trying to do!” A Blaze Army officer lambasted Situ Ba’s nefarious intentions.

Ji Fengyan looked at Situ Ba with no expression. “Do you think it will scare me just because you mentioned His Majesty?”

Situ Ba quietly swallowed before rousing himself. “General Ji, I believe you are a smart person. You should well know, all teams who collaborated with the Green Nightmare Army had lost their Terminator Generals. Once or twice might be a coincidence, but this has happened dozens of times over the many years that I have led the Green Nightmare Army. His Majesty is no fool—if not for his permission, would I have acted so boldly?”

Situ Ba had really felt Ji Fengyan’s desire to kill. As much as he didn’t want to reveal all this, he had to spill it all out to preserve his own life.

Situ Ba’s words sounded outrageous. However, anyone with a brain could tell whether he spoke the truth after some serious consideration.

Even before this, Linghe and the rest had always suspected why the Emperor did not seem to notice Situ Ba’s destructive actions. They had thought it was because the Emperor was unaware of the real situation, but thinking of it now, it appeared that...

“It was His Majesty who wanted you to do it?” Ji Fengyan narrowed her eyes. “My father, Yang Shun and me—it was all His Majesty’s intent?”

Situ Ba hesitated a moment before replying, “Not you. Killing you was Eldest Princess’ idea.”

In this way, he was discreetly acknowledging that His Majesty was involved in Ji Yun’s and Yang Shun’s deaths.

Ji Fengyan was well aware that the Eldest Princess wanted her dead. The moment she saw Zhan Fei, Ji Fengyan knew the Eldest Princess would make use of this battle to do her harm. But... Ji Fengyan never imagined that it was the Emperor who had intended to kill off Yang Shun.

How could this be?

Ji Fengyan frowned. Yang Shun was humble and not at all arrogant despite his many achievements. To an Emperor, it would be a relief to have such a loyal General. But... the Emperor wanted to get rid of Yang Shun. Why?

Suddenly...

Yang Shun’s demonic transformation floated across Ji Fengyan’s mind. She arrived at a startling conjecture.

Why had Yang Shun turned into a demon? And after his demonic transformation, he had lost all sense of self. Meanwhile, the Emperor had intentionally wanted to kill off Yang Shun—could it be...

Ji Fengyan’s face suddenly became very grim.
