The Emperor understood immediately and nodded solemnly to express his gratitude to Yan Luoluo. However, Yan Luoluo merely waved a hand dismissively, a trace of impatience in her gaze: "Get your people out of here right now. If a fight breaks out shortly, I won't have the leisure to protect these mortals."
The Emperor of Qingyun Kingdom proved to be a sensible man. With a grand sweep of his arm, he commanded: "Everyone, evacuate immediately!" Without a moment's hesitation, he took the lead and turned to leave. The guards hurried to shield the citizens as they retreated in a flurry. In the blink of an eye, the execution ground was left with only Yan Luoluo's party, the old man claiming to be the Azure Dragon, and the unconscious Mùróng Xiāo.
Once the onlookers had departed, Yan Luoluo leisurely took measure of the old man before her. The corners of her lips curved upward, yet her eyes held no trace of a smile: "How interesting. To my knowledge, the Azure Dragon Clan was wiped out by their own patriarch a myriad of years ago. From which rock did you pop out? Or could it be..." She deliberately drew out her tone, "that you're a complete fraud?"
