An Tianyi’s eyes rolled, glowing with the ill intent of a weasel greeting a chicken:
"My sixth brother, tonight's events were quite sudden. Why don't we spend the night in conversation to dispel this lingering gloom?"
An Tianyi waved his hand lightly, and new dark guards emerged from the shadows around him. They encircled Fei Qingsu, making it clear that he was not to leave. The windows and doors were bolted shut. In the dim candlelight, An Tianyi’s face was buried in shadow. Strangely, there was not a single guard near Fei Qingsu; his own protectors seemed to have vanished into thin air.
An Tianyi’s eyes gleamed with triumph. *Look at this,* he thought. *No matter how mysterious you are, I am the Crown Prince, and I have plenty of men at my disposal. Your own guards have likely abandoned you.*
