"You serve as my dog, that is merely a mint candy, but if you renege, it will not be as simple as a mint candy," Gu Shanhai remarked as he watched the actions of the struggling Wind Element Holy Realm Warrior gradually weakening. Upon death, the entire body decayed, leaving behind only an armored skeleton.
The entire palace fell into a chilling silence, all the nobles dared not breathe heavily, only cautiously breathing, lest they make any noise that would attract Gu Shanhai's attention.
This move was called "killing the chicken to scare the monkey." He actually didn't plan to kill the nobles. If he did, who would he demand such enormous wealth from? It was better to let them offer it willingly.
Besides, most of the nobles might be well-fed but engaged in constant intrigue; however, there were also capable people among them.
For instance, the Kingdom Guardian, that Wind Element Holy Realm Warrior and the Fire Element Holy Realm Mage, both were of noble descent.
