Gao Jinglun felt a headache thinking about this, a severe headache. It was impossible to report to the Holy Land that the Artificer had poured his heart and soul into crafting the Sky Ladder, only for it to fail. It was too much of a letdown for the Artificer's efforts.
Whether to report it or not is another matter; he has not yet decided. Should he report it, he is unsure of the consequences he would have to bear. He has no confidence in knowing what they might be, and it could either be very severe punishment or perhaps none at all.
Every possibility exists.
Ling Tianyu thwarted his plans. Out of the three treasures, two were missing, yet Gao Jinglun came out as the beneficiary, as the Fire Supreme Ring was on Ling Tianyu, who was the entrusted person. To speak selfishly, he could completely claim the Fiery Forbidden Land as his own.
Consequently, the three treasures naturally would belong to him; there is no doubt about that. The one at a loss is not Gao Jinglun.
