"Is this about your brother?" Amon asked.
"Brother?" Huang San turned to Amon.
"His brother was the soldier who oversaw the excavation site where we uncovered the mural that contradicted the Temple of Divinity's teaching," Amon explained. "He was killed when the rebels attacked that site."
"My brother, Xu Shi, is my only kin," Xu Bao uttered. "I will never forgive the rebels. I have used every chance to hunt them down. But as a soldier, I cannot go as I please. That's why when I heard the broadcast about His Highness Huang San's intention, I immediately requested the transfer."
Xu Bao turned to Huang San and asked, "Your Highness, you are serious about wiping them out, aren't you?"
"As serious as I am to take the throne," Huang San answered.
"So, the rumor is true. You swore to take out the rebels for a chance to join the Ancient Ascension Trial."
