Chapter 1365: A Promise

"What?!" Dustin's words directly struck Ethan like a bolt of lightning, and his face turned paler.

The Purple City Uprising from ten years ago was still a forbidden topic that nobody dared to mention. The death of the West Lucozia Queen was even more of an unsolved mystery for many years.

This "unsolved mystery" wasn't because it couldn't be solved but because nobody dared to solve it. Even the all-powerful West Lucozia King was eventually forced to suppress the matter. Who would dare to truly investigate the truth?

Back then, the royal court had repeatedly promised to uncover the real culprits but had ultimately let it slide. This alone proved that the mastermind behind the Purple City Uprising had immense power, perhaps even involving the supreme imperial authority.

While the Langford family was influential and wealthy, they were still insignificant in the face of the high-ranking nobles and royals. So, when Ethan heard Dustin's request, he was shocked, worried, and fearful.

The waters here ran too deep. If the Langford family got involved, they could face irreparable consequences at any moment.

"Mr. Ethan, there's no need to be so nervous. I'm not asking you to go to your doom. Why are you so afraid?" Dustin tempered his sharpness, smiled gently, and returned to his calm demeanor.
