"I also managed to gather a piece of news," Harper said, gritting her teeth. "The real Worship Ceremony will be held in five days.
Today's ceremony was just their display of prayers before the real one takes place."
Hearing that, Matthew scowled slightly. "So, there was something amiss with the invitation letter sent to the Bright Dynasty."
"Or, maybe there was nothing wrong with the invitation letter. Maybe someone deliberately made us come here sooner than we
should have," Harper muttered. "I guess the Wonder Kingdom's and the Great Jade Kingdom's envoys will arrive in a couple of
days. I wonder who the Great Jade Kingdom will send as their envoy leader."
"It can't be Rolando," said Matthew firmly.
Harper agreed with him. "As the emperor of the Great Jade Kingdom, Rolando would not risk his life. I wonder who he will send

Becky's face turned red in embarrassment when she heard that. She turned to look at Matthew. But he was watching Harper as
she played with the snake on the table. He didn't even bother to take a glance at her.
Gritting her teeth, Becky stood up and turned to leave. With one last deep simmering look at Harper full of murderous intent, she
finally left.
Suddenly, Harper reached out and pinched the area above the snake's heart. "You're such a naughty little thing," She scolded.
"Even though you've fallen into my hands, you still don't know who has control over your life. Do you still think you're king of the
