Lightning Is the Only Way

Chapter 574

Gravis went to the Mountain of Pride and stood before the Empress. "I'm ready to go," he said.

The Empress nodded. Then, she turned to the Grand Elder, who stood right beside her. "I'll leave everything up to you," she said.

The Grand Elder sighed. "I knew that this time would come, but I'm still not looking forward to it. This will be a pain."

"This was our deal," the Empress said coldly.

The Grand Elder sighed again. "I know, and I will keep my word. You've helped me for centuries. I guess now it's my time to help you."
