Ji Fengyan and the Elders had bet on lives.
—In the end, it was Eldest Princess' life which had been lost.
The betting game had ended. Ji Fengyan no longer looked at the group of Elders but turned around to grin at the totally crestfallen Eldest Princess.
Having had her high hopes completely smashed after being raised to the skies, that expression was truly… too awesome.
"Your life has been forfeited in this bet." Ji Fengyan grinned at Eldest Princess. The evil-vanquishing sword glimmered in her hand.
Eldest Princess was totally stunned. That twisted expression was full of astonishment and anxiety. "No… no… how could I have lost…"
How did things turn out like this?
Where was all that hope?
The Eldest Princess never realized that she had endured all this time while clinging onto a hope that never existed.
Nothing could crush her more than this tremendous blow.
