Madam Guo'an, typically a person of timidity, found herself consumed by anger on this particular day, her fury driving her to the brink of a falling-out with Qiao Mu. With the secret guard's reminder, she couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
However, she had already issued the command. Repeating it within the next three seconds would surely tarnish her reputation as Madam Guo'an.
Fiercely, she pivoted to face the secret guard and shouted in frustration, "Are you incapable of heeding my orders?"
A veiled threat lurked behind her intense and malevolent gaze. Their very lives were under her control.
It was essential to remember that, when they had become secret guards, they had willingly surrendered a fragment of their souls to her. This irrevocably bound them to her, regardless of any future achievements, even if they ascended to the divine realm or transcendent divine realm. They remained, and would forever be, Madam Guo'an's subservient slaves.
