Immediately, a few divine soldiers scurried into the main hall and dragged out Yuriel, whose face turned pale as his entire body quaked.
"Lord General, please have mercy on me! Have mercy!"
However, hearing his plea, Master Magaera kept a straight face and did not respond.
A few minutes later, Yuriel's scream came from outside the hall, and in an instant, the entire hall fell into silence.
In the main hall, other generals stood in silence. They could feel Master Magaera's rage. He would not have ordered Yuriel to be killed had not had that much rage.
For a moment, the main hall was in pin-drop silence.
Master Magaera sat on the throne with a solemn face, and deep down, he was fuming.
'I, Master Magaera, had been fooled? What a disgrace! Who on earth is this enemy who dares to impersonate a divine soldier?'
Master Magaera sat there and thought for a long time, but he could not think of anyone.
"Report!" Suddenly, a divine soldier scurried over, seemingly excited. "Lord General, we've found the entrance of the secret tunnel!"
Master Magaera quickly stood up with a straight face. After what had happened, he figured the people of the Hidden Hero Sect had escaped.
"Go take a look," said Master Magaera softly as he, too, rushed out of the hall, so much so that a dozen generals could barely keep up with him.
Quickly, they came to the side hall and spotted the entrance in a corner northwest. There were already many divine soldiers who had entered to investigate.
Master Magaera walked up and asked coldly, "What's the situation in there?"
A divine soldier who exited the secret tunnel quickly answered, "It's rather spacious down there, but it's empty."
