Read The Ultimate Husband by Skykissing wolf Chapter 852 – “Guards! Guards!”
The New World Emperor yelled hysterically. The Dzi bead was on the crown that had belonged to his father! How could it have been stolen?
The Heavenly Earth Altar was a sacred place; no one would usually dare to enter it. When the royal guards heard the emperor’s shouts, they thought something had happened. They rushed toward the altar, but they were baffled.
They were not blind; they could all see that the Dzi bead was missing!
“Who is in charge of guarding the altar? Come out now!” the New World Emperor yelled frantically. He had never been so furious since he had ascended the throne.
One of the royal guard leaders, Kevin Lottway, walked out amongst the crowd. He was the one responsible for Heavenly Earth Altar.
Thud!
Kevin was bewildered; he trembled as he knelt on the floor.
“You! Where did the Dzi bead go? Speak!” The emperor was furious; he had a murderous aura.
“Your Majesty-” Kevin sweated profusely; his body was wet. He tried to recall, so he was silent for a few minutes. Then he said, “Your Majesty, I just remembered! A year ago, a man and woman snuck into the Heavenly Earth Altar. Perhaps they stole the Dzi bead-“
“A year ago?!” The New World Emperor’s face was as dark as dirt. “The Heavenly Earth Altar is a sacred place. Why did you not report this when they snuck into the altar a year ago?”
Kevin was utterly dumbfounded. When he caught the couple as they snuck into the Heavenly Altar a year ago, he thought they were there on a clandestine date. Therefore he did not report it to the emperor. How could he have guessed that they would steal the bead?
“Your Majesty, I’m so sorry! I should be sentenced to d***h!” Kevin continued to berate himself. However, that did not placate the emperor!
“Get the sketch artist! I want their portraits drawn!” the New World Emperor yelled.
There was total silence; no one dared breathed at all.
