Everlasting Immortal Firmament Book 08 Chapter 011: Wind Zombie Duke

The emperor’s study, Borderless Heavenly Capital:

Gu Hai sat behind a desk, perusing a report as Gu Qin stood in front.

Clack!

Gu Hai closed the report, his eyebrows knitting together in deep thought.

“Was this information sent by Gu Ming?” Gu Hai turned his gaze to Gu Qin.

Gu Qin nodded solemnly. “Father, Houqing has defected to Ji Dihong!”

Gu Hai elaborated, “In the past, he had to hide this ability, but now he doesn’t. If he controlled the sovereigns of all the imperial dynasties, what would happen?”

“Ah!” Gu Qin’s expression changed.

“Now, let’s expose Ji Dihong’s mind control to all the imperial dynasties, so they can be prepared,” Gu Hai said sternly.

“Yes!” Gu Qin agr
