Crackling sounds, a loud bang, the Treasure Basin exploded entirely, fragments scattering everywhere, and a wisp of firecracker smoke with an indescribable scent spread out.
It turned out that there were actually some firecrackers hidden at the bottom of the Treasure Basin, or perhaps the Treasure Basin had been smeared with some flammable phosphorus. As soon as the fire caught it, it exploded like oil meeting flames.
The sudden change left everyone in the main hall stunned.
As the Grey Shadow, who initially kicked the scriptures from Emperor Yan's hands, gave a loud shout, Eunuch Lu reacted immediately, shouting "Protect the emperor," and the guards surrounded Emperor Yan.
Emperor Yan inhaled the firecracker smoke deeply, his abdomen suddenly stirred, and he spat out a mouthful of hot blood, collapsing weakly.
"Your Majesty." Eunuch Lu shouted sharply: "Protect the emperor, protect the emperor."
