Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel 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 scared sh*tless; 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 fell into panic. "The Heavenly Earth Altar is a sacred place. Why didn't you report this when you found them here a year ago?"

Kevin was utterly dumbfounded. When he caught the couple here a year ago, he thought they were there having a tryst. 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 death!" Kevin kowtowed nonstop. However, that did not placate the emperor’s fury!

"Get the sketch artist! I want their portraits drawn!" the New World Emperor yelled.

There was total silence; no one dared breathed heavily at all.

Flames of anger were burning in the eyes' of the New World Emperor. His expression twisted.

"Eldest Prince! Lead the royal guards and retrieve the Dzi bead for me! As for the Carter family, kill them all! Leave none of them alive!" the emperor yelled.

"Yes, Father!" the eldest prince answered as he knelt.

The eldest prince was the emperor's favorite son. He was still young, but he was already a Level Two Martial Emperor! He was most likely to succeed the throne in the future.

The emperor took a deep breath as he looked at Kevin and ordered coldly, "Kevin Lottway, your negligence in your duty has caused the loss of the Dzi bead. I hereby sentence you and your family to death by a thousand cuts! Guards!"

"Yes!" a few guards yelled as they went forward and dragged Kevin away.

"Your Majesty, please have mercy—" He did not finish his sentence before he passed out due to fear.
