The Emperor was silent for a few seconds. "Even so, that doesn't confirm the masked Beastman you mentioned is Fox Jue."
Hu Yan nodded. "That's true. That's why I had people investigate the events of that year. I discovered Fox Jue orchestrated the entire thing himself. His goal was to make everyone believe he would never wake up again. He was only in his early twenties back then. For him to devise such a thorough plan, do you really think it's possible he had no accomplices?"
"Furthermore, the team I sent to track the small Starship he was piloting reported back. The target abandoned a Warship near the underground city and vanished. My men have turned the underground city upside down but haven't found him. The man who should be lying in a Treatment Pod is missing, yet someone with the same build, movements, and even identical scar locations has appeared. With the entire Federation at stake, I can't help but be suspicious."
