After spending half an hour with Princess Evergreen, Princess Evergreen was so tired that she lay prostrate on the ground and fell asleep.Darryl was worn out too, so he shut his eyes for a while.He had been following Quincy for the entire journey from the World Universe and had not rested in two days. He was completely exhausted. After a nap for over an hour, Darryl opened his eyes and saw Princess Evergreen was still sleeping deeply. He stood up quietly.Taking this opportunity, he was going to go and check on Quincy’s place. He became excited as he was about to leave. “Announcing the arrival of Her Majesty,” at that moment, a voice announced loudly, followed by the sounds of footsteps. ‘The Empress is here?’ Darryl was stunned at that moment and panicked instantly.Before he could collect his thoughts, he saw a woman walking in slowly together with a few eunuchs. ‘Oh no!’ Darryl was completely stunned at that moment.The woman wore a gold dragon robe and a dragon and p
Right at the critical moment, Princess Evergreen rushed forward and stood in front of Darryl. “He is my closest eunuch. I’m the one who forced him to play with me. Mother, I beg you to forgive him.”At that moment, Princess Evergreen’s eyes were full of worry and begging.It was not easy for her to find an interesting eunuch. How could she let him be executed? At that same time, Darryl quickly kneeled and displayed an expression of fear. He was reluctant to kneel, but he had no other choice. He had to withstand the slight humiliation to stay at the palace to investigate Quincy’s whereabouts and the Dragon Essence.The Empress sighed and glared at Darryl. “I shall spare your life today. Leave now.”Princess Evergreen was the Empress’s youngest daughter. She was the apple of the Empress’ eye, and the anger in the latter’s heart lessened when she saw the princess begging for Darryl.Princess Evergreen was delighted. She hugged the Empress affectionately. “I know Mother always tre
“Handsome, please don’t leave. Stay here a little while more.” Princess Evergreen was swinging Darryl’s arm and asked softly, “Which part of the palace do you serve?”In the palace, there were many groups of eunuchs. Some of them worked in the imperial kitchen, some of them in the study room, some to serve the Prince and the Princess.“Well…” Darryl scratched his head and said, “I just came to the palace. They have not assigned a section to me yet-”As he spoke, Darryl observed Princess Evergreen’s reaction. What he said was too vague. Would the Princess suspect anything?Before he could finish, Princess Evergreen interrupted excitedly as she clapped her hands. “Is that true? That’s great. In that case, you shall serve me.”‘Sh*t! Me? Be her eunuch?!’ Darryl did not know whether to laugh or cry. He just had to agree with a bitter smile. The next hour, Darryl fought down his frustration and spent the time going crazy with Princess Evergreen. After playing a few games, Princess Ev
Darryl had his heart in his mouth. The Empress almost executed him because he played wildly with the Princess earlier. Now, he even trespassed into her bedroom, he would definitely be sentenced to death if he was found.‘Luckily, it’s only the Empress and me here, and the Empress is drunk. If I were to sneak out secretly, the Empress would not notice,’ he thought. Darryl was about to leave when he saw the Empress stand up unstably with her face flushed as she was drunk. She then walked slowly towards the painting.‘Did she notice me?’ he wondered. Darryl’s heart was pounding; he was so nervous.“Dear.”He saw the Empress' eyes gazing at the painting as she spoke softly, “It’s your birthday today. Do you know that I couldn’t sleep on this special day? My mind is full of images of you. Although you passed away just a few months ago, it feels like you’ve been gone for years. I miss you so much.”On the painting was a middle-aged man, dressed in dragon robes, looking smart! He w
Darryl felt relieved. It seemed that the Empress was so drunk that she had mistaken him for the spirit of the late Emperor.Darryl swallowed as he hugged the Empress. ‘No, this isn’t right. I’ll be in big trouble if the Empress sobers up later,’ he thought as he struggled to release himself from the Empress’ embrace so that he could leave. The Empress hugged Darryl’s waist even tighter, interlocking all her fingers. There was no way for him to release himself at all. Actually, Darryl could activate his internal energy and shake the Empress away, but he did not dare do so.“Dear, why aren’t you talking?” the Empress finally spoke as she pressed her face against Darryl’s chest. “You’ve been gone for months now. Don’t you miss me? You have nothing to say to me?”Darryl could only cough and broke out in a cold sweat as he heard those words. The wheels in his mind were turning.He cleared his throat and attempted to mimic the tone of a middle-aged man as he spoke, “My dear, of cours
‘Sh*t! Quincy is here too!’ he thought.Quincy was standing quietly beside the Empress, wearing a long, purple and gold dress. She looked extremely beautiful and attractive and had the aura of a warrior at the same time.Quincy and the Empress stood side by side, and both stood out in their own way. Both of the women’s looks and bodies were perfect.Both of them were Goddesses, but the aura they displayed was completely different. Quincy was somewhat assertive while the Empress was, needless to say, noble.For a while, Darryl was in a trance. He did not take another look and stood behind Princess Evergreen with his head down, looking like an obedient eunuch.To be very frank, Daryl had the unsettling urge of running toward Quincy the moment he saw her, but he held himself back.He was no match for Quincy during their one-on-one battle earlier.‘If I were to charge forward recklessly with so many people in the main hall, I would be courting death,’ he thought. Darry could also
“Report!” a eunuch walked in quickly and kneeled. “Your Majesty, the Westrington diplomat, has been waiting outside the main hall for a while. Do you want to allow him into the hall?”The Empress nodded and said, “Bring him in.”As she spoke, all the officials who were still talking shut their mouths instantly. All of them looked towards the main hall entrance.The eunuch was seen leading a middle-aged man into the hall, walking in slowly.The man was around 30 years old, wore a long, white gown, and looked wise. He was Yoel Walford, the diplomat sent by the Westrington Emperor.Westrington had the plan to conquer South Cloud World. However, their knowledge about South Cloud World was limited. Hence, the Westrington Emperor sent Yoel over to find out more about the South Cloud World’s strength.On top of that, the Westrington Emperor had also reminded Yoel to teach the Empress and the officials a lesson after he arrived at the South Cloud Palace.Once he entered the main hall, Y
There was no telling who had said that, which piqued everyone’s interest in the jade. It was well-known that Westrington was rich for its fine jade. The jade in Yoel’s hands was pure white and flawless, the greatest treasure of all time. “What an exquisite piece of jade! It would be so beautiful if you could put a string through it and make it into a pendant.” “Yes, Her Majesty is enchantingly beautiful. If this jade were to be made into a pendant for her, it would be a perfect match!”The Empress smiled briefly, hearing the officials’ words. Although she was royalty and the ruler of a nation, she was also a woman who loved to be beautiful. The Empress was delighted by the flatteries of the officials.At that moment, Yoel smiled as he walked a few steps forward, raised the jade in his hand, and said, “Your Majesty! This beautiful jade is called the Nine Curves Jade. This is a treasure that is sought-after by everyone in Westrington! Three years ago, when the Westrington contine
