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

Yoel sighed and looked at the Empress, pretending to feel pity. “Your Majesty, before I arrived, I thought that there were so many talented, wise people in the South Cloud World. I thought that there would definitely be someone that could put the thread through the hole. Your Majesty, please don’t be mad. This is not a task for ordinary people.”It was obvious what Yoel was hinting at.'Although your South Cloud World looked capable, the people are all brawn and no brains. There is not a single truly capable person. None!'When the Empress heard that, her incredibly beautiful face darkened, but she maintained her composure due to her position as a royal.Fletcher and the rest of the officials were furious.However, it was the fact that none of them were able to put the thread through. Everyone could only stare at Yoel furiously while remaining silent. Darryl stared at the jade quietly, his brows furrowed. ‘So interesting. How can people make it?’ he thought. Darryl had consi

Fletcher could not help walking forward and scolded Darryl while pointing at him, “How could you solve it if all of us couldn’t? Don’t make a fool of yourself. Step back at once!”Fletcher felt that the eunuch was just trying his luck to get the Empress’s reward.At the same time, all of the officials scolded Darryl, too.“That’s right. Why is this eunuch trying to be a fool?”“Do you know what the consequences are if you aren’t successful?”“How rude you are…”Everyone was busy shouting. Darryl could not help but laugh quietly as he looked around. “So when none of you were able to succeed, no one else is allowed to try? I’m very confident I will succeed. Besides, I’m not trying to show off. I’m doing this to save the South Cloud World’s reputation.”When he said that, Fletcher and the rest were rendered speechless. Darryl knew clearly what Fletcher and the rest were thinking. They were worried that if he succeeded, it would show how useless they were.The truth was Darryl had

Using the ant to bring the red thread over the jade piece; what an incredible idea!“That’s amazing!” Princess Evergreen was delighted and could not help but clap her hands as she shouted.Princess Evergreen almost yelled at Darryl due to her excitement. Luckily, she managed to control herself immediately as it was not appropriate in that situation. She changed her tone before speaking, “That was great! How brilliant!”The Empress' incredibly beautiful face finally broke into a smile. She looked at Darryl and nodded as she said, “Great. Very good, very good!”The Empress had never expected that a eunuch had such a brilliant mind. She was impressed.As for Fletcher and the other officials, all of them felt puzzled. They looked at Darryl and were still in shock! Everyone thought that eunuch would never succeed, but he did it unexpectedly!“Diplomat Yoel! There are plenty of wise men in the South Cloud World. Even a lowly eunuch was able to put the thread through the jade. Aren’t yo

Fletcher’s face was all red and looked enraged, “How dare you! It seems like you are still new to the palace and don’t know the rules. Let me tell you, I am the Royal Guard General, and Her Majesty awarded me the golden badge. With this golden badge, I can go in and out of the palace freely. And for a eunuch like you, you must listen to my order unconditionally. Understood?”Fletcher turned his hand and took out the shiny golden badge.At that instant, all the officials became serious and were envious when they saw the golden badge.That was the golden badge awarded by the Empress. It was the symbol that showed a person’s importance. As long as Fletcher had the golden badge, Darryl could not deny his orders no matter how ridiculous they might be. However, Darryl, as the Elysium Gate Sect Master, would never entertain that type of humiliation.At that moment, Darryl looked at the golden badge and smiled lightly. He didn’t bother to say a word but turned and left!“Do you want to
