Su Yaoyao and Mingye returned to the Imperial Palace together. The moment she stepped through the familiar, imposing palace gates, she was eager to find His Majesty Augustine and tell him she was about to leave for the Sea Clan.
Her pace was hurried as she headed for the Emperor's study. Just then, a guard respectfully stopped before her, dropping to one knee. In a steady tone, he said, "Holy Female, His Majesty is currently awaiting you in your chambers."
A flicker of confusion rose in Su Yaoyao's heart. But confusion aside, she subconsciously quickened her pace and hurried toward her chambers.
When she raised a hand to push open the door to her chambers, the scene that suddenly appeared before her made her freeze on the spot, as if time itself had stopped.
Immediately after, a wave of joy washed over her heart like a surging tide.
The first thing she saw wasn't His Majesty Augustine, but Bai Lian, Reg, and Pani.
