However, when the time comes where he could finally get out of here, he would go to her and get the bead back in person!
âLittle girl... I hope you and your parents wonât let me down. If the bead is lost... maybe Iâll actually eat you.â
The man licked his lower lips like heâs relishing at the imaginary scene in his mind, thus giving off a seductive charm akin to a succubus.
......
Flame Domain.
Above a mountain range, a man stands tall with his hands held behind his back, those eyes unusually sharp when staring off into the distance scenery.
If Bai Yan was here, she should undoubtedly recognize who this individual was right away for heâs a old acquaintance of hers.
âMonarch,â itâs then a man that looks to be a guard here came up and cusped his hands in respect, âthe other domains have sent their representatives for an audience.â
The manâs brow faintly furrowed up as he spoke with the abnormally cold voice, âNo.â
That simple reply left no room for wiggle, thus causing the man to appear troubled.
âThen about Miss Gu?â The guard hesitated but spoke anyways, âMiss Gu have been waiting in the Monarch Manor, what should we...â
âLet her wait.â
In this world, there are no other woman that could make him move, aside from one....
But now he could no longer meet her.
Until he vanquishes all those who opposes himself, heâs determined to not appear before the love of his life again.
Perhaps itâs the memory of his wife resurfacing again, the cold frosted man suddenly formed a kind and gentle smile that astonished the guard standing in the rear. The minion here never once saw his liegeâs smile before so this would be the first.
I wonder who in the world could make His Monarchness smile like that? Not even Miss Gu could do that, and sheâs the most beautiful lady in this domain!
âYes, Monarch.â The guard did not want to pry so he carried out the will of his master precisely as told after retreating.
âNingâer (Bai Ning)... I know youâre back, but please forgive me for not being able to come see you. Wait for me, once I finish solving the problems here, Iâll go to the Celestial Realm and retrieve you.... You have to wait for me!â
Since learning of Bai Yanâs mother being in the Celestial Realm, this husband had left home on his own in order to grow and gain strength, the reason merely to find his wife and be reunited with the peerless woman.
However, what he didnât expect was that he would have the incredible opportunity to gain such powers and massive followings. But as all things that comes with power, there are consequences and a price to be paid. In this case, it would be a world of people that wants him dead. As a husband, as a father of Bai Yanâs, Bai Chang Feng couldnât risk having the love of his life and family be in danger due to his own decisions.
Monarch Manor.
Dressed in a long blue dress that had its skirt sliced along the bottom to show off those incredible and seductive leggings, this lady whoâs also a powerful monarch in her own right was currently sipping the tea from the cup in her hand, her eyes elegant and pleasing.
âIs Heavenly Flame back yet?â Miss Gu asks after seeing the guard who received herself had returned.
