Chapter 2363
A grand palace of pure white loomed before them.
An elegant, young, and beautiful woman clothed in a white, traditional robe sat in the palace.
She didn't seem like an ordinary deity. Her easy smile was delicate as she greeted Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton.
They glanced at each other before casting curious looks at the emperor.
He merely laughed as he regarded them. "This is my wife. She's also known as the empress in your realm."
Xyla was surprised to hear this.
When a person lived long enough, they would see various extraordinary things.
Not only did they get to meet the emperor, but they even met the empress.
She used to think stuff like that was entirely made up by other kids when she was young.
She never thought the emperor and empress even existed in the world.
Today, she discovered the truth of their existence.
In addition, they seemed even more captivating than television dramas and novels described them to be. "Empress, it is my honor to meet you," Xyla said as she and her husband bowed politely to her.
She continued to smile and gently approached the humans. "You don't
have to be so courteous with me. I'm indebted to you. Back when I went to the human realm to go through trials, your past selves rescued me.
"Do you remember when someone gave you a hairpin and a pendant one night?" she paused for dramatic effect. "That was me. My real identity is the plum fairy!
"I was also the one who left the marks on your children.
"I know about your past, and I also know what you would face in the future. I once begged the emperor to remove the calamities you would be facing.
"He refused. He didn't want to break the heavenly rules for me. It's why I had to protect you discreetly.
"The hairpin, the pendant, and the plum flower marks on your children are all safety charms I gave you. Those things can give you and your children the ability to protect yourself during crucial moments.
"Back when the nine-tailed demon fox kidnapped your children, they could retain unharmed because of my magie spells. I have been helping you secretly behind the emperor's back to repay your kindness she tof them truthfully.
"Do you remember the guru you met in the temple? The one who gave you a safety charm? That was mean disguise! That safety charm also once blocked the nine-tailed demon fox's attack when you weren't aware it happened."
Her voice was so delicate as she recounted all the times she had helped them, but they had gone unnoticed.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Xyla and Stanley instantly relaxed.
Neither of them expected all this.
"You are Cornelius Kroe? I thought that was the emperor because he looked exactly like the emperor in a portrait painting my father bought," Xyla said.
The empress chuckled when she heard this. "Is that so? What a coincidence."
Xyla nodded before glancing at the emperor.
