Chapter 1787


    Back when X Quest''s father returned home with the painting, she did have her suspicions.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    For some reason, she felt that the emperor didn''t look like those on television or in other paintings...


    That emperor was unusually thin. Itpletely changed her mind about what an emperor should look like...


    Back then, her impression of emperors was plump-looking men.


    When X thought of this, she shuddered and turned to look at Stanley Batton''s face. "I... I think he must be a god..."


    Stanley raised his brows. "Why are you so sure?" he asked as he looked at X.


    X immediately told Stanley about how her father acquired a painting of the emperor from a monk.


    "Back then, the monk said that the emperor entered his dream... After waking up, the monk drew the emperor''s portrait so that he wouldn''t forget it...


    "When I was a kid, I felt that the monk''s dream was ridiculous. I felt that the monk only made up the story my father told me...


    "But from the way things look now, this might have been the truth.....


    "Otherwise, how could such a coincidence exist in the world? Why would the Cornelius Kroe we just met look identical to the emperor in my father''s painting?" X asked.


    She felt even more certain about her thoughts now. "Besides, don''t you think this person is way too powerful?"


    Stanley frowned. He was deep in thought.


    Approximately three secondster, he decided to affirm X''s im. "That''s not unlikely..."


    In the past, Stanley would''ve found the things X said somewhat ridiculous.


    He might have even doubted her.


    But now that he''d personally experienced so many mystical incidents, he was beginning to think that anything was possible in this world.


    "If even the great emperor couldn''t help us, we are sitting ducks... There''s no other way." X became even more depressed...


    Stanley''s frown deepened, and his facial expression gradually turned grim...


    This was the first time in his life that he encountered a situation where he felt helpless.


    In the past, he''d always thought he was capable of anything.


    However, he now realized that he was only an ordinary person in this big world...


    It turned out that he could also be helpless.


    He would also have things to worry about.


    Stanley wasn''t afraid of death. He was only afraid that nobody would be there to look after X after he''d died.


    He was also afraid of parting with X.


    "Perhaps there might be another way..." Stanley continued to console X.


    However, X shook her head. "There is no other way..."


    "What if that person isn''t the emperor? That emperor in the


    painting was probably someone


    monk made up to trick people...


    "Cornelius Kroe only looked like that person due to a coincidence." Stanley was trying to find ways tofort X.


    However, Xughed bitterly. "How could that be... Stop trying to console me..."


    "X... No matter what happens, I''ll


    be by your side... Remember that believe that no matter how difficult e


    things get, we can ovee anything if we stay by each other''s side..." Stanley said.

    "Honey, I''m curious about something..." X turned to look at Stanley''s face again.


    Stanley turned around and looked at X. "Go ahead..." He said curiously.


    "How did you know about Cornelius? How did you know about this temple?" X asked.


    X was genuinely curious about these things...
