<h4>Chapter 537: The Young Master of Evanesce City</h4>
A maid walked in and kneeled down to salute her. “Princess, the Emperor hase.”
Gu Yun opened her eyes and gently acknowledged her presence. “You can go back now.”
By the time the Beiqi Emperor came in, the maids had already left. He wore a five-wed dragon rope and watched as Gu Yun leaned on the chaise loungezily without showing any signs of getting up. He did not feel insulted and even saluted her with respect. “I, your subordinate, pay my respects to the Empress.”
“What matters do you have to report?” Gu Yun spoke arrogantly. She did not think much of the Beiqi Emperor.
“The passageway to Xuantian Continent had been sealed with a powerful forcefield since half a year ago and does not allow anyone to pass through. As such, we may need you to stay here for a while. When the people on the other side break the forcefield, we can take you there.”
Gu Yun frowned. “How long more do they need?”
“I am not certain. The people in Xuantian Continent also cannot pass any messages to us,” Beiqi Emperor said. If it was possible, he would have sent Gu Yun there a long time ago, instead of waiting until this moment.
Gu Yun could not help but question him, “Father Emperor, if that king was truly powerful, why does it take so long to find him? Moreover, why wouldn’t hee fetch me himself?”
“The king has his own reasons, Yun’er. You only need to believe in your Father Emperor and be prepared to be an empress. You will be the Empress, the supreme power of this world.” The Beiqi Emperor was a little agitated. When Yun’er bes the Empress, he wanted to follow her and stand at the top of this world.
Gu Yun was not interested in the man who had yet to appear, so she did not disy the anticipation and agitation that the Beiqi Emperor showed. She was toying with the grapes on the table instead.

Feng Tian emerged from the pharmacy and her ears twitched slightly. She heard the tter of horse hoofs and synchronized footsteps. Soon after, soldiers appeared on the sides of the streets to stop themon people and open a path.
“Evanesce City hase to fetch the Elder Princess.”
“I’ve heard that Evanesce City truly values this political marriage, so much so that the Young Master hase all the way from the border to wee the Elder Princess.”
“Don’t call it a political marriage, that doesn’t sound very nice. The Young Master of Evanesce City and the Elder Princess love each other and are a couple made in heaven. They are marrying out of love, not because of any political reasons.”
“The Young Master of Evanesce City had asked for Elder Princess’s hand in marriage two years ago, only the princess was still young back then so had not been agreed upon.”
“Then why have I heard that the Young Master of Evanesce City has changed? Apparently, he is now an unknown bast*rd son.”
“...!”
Feng Tian originally did not pay heed tomotions like these, but now that she knew it was about Gu Nanzheng’s future spouse, she could not help but raise her head to look. The first thing she saw was a man in ck robes riding on the back of a tall and giant demonic wolf. The man had a handsome face with defined features. His face looked serious and his arrogant eyes stared straight ahead, making him look just like a proud wolf king.
Beside the man was a youngd who rode on the back of a two-headed leopard beast. In contrast to his dark demeanor, the youngd wore a colorful and mboyant outfit. However, his face was very gloomy and he looked heavy-hearted.
After examining the two, Feng Tian’s gaze returned to the man in the ck robe. She hoped that Gu Nansheng’s future husband would be him as he looked more like the lonely and arrogant wolf king. Wolves were the most loyal to their partners and had only one partner in their lifetimes.
Sensing a different type of gaze upon him, the man on the demonic wolf frowned and looked over in the direction of the gaze he had felt. He saw a perfect side profile in the sunlight, so perfect in fact, that it looked just like the woman he had met two years ago in the South Winds Nation—Feng Tian!
