"Mister Ye is here!"
A few surprised voices rose from the emergency area. Immediately afterward, a slender man who looked to be in his early twenties, dressed entirely in black, walked over.
The man's eyes and short hair were both dark blue. There was little change in his expression as he headed straight for Xu Tianran's emergency area.
"Where is His Highness?"
The man addressed as Mister Ye spoke quietly. He seemed to exude nothing but loneliness and desolation. Even his voice was exceedingly hollow, giving an unreal impression.
In his right hand, he held a pink Begonia Flower aloft. Its white and pink petals were brilliantly colored and gracefully shaped, while its leaves and trailing branches draped down on either side, supple vines swaying in the wind, blossoms hanging in clusters.
Before long, Mister Ye emerged with a grave expression and looked toward Ju Zi.
"Mister Ye, His Highness, he... he's still..."
Having finally finished temporarily handling the various matters Xu Tianran had assigned her, the exhausted Ju Zi looked at Mister Ye, who had just finished his work, and gathered her courage to ask tentatively.
"His life should be preserved. Your Eminence Kong Deming and I worked together to remove His Highness's Soul Core. Although His Highness's Soul Power cultivation has directly fallen to the Soul Douluo realm, it should not continue to decline."
"If His Highness can persist in cultivating in the future, perhaps there may still come a day when he returns to the realm of a Titled Douluo."
At this point, the man known as Mister Ye seemed reluctant to continue.
"Please do not hide anything from me, Mister Ye."
Ju Zi saw the hesitation in Mister Ye's eyes and took a deep breath.
"Alas, Crown Princess, you should go in and see for yourself.
