While Phantylia in the Divine Realm was still discussing "descending to the mortal world" with Qian Lingsu...
In the former Star Luo Empire, now the Oak Empire, an unexpected visitor arrived at the Nether Duke's Mansion...
In the Reception Hall of the Nether Duke's Mansion, a man and a woman stood facing each other, both tall and slender.
"Bao~"
"Are you all right?"
Zhu Zhuyun looked worried. Not long ago, when she saw Zhu Zhubao standing on the Soul Beasts' side, she had nearly fainted from anxiety.
Of course, that had been before.
Now she was on the Soul Beasts' side too.
"Probably..."
Zhu Zhubao slowly shook his head.
"Just like the Oak populace now, the Lord of the Nation can draw my consciousness into the Dream World with a single thought. I can only obey his commands."
"But the Lord of the Nation also made me a promise. He agreed to release his control over me after he becomes a god."
Zhu Zhubao spoke frankly.
Although this body was emotionally detached, his relationship with Zhu Zhuyun was a little better than his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing.
For no other reason than that Zhu Zhuyun was rather flirty... rather outgoing!
When they were little, Zhu Zhuqing had been very put off by Zhu Zhubao calling her Mommy, but Zhu Zhuyun had not minded.
Whatever Zhu Zhubao called her, she dared to answer to it.
Although she had most likely acted that way because of Zhu Zhubao's talent, and might even have been thinking of using him to become Star Luo's empress or eldest princess.
But that was perfectly normal. Relationships between people always began with an agenda.
Just like Jin Li-hadn't he joined the Zhu Family for Zhu Zhuqing's beauty... for her importance too~
All that talk about beauty
