4 Emperor

The Empress, after going into the hallway and staggering a bit before composing herself, vanished from view. She teleported. She came to a doorway in the underground passage of the palace. Huge fluctuations of energy were coming from that room.

In front of the room, two guards were standing. The two guards greeted her with a nod. They were middle-aged with a robust build and they were in a seated position. Dense energy was rolling from their bodies. And although they were guards, they did not greet the Empress like normal guards. They were obviously trusted and held high positions.

The Empress asked, "Is he doing something important? Did he give any instructions to not disturb him?"

"No, Empress. He is doing his everyday cultivation. Nothing important, you may enter." The left guard replied.

The Empress walked inside the room to find a man inside seated with his legs crossed. Huge flows of energy were seen flowing into him from everywhere. The man was very handsome. He had the perfect build, ripped muscles filled with strength were hiding inside his clothes. He was wearing a robe and he had long black hair. Like the Empress, he was wearing a black ring on one of his fingers. He had a broad chest that brought the feeling of safety and might and he was tall and imposing.

He was the Emperor. He opened his eyes and gave a slight nod to the Empress. The Empress went and sat beside him and leaned on him and quietly started sobbing. The man felt pained in his heart looking at the beautiful woman crying in his arms.

"I heard what happened with Feng'er. But I only know what you talked about; I still cannot peek at your expressions from so far away. Tell me what happened, exactly." He softly spoke while comforting the woman.

"Our daughter died, and this woman is now occupying her body. Tell me what to do. I cannot kill her, and I cannot understand how this happened. Even at my Realm, I am confused. I did not find any malice in her. She seems, not of this world, probably from one of the lower mortal worlds." She spoke lightly.

"Let's take it as fate and let her be. If she has no malice, then let us not make life difficult for her. Qi deviation is not easily solved. Our daughter died, but fate has given us this one. If you cannot figure it out at your Realm, I am still far away. Let's just observe and see. It is our fortune that we were able to even have a daughter." The man spoke softly to her, comforting himself as well as his wife. He then lightly kissed her. They stayed in peace in the room for a while like that in silence. Waiting for his wife to calm down.

"I should go and meet her once." He said and stood up after a few hours. In a fraction, his light and soft look changed to an imposing ruler. He became majestic. His expression had subtle changes and he started giving out a majestic pressure. The Empress was still seated and looking at him, amusingly but still sadness was apparent in her eyes.

"Even after so long, I still fall in love with you when you change like that. It's been so long. I will leave for two years now, that star is dying and will soon turn into a black hole. It will have a huge boost on my Gravity Field. Once I am done, I will take you there, your Time area still needs to comprehension to turn into a Field. Standing on the black hole will help you figure out some mysteries. I leave that woman to you. My avatar will stay here to protect her once you say it is fine. I don't mind adopting her, it will be easier like that for us as well." The Empress got up and walked out with the Emperor from the room. They both vanished and came in front of the Princess' room. The two guards followed suit.

Jenny was just finishing her food and cleaning up before settling down to ask some questions when the door opened, and 4 people came in. The maids quickly stood up and greeted the newcomers with full respect and servile behaviour.

"Long live the Emperor and the Empress!"

Jenny looked at the new person and the two guards behind and was scared. They all had imposing bearing and were releasing energy waves that made it difficult to look up to them. But her years of being a spy told her that her Mother was the most formidable even though she was not releasing any energy.

After being used to the pressure the three were exerting she looked at the man, her father, the Emperor, and was stunned. She had never seen a more handsome and charming man. He was tall, broad chest, thin lips, chiselled face, long black hair, dark eyes and a majestic aura of a ruler that no one can deny. He also looked strong. He was wearing a white robe with some golden embroidery that gave it a very rich look.

The two men behind were obviously the guards, but they also gave her a sense of crisis. She looked at them and they had an indifferent face and robust builds, nothing spectacular about them but still imposing. The guards were standing behind the Emperor and not the Empress, which made her confused like they were looking down on her.

Just like Jenny was staring and judging them, the Emperor was doing the same thing to her. He looked at the still growing but beautiful girl on the bed. She looked pale and weak. She had eyes that could mesmerise people but right now they were vigilant against the people here. This amused him, and he was thinking about what kind of life she must have lived before. However, nothing showed on his face.

"How are you, Feng'er?" he asked softly that brought Jenny a sense of comfort.

"Um, I don't know. Feeling weak but nothing else feels different. I guess you are my Father." She replied.
