Sovereign Lotus' eyes widened so bad her vision blurred. She then stepped back and shook her head. This woman's audacity had given her a physical push. After all these years—even in a million years, the Imperial Xu family was still the same. Then again, how could it even change if their idiot daughter was talking from a dead woman's perspective?
If this was the old world, then Sovereign Lotus wouldn't even dare speak like she was afraid of the goddess or that she was at the feet of the Highest Imperial Princess. However, during Emodao's reign among the demonkind, a lot of imperial houses in the mortal realm collapsed. Even those in heaven felt the pang as their descendants failed to make it back home. Emodao ravaged through the entire world like a maniac and ate most children of the gods. Not only Imperial Xu was extinguished, but also the other imperial houses—rising or well-established—all fell down because of him.
