The Empress's Vision

The Empress of the Wood Spirit Empire looked at Wu Long with more and more interest, but gradually shock appeared in her eyes. Even while she stood in the air above and looked down at him, she had a weird illusion of looking up, as if a celestial being was before her and she was a tiny little human. She has only ever experienced such a profound feeling once not long after her ascension to the throne.

Wu Long looked at her with some interest as well, but there was a calmness that she lacked in his gaze, as he was more amused than astonished by what he saw.

"What business do you have with..."

The Empress finally opened her mouth, her tone a little cautious but paused a little into her speech.

"Kh-ephew-khm"

The Guard Captain cleared his throat in a low volume, though anyone with a little attention could hear a vague "nephew" in his cough.

"What business do you have with my nephew?"
