"Since Your Majesty loves her, then Your Majesty knows her best. You should observe the three women carefully,her soul may be hidden, but her nature will betray her." the Daoist priestess answered, her voice hoarse but steady.
Xiang Long Wei narrowed his eyes. "Hmm... Eunuch Zhao, have her cleaned up. She will remain in the palace as a momo. I will need her again later."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Eunuch Zhao answered.
The Daoist priestess kowtowed, her forehead touching the floor in gratitude, before limping away under Eunuch Zhao's escort.
Xiang Long Wei stood up and walked to the window, silently watching them leave.
Langling…
If you've truly returned, then I know your first move will be revenge. On them—and especially on me.
But this time… you will never escape me again.
When I find you, I will protect you. I will build you a palace where only the two of us shall live. No schemes. No betrayal.
Just us. Wait for me.
