"Yvette, I’ll sleep. Tomorrow you'll tell me stories again, okay?" Ambrose smiled as he spoke.
"Good, good " Yvette patted his head and smiled.
Ambrose nodded happily. He was so sleepy that he fell asleep quickly and was breathing deeply.
Yvette hugged him in her arms as she watched him sleep soundly. It was raining heavily outside, and it was really cold in the temple. Both of them were hugging each other tightly to keep themselves warm. After a very long time, Yvette finally fell asleep.
Meanwhile, at the Empress' residence in the palace of South Cloud World.
Darryl kneeled in front of the Empress calmly in the quiet but exquisite garden. He was unsettled.
Since Darryl was able to use an ant to tie the red string, the Empress was about to reward him. He had told the Empress that he wanted Quincy's Dragon Essence.
At that moment, the Empress looked coldly at Darryl. It was only after a while that she finally spoke, "You little eunuch, you want Princess Quincy's Dragon Essence?"
"That's right, Your Majesty!" Darryl dared not lift up his head, but he sounded determined.
He followed Quincy all the way to South Cloud World for the Dragon Essence. He would not give up before he got it!
The Empress sighed and looked quietly at Darryl as she said, "Technically, you have accomplished a feat no other could, so I should not deny your request. However, as this involves Princess Quincy, I can't decide on her behalf. Princess Quincy is my sister. If I force her to give away the Dragon Essence, it would not be right.
As he heard that, Darryl felt hopeless.
'Sh*t! You are the Empress; you are the monarch! You just need to give the order, and Quincy would definitely obey,' he thought.
Darryl became distraught at the Empress' response, but he did not dare to voice his thoughts.
At that moment, Darryl forced a smile, but he was not sure what to say.
Darryl did not know that Quincy and the Empress were not only sisters.
When the Emperor passed away, the entire South Cloud World was in chaos. Quincy helped the Empress assume the throne and clear all the obstacles so that the Empress could secure her foothold
