Princess Sheila had thought it through. If Barely Immortal would not tell her where Finch was, she would report to Mother Empress that Barely Immortal and Finch had violated Heaven's rule.
…
On the other side, Darryl had reached the Jade Fairyland.
He was stunned when he entered Empress Heidi's bedroom. From there, he saw Empress Heidi sitting down graciously. The pale gold-colored silk dress embraced her curvy figure.
Even though the way she sat showed a hint of laziness, her supreme aura was not affected.
There was a maid who stood quietly beside Empress Heidi. Her name was Cloud Spirit—a confidant of Empress Heidi. She had always been beside Empress Heidi to take care of her personal needs.
At that point, Darryl was relieved. It seemed that Empress Heidi was not looking for trouble.
"Your Ladyship, did anything happen for you to summon me?" Darryl smiled and asked politely.
Just as he finished the sentence, Cloud Spirit reprimanded him coldly. "Why didn't you execute the kneeling and bowing ceremony when you saw Her Ladyship? Where are your manners and respect?"
Cloud Spirit had always felt proud and arrogant to be Empress Heidi's confidant. Even when she knew that the person she reprimanded was Heavenly Immortals, she still disregarded him.
Darryl felt angry and amused at the same time to see how arrogant Cloud Spirit treated him.
'How interesting! Empress Heidi had not even requested me to kneel down, and a maid like you dare to raise your voice at me.'
Empress Heidi waved her hand and smiled. "That's enough. Barely Immortal is a Heavenly Immortal and also Prince Aurin's master. There's no need for him to kneel down."
After that, she hinted to Cloud Spirit to place a chair for Darryl. Despite being unwilling, Cloud Spirit still did as she was told.
At that point, Darryl was puzzled. 'What? What situation is this? Empress Heidi had never liked me. What's her reason for changing her attitude and being nice to me?'
Just when Darryl was about to ask, he was interrupted by someone else.
"Mother Empress!" Princess Sheila shouted out before even reaching the bed chamber.
