Bab 258: A Strange Existence

An awkward silence descended over the hall. No one knew what to say, and only five people seemed completely unaffected. These people were Xue Wei, Hei Gou, Bai Tianyi, Lin Xiao, and the King.

The King leaned forward and rested her elbows on the table in front of her. She propped her chin up on the palms of her hands and narrowed her five eyes into a curious expression.

Xue Wei was also curious about this woman whose title was a misnomer.

He glanced at her before cupping his hands and once more bowing to the woman. “Thank you for straightening out the disagreement,” he said with a friendly voice and a smile.

The King just waved her hand dismissively and smiled at Xue Wei. “I am quite curious about you foreigners,” she said as she leaned slightly forward, her half-lidded eyes sparkling with curiosity.

“I would be honored if you could tell us all about the continent you originated from,” she continued, and Xue Wei, who saw no reason not to comply, started describing Chang’an.
