Bab 246: Chapter 246: Home

The next morning, the Divine Empress returned to the desolate Royal City. She stepped inside the Palace that was covered in cracks. It was a miracle that the palace was still standing.

She located Xu Shan within the Palace, finding him inside the bedroom that belonged to her. This was also the place where she had first met him face to face.

Xu Shan was lying in bed comfortably with his eyes closed. He didn't even bother to look towards the Divine Empress when she entered the room.

Thinking that he was asleep, the Empress slowly moved back, letting him sleep. However, before she could leave the room, she heard Xu Shan's voice.

"You seem to be feeling better now."

"How did you know?" she asked, frowning. Xu Shan didn't even look at her after all.
