章節 1186: New Dao

"Alchemist Jai, how have you been?" Alex asked as he watched Jai Heiyu walk into the room.

"Your Majesty," the girl quickly bowed. "I have been doing very good, thanks to your grace."

"I'm happy to hear that," Alex said. "Come sit, I have something to say to you."

The girl quickly walked up to the empty chair in front of Alex and sat down. "Your Majesty, you could've called me to the palace. You didn't have to come here at all."

"It's alright, I've been holed up in that place for a long time, so I needed some fresh air," Alex said. "Besides, I wanted to come and see how my favorite alchemists were doing."

Jai Heiyun gave a bashful smile and nodded. "We've all been doing great, your Majesty," she said. "Speaking of great, what is happening in the palace, your majesty? It feels like someone is breaking through each day there."

"Haha, it does, doesn't it?" Alex asked. "Actually, that's why I'm here."
