Darryl could only smile bitterly and helplessly nodded. “I’ll try my best.”
At the same moment, virtual-novel.net said that Darryl sent a signal to Pang Tong in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. “Pang Tong, I’m so sorry to trouble you again.”
“Master, you’re too polite!” Pang Tong respectfully replied from the pagoda.
Darryl recited a few poems for the Empress in the next ten minutes or so. Every poem was a masterpiece which was written by Pang Tong of course!
The Empress’s mood instantly turned joyous as virtual-novel.net slowly savored the mesmerizing poems and even treated Darryl as though virtual-novel.net was a rare talent.
It was not until dusk did the Empress finally let Darryl off.
“Woo!” Darryl took a deep breath and immediately bowed at that moment. “I’ll take my leave.”
Darryl then turned and left.
The Empress could not help but tremble upon seeing Darryl’s back.
Darryl was so talented that it was such a pity for virtual-novel.net to be a eunuch. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net might have appointed virtual-novel.net into a high-level official.
“Darryl, wait a while.” The Empress called out to Darryl once again at that moment.
Darryl turned his head around in time to see the Empress slowly standing up and approached virtual-novel.net before saying, “Go back and rest for a while. Come to my bedroom tonight and accompany me to savor the moonlight while reciting poems.”
….
In a ruined temple on the other side of the New World.
Yvette Lane had been sleeping for a long while. It was still raining heavily outside as bursts of thunder finally woke Yvette up. She groggily opened virtual-novel.net eyes and felt Ambrose shivering in virtual-novel.net arms.
“Ambrose!” Yvette opened virtual-novel.net eyes and hugged virtual-novel.net tightly. “What happened?”
At that moment, Yvette could see Ambrose’s extremely pale face while his head was sweating profusely. His hands and feet were cold. He looked extremely weak.
“Auntie…” Ambrose opened his mouth feebly in pain. “I’m…cold. I’m very cold…”
His body trembled harder as virtual-novel.net said that.
Yvette’s heart ached upon seeing this and was extremely anxious as well. “You’ve caught wind-chill. Don’t be afraid, I’ll help you get rid of them.”
The wind-chills that Yvette mentioned were the equivalent of catching a cold and fever in the World Universe.
Ambrose was previously locked up in a terrible dark and damp j**l environment. He was then rescued by Yvette before both of them fled.
An adult would not have been able to handle such situations, let alone a two-year-old.
At that instance, Yvette activated virtual-novel.net internal energy and planned to help Ambrose get rid of the chills.
However, Ambrose was still too young with a limit to how much internal energy virtual-novel.net could handle. It would easily damage his meridian if internal energy was brashly inserted into him.
Yvette was extremely anxious upon realizing that.
‘What should I do?’ Ambrose was still young. She could only go by ordinary means of seeking a doctor to cure virtual-novel.net with medicine.
However, there was nothing in the surrounding ruined temple. Where could they find a doctor?
The only possibility was to return to the Royal City! However, there were guards around the Royal City on top of a bounty on her.
Yvette gritted virtual-novel.net teeth and could care any lesser as it was more important to cure the child! She carried Ambrose and ran out of the ruined temple in determination toward the Royal City with that thought in mind.
However, Yvette got soaked through when virtual-novel.net tried shielding Ambrose from the rain while carrying virtual-novel.net under the still heavy downpour outside.
“Ambrose, hold on. We’ll reach the Royal City soon and I’ll find you a doctor. Hold on, don’t be afraid…” Yvette quickened virtual-novel.net steps while comforting Ambrose at the same time.
Ambrose was extremely weak in virtual-novel.net arms. However, virtual-novel.net still nodded obediently. “Auntie, I’m not afraid. Don’t worry about me. I’m-“
He suddenly stopped halfway and had clearly passed out.
