As the Cloudy Wind Empire’s actions were unprecedented and their power was as great as a demon’s, the Cloudy Wind Empire’s Emperor gained the nickname of ‘The Demon Emperor’!
However, it was also likely that they never expected the Cloudy wind Empire’s Emperor to be a woman!
Initially, the Cloudy Wind Empire was managed by the Oracle, Liu Yue. This time, after Gu Ruoyun had returned, Liu Yue had offloaded the responsibility to her and handed the matters of the Morning Court to her as well.
It was a good thing that Gu Ruoyun has Lan Ge and Liu Yue to handle other matters. Aside from attending the Morning Court, she was also cultivating every day. Unfortunately, she, who has broken through to the Ninth Transformation State, could not raise her rank through cultivation alone.
At this moment, a cabinet minister has just stepped forward to present a report in the Morning Court. “Reporting to Your Imperial Majesty. You’re reaching the age of thirty but Your Imperial Majesty is still unmarried. The Cloudy Wind Empire’s Imperial Harem can’t be without a male Imperial Concubine so…”
The meaning behind the cabinet minister’s words was clear. This young woman has great power and hails from the First City. If he could give her a youth from his family as a concubine, their family’s status would rise as a result.
Even though most people on this mainland regards men as superior to women, they had never had a female Emperor before. As long as one could become the Emperor, the gender of those serving in the Imperial Harem was irrelevant.
Lan Ge furrowed his brows when he heard what the cabinet minister had said.
The Cloudy Wind Empire’s citizens do not know much when it comes to matters pertaining to the First City. They were also unaware that Gu Ruoyun already has a fiancé!
Lan Ge recalled that powerful and devilish-looking man and was about to speak up to stop the cabinet minister when a gloomy laugh suddenly echoed in the hall. It pierced through the sky to ring in every ear.
“I’d love to see who would have the courage to become her male concubine!”
The man’s voice was just as gloomy and domineering as ever as if he had just emerged from hell. It was absolutely frightening.
However, Gu Ruoyun had risen to her feet to stare fixedly out the door when she heard that voice…
A silver-haired man was slowly walking towards the main hall before the eyes of the crowd. When his demonic eyes caught sight of Gu Ruoyun, he could not turn away. It was as if there was nothing in this world which important than her in his eyes.
“Who are you?!”
The cabinet minister who had spoken up had not caught on to the situation and bellowed sharply, “This is the Cloudy Wind Empire’s Imperial Palace. Who gave you permission to enter this place? Where are the guards? Send this man away!”
Suddenly, the cabinet minister’s voice came to a spontaneous end.
The silver-haired man in scarlet robes had turned around to look at him.
At that moment, a cold and eerie sensation crept up within the cabinet minister’s heart. It enveloped his entire being and caused his mouth to drop open in horror yet he was unable to make a sound.
“Who am I, you ask?” The man chuckled softly while his smile carried a bloodthirsty aura.
He then turned back to Gu Ruoyun.
When his demonic eyes landed on her, his gaze softened and he winked at the woman, “I should be… Her Empress?”
After saying this, the man no longer cared about the loquacious minister and walked towards Gu Ruoyun with large strides.
He brushed his robes and sat down before pulling the green-robed woman into his arms as he stared at the cabinet ministers beneath him with his brows raised.
“I alone am enough for Yun’er’s harem. If anyone intends to take her away from me, I will shed their blood on the spot!”
Gu Ruoyun did not speak as her smiling eyes turned to look at the man by her side. Her lucid and elegant features were enveloped in a faint, tender glow.
He’s back.
He’s finally back!
