As the doors closed behind Wu Long, Nie Xiwang, who did not sit back down on the Throne turned her gaze to him still standing in the center of the room as before.
"Pfft! ....ehahahahaha!
You are quite something, Daoist Wu.
I wanted to be angry with you at first for the stunt you pulled before..."
She then started laughing, and her cheeks flushed red as she remembered the vision she saw when she spied on him leaving the capital.
"...but you gave me a good laugh and a great opportunity to get rid of those annoying people for a short period, so I suppose we can call it even"
She then said, revealing a look that made the tips of Wu Long's lips to curl up in a smile.
"Even? I beg to differ, Your Majesty.
It seems to me, that you still want something from me"
He spoke with a tone that made her widen her eyes. A tone she understood without experience or much knowledge. The understanding coming naturally.
