The world was silent. . .
As it should be in the presence of a true celestial.
A being whose physical form could transcend an entire dao layer with minimal effort.
Emperor Cloudcrest stood there, radiating a powerful, world-trembling aura.
The only other person who could move was Mu Lingxi.
"Cloudcrest..."
Her tone made it clear she wasn't happy to see him, and the deep frown on her face was but a bonus.
"Hello, Lingxi..." Cloudcrest's voice was calm and soothing, like the ocean at night.
Mu Lingxi walked toward him with bold steps.
Casually, Cloudcrest shrugged and said, "But I suppose 'wife' would be the more proper term, yes?"
As soon as Mu Lingxi came within reach of Cloudcrest, her hand shot out and she grabbed him by the neck, squeezing with enough force to crush a boulder.
"What are you doing here?"
