The more Alex explained about the difference in power, the more somber the mood became .the fact that the seal to the realm was dissolving by the minute did nothing to calm those present yet the fact that the only solace was in the fact the Faust family seemed to have a plan to deal with this, and yet that plan involved the loss of all they and their predecessors worked hard to build.
Just as such thoughts were beginning to surface, Alex hit them with reality, " if we really wanted your empires, we'd have long taken them ,for as you can see we are strong enough to do so easily. Anyways you have about ten years in this space to deal with whatever conflicts still exist between you two as you two shall unite the two empires in marriage with your child taking the throne , don't worry only the son or daughter between you two shall be the next emperor or empress as for time to think about this issue , I'll give you ten years in this space and if your worried about those outside , the time within this space and the outside world flows differently .good luck "
Those last words were said to the empress with thousands of meanings in the undertone.

As the figure of that man no freak disapeared, I felt a pair of eyes on my back and who else could they be from than the only man I'd ever loved Zhang, without even waiting for his question I answered " he's our son " .
That alone seemed to have sucked strength out of his legs as he fell to the ground .
On his face could be seen a myriad of emotions from happiness ,anger sadness helplessness to even resignation as he could guess the reason for some of the reasons for her discission yet this didn't stop the anger towards his own weakness.
Had he been strong enough to oppose her father who had at that time been one of the strongest beings but also a pride full and arrogant man who looked down on ascenders.
The only reason he still lived even after he'd found out about his affair with his beloved daughter is because of his master whose lifespan was getting exhausted and had little holding him back from launching a suicidal attack on the holy cities of the celestials.
Using this failure as fuel, he not only cultivated to the peak before his master's death but also created the immortal court with his brother.
Who except his brother knew that all this was for the woman he loved and yet by the time he became the immortal emperor, she'd also become the celestial emperor making it even harder for them to be together.
Looking at the nervous beauty in front of him that was constantly fidgeting with the helm of her squirt, he couldn't help but let out a chuckle that stunned the beautiful lady.
As she started to frown with her eyes slightly squinting she suddenly felt a warmth enveloping her and suddenly hearing reassuring words " it's okay, I'm here " that alone made her cry as thousands of years of frustration were released.
After a few days of coaxing and comforting, a nagging question appeared in his mind and he spoke it out , " why is our son still in the lower worlds, more like how's that even possible.
Hearing his words , a wistful look appeared on her pretty face ." just after he turned three ,I sent him to the lower worlds as the fight for the throne was in full swing, little did I know,.. "
