Ancestral land, castle.

First floor hall.

The queen wept, her hand trembling as she held the ice blade. "Why didn't you hide?"

"Because I can't die," Chen Yu smiled. "And I know you didn't want to kill me."

"...Why?"

"Haven't you told me before that I will do something great in the future? This proves that I won't die now. I can live smoothly for thousands of years."

"..."

"Fate," Chen Yu shrugged. "You also understand that everything is destined."

Upon hearing this, the queen's emotions collapsed even more.

"Good girl," Chen Yu remained calm, ignoring the blood spreading on his chest, turned and patted the queen's trembling shoulder, pointing upstairs. "The group of friends on the first floor are awakening. Let's go to the third floor and chat."

With that, he didn't care whether the other person responded or not.

He walked straight back to his bedroom on the third floor.

The queen silently watched Chen Yu's back, remained silent for a long time, wiped away the tears on her face, and followed him.

"Close the door, please."

Sitting at the desk, Chen Yu crossed his legs and took out a box of cigarettes from the drawer. After lighting one, he put it in his mouth. "Sit."

After closing the wooden door, the queen sat opposite him. "You knew I would come early."

"Nonsense," Chen Yu exhaled a puff of smoke. "I'm not an idiot."

"When did you learn to smoke?"

"I've eaten Soul Beads, what's wrong with smoking?" Disdainfully dispersing the smoke in front of him, he changed his sitting posture and looked directly at the queen. "It's useless to talk about it. How long have you been in this timeline?"

"...Forty years."

"Why did you come so early? Did you want to kill the 'Great Emperor' right away?"

"I don't even know who the Great Emperor is, so how can I find his mother?" The queen's eyes were complicated. "I just wanted to come early and kill him before the Great Emperor grew up. But unfortunately, I searched every place and couldn't find his trace."@@novelbin@@
