682 Chapter 682 "Childhood Sweetheart"

"Mission in the lower realm?" The girl sat down beside the empress' seat as she blinked her bright golden eyes similar to Long Ao Zhen's eyes. These eyes were exactly why the empress was very fond of this girl despite her personality.

"Yes dear, and the plan you mentioned before, it failed. Ao Zhen made a human girl his wife instead because of the plan." The empress sighed as she massaged her tired temples. She had gone to such a long way to execute the plan only to match his son with a mere human.

It's a good thing that his son trusted her deeply, for if he knew what she did, he would hate her for sure.

"Huh?! Ao'er married a human girl?" The girl gasped in surprise hearing the news. She had heard about the rumour, but she didn't believe it until this time when the empress mentioned it.

"Yes. It was an accident, so we decided to wait until the human dies from old age as to not sully Long Ao Zhen's reputation." The empress patted the girl's back trying to calm her down. She had already matched this girl with her son long before they grew up, and now this. It must have been shocking news for Yan Fenghuang.

"But auntie already promised Yan'er that…wait. Isn't a human also able to live a long life if they cultivate?" Yan Fenghuang tilted her head as she asked the empress with a grieved expression on her face.

It could be said that she was already engaged to Long Ao Zhen ever since they were children, and she was indeed Long Ao Zhen's childhood sweetheart. How could Long Ao Zhen suddenly marry a mere human girl?

The empress knew for sure just how ruthless this girl could be. She didn't want to oppose her son, so if this girl did anything funny to his son's wife, that would either anger his son or make his son's wife refuse to help their kingdom.

"A cripple? That's good. I only need to wait for several years." Yan Fenghuang's face suddenly brightened when she knew that Long Ao Zhen's accidental wife won't live for long. Unless Long Ao Zhen decided to consummate their marriage, that girl won't live a long life!

"Yes. I doubt that my son would consummate his marriage with that girl so calm down and wait, don't do anything funny in case you anger my son." The empress really gave her full support to the daughter of the first general of their kingdom, Yan Fenghuang.

How could she not give her full support to this girl? This girl was the only one she deemed worthy of his son among other girls in their kingdom. Yan Fenghuang, one of the most beautiful girls in their kingdom, was really a match made in heaven for her son!

Her beauty was unparalleled even to other kingdoms. Many royal families from the other six kingdoms admired Yan Fenghuang's beauty, and if Yan Fenghuang was born in their country, they would for sure make her the wife of their esteemed son.

With her pair of golden eyes looking exactly like Long Ao Zhen's, even the citizens in their kingdom ship this girl with her son. White smooth skin like jade, small pink lips and cheeks with a pink blush, this girl deserved the title of 'Cherry Blossom Princess' even though she wasn't really a princess.

Such a beautiful girl, she wanted her to be her daughter-in-law!

"Alright, auntie I won't do anything to Ao'er's wife. I will wait until that human girl dies naturally from old age before making my move. A pity our plan didn't go well." Yan Fenghuang obediently listened to the empress' words, elevating her value in the empress' eyes even more than before.

"Good good, I'll inform you if Ao Zhen comes back. You can meet him by then." The empress couldn't wait to meet his son when he came back to receive his grounded punishment by his father. She would let those two meet and slowly bloom their feelings for each other.

Lower realm.

"I'm going now. Be good, don't cheat on me, and don't look at other men besides me. Don't get too close with them either. Take good care of yourself, don't forget to call me every day." Long Ao Zhen ruffled Li Shi Ying's hair as he gave her a bunch of warnings, acting like a mother hen about to leave it's' nest.

"Yes yes don't be so naggy, ah! You too, don't get bewitched by other beautiful girls up there. Don't cheat on me, answer my call every day...don't you dare get close to other dragon girls when you're in the higher realm."

Li Shi Ying pouted her cheeks, feeling unfair that only she couldn't cheat on Long Ao Zhen.
