Hua Rong didn't return to the hall; she didn't want to go back so early to listen to Earl Baker's rambling.
She's already made her decision, so why is she still talking about asking her to go before His Holiness the Pope to explain her sins and say that she's willing to enter the Temple of Light to cultivate?
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was the original owner's father, Hua Rong would have been angry long ago.
After she disappeared from George and Gene's sight, she appeared in front of what appeared to be an abandoned palace.
The palace still adopts a Western architectural style, but the walls have begun to peel, and there are even many ivy plants growing on them, causing the walls to crack.
It's fair to say that this palace is completely out of place with the rest of Kate Middleton's palace!
It was precisely because of its incongruity that Hua Rong was able to find this place.
He already knew quite a bit about King Kate and the late Queen from Barber.
Perhaps in the eyes of the other citizens of Kate's Kingdom, the Queen had committed a crime, which is why she was sentenced to death by the King, and this also implicated the once-favored second prince, Gerald.
However, in reality, this is not the case.
If Hua Rong had to describe it, it would be the story of a man from a humble background who, after gaining power, turns his back on his wife who had shared his hardships and supports his true love to rise to the top.
But just now, it seemed that the King and Queen weren't getting along very well. Hua Rong wondered if King Kate regretted it.
She looked at the palace, and the next moment her body disappeared into thin air, appearing directly inside the palace.
A voice came from the inner palace: "Who is it?"
The voice trembled, clearly indicating that the owner was intimidated.
He doesn't seem like a prince who was imprisoned in the palace and is still alive.
Hua Rong thought that she must have found the right person.
"Second Prince, guess who I am?" Hua Rong leisurely sat down on a fairly clean chair, which appeared to be Gerald's usual seat.
However, there wasn't even a pot of boiled water on the table; the second prince was indeed living a miserable life.
Upon hearing this, Gerald, who had initially thought that the Queen had finally lost her temper and sent someone to kill him, was taken aback.
That voice sounds like a woman's?
He's still very young!
To be honest, now that I'm in Gerald's shoes, I feel like I shouldn't have chosen the opposing plane in the first place.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be like he is now, not only a prince imprisoned in the palace without real power or ability, but also facing constant danger to his life.
The system's owner hasn't even been seen yet; he might be killed by other natives.
He's been here for almost a month, and he hasn't been sleeping well every night.
I'm terrified that if I close my eyes, I'll never be able to open them again.
"Who are you? Did the Queen send you? Go back and tell her that I no longer want to or can compete for the throne. She doesn't need to care that I competed with her son. Gotha has become a top magician, while I am still stuck in the same place and pose no threat to him at all. My being alive only shows how magnanimous they are."
Zhou Yi tentatively said these words, seemingly trying his best to show that he was not afraid, but his tone still trembled slightly.
Moreover, the survival instinct he displayed in his words was incredibly strong!
Hua Rong knew that Zhou Yi had been terrified during this time.
She was terrified that if things continued like this, the man would scare her to death.
Then she won't be able to enter the forbidden dimension.
So she smiled and said, "Listen carefully again to see who I am?" Hua Rong used her original voice, and this time Zhou Yi recognized it.
During this period, he would curse Hua Rong in his heart whenever he had a spare moment.
If it weren't for her, he would probably still be living a mundane life in a low-level plane.
How could things have turned out like this, where we've arrived in such a high-level plane and are now trapped in a prison?
Therefore, he recognized Hua Rong's voice as soon as it came out.
Zhou Yi rushed out wearing a tattered nightgown and saw Hua Rong sitting in his usual spot.
The next moment, Zhou Yi rushed over, knelt down in front of Hua Rong, and tears streamed down his face.
"Boss, you're finally here! I've been waiting for you for so long! If you hadn't come, I'd probably have scared myself to death. Life has been so hard, with dangers lurking everywhere. I'm afraid every day that I'll eat something poisonous, afraid that I'll fall asleep and never wake up again. Life is just too unbearable!"
Hua Rong: "..."
She was speechless, and seeing Zhou Yi crying his eyes out, she felt a little embarrassed.
It is indeed related to her. If it weren't for her, Zhou Yi wouldn't have been able to arrive in this higher plane all of a sudden.
Not only do they have to worry about when the Queen will come to eliminate them completely, but they also have to worry about the system owner discovering their whereabouts and killing them directly.
He's not thinking about completing any tasks anymore; he's just hoping the system owner will finish their mission in this dimension!
He could then automatically return to the forbidden plane, which should have been the safest method.
However, in this environment and under this identity, this safest approach is also the biggest burden.
He had no idea whether the system owner would discover him early on, nor could he guess whether the Queen was willing to leave him as a thorn in her side.
I've been thinking a lot lately, and the best solution I've come up with is for Hua Rong to appear, find him, and then, with a little conscience, protect him.
He had witnessed the power of that big shot; by her side, his safety was at least guaranteed.
Maybe they can even turn the tide!
So although Zhou Yi cursed Hua Rong in his heart every day before, it was all just a momentary outburst of anger.
She still hoped that Hua Rong could find him soon.
Hua Rong patted Zhou Yi's head, noting that Gerald's appearance was quite good.
In particular, his baby face softened Hua Rong's expression considerably.
"Your immediate priority is to get out of here, but I'm just a count's daughter, so I can't help you leave openly and honestly. Do you have any ideas?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi's face fell, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Boss, you're so amazing, how come you didn't have any other solutions?
Hua Rong's face darkened. "This is another world now, where brute force alone isn't enough. You'd better think of something right now, or I won't care about you anymore."
Zhou Yi was startled and quickly racked his brains. He said, "So, if I can think of a way out, you'll protect me, boss?"
Zhou Yi looked at Hua Rong pitifully, while Hua Rong shook her head blankly.
"I can't protect you 24/7, but as long as you can find a way out, someone will protect you."
She said with a half-smile, "Gerald's father probably feels guilty towards him now, and you are Gerald now. As long as you have the ability to get out, he will be your best protector. Otherwise, why do you think you have been able to survive in this palace for so long?"
Zhou Yi said, "I had guessed it before, but now that you say so, I feel even more at ease. I really do have a way to get out!"
