Pulling his thoughts back, Jiang Wuyuan relaxed his body, leaned back in his chair, and began to close his eyes to rest.

at the same time.
The Imperial Palace of the Heistan Empire.
"Father! Why won't you let me go to the front lines? I want to go!"
Lina Windsor, the third princess of the Hestan Empire, is clinging to the arm of a middle-aged man and acting coquettishly.
She has a delicate and charming appearance, and you can tell at a glance that she is a girl who grew up in a sweet environment.
However, the aura emanating from his body was already at the level of a grandmaster.
Despite her young appearance, Princess Lina is over eighty years old and has never married, making her the object of pursuit for many young talents.
At over eighty years old, in this era of spiritual practice, it really isn't considered an advanced age.
It can only be described as being in the prime of youth.
“Even your brother Seth couldn’t save the situation, so there’s no point in you going, my sweetheart.” The middle-aged man’s eyes were full of affection as he gently patted Lina’s head. “Listen to me, you’ll get hurt on the front lines. Do you want your mother and me to worry?”
"Father, you know my strength. I can definitely kill all those alien races!" Lina raised her hand, clenched it into a fist, and waved it wildly in front of the middle-aged man.
"Okay, okay, of course I know, my little sweetheart is the best, but............."
Before he could finish speaking, a servant rushed in from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess, and the Crown Prince request an audience."
"It's Seth back!" Lina exclaimed, her eyes wide with joy.
"Let him in."
The waiter respectfully responded and went to fetch the person.
"Father, Seth didn't lose the battle on purpose, please don't scold him," Lina said coquettishly, tugging at the middle-aged man's sleeve.
"That depends on his report." The middle-aged man struggled to resist Lina's coquettish advances and maintained his composure.
Just then, Sethmond Windsor walked into the hall.
He had a head of dazzling blond hair like the sun, and his azure irises were like the ocean, exuding gentleness and affection.
“Father.” Sethmond bowed respectfully, then gave Lina a gentle smile. “Nana, I’m back.”
"Ahem." King William Windsor of the Hester Empire coughed lightly twice, interrupting Sethmond's desire to catch up with Lina. "Let's get down to business. What made you abandon the front lines and come back now? Do you know what losing a commander means for the already tense situation on the front lines?"
William's voice wasn't loud or particularly serious, yet Sethmond dared not contradict him at that moment.
Those familiar with William know that this is how he appears when he's harboring anger.
"Father, the Dragon Kingdom's second reinforcement is about to arrive. This force will greatly alleviate the tense situation at the front. I also need to discuss the specific strategy with the Dragon Kingdom's leaders, which is why I rushed back."
William looked down at him, neither confirming nor denying: "Hmm, are things arranged at the front?"
"I only dared to come back after everything was arranged."
Sethmond dared not look up.
Lina gently tugged at William's clothes.
William had no choice but to relent: "Now that you're back, focus on studying the frontline strategy. Don't just think about playing with Lina, and don't lead her astray!"
William only acted like a loving father when the topic of Lina came up.
The rest of the time, he was a serious and earnest king.
"yes."
