The Pinnacle Of Life

Xerxes anxiously watched Adrian and Jade follow the Rakshasa Temple up the stairs. Despite how worried he was, there was nothing he could do.

Jade’s personality was just like that. No one could affect the decisions once she had made up her mind. Even Xerxes, who used to be her husband, couldn’t… That was also the biggest problem between them. Jade wasn’t as obedient to him as other women.

He wanted to follow them, but he was the instrument in saving the Emperor. The golden bamboo boat was the fastest divine artifact that could save the Emperor in thirty seconds, making it the most important part of this mission.

Gilbert patted Xerxes’ shoulder as he noticed how anxious he was. “Don’t worry, bro. Commander Benmore is a powerful woman. She must have her reasons for making such a choice. You should have faith in her.”

Xerxes sighed. “I just don‘t understand her anymore.”

Gilbert shook his head. “You’re always sleeping with other women, it’d be a wonder if you understood her.”

“Relax. my son-in-law isn’t someone who dies that easily. I read the stars just now. I couldn’t tell my son-in-law’s fortune, but I could vaguely tell of Commander Benmore’s. She’ll be safe. You just have to get ready and save the Emperor now!”

Xerxes nodded, and as he looked towards the Fuzen Tower, he couldn’t help asking, “Bro, do you think that Jade has feelings for Adrian?”

“It’s obvious that there will be feelings between disciple and master. My son-in-law is a talented disciple. It’s normal that Commander Benmore appreciates him.”

Xerxes muttered, “I meant love…”

“Uhm…”

Gilbert was clearly taken aback. He glanced at Adrian and Jade, who were walking towards the Fuzen Tower. If a stranger looked at them, they might feel that they were a couple… After all, Jade had transformed greatly after Adrian saved her when she got poisoned. She looked much younger now.
