The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

Tian Xuan hid behind the wall. She somehow felt that Master Di had discovered her. Her forehead was covered in a cold sweat, not knowing if it was her illusion or not.

This man was much more terrifying than the Ninth Emperor imagined.

And very scheming!

He sounded like he was deliberately speaking to her so that she could go and tell the Ninth Emperor.

Ridiculous. Did he think she would speak for him?

Tian Xuan sneered. She turned around and continued to hide in the shadows, carefully spying on every move in the courtyard.

At this moment…

Inside the room…

The Ninth Emperor frowned. Her beautiful face glowed under the cold moon.

She slept very deeply and quietly. The breeze blew at the bed veil that brushed her cheeks…

No one saw the painting, which was initially placed on the table, floating in the wind to the candlestick, and was burned by fire. Then, a white light slowly overflowed from the portrait, filling the room again…

***

White fog surrounded the place.

She could not see anything, and she looked a little confused.

Until… In that white fog, a figure gradually appeared standing in front of her.

The Ninth Emperor did not remember how long she had not seen this face… Too long that she thought she had forgotten.

However, after seeing that stunning face, she realized that she had never forgotten her…

Her appearance had long been deeply imprinted in her mind, so much so that after so many years, she could still see her again in her dreams.

“Mother…”

She called gently.

She then ambled toward the woman in the white mist, and each step she took was as long as if it had spanned a century.

“Where have you been?”

Why had she not come back to see her once all these years…

The woman smiled stunningly.

Her eyebrows were somewhat similar to the Ninth Emperor.

Compared to the Ninth Emperor’s domineering aura, this woman seemed more gentle, with a glow in her gaze.

“Little Nine, I know you have been looking for me, but you do not have to continue to look. Forgive me. Only now can I tell you to stop looking for me. It may be cruel, but I have no way to tell you before I go. I am afraid you might want to follow me…”

“Where are you?”

Her body trembled as she took one step closer to her. “Tell me where you are. I must go to you!”

“No, Little Nine. Don’t look for me anymore. You’ve been looking for me for a long time. All these years, I’ve followed your father. I believe in you… You can live a good life alone.”

“Then, why won’t you let me come with you? We can go together. We can go together!”

She left her behind.

No one knew the fear and confusion she felt when she was left behind in this place, and then she fled here alone to find her mother. All these years, she had never given up looking, convincing herself that she would find her mother.

And now her mother was telling her that she did not need to look for her anymore?

Why?!

“Little Nine, the place where your father and I go is not for you yet. But in the future, we will certainly see each other again. Your father and I just want to go first to pave the way for you. Only then, later, you can come to our side…

“Little Nine, stop looking. You don’t need to continue. We will meet again in the future.”
