Amidst the old man's cursing, a towering castle appeared before Zhao Yi.
Surrounding the castle were people flying on brooms or carpets, patrolling and protecting the area.
Meanwhile, armored soldiers guarded the main gate. Upon seeing the old man, they all bowed, making Zhao Yi suspect that this guy held a high position.
"You wait here, if you take even one wrong step! See those soldiers around? They'll kill you directly!"
The old man glared fiercely at Zhao Yi and stormed off. He turned and walked to the castle's back garden, where a beautiful and elegant girl, tall and wearing a long dress, was admiring the flowers. When she saw the old man, the queen smiled sweetly, as if the world was about to melt.
"Great Mage, you've come."
"Your Majesty, I have some good news and some bad news. Which would you like to hear first?"
"You're teasing me again, start with the bad news! That way, the mood ends on a high note."
