#424 - His Majesty?

"Is Your Majesty awake?" Xu Ming looked at Xiao Lan, his expression showing some surprise.

The Dragon Queen waking up was definitely a good thing, but in Xu Ming's heart, he felt it would take some time. He didn't expect the Dragon Queen to wake up so quickly.

Xiao Lan said with a smile, "Sir Xu, you will know if you come with this servant."

Xiao Lan turned around and walked forward, leading Xu Ming towards the inner hall of the Dragon Palace.

This time, Xu Ming was finally not taken to the Dragon Queen's bedroom.

Instead, Xu Ming was taken to a separate courtyard on the south side of the Dragon Palace.

This courtyard had many light blue trees.

The shape of the trees was similar to that of the Chinese parasol tree, but their branches and leaves were slightly sparser.

Moreover, each leaf bloomed with a little blue fluorescent light.

"These trees are called Blue Maple Trees. They are abundant in a wilderness in our North Sea and are a specialty of our North Sea. Blue Maple Trees can live in water, similar to Chinese parasol trees on land," Xiao Lan explained to Xu Ming, seeing his puzzled expression.

Xu Ming nodded and said nothing.

Xu Ming did feel that Xiao Lan's attitude towards him was better than before.

Although Xiao Lan's attitude towards him was not bad before, it was more of a polite treatment, the same as she treated everyone else, without any special consideration.

But now, Xu Ming felt that Xiao Lan seemed to trust him more.

To give a simple example, when Xiao Lan used to take him into the inner hall of the Dragon Palace, he passed so many strange sceneries and saw so many different treasures.

But Xiao Lan never explained them to him.

But now, after passing through a maple forest, Xiao Lan naturally explained it to him, which shows that she cares more about his feelings.

In other words, Xiao Lan seemed to be treating him as one of their own.

But thinking about it carefully, this was normal. He had, in a way, saved the Dragon Queen's life.

Moreover, when the Dragon Queen was unconscious, he had carried her back. They would definitely remember this act of saving their master.

After passing through this Blue Maple Forest, Xu Ming saw a thick white fog in front of him.

The visibility of this white fog was less than 5 meters, and the fog also carried a bit of fragrance, like the scent of gardenias and osmanthus.

The fog was also very moist.

Immediately afterward, Xu Ming heard the gurgling sound of flowing water.

Xiao Lan stopped and turned around, bowing to Xu Ming, "Sir Xu, you can just walk straight ahead. Her Majesty is already waiting in front."

Xu Ming nodded and returned the greeting to Xiao Lan, "Thank you for showing me the way, Miss Xiao Lan."

Xiao Lan smiled and said, "You are too polite, Young Master. This servant will be waiting here."

Xu Ming straightened up and continued walking forward. The further he went, the thicker the white fog in front of him became.

Even later, it was as thick as a layer of white cotton, as if it could be cut open with a scalpel.

Xu Ming felt that he had walked about half a kilometer forward.

Finally, the thick fog gradually dissipated, replaced by the increasingly loud sound of water.

At this time, Xu Ming heard clearly that it was not the sound of flowing water, but the sound of a waterfall falling.

And just as the white fog in front of him completely dissipated, Xu Ming stood by the side of a pool of water.

In the pool, the Dragon Queen was soaking in the water, her hair floating on the surface of the water.

Crystalline water droplets slid smoothly down the Dragon Queen's fair skin, completely dripping back into the pool without any hindrance.

The pool water just reached the Dragon Queen's northern hemisphere.

The Dragon Queen's slender swan neck and the exquisite collarbone, as well as the full and exaggerated northern hemisphere below the collarbone, were completely displayed in front of Xu Ming.

However, if you looked further down into the water, you could only vaguely see a blurred figure, and nothing else.

But even so, the looming feeling was even more provocative.

Beside the Dragon Queen, golden dragons leaped out of the pool, then dissipated and re-condensed.

The ripples of spiritual energy around gave people a very comfortable feeling, like a spring breeze.

Xu Ming guessed that the Dragon Queen had been recuperating in this pool since she came back.

Originally, Xu Ming thought that he would no longer have to go to the bedroom and be forced to take advantage of the Dragon Queen.

But he didn't expect that he would come to the place where the Dragon Queen was bathing.

Although he couldn't see underwater, in another sense, the Dragon Queen was indeed seen naked by him.

Xu Ming was sure that, apart from the Dragon Queen's old lover from ten thousand years ago, he was definitely the second man to have seen this scene.

Xu Ming calmed his mind, thinking that since he couldn't escape anyway, he cupped his fist and bowed to the woman in front of him, "Your subject pays respects to Your Majesty."

Xu Ming's voice slowly came, and then her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and those light blue eyes slowly opened.

The Dragon Queen glanced at Xu Ming, and in the next moment, the Dragon Queen raised her arm from the water, and water droplets kept dripping down her fair arm.

The Dragon Queen gently pointed at Xu Ming, and in an instant, all the clothes on Xu Ming's body burst open.

Xu Ming: "? ? ?"

When Xu Ming stood naked in front of the Dragon Queen, what appeared in Xu Ming's heart was not shyness but confusion.

Xu Ming was completely dumbfounded. He never thought that he would be stripped naked.

In other words, was he being molested by this Eternal Empress?

Xu Ming didn't know what to say.

But Xu Ming didn't need to say anything. The Dragon Queen hooked her finger at Xu Ming.

Xu Ming felt an invisible suction, and his entire body fell straight into the pool, splashing a large burst of water.

Then Xu Ming couldn't resist at all, and his body swam towards the Dragon Queen's side.

The closer he got to the Dragon Queen, the faster Xu Ming's heart beat.

Various guesses appeared in Xu Ming's heart.

The boldest and most reasonable guess was that he might have saved the Dragon Queen, and then the Dragon Queen thought he was her reincarnated lover.

These two emotions accumulated together and finally erupted after life and death.

The Dragon Queen was about to execute him on the spot in this pool.

Fortunately, when Xu Ming was only half a meter away from the Dragon Queen, he finally stopped, and Xu Ming floated in front of the Dragon Queen.

Looking at the woman in front of him, even at a distance of half a meter, Xu Ming seemed to be able to feel the softness of the other party through the water flow.

The Dragon Queen blinked her eyes, but she didn't speak, she just watched silently.

Xu Ming: "Your Majesty?"
