Both sides of the road were guarded by knights.

There were also mages from the royal family who were secretly on guard, protecting Lilia's safety.

Su Han had benefited from this.

Although Lilia's strength was very powerful now, it was still uncertain who would protect whom if an accident really happened.

But this was after all their duty.

Clear water cleared the way, flowers paved the way.

It appeared grand and luxurious.

Beside the road, the citizens of the Imperial City gathered and watched, wanting to witness Princess Lilia's glorious beauty.

For a moment, the crowd was full.

It could be said to be an empty alley filled with tens of thousands of people.

But unfortunately, when Lilia sat in the carriage, the surroundings were sealed off, but they had no chance to witness it.

This made the people somewhat disappointed.

However, being able to see her Highness Lilia return to the Imperial Capital was enough to make them excited.

From the day Lilia was born, countless bards on the continent had been singing about her deeds.

Almost everyone who was born in these ten plus years had grown up listening to Lilia's stories.

Even the elderly were already familiar with Lilia.

And after Lilia became the disciple of Shen Fa, in just a few short years, she became a tier-7 mage, pus.h.i.+ng her reputation to its peak!

On the continent, countless young people viewed Lilia as their idol.

And countless young mages viewed Lilia as their direction of advancement!

In addition, in the first 16 years when Lilia could not cultivate, although she had not left the imperial family, the development guidelines given to the Empire had been pa.s.sed down in the imperial court.

It caused many of the Empire's ministers to be filled with admiration.

It could be said that the current Lilia's prestige on the continent was even higher than the current Emperor of the Empire!

Her fame was only under the Great Mage Shen Fa.

But if it was a round of flattery and popularity, even the Shen Fa would have to admit defeat!

After all…

It was still the same old saying.

Who wouldn't like a beautiful thing?

The Imperial Palace within the Empire could be said to be heavily guarded.

No matter who it was, if they wanted to enter the Imperial Palace, they would have to go through several searches to ensure that there wasn't any danger before they were allowed to enter.

As for Lilia, as the Princess of the Empire, she had a n.o.ble status and a special status. Naturally, there was no need for her to be like this.

They smoothly arrived at the great hall of the imperial family. Lilia finally met her father.

“Respected Father, Your Majesty of the Empire, Lilia greets you.”

Lilia bowed slightly, expressing her respect to her father who was sitting on the throne.

“My dear child, you have finally returned.”

Seeing Lilia, the current Emperor of the Empire hurriedly got down from his throne and walked in front of Lilia, he patted her shoulder and said, “You are really ruthless. You have been out for so many years, yet you don't even write me a letter. Don't you know that I miss you very much here alone?”

The Emperor's words were filled with hidden bitterness.

He was almost fifty years old, but because of his square appearance and imposing manner, he looked very young.

However, his golden hair occasionally revealed his true age.

However, it had to be said that from his appearance, one could vaguely recognize that when he was young, the Emperor of the Empire was also a prince with a graceful bearing.

Otherwise, it was impossible for him to obtain the approval of Lilia's mother.

In front of outsiders, this Emperor of the Empire was very dignified, and his every move contained the bearing of the Emperor of the Empire.

However, this was only what he displayed.

In fact, this emperor was not good at handling the political affairs of these countries.

On the contrary, he only liked to read books, drink tea, and fiddle with some of his favorite gadgets.

If not for Lilia's mysterious mother and the help of Lilia, the Emperor of the Empire would have long made a mess of the Empire.

Before Lilia left the Imperial Capital and went to the Saint Laurent Magic Academy, she had left him a special reminder in order to let her father manage the Empire well.

It was precisely because of these reminders and the help of some of the Empire's ministers that the Empire operated as usual.

Simply put, Lilia's father was just an infatuated lover who loved to fall in love.

It was fortunate that Lilia's mother and Lilia had helped. Otherwise, the First Prince would have succeeded in ascending the throne back then.

It was an extremely miraculous ascension to the throne.

One had to say that fate was truly miraculous.

Even Lilia could not help but sigh at his good luck every time she heard her father mention the past.

Thinking of these things, Lilia said, “Aren't I already back?”

As she said this, she suddenly chuckled and said, “Besides, you probably don't want me to come back so early either…”

As soon as these words were said, the Emperor of the Empire immediately revealed an awkward expression.

How could he not be embarra.s.sed?

Although he had written a letter to greet his daughter three years ago, Lilia did not ask much about this matter and allowed him to get what he wanted.

But when Lilia really came back and asked about this matter, it always made the Emperor of the Empire feel embarra.s.sed that he had been caught red-handed.

After all, Lilia was the daughter of his beloved wife.

And he wanted to ask Lilia if he could marry another woman…

Seeing her father's embarra.s.sed expression, Lilia smiled and said, “Why? Is that woman not here?”

The Emperor of the Empire hurriedly said, “Because you came back, she went to the Holy Altar of the Holy See to pray for you.”

Lilia nodded.

In her opinion, bullying was fake. Hiding from her temporarily and observing from the shadows was real.

Thinking of this, Lilia turned around to look at Su Han behind her, but Su Han's attention was not on this matter at all.

This made Lilia a little angry. 'I asked you to come over to give me advice. What kind of att.i.tude is this!?'

Very soon, the Emperor of the Empire also noticed Su Han.

This was a person he had never seen before, following beside his daughter.

The Emperor of the empire asked, “Daughter, who is this?”

“His name is Su Han. He is the junior brother of the Great Mage Shen Fa. He is a powerful mage.”

Lilia did not hide anything and introduced him.

“h.e.l.lo, Your Majesty.”

Su Han bowed slightly.

“Mm.”

The Emperor of the Empire nodded slightly and did not pay too much attention to it.

When Su Han came to the side of the Emperor, he smelled a familiar aura.

It was the aura of those transmigrators and reincarnators.

The aura of the law of fate.

This Emperor of the Empire could not be a transmigrator. Then the only answer was that the woman who had bewitched the Emperor of the Empire was definitely a transmigrator.

That woman was not here right now. She was probably watching from the shadows. She probably wanted to see what kind of att.i.tude he, the disciple of the Great Mage Shen Fa, and the Princess of the Empire had.

Then, she would formulate a corresponding strategy according to her personality and obtain her approval?

Su Han sneered in his heart.

He could be considered understanding of Lilia's personality. This woman was very smart.
