Chapter 29: Celestial Deal
Emporer waited for Aenon to enter his pavilion. He has been waiting for this meeting for a long time. But he didn't expect Aenon, the most noblest and the greatest Water God to delay the meeting saying some dubious excuses all the time. It made Emporer Tai doubt his intentions.
Emporer Tai, one of the worst and the longest ruler to reign the heavens. The heaven has almost turned hell unable to find the difference at the same time when King Dritan had a good position in his Clan and Kingdom.
Aneon didn't want to cause any sort of chaos since his daughter has been involved in the issue.
"Aenon, took you so long to come report me," Tai said.
"Sorry you highness, I got caught up with some pretty issues in the realm that held me,"
he said.
"Have you been travelling around,"
"Not much your majesty, except once I took my daughter, Crown Princess Aqua to the borders to show the conditions under our realm, so she could learn them," he lied plainly.
"You daughter is one smart lady, bring her here someday, let my son Aaron meet her," Emporer Tai tried to do a match making in between. "They could get along well in the future, what do you say?" he asked Aenon. Aenon smiled listening to the emperor. "We are getting older, they are growing up, who else can take responsibility for then if not for us, who knows Aqua could even become the empress someday," Emperor Tai tried to boost and mislead at the same time with such words to Aenon, who stood with a stone heart. He had listened to the emperor before and tortured his daughter, training and cultivating from a very young age in the name of a great cause, strictly according to the emperor's set ups and conditions, but he definitely did not want his daughter as the daughter in law of the Empress and the Emperor, to use her more, drain her and ruin her life. He wished for a moment that changes happen. The political marriage was the last thing he wanted Aqua to go through and decided to find ways to drop them nicely
Tai prepared tea and cakes for them and got into a different discussion.
"I happened to hear about the disappearance of Master Bo Hai, what do you think? Could it be true that moon child is back?"
"You mean the son of,"
"Hush, don't mention that," Tai stopped Aenon.
"Just tell me if its true, am sure Aqua would know about this, didn't she go to that same school and graduate recently?"
"Aqua was shocked to know about it," Aenon began. "But the person she mentioned she said might not have such connections such as people say about moon child. He was only an assistant to her shifu,"
"Is it?" Tai asked pondering over what he just heard.
"Could be a rumour just to cause a trouble from the demons, they have been discussing and scheming with us alot for water,"
"Can't say, but why have they tightened their security and troops in the borders," Tai asked again.
"I have no idea about that one, I have yet to go there and see myself. I will send my elite troop to the borders today,'
"I have called for the Wind God and Sky Realm leaders to discuss the same, if you can stay here until then, we could get together and have a meal," Emperor Tai invited King Aenon to stay over as Aenon expected it. He wonders what Aqua's friend Ash would blabber to Tai.
