Ao Tianhai nodded and stood up. His height, much taller than Aldrian's, made Aldrian have to look upward if he wanted to see his face.
Remembering something, Aldrian spoke to Ao Tianhai.
"Ah, right. I came here with my wives. If my wives ask about your identity, just don't say anything about you being from the higher heavens or any of your connection with me. Don't tell my past to them. Is that clear?"
Ao Tianhai nodded without hesitation. "Yes, Your Majesty."
Although he replied calmly, inwardly he was surprised as Aldrian had said that he already had wives.
In the many stories told about the legend of the Absolute Ruler, he was described as a solitary emperor, with no woman by his side as a companion.
His existence itself was too high and too sacred for any woman of that era to harbor romantic feelings for him. That was why, despite the countless beauties who revered him, no one dared to entertain such thoughts, as doing so would have been considered blasphemous.
