The days in the Sea Empire passed slowly; Yue Yue found herself living in a small, golden bubble.
Cang Yuze was rarely seen. As the Third Prince with countless responsibilities, he had completely buried himself in the royal apothecary.
The Poison of the Thousand Venom King Scorpion was a legendary toxin, and refining an antidote required his constant focus.
He was scouring ancient records and testing deep-sea herbs, driven by a silent desperation to save Xing Luoye for Yue Yue's sake.
Yue Yue often sat by her window, looking out at the sprawling coral towers of the capital.
She realized she had barely met the rest of the royal family.
Cang Yuze was the Third Prince, and Cang Yuzain was the Seventh.
This meant there were other siblings and an Emperor somewhere in this vast underwater empire.
