Chapter 115 – The Emperor’s Surprise

A person and a beast naturally chatted with each other. Ning Xuemo recounted the events that had happened to her, including what occurred in the Ministry of Justice Prison.

She was not afraid that Tom would leak what happened to others. For one thing, he was her friend, and secondly even if he did say it, no one would understand what he was saying.

Tom’s emotions stirred while listening to her story and even slapped the cage with his claws when he felt anxious. “Perverts! They’re all perverts! No one in the imperial family is a good person! Especially that old Emperor, he actually treated a hero’s daughter like that? His conscience must be broken! And that something Princess, she isn’t any good either…”

Ning Xuemo looked at him. “You better not curse the good people just because they’re in the same boat as the bad ones. That Crown Prince is actually not that bad. Were it not for his help in dealing with this issue, I wouldn’t have been able to get my reputation back and waltz back in here so openly.”

Tom’s eyes widened. “He is indeed not bad- Hey! You couldn’t have fallen for him right? Why are you speaking up for him? He just a pretty boy…[1]”

Ning Xuemo rolled her eyes. “You’re the one who’s fallen for him! Big sis here is just speaking the truth as it is. It doesn’t mean I have any of those intentions towards him. Besides, I don’t want to stay in this world forever; I still want to think of a way to return home.”

“Return? Wishful thinking! We transmigrated here; how the hell do we get back?!” Tom got dispirited as he let out a sigh. “I’ve had it up to here with this damn place! Backward, ignorant, and unable to communicate with them- They don’t understand our society’s mind-set.”

Ning Xuemo rubbed his large head. “Don’t get upset. Perhaps there is hope for a way back.”

“Don’t rub my head- Hey, what did you say? We still have hope to go back?!” His eyes turned round.

Ning Xuemo nodded. “These two days, while I’ve been at the Crown Prince’s residence, I read a few books since I was bored and unintentionally discovered references to a space-time portal. As long as we reach a certain level of training, we can go venture out to find it. Perhaps we might be able to return to our era.”

Tom’s spirit received a shock. “The space-time tunnel ought to exist. Our world theorized it before, though no one had ever found it.”
