Chapter 1768: 107 Chapter 1768: 107 As she drew near, Ariel Watson, her face already wet with tears, rushed directly into the ample chest of the Old King, sobbing uncontrollably.
At this point, the father and daughter, who had long been separated and even been through life-and-death situations several tis, finally touched each other again, if only in the consciousness of the Old King on his sickbed.
Witnessing this tender mont, Leo Ray and the others couldn’t help but be deeply moved, and they just watched quietly from the side.
Ever since the Old King had fallen grievously ill, Ariel Watson had escaped multiple assassination attempts after fleeing the Royal Capital, and then successfully fought her way back. How many tis she had skirted death did not need to be overemphasized.
And it was only due to the Old King’s will, stronger than that of ordinary n, that he had not succumbed to the ravaging of the mysterious illness and had persisted until now.
This made it all the more evident how difficult it was for this father and daughter, who had been apart more often than not since childhood and relied only on each other, to et again.
“Ariel, my good daughter, the most precious treasure in my world, how could you be here?”
Amidst his overwhelming excitent, the Old King’s face showed a hint of confusion as he asked, “Though I have been fighting in chaos, forgetting ti and everything, this clearly isn’t reality but rather, must it be, my inner world?”
“I don’t an to hide it from Father King, this is indeed your inner world, or rather, your subconscious,” Ariel Watson wiped away the tear stains from the corners of her eyes and nodded to the Old King, “And the reason we are here is because of a very ingenious Sleeping Array that allows us to speak directly to Father King.”
“So, that’s how it is. It’s just as I had expected.”
The Old King sighed and then his expression turned to one of resigned understanding as he murmured, “So you’re saying that my body, in reality, is on the verge of death, right?”
“Father King, don’t be so pessimistic, we will definitely find a way to save you!”
Ariel Watson denied the Old King’s words, speaking with urgent hope: “That’s also the main reason we ca here to see you.”
“Let’s not talk about that now. Just being able to see my daughter again satisfies my heart completely; the long struggle was not in vain.”
The Old King affectionately stroked Ariel Watson’s head, and his expression beca solemn as he inquired, “Ariel, what is the situation like in Coldfla Kingdom now? Your brothers, who have been forming cliques in the shadows and coveting the throne, probably have turned the country upside down, haven’t they?”
“In their desire for the throne, they will surely stop at nothing, even willing to ignite the flas of war throughout the Kingdom, drawing innocent civilians and soldiers once again into a whirlpool of blood and fire.”
The Old King sighed deeply, shaking his head helplessly: “It’s all my fault; I was so preoccupied with state affairs in the Northern Territory and neglected their upbringing, leaving these troubles to fester until today.”
“Father King, there is no need to worry. Coldfla Kingdom was indeed fragnted for a while, but now the shattered mirror has been made whole again.”
Ariel Watson smiled broadly and gently patted the Old King’s broad back.
“Ariel, tell quickly, which of your brothers has taken control of the Kingdom?”
Hearing Ariel Watson’s words, the Old King’s grave expression grew even more urgent as he hurriedly pressed.
