There is not only the royal family but other noble families that have been guarding and keeping the kingdom for centuries.
The royal city is however backed up by one of the first-tier sects in the whole world called the Heavenly sect. The current king as well as the former kings are all disciples of this sect.
In some sense, it can be regarded that the kingdom is under the rule and protection of the Heavenly Sect. Although the sect doesn’t interfere much with the governance, it plays a huge role just like the church does in any country in the modern world where Alayna came from.
The royal family has been in power for over three centuries and so far, five kings had ruled over the kingdom. Some died due to war, some suffered some cultivation backlash and others died due to old age for those whose cultivation wasn’t high enough.
The royal family’s name is Shepard and just like their name they protect their citizens from any harm, there haven’t been any complaints so far about their ruling, at least not too much.
The current king is aged 58 years old and he looks so young that one can mistake him for someone in his thirties. Just like every king and a powerful man, in a world where men can have multiple wives, the king currently has one official queen, four noble consorts, and several other lower concubines for his enjoyment.
His harem alone is enough to make a town, his children are plenty, luckily the wives don’t kill each other’s offspring that much. There is a heavy penalty for killing the royal family’s offspring.
The king’s cultivation is a secret and not many people know which stage he is at exactly but everyone knows that he is very powerful and someone that is not to be messed with.
Apart from the royal family, several powerful families have a standing in the city, the other great family is one of the queens and they are the military family.
The queen is very young and barely in her thirties, the king took a queen later after filling his harem with beautiful ladies. He didn’t want to rush into making someone the mother of the kingdom, he wanted to be sure.
So, the lady he picked for his queen was someone he truly loves and cares for. However, this didn’t mean that the king only favors the queen, he still takes care of everyone in the family and that including his several women.
The king’s children were so many but each child always receives what he or she deserves. Among the king’s children, there is one particular child that makes people wonder if she was picked somewhere instead of carrying the royal blood.
Princess Adele is currently at the age of 27 and she married not just once but twice and got divorced. When she first got married to her first husband, she was just sixteen and this was because she really liked this man.
He was just like a knight in shining armor, he was not stronger than her but since she likes him then she decided to be with him. This is how they got married, it never even registered in her mind that he wasn’t interested in her at all.
That was until he found someone that he truly liked and the princess was made to wear a green hat. She was so mad that she killed the adulterer in rage, she was barely eighteen at that time.
This is how the princess lost her first husband and became single once more. The king and her consort mother were very disturbed by this but they couldn’t be harsh on their child so she was put under house arrest for three years.
The princess abided by the law and behaved; she didn’t cause any trouble for the family. The king’s heart softened and finally let her out, the princess of course was very happy and she looked very different from before.
To let her settle down, another husband was found for her again and she didn’t oppose it, since love failed the first time, maybe an arranged marriage will work.
She was hoping that it was going to work but damn that the second husband was a complete as****. She tried persevering in the marriage, in the end instead of killing the ba***d husband, she filed for divorce and submitted the long list of evidence to her father.

She was granted the divorce and became finally free. After seeing how unlucky their daughter was in love, they decided to not force her into anything anymore and just let her do whatever she wants.
This is how the princess who owns her own Manor has been single for over two years and this wasn’t the shocking part, the princess was very fond of keeping boy toys and her Manor has around five of them so far.
So many people feel sorry for these young men who fell into the clutches of this powerful princess and some envy them for getting the attention of a princess, after all, they receive everything that they want.
No one really knows what happens in the princess Manor but one thing was for sure, there haven’t been any unfair and wrongful deaths done there.
One day Princess Adele was receiving a body massage when one of her boy toys came to her with some newspaper. In the newspaper, it was written that there was some mysterious shop in the middle of nowhere and the place was just epic and doing wonders.
Her curiosity for interesting things was piqued so she sent some people to go and check the place out, and one of the people sent there was that same boy toy that gave her the news.
Adele wasn’t that ruthless like what the people labeled her as, her heart was closed off but she loves indulging in many interesting things and this includes being with people of the opposite sex.
Her boy toys were hers to keep and admire, so not many people know their real faces. They may walk right there in the crowd and people will not be able to identify them.
People think that these people are locked up in a cage but only the people in question know that the freedom they have is so bountiful and there hasn’t been a case where they were abused or mistreated.
The boy toy who left for Draak was a martial disciple intermediate stage, he wouldn’t have been that strong if the princess had not saved his life back then.
His loyalty to her was 100% and couldn’t be wavered by anyone or anything.
As a cultivator, he didn’t take a very long time to reach the place where the shop was and just like any other new person there, he was very shocked but gathered information to know more about the place.
He was also lucky to have witnessed someone getting zapped after causing trouble at the shop. He understood the main reason why the princess sent him, she was interested in the shop but after seeing this scene that others weren’t fazed with, he noted in his head that the plan was a crazy idea and shouldn’t be implanted.
There was no way they will be able to fight with whoever was behind this shop. He stayed for seven days and kept the food that he bought, he wanted to bring some to the city and let his lover have a taste.
Although it wasn’t possible to take over the shop, it wouldn’t hurt to enjoy some snacks. When he returned to the royal city, the princess was of course with the other lovers and this didn’t hurt much as it did in the beginning.
All the princess’s lovers knew that in the princess’s heart they all have the same standing. She didn’t love any of them but she cared enough for them and that was enough.
Getting jealous was just a waste of time and too much energy will be wasted for nothing.
"Did you travel safe?" Adele asked as soon as she saw that her other lover was back with a smile on her face.
The other lover simply nodded at him and continued to give Adele a shoulder massage.
"Yes, I did and I brought back some good stuff," he answered as she found a place to sit by her side.
Adele motioned for the massage to end and the rough hands stopped, "show me."
It was on this day that Adele saw for herself and tasted with her own tongue that some things were just too great and too wonderful to let go of.
Her mind was already creating plans on how to take over this shop but what her lover told her practically poured cold water on top of her head.
She couldn’t help but shake with fear when she thought of what trouble she was going to send herself into if she had really done that.
"They are that powerful?" Adele nervously asked.
"Yes, I am afraid that they are. We can just enjoy the food there and if you want to enjoy more, we can consider taking a vacation, we haven’t gone anyway in a very long time," the boy toy suggested.
Adele looked at her lover with stars in her eyes and kissed the other happily,
"that’s a wonderful idea. I will visit the palace tomorrow!"
