A mysterious figure, tall and slender, materialized before the Crown Prince as though emerging from the shadows. His penetrating gaze remained fixed on the Crown Prince, an air of aloofness about him. "Your highness," he began coolly, "your role as the Crown Prince is your sole concern. Matters concerning the Mu Clan, whether conducted humbly or aggressively, are our affairs alone." He went on to impart a somber perspective, "Historically, kingdoms have rarely endured beyond five centuries; they…

Master Bai observed the swaying bamboo forest and eventually ceased his frowning. In a soft tone, he spoke, "Regardless of what unfolds in the next three days, I wish not to be disturbed... I need to find relaxation and inner calm." He chuckled casually, the weight of his responsibilities notwithstanding. "The more intense the situation, the greater my need for serenity. Perhaps I ought to grant myself a vacation..." Master Bai mused, his demeanor surprisingly relaxed. "Even with the weight of the world…

Meng Huai-Qing held Su Ye-Yue's hand with an unwavering resolve in her heart. The well-being of her disciple was of paramount importance. Su Ye-Yue needed immediate care, specifically a bone-ablution to replace her muscles and bones with the Universal Spiritual Root and Ingenious Jade Bones. Delaying this crucial process would only result in more complications, and Su Ye-Yue was no longer a child; swift action was necessary. Meng Huai-Qing contemplated the newfound power she had sensed earlier. While…

Cha-Eun Xiao replied with a hint of sulking in his tone, "Let's drink something from your stash today. Next time, I promise to prepare some fine liquor for you." "Great! It's a deal!" Song Jue responded cheerfully. He was always eager to share drinks with his nephew. He was open to all kinds of liquor, with one notable exception—medical liquor. He would prefer to partake in any other type of drink rather than one intended for male enhancement. The two of them retrieved bottles of liquor and filled…

If the enemy wished to persist in battle, they were now compelled to navigate a circuitous route around the newly formed mountains. To circumvent this natural obstruction, they would need to travel for tens of thousands of miles—an endeavor beyond their means. Should they attempt a direct assault, the presence of the iron-clad castle meant that a mere five thousand defenders would suffice. As the saying goes, "One man guards the pass, and ten thousand are unable to get through." Even if their…

In response to Princess Hua-Yang's heartfelt request, Meng Huai-Qing agreed to accompany Su Ye-Yue to the south and personally speak to Prince Hua-Yang. Princess Hua-Yang had a compelling reason for this request – her daughter was leaving home, and there was no guarantee they would ever see her again for the rest of their lives. It was essential for her to bid farewell to her father in person. Meng Huai-Qing had grown fond of the girl during their brief encounter. She didn't want Su Ye-Yue to harbor…

Cha-Eun Xiao responded to Meng Huai-Qing's earlier statement with a serene smile. "There is rarely anything absolute in this world," he mused, his eyes filled with unwavering determination. "I believe that I will find a way to reunite with Su Ye-Yue." Meng Huai-Qing offered a thoughtful response, neither confirming nor denying his belief. However, as the conversation continued, Su Ye-Yue's emotions reached a breaking point. Tears welled up in her eyes as she grappled with the impending separation.…

"In this world, women find themselves in such a marginalized position," the woman mused, her eyes fixed on the ethereal white clouds drifting across the sky. Her voice carried a sense of quiet contemplation. "Men can revel in drink and merriment without reproach, while women are denied such pleasures. Men can hold multiple lovers in their embrace, even take multiple spouses, while women are expected to remain chaste. Men can act without constraint, while women face condemnation for even the slightest…

"What is your name, girl?" The woman's voice held a gentle, inquisitive tone as she turned her attention toward Su Ye-Yue. With Cha Eun Xiao's hand firmly grasped in her own, Su Ye-Yue replied in a quivering voice, "I am Su Ye-Yue. Thank you for saving Xiao Xiao." The woman acknowledged the name with a nod, her enigmatic eyes gleaming with approval. "Su Ye-Yue. A beautiful name indeed. As the night resuscitates, there shines the moon," she praised cryptically, paying little heed to the gratitude…

In the wake of the woman's gesture, blood began to pool on the floor, a gruesome mosaic of flesh and gore coalescing like convergent streams. The crimson tide flowed like a river, tracing a morbid path down the mountainside. As for the men who had provoked this macabre transformation, well... they were long past being. An anguished cry escaped Su Ye-Yue's lips as she beheld the unimaginable. She regarded the woman with a mixture of terror and disbelief, trembling uncontrollably. Her eyes mirrored her…
