The gravity of Cha-Eun Xiao's condition weighed heavily on everyone's minds, especially for Minister Jiang and the Right Prime Minister's families. His death would not only result in their executions but could also drive Cha Nan-Tian to madness, potentially severing his longstanding ties with the royal family. The king was acutely aware that if Cha-Eun Xiao perished, an infuriated Cha Nan-Tian might forsake their sworn brotherhood entirely. The mere hope of Cha Nan-Tian not seeking retribution was a…

Wan Zheng-Hao watched as Feng Zhi-Ling, now his superior, continued to revel in his amusement. His face twitched with a mixture of embarrassment and resignation, but he knew better than to confront his newfound boss about it. Feng Zhi-Ling's gleeful demeanor had made it abundantly clear that things had shifted in their dynamic. After a while, the laughter subsided, and they found themselves sitting together, the air less tense than before. It was the first time they had engaged in a friendly, albeit…

—Orhhh… Splash…— Wan Zheng-Hao's stomach rebelled, expelling its contents in a torrential upheaval. Each retch and expulsion echoed through the room in a symphony of distress—Splash… Master Guan, still savoring the lingering flavors of the sumptuous meal, never expected to witness his boss's sudden and explosive gastrointestinal outburst. Unpleasant matter erupted from Wan Zheng-Hao's mouth, landing on Master Guan's face and splattering across his body. Stunned by the unexpected turn…

An enormous wooden tub, towering as tall as a grown man, occupied the space before Wan Zheng-Hao. The room was filled with an anticipatory silence, a weighty atmosphere that hung in the air like an unspoken promise. Wan Zheng-Hao, his resolve etched across his face, unsealed the bottle with a sense of trepidation that betrayed his eagerness. The contents of the bottle held the potential to change his life, but he couldn't help but harbor doubts deep within. "If it truly lives up to the tales, then…

Cha Eun Xiao's gaze bore into Wan Zheng-Hao, carrying an icy intensity that emphasized his newfound dominance. He spoke with an air of authority, his words laced with promise, "Wan Zheng-Hao, if you satisfy me, please me… I can make you live forever, and I can give you a normal man's body, with which you will enjoy all the pleasures in the world, endlessly." Gone were the titles and honorifics. He had ceased addressing him as 'Wan' or 'Boss Wan,' opting instead for the use of his full name—Wan…

Gu Jin-Long had always demanded the finest treasures, but due to his exacting standards, there were few items that met his approval. Consequently, Wan Zheng-Hao had never really bestowed many treasures upon Gu Jin-Long. However, now that Feng Zhi-Ling was entering the picture, he feared that virtually every treasure acquired by Ling-Bao Hall would be seized by him for the production of dan beads. This meant that the resources that had once been under Wan Zheng-Hao's control would now fall into Feng…

Considering the condition of the Land of Han-Yang, Cha-Eun Xiao realized that reaching the second level of his cultivation would require a considerable amount of time. In this grading system, advancing from the first level of the Grade of Diyuan to the second was equivalent to doubling one's power. Achieving the third level would necessitate eight times the power, while the fourth level would require sixty-four times as much power. The prospect of reaching the second level of the East-rising Purple…

Song Jue swiftly responded, "I am Song. Master Sun, please, speak your mind." Master Sun fell silent for a moment before he spoke, his voice filled with urgency, "We will certainly do all within our power to save him. However, even with our best efforts, we can only extend Lord Ye's life by ten days. Maintaining his life during this period will exact a substantial toll, and there are certain decisions we are reluctant to make, to be honest." Song Jue inquired, "What do you mean, Master Sun?"…

"Since you have acknowledged your transgressions, you must accept the consequences," the king declared resolutely. "Henceforth, you shall return to your homes and confine yourselves there. You are forbidden from engaging in any form of political activity or making contact with anyone. Those who defy my order shall face the annihilation of their entire clans." The assembled officials were left in stunned silence. Kneeling on the ground, they trembled with trepidation. They dared to lift their heads,…

The king's inquiry reflected his deep concern over the kingdom's dire predicament, especially the looming threat from all four cardinal directions. After briefly perusing the reports from the other three fronts, his gaze returned to the northern report. He maintained a composed demeanor as he mused aloud, "The timing of these developments on the three fronts seems remarkably synchronized—a calculated move, no doubt. It appears the four enemy forces have orchestrated this meticulously, suggesting a…
