The Lunisolar Shadow, a mystical technique that veiled one's presence and rendered them utterly untraceable. Cha-Eun Xiao had come into possession of the sacred scroll containing the secrets of the Lunisolar Shadow after a fateful encounter in the Qing-Yun Realm. In this realm, he had crossed paths with a notorious one-footed robber, who had recently attained the elusive Grade of Daoyuan. The circumstances of their meeting had been nothing short of remarkable. At the time, Cha-Eun Xiao himself had stood…

In this very moment, as the tension hung heavy in the air, it was as if time itself had frozen. Regardless of the allegiances they had sworn to, whether they had pledged loyalty to the General's House or the Mu clan, all those present were rendered utterly stupefied. The steward's authoritative gesture, a mere wave of his hand, accompanied by the words "stop them," had prompted many to respond with a simple yet resolute "yes." The voices that rang out in agreement varied in tone and cadence, creating an…

"Erh?" Cha-Eun Xiao was taken aback. When he opened his eyes, Su Ye-Yue had vanished from sight. He could only hear her bashful voice, "Little Soya! Let's go! Let's escape from the sweet-talking man's house..." She had successfully slipped away from his grasp. As he overheard the guards conversing, the words were unintelligible, and then they ceased speaking. Cha-Eun Xiao rubbed his head and mumbled, "Why did she suddenly turn shy and leave... What's bothering her?" Perplexed, he continued, "Oh,…

"Hmm? Can't I come?" Su Ye-Yue's tone carried a hint of irritation upon hearing Cha-Eun Xiao's words. She wrinkled her petite nose and continued, "Sooner or later, this will be my house too! I'll be the vice-chairman here! I'm just checking out my future residence in advance. Is that a problem? It almost sounds like you don't want me here, deep down in your heart." She let out an indignant huff and playfully twisted the whip in her hands. Her narrowed eyes seemed to convey a clear message: "Cross me,…

"I have already received some information," the man in black began, his head respectfully lowered as he spoke with a hint of nervousness. "Our agents have successfully reached out to our sources and are diligently following your instructions. Your plan, my lord, is truly brilliant. It is merely a matter of time before we receive some promising news." A nod from the man in white acknowledged the report. "Very well," he replied, his tone carrying a sense of measured expectation. "I trust that you and our…

Amid the tumultuous rumors that continued to churn within the capital, there existed an enigmatic courtyard, seemingly untouched by the external chaos. Nestled at the heart of the capital, this courtyard was a testament to the adage that every inch of its grounds was worth its weight in gold. Surrounded by an expansive bamboo forest, it was encircled on three sides by a continuous range of small mountains, leaving only a single approach. One couldn't help but marvel at the immense wealth and…

After carefully retracting his finger, Cha-Eun Xiao found himself fixated on the newly formed cracks before him. The sheer magnitude of the damage he had inflicted with a mere tap left him utterly astounded. It was truly unbelievable that such significant destruction had been wrought by the mere flicker of his finger's power—a fraction of the gelid qi, casually harnessed. Silent contemplation enveloped him for a brief moment, his thoughts meandering through the newfound potential of the gelid qi as…

"Well… I don't put any stock in this fabricated information, but why is everyone so obsessed with it?" "You're utterly clueless! This is the Empire's ploy to undermine Cha-Eun Xiao." "Oh, goodness… This young lord has the worst luck. I doubt he'd even dare to harm a chicken, and now he's been framed for killing a skilled cultivator. He's become a murderer... heh heh... I'm at a loss for words regarding this obvious setup." "You know nothing! To eliminate someone, all you need is an excuse..."…

Cha-Eun Xiao's widened eyes displayed a curious innocence as he responded to the steward's inquiry about Mu Cheng-Bai. "What Mu Cheng-Bai? Who is Mu Cheng-Bai?" Cha-Eun Xiao feigned ignorance, keeping his tone casual and his expression inquisitive. It was a reasonable act to play, considering the implications of his actions. Mu Cheng-Bai was not just anyone; he was the crown princess's brother and the brother-in-law of the crown prince. Openly acknowledging his involvement in Mu Cheng-Bai's death could…

Wang Xiao-Nian's head hung low as he finally mustered the courage to confess. "It was... uh... because of me... I told him about Cha-Eun Xiao..." he admitted, his voice filled with guilt and remorse. The Crown Prince maintained his composure, his voice calm and collected as he probed further. "I see. Mu Cheng-Bai initially didn't know Cha-Eun Xiao. You harbored resentment against Cha-Eun Xiao for extorting you, and when you saw him, you incited Mu Cheng-Bai to confront him. Is that correct?" Wang…
