As Xu Shan discreetly observed the young man, he caught sight of Ji Yang tapping the empty air with his hand. The movement was swift and nonchalant, seeming to indicate that Ji Yang thought no one was watching him. Despite this, Xu Shan's keen attention did not miss the action. 'His actions... How peculiar... It's as if there's a window…

"I shall honor my grandfather's promise and accept this engagement," declared the Eldest Princess, rising to her feet and speaking with her signature melodic yet cold tone. Although she spoke about accepting the engagement, there was no hint of any emotion in her gaze toward the young man standing before her. Unlike the people here, her father and she knew that the letter wasn't a lie. In fact, her grandfather had already told them before dying that he had arranged her engagement with a young…

"From this point, we should leave the Gryphons behind. It'll be too eye-catching if we land like this." Ye Han brought their ascent to a halt as they arrived above the Capital of Esti Kingdom. He disembarked from the Gryphon and gracefully hovered mid-air, exhibiting a perception of unrestrained movement akin to walking or even soaring in the air. He reached out his hand toward Xu Shan who couldn't fly without external help. As Xu Shan grasped Ye Han's hand, an inexplicable force surged through his…

**** "Why can't I see anything?!" A voice filled with frustration resounded throughout the bedroom of the Qin Dynasty's Emperor. Qin Ye sat on the edge of his bed, clutching the Book of Destiny tightly. Ever since his return, he couldn't shake off the feeling of uneasiness. This was the first instance where things didn't go according to his plan. The future that he had envisioned through the Book had failed him, leaving him feeling uncertain and unnerved. Upon his return to the Dynasty, he…

**** "Are you still upset about what happened back here?" Three hours had elapsed since Yu Fei's accusation against Qin Ye. The palace had resumed its quiet ambiance. However, Xu Shan seemed visibly irritated, tugging on his fingers as though lamenting over something. Despite the food being placed on the table in front of him, he hadn't taken a single bite. "I made a big mistake this time... I underestimated him. I might've created an even bigger mess for me." Xu Shan's frustrated voice echoed in…

"I'm so glad that you're still alive! Your father was so scared!" Qin Ye said compassionately. "As your father said, no one can harm you now! We've already caught the culprit!" Yu Fai lifted her head and gazed at Qin Ye in the distance. His gentle, mellifluous voice blended perfectly with his extremely handsome appearance, emanating an Overlord-like aura. As he caught Yu Fei's gaze, he flashed a warm smile. But he was surprised to see her tremble instead. The daughter of the Celestial Palace Master…

"Why did you do it?" Xu Shan asked. He remained next to his father, maintaining a safe distance from Qin Ye. He knew he wasn't strong enough to face these people with himself at the moment. However, he wasn't scared either. He was just worried that Qin Ye might go crazy and attack him after the reveal. Qin Ye furrowed his brow in confusion. "What do you mean?" he queried, wondering if Xu Shan had somehow found out about his past schemes against them. It seemed unlikely - even his closest confidants…

Seeing a lack of resistance, even the Celestial Palace Master was surprised. He had been observing Xu Shan since the start. However, the man showed no fear or hesitation. Even when he was asked to use the herb that would make him unable to tell a lie for a day, he was still willing! Upon witnessing this, the Celestial Palace Master felt some hesitancy. Was he truly guiltless? Were they misguided in their assumption based on an anonymous letter? As he dwelled on the matter, his uneasiness grew. The…

As soon as his father arrived, Xu Shan coughed up yet another mouthful of blood. His face looked as pale as a sheet of thin paper, indicating that he was truly injured. The Eternal Emperor grabbed Xu Shan's wrist, checking if there were any internal injuries that could be life threatening. Fortunately, there was nothing like that. Still, without hesitation, he produced the most valuable healing pill in the Dynasty and gave it to Xu Shan, despite the fact that his injuries were not severe. Xu Shan…
