"Does this thing really have a value of ten billion coins?" Xu Shu asked in disbelief.
"If you don't believe me, go out and test it yourself. Just make sure not to actually spend it. I might need to destroy it later," Chen Xi casually tossed the note to Xu Shu.
In truth, Chen Xi was only giving Xu Shu this task to get him out of the way. When Xu Shu asked about the finances, Chen Xi hesitated. If Liu Bei's financial situation were managed like Yuan Shao's, it would be suffi...

Although Xin Xianying appeared a bit confused, Chen Xi knew very well that she had memorized every word he said. Sooner or later, she would understand.
Traveling from the city to Xin Pi’s place of confinement would take a considerable amount of time on foot, but by carriage, it was much faster. Before long, they arrived.
"We're here," Chen Xi said as he helped Xin Xianying down from the carriage. It was clear that her legs were a bit weak as she touched the ground.

Seeing the crowd of Ye City citizens who looked ready to act at any moment, and the still-struggling Xin Xianying by his side, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel a bit impressed. At least in this era, the common people didn’t lack courage.
As the crowd began to voice their complaints, Chen Xi cast a cold glance over them. He then raised his left hand, revealing the bright golden seal and purple ribbon, immediately signaling to everyone who he was. There weren't many people in Ye Ci...

The atmosphere was joyous, despite Xiahou Yuan's cold expression. Liu Bei and Guan Yu both offered toasts to him, and surprisingly, it had a positive effect. After all, with Liu Bei's status and Guan Yu's formidable reputation, having them offer you a drink was a sign of respect. As they continued to drink, Xiahou Yuan's attitude began to soften.
Given Liu Bei's rank and Guan Yu's strength, this act of toasting was a mark of esteem. Before long, Xiahou Yuan began to feel the effe...

In the end, Ma Chao still chose not to reconcile with Fa Zheng. His pride would not allow him to accept such a near-dismissive attempt at reconciliation.
"Why am I so weak!" At this moment, Ma Chao longed for power more than ever. He understood that his mind could never catch up to Fa Zheng’s in this lifetime, and the only way he might earn Fa Zheng’s respect would be through his martial prowess.
"From our first encounter, he still seemed to take me seriously. But after...

Up until now, Liu Bei had never done anything overly ambitious concerning the Han dynasty. On the contrary, he had always worked hard to restore it.
Thus, even when rumors spread among the various warlords that Liu Bei harbored intentions of usurping the throne, there was no evidence to support such claims. In fact, Liu Bei had consistently worked to reinforce the foundations of the Han dynasty, a fact acknowledged by even the wisest, including Cao Cao himself—though many were ...

As an unparalleled expert with the blade, Cai Yang was shaken to his core upon seeing the scar on the wall. He had already gauged the thickness and height of Ye City's walls, but the fact that someone could cleave through them with a single strike was beyond belief. Even with the support of an army, this shouldn't be possible!
Xiahou Yuan, too, was visibly shaken. He knew that Guan Yu was terrifyingly powerful, but seeing the mark left by that blade strike caused a shiver to run ...

"You said you had a grudge against General Ma Chao, right? Why did you chat with him for so long?" Zhang Fei asked curiously after Fa Zheng turned his horse around and rejoined him. Zhang Fei had already heard about Fa Zheng’s issue with Ma Chao.
From Zhang Fei's perspective, it was already commendable that Fa Zheng could separate public duty from personal feelings so well. If it were someone like Zhang Fei, he wouldn’t have let it slide without at least knocking someone down...

"Let's not even talk about whether what you say is true or not. Even if it is true, what qualifications does the Ma family have to stand on equal footing with my lord? Don't overestimate yourself." Fa Zheng shook his finger, stating the obvious—there were always people who couldn't see their true place.
Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, then slowly nodded and said, "You're right. I’ve been reckless. The Ma family indeed doesn’t have the qualifications to stand on equal term...

Watching Ma Chao leave, Fa Zheng smiled indifferently. He didn’t mind letting Ma Chao see his smile because everything he said was the truth. He also wasn't afraid of Ma Chao confronting Cao Cao, as certain things were almost inevitable.
The Qiang people’s recklessness, in this current situation, meant that any warlord who took control of Yong and Liang provinces would have to suppress them.
For the group of barbarians who believed they could take advantage of the inter...

Chen Shijie parked the Swordfish Airship in the square of the Inspectorate.
The first stop wasn't at the Shennong Division, but the Inspectorate. This was Zhao Xing's request.
Since he was tasked with a patrol mission, he had to go through the Inspectorate. Additionally, given the sheer number of people involved, Zhao Xing couldn't handle it alone—he needed the Inspectorate's support.

The sky was overcast, and the river water seemed to have turned black. The waves surged as the military palace moved with the large ship that floated on the river. Reflected upside down on the river surface were the three characters on the side hall plaque: "Inspectorate." Inside the hall, two judges held orders in their hands—one for execution in the left, and the other for capture in the right.

The Military Shennong Reserve has always been the target of major military recruitment efforts.
When it comes to domestic battles, the role of Military Shennong isn't as crucial.

One of the Eight-Star Martial Gods hesitated briefly, then turned to Qian Zhenmu, voicing his thoughts.
This sword's power was immense, and it even had a sword spirit within it.
As a Martial God who used swords, possessing such a powerful weapon would certainly be a great advantage for him.

Zhang Yuanji continued to charge forward, wielding his longsword as he rushed toward the warriors ahead.
Swoosh—
His speed had become even faster, more terrifying. In just a brief moment, he reached an area where more warriors were present and began to slash at them mercilessly.
The warriors of the Eastern Domain were almost entirely slaughtered by Zhang Yuanji!
Massive amounts of energy were continuously absorbed by his sword and transmitted into his body.

In fact, these were nine dragon veins!

What is meant by "castrated"? It means neutered.
