As Lin Qian spoke, his tone was filled with a fierce resolve.
Hearing his words, everyone present couldn't help but smile. They didn't need Lin Qian's reminder—they had already resolved to hold themselves to the highest standards.
After hearing Lin Qian's speech, a sense of anticipation filled their eyes. The members of the Temple of Fate began to imagine what the future of the Huaxia Empire would look like.
For each of them, the current situation was the realizatio...

Seeing this, Lin Qian quickly helped Leng Wuyi up and asked with a bit of amusement, "What are you doing? What mistake have you made?"
"It's shameful that we initially thought of Your Majesty as just another tyrant who exploits the people, treating ordinary folks as nothing. It wasn't until my daughter described her experiences in Xiaoling City that we finally realized the truth." As he spoke, Leng Wuyi couldn't help but recall his earlier suspicions that Lin Qian was searching f...

When Qiu Ling took out the token, everyone in the room was stunned.
Especially Leng Wuyi and Qiu Xian—they could hardly believe that their daughter had gone out to gather information and, in the blink of an eye, had become a citizen of the Huaxia Empire?
"And not only that, I am also the City Lord of Xiaoling City!" Qiu Ling's tone carried a hint of pride as she flipped the token over for everyone to see.
The front of the token was engraved with four large character...

In a secluded forest at the border between the Wei Kingdom and the Autumn Kingdom, illusionary formations surrounded the area, enveloping it in a protective shroud.
Within this forested area stood a simple structure, inside which a number of people were seated.
These people all appeared quite young, without a single elderly figure among them. At the head of the group sat Leng Wuyi, the Hall Master of the Temple of Fate, and Qiu Xian, the Vice Hall Master.
This place w...

Within the capital of the Qin Dynasty, inside the grand Human Emperor's Hall of the imperial palace, Lin Qian looked at the resplendent golden throne, and with a helpless smile, turned to the three elders beside him: "I imagined many possibilities, but I never thought it would turn out like this."
Lin Qian felt utterly surprised, and how could the three elders—Fang Shuiwen, Zhou Yian, and Yang Guixiang—not feel the same?
The current Human Emperor, Qin Lingtian, and the ...

As Fa Zheng arrived in Shouchun, Zhuge Jin was resting on the table, and Zhou Yu, after completing the governance plan for Yuzhou, finally had time to accompany him. Meanwhile, the Yuan family elders were busy fantasizing about capturing Xuzhou and establishing the foundation of the Yuan family's dominance. Of course, this celebration wouldn't be complete without banquets and dances performed by maidservants in the hall. In short, the Yuan family was in high spirits, feeling that victo...

As Fa Zheng pressed on toward Shouchun, Chen Xi had already begun to settle matters with the aristocratic families of Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Taishan. Of course, as for those families in Xuzhou who had entirely chosen a different path, Chen Xi could only ignore them for now.
"Patriarch," Chen Shang appeared before Chen Xi after taking a day to rest, adhering strictly to the etiquette expected of an elder towards the family head, without any additional undertones.
"Take a seat...

Looking at his troops, Fa Zheng felt somewhat helpless. If only they had more cavalry, they could make a quick assault and reach Shouchun by tomorrow while maintaining their combat effectiveness. Unfortunately, Taishan wasn’t suitable for raising horses, and wild horses didn't naturally thrive there.
As for buying horses, they had already acquired as many as possible. It was impossible to get more, as Yuan Shao had nearly monopolized the horse trade in the northern regions, mak...

For those below the aristocratic class, the power of the great families seemed invincible. However, for those above this class, the intricate web of connections that these families relied on was full of holes. Although powerful, they were bloated and riddled with weak points.
Fa Zheng's arrogance left the noble families of Runan fully aware that he had no interest in communicating with them. He brazenly declared his intention to go challenge Yuan Shu, leaving the Runan families s...

While Chen Xi still found time for romance at home, Fa Zheng and Gan Ning had already plunged deep into Runan. Runan, which had long been a power base for the Yuan family, crumbled almost instantly under Gan Ning's attack, offering little resistance before the battle was already over.
From the north to the south, the moment Fa Zheng marched out of Shanyang, he had ambitions to swallow all of Yuzhou. His army swept through the land with unstoppable momentum, and they encountered a...

Liu Bei’s words left Chen Xi momentarily speechless, causing him to pause in contemplation.
“Zichuan, as you once said, a leader’s private morality is not the real issue. Over time, I’ve thought about it a lot, and I’ve come to understand the truth in those words,” Liu Bei said, his gaze distant and serene before he turned his eyes back to Chen Xi.

Chen Xi's intuition was sharp. Upon learning that Cao Cao had entered Sili, he had a feeling that Cao Cao would obtain control over the Emperor. However, what intrigued Chen Xi was how Cao Cao would manage to achieve this, especially considering his current weak position.
As for the trouble Cao Cao would cause Liu Bei by gaining control of the Emperor, Chen Xi could only say that unless Cao Cao and the Emperor formed a relationship as close as that of Emperor Ai and Dong Xian, a ...

What was even more important was that the internal energy accumulated during the Refining Qi into Steel stage was different from the internal energy accumulated during the Internal Qi Projection stage.

Chen Xi looked awkwardly at the massive rooster, which was nearly one and a half meters tall. His own dog wasn’t particularly large, only about a foot long, so no wonder its back had been scratched. For a chicken to grow this big was quite an accomplishment.

"Small glass items can be handled by Lord Xuande's small glass kiln. The proper glass materials should be produced in the official kiln. This way, we avoid giving the scholars any leverage," Chen Xi suggested.

Beside Li Hao, the barrier shimmered as the sound of the Dao echoed in his Sea of Consciousness. The Dao's aura, like a cloud of mist, surrounded him. His figure became even more ethereal amidst the hazy atmosphere, making it hard for others to look away.

"Fortune, like a tangible substance, even just a small cup of this can change an ordinary person's fate." Zhao Xing gazed at the golden cup of fortune.
The increase in fortune manifests in different aspects.
It could be in romance, where one suddenly meets an outstanding partner and, by some stroke of luck, that person insists on marrying them.
Or it could appear in wealth, accumulating more in a few years than one could in a lifetime.
There’s also the possibi...

Unlike other techniques with multiple variations, Cloud Summoning always follows the path of overwhelming force.

Wolf Brother and the others exchanged glances and sighed heavily.
As coffin bearers, they had no real rights. If Zhang Feifan gave them an order, they had no choice but to follow it. Moreover, their bodies had been implanted with a special energy, a mark that allowed its caster to track their movements no matter where they went. There was no escape for them.
