Chapter 690 The Remarkable Person
A solemn sigh escaped Lin Wanrong's lips. "Well," he lamented, "an occasional visit isn't too much to ask for, is it? A bit of fun! But at the very least, you should let me be awake for it! Is it better to enjoy alone or to share the joy with others?"
His words, profound and startling, even echoed the sayings of the sages. The young palace maid, her eyes wide in astonishment, gazed at him. Suddenly, with a gasp, her cheeks flushed...

"Where, where!" Lin Wanrong awkwardly laughed off his embarrassment, gently taking her hand as they hurriedly made their way inside.
Outside the door, patients patiently queued, daring not to disturb the doctor within. Yet, when they saw this unknown youth brazenly bypassing the long line and storming inside, they couldn't help but stare in anger, their eyes fixated on him with irritation.
Lin Wanrong chuckled merrily, pres...

"The ability to make himself invisible, huh?" pondered Yuder, his eyes narrowing. As he gazed towards Kishiar, the latter met his gaze with a solemn expression.
There were various types of stealth abilities. Most commonly, they involved remaining motionless in shadows or amidst the terrain, briefly concealing one's form. The kind that allowed movement while hidden was exceedingly rare. Even rarer were those abilities that enabled attacking while unseen...

The manager was promptly taken down by an object thrust into his back. It was Kishiar who had effortlessly drawn the old, heavy candlestick that had viciously struck the back of the manager's head, without even touching it.
Yuder, paying no attention to the groaning manager rolling on the floor, opened his mouth.
"Although the information provided by Elpkins and others was useful, this place is indeed structurally complex."

The next day, the sound of Nukijo's gang unlocking the door echoed through the space.
As Yuder slowly opened his eyelids, he met Kishiar's already open gaze. Kishiar placed a finger over his lips and smiled mischievously, signaling 'shush.'
The gang's coarse laughter filled the air as they grumbled about the warped door, cursing the fate of a fallen comrade who had caused them such trouble. They speculated about the new arrivals, assuming one to ...

The King of Goryeo personally introduced General Lin to the multitude of officials within the court, their titles ranging from Chief Political Advisor to various bureau heads, with names both peculiar and complex. This proved to be a headache even for the astute General Lin.
Amidst the crowd, General Lin's gaze fell upon a familiar face – it was none other than Prince Yi Seung-Jae, who once sought to marry Princess Nishang of Great Hu...

It is said that this person was knowledgeable about both ancient and modern times, foreseeing events five hundred years into the past and future. Even Master Gu, a scholar of immense erudition, co...

Lin Wanrong was overjoyed beyond measure, hastily climbing up the lookout tower. At the horizon where sea and sky converged, a tiny black dot faintly emerged. Although it appeared blurry and distant, the outline of land was discernible. Judging by the direction and distance traveled, it was undoubtedly Goryeo.
His mood uplifted, he joyfully took the Eldest Miss's delicate hand and leaped down from the tower, excitedly exclaiming, "B...

The woman's body shook violently.

As if responding to her shock, the faint mist wrapping around her body suddenly burst explosively.

'She's weak. The slightest backlash from her surprised reaction to us could overwhelm her... But if this continues, she'll lose control.'

Sitting back-to-back with her on the deck, they gazed at the distant setting sun, listening to the gentle roar of the sea. Countless seabirds circled overh...
