Chapter 675 Till Death Do Us Part
Nalan the maid approached with a respectful tone, softly speaking, "Please, Khan Consort, take a bath and change clothes!"
Mention of bathing and changing clothes brought back the memory of negotiations at the country's border in days past, when Yueya'er had brought scented baths at night. The earth-shattering, relentless devotion still moved him deeply.
His heart sighed silently, as he gently squeezed his little sister's ha...

Though their hearts were entwined in love, they were from nations sensitive to each other's affairs. They had to exercise caution, as it was also a matter of respect for the younger sister.
Lin Wanrong, with his eyes blindfolded, groped around, picking up the scattered documents from the ground, and personally handed them to her. Yueya'er giggled softly, her eyes brimming with unshed tears.
The two shared an understanding beyond word...

"If you have anything to correct, please speak now. Do you have anything?"
"No... I..." stammered the merchant, his gaze wavering uncertainly between the paper where his statement was written, the face of Yuder, and Kishiar, who was sitting beside him. Recognizing the extraordinary items adorned by Kishiar, the merchant felt a chill of realization, making him the only one in the room able to somewhat accurately assess the vague figure of the man.

'How can one person possibly wear all these items? And why am I only realizing this now?'
The reason was, of course, due to the transformative magic tools worn exclusively by Kishiar and Nathan Zuckerman. These tools, crafted hundreds of years ago, possessed effects far more powerful than similar contemporary devices. Not only could they alter appearances, but they also slightly blurred the perception of those who saw them, making them virtually unreco...

"That's alright. I have my pen here."
Yuder produced a pen from his pocket. At that moment, the official's eyes twitched nervously.
'…What's that?'
Simultaneously, the mage who sneakily glanced at the yellow magic stone brooch, which had subtly revealed itself from the flipped edge of Yuder's coat, widened his eyes slightly in recognition.
'That brooch, adorned with a magic stone and inscriptions... Could it be?'
The merchant,...

"A Great Hua emissary?" Yujia furrowed her brows. "Just a few days ago, Hu Bugui, the stationed general in Bayanhot, had already sent someone to visit me. Now where has another Great Hua emissary popped up from? Did you inquire thoroughly?"
Nalan nodded hurriedly, "I did ask. That person carries the imperial seal of the Great Hua Emperor. Please have a look, Great Khan."

Chapter 672 The Envoy of Great Hua
On the distant horizon, a vast cavalry procession advanced slowly. Leading them were five thousand elite Turkic wolf cavalry, formidable in strength and spirit. Following closely were over a hundred Turkic maidens with bright eyes and white teeth, armed with bows and curved swords, their figures valiant and striking.
In the center of the procession, sixteen magnificent blood-red horses pulled a massive carriage forward. Encirclin...

As he stepped onto the grassland, he entered the territory of Bayanhot. The first battle he fought upon entering the grasslands, which had taken place right here, was an event Lin Wanrong would never forget. Spanning hundreds of miles, the vast green grasslands had been designated as a free trade zone by both countries. In less than two months since the signing of the peace treaty, this area had begun to take shape. Caravans co...

"What nonsense is this!"
"The person in charge, you say? This place is no stage for a green youth like you, a mere commoner. If you've lost your mind, step down gracefully!"
The reaction to Yuder, who stood alone before the protesting crowd filling the front of the branch, was explosively heated. Not a single soul believed in Yuder's words; the consensus was that a madman had appeared, spouting nonsense.

As the time to leave Miao Village approached, the Holy Maiden, though open-minded and resilient, couldn't help but feel a profound sadness. At night, she curled up in her little brother's embrace, her tears soaking his chest.

An Biru, seemingly bold yet slightly tipsy, blushed under the dim, warm light. Her chest heaved dramatically as she loosened her elegantly pinned hair, letting it cascade down like a waterfall. Her neck, as graceful as jade, seemed to be tinged with a layer of bright pink, her eyes misty and enchantingly...

"I'll take a closer look at that when we arrive at the southern branch." After the conversation had ended, Kishiar stated this. The bundle of papers, written by the First Duke of Tain, was rolled up in leather and tucked away in the Commander's luggage, safe from any intrusion.

Yuder reflexively thought of the southern part of the Empire when he heard 'south,' but soon realized that the writer might have been referring to a region even farther south.

'The Word of God... Is it truly divine?'
The meaning of these divine words was, of course, naturally associated with the scriptures. Yuder, not particularly devout, was aware that the texts written in the Sun God's scriptures were said to be the accounts of prophets who had directly heard the Word of God. This w...
