Chapter 660 Blame Your Excellence
The beguiling voice had a profound effect, as the eyes of the Miao members darkened once again. Indeed, the Xuzhou Prefecture in Sichuan had committed too many evils, and Nie Yuanqing was a prime example of this. Naturally, all the blame was placed on the Hua people.
“True, there are some scoundrels among the Hua people who oppress and commit atrocities in our village, but justice will be served in due time. Someone will surely ...

In the midst of urgent anxiety, akin to ants on a hot pan, a figure quietly squeezed through the crowd. Just as she was about to toss a bamboo slip towards him, the sharp-eyed onlookers, already aware of the secret, intercepted her with teasing smiles. "Sister, what are you planning to do?"
Yilian, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, clutched the bamboo piece tightly and shyly lowered her head. "I, I—"
One of the onlookers blinked ...

After inspecting all the buildings, Kishiar pointed to one.
"Here. This place is the most likely candidate."
The spot Kishiar indicated was the last of the three ruins they had seen. Yuder looked at the teetering pile of stones in the indicated direction and nodded slightly.
"I also thought this one had the highest possibility."
"Did you? How so?"
Kishiar's interest was piqued. He seemed curious if Yuder knew something from a pr...

Their second destination was Tyckenspail, a nondescript region located between the west and south. Previously unknown to Yuder, it was a small village that had remained obscure until now. Its only notable feature was a few ancient ruins. However, these are only ruins in name, as they have been long neglected and left in a state of disrepair."
According to Kishiar, this very place was where the first Duke of Tain had sent all his research.

Amidst the journey to trace the footsteps of Prince Katchian, an unexpected yet significant discovery was made.
During the brief interval when Nathan Zuckerman was away, Yuder succinctly relayed to Kishiar the tale of 'Thornbush Marin.' Kishiar showed more interest in the Red Field Riot, where Marin last fought and fell, than in the fact that she had attempted to assassinate the Emperor of Katchian.

Chapter 658 Aiding Ah Lin Ge
In the distance, bonfires blazed fiercely. Ah Lin Ge was cheerfully pushed away by the young Miao men and women, creating layers of human walls between him and the Holy Maiden.
An Biru's cheeks flushed, her eyes downcast in deep emotion. The mi cai encircled her, singing and dancing exuberantly, creating a fervent atmosphere.

In the village, the child was known as 'Little Kitchi.' Much smaller and weaker than his peers, frequent illnesses had sharpened his temperament, making it hard for him to blend in with other children. However, he often played with Mikey, finding solace in his company.

Upon closer observation, there were subtle differences between the movements of Lin Wanrong and Zhaguo. The...
