Chapter 600 The Battle Against The Right Prince
Both sides moved as swiftly as lightning, but the steeds under The Right Prince's warriors were carefully chosen and clearly superior to those of the Great Hua forces. As they raced towards the center of the plains, covering several hundred feet, they gradually pulled ahead.
Upon seeing two clusters of horsemen approaching, the Golden Blade Khan gave a nod and a slight smile. She reached behind and took out a black c...

Chapter 599 Seizing the Khan
At this critical moment, Tursun had swept across the plains, an unbeatable force who had defeated all tribes worthy of challenging him. He was the undisputed number one warrior. If the Great Khan approved of him, he would be granted the golden blade, securing his reputation and power, and forever becoming the unparalleled Khan of the plains.
At that moment, all eyes converged on Yujia. A single nod from her could rewrite the history of...

It wasn't just the legal scholars, including Marchio, who doubted Kishiar's words. Even Yuder, who had somewhat anticipated what Kishiar might do when meeting the scholars, was taken aback by his unexpectedly bold statements.
'He intends to create laws concerning Awakeners so quickly? Is that even possible?'
In his previous life, new rules or laws were only incrementally added when Yuder and his Cavalry returned from accomplishing a task, or when...

On the day a new letter arrived at the sage's residence in the capital, informing that Awakeners from an unknown southern land had arrived at the southern base, the residence was conspicuously empty. Normally, one of the Awakeners staying at the Crown Prince's palace would have stepped out briefly to retrieve the correspondence, but they were all extremely busy trying to locate Nahan, who may also have arrived in the capital.
In the meantime, the resid...

"Did you sleep well?"
The next morning, when Yuder woke up, the Kishiar he met was shining like never before. Perhaps it was the perfect weather, but his face radiated with sunlight, making it almost difficult to believe it was real.
As Yuder stared blankly at him, Kishiar, who was seated in a picture-perfect posture, tilted his head and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"It seems you slept extremely well," Yuder remarked.

Chapter 598 Astonishing Archery Skills
The bustling grasslands suddenly turned as calm as a placid lake, punctuated only by the sound of countless hurried breaths. Every Turkic person focused intently on the radiant face of their Great Khan, their eyes unblinking, afraid to miss an extraordinary moment. Standing next to his sister, Young Khan Salmu clenched his hands in anxiety.
Yujia looked especially beautiful as she concentrated, slowly pulling the bowstring to...

The howling wind roared in Lin Wanrong's ears, drowning out the frenzied screams of the Turkic people in the arena. He couldn't make out what they were yelling.
The Great Khan gripped Salmu's hand, her eyes focused on the three tribes that were racing in the field. Her delicate fingers gestured animatedly as she explained something to Salmu. The Little Khan nodded continuously, waving his hand in salute to the sprinting warriors.

"What should we do?"
What did he mean by 'what should we do'? Kishiar's lips briefly curled into a smile devoid of warmth as he silently gazed at Yuder, contemplating the ambiguous statement. Kishiar leaned his head against Yuder's shoulder as he let out a breath, as if exhaling unspeakable burdens.
"Really, what should we do…"
The utterance, devoid of a clear subject, felt like a sigh of parched sorrow or perhaps an exclamation of ferven...

"I was going to say that even if your goal was world domination, I'd still support you. Guess I got it half right."
Only half right? The only commonality between saving the world and conquering it was that both concerned the world they lived in. It was a wildly audacious joke, but the individual it pertained to remained unfazed. Kishiar was as he always was—neither laughing at Yuder's words, nor particularly scrutinizing them.

It was a dreadful truth, one that couldn't be fully conveyed with a mere word or two. A mix of conflicting urges—to either swallow it whole or to spit it out—tickled at Yuder's throat.
Images from a distant past jumbled and sped past behind his closed eyes. Though he was in contact with Kishiar and shouldn't have felt cold, his fingertips turned icy. As Yuder exhaled thinly, as though drenched by the chill, the strong arms supporting his back pulle...

Lin Wanrong had considered countless possibilities concerning Yujia's identity. A princess, a queen, or even the most mysterious witch of the steppe—all of these had crossed his mind. But never had ...

Dewdrops still clung to the blades of grass, refracting dazzling light as if reluctant to disappear.

It was the same move, at the same spot, as Kishiar had chosen to initiate the first game. Yuder's eyes flicked momentarily to the man's face.
'He isn't planning to concede this time around, obviously.'

In the brief meeting of their eyes, indescribable emotions flickered and passed.
The way Yuder had played the game so far was a mirror image of Kishiar's own style. It was fundamentally different from mere perceptiveness or cunning.

Neither flinched when employ...

"Let us begin then."
The original name of the tactical game was 'Imuran Yute Mesis.' A complex and lengthy name derived from archaic words, few ever pronounced it correctly.
The game's pieces consisted of eight types, twenty-four in total. When played by two people, most often two types would be excluded, leaving six types with eighteen pieces. Yuder surveyed the set before him: a king, a general, a minister, a knight, a priest, and a common piec...

Pondering any longer would be fruitless. Yujia, being a woman of such intelligence and nobility, must have foreseen the outcome of her failure the moment she approached them. Or perhaps, she was so confident in her own charm that she never considered the possibility of failing.
But in every game, there are winners and losers. Failure comes at a cost; this is an immutable truth. It applied to Yujia, and it applied to Lin Wanrong as well....
