Even after being released, Emun gathered those who could not move properly and, cloaked in darkness, moved toward the security management team building. Meanwhile, Cavalry members were incessantly pouring down various elemental attacks from the top of the building.
Amidst the chaos of crumbling walls, overturned carts, and twisted roads, Yuder advanced forward, avoiding obstacles with the minimum movement necessary. Through the thick dust, he spotted t...

Chapter 436 A Complex Matter
Straining to lower his head, Lin Wanrong caught a glimpse of his legs still attached to his body and immediately felt elated. Fairy Ning was holding a sword in one hand while carrying him with the other, her toes barely touching the roof tiles as they darted forward. She moved like a wisp of smoke, incredibly fast. All he could hear was the sound of rushing wind; he couldn't even make out their direction.
Was he really not dead? Cold s...

"Not a single one shall be left out!" Lin Wanrong's heart blossomed with joy, and he embraced her delicate body, gently caressing her back. "Second Miss, your words are wonderful. I will certainly adhere to your instructions without faltering, holding fast to the principles of fairness, justice, and openness. I'll make sure you and Eldest Miss live a happy and contented life."
Yushuang gave a soft acknowledgment and shyly said, "You...

"What is all this mess?" Madam Xiao's face blushed as she glanced at the mysterious pages of the erotic book, and she turned her head away, lightly spitting, "What are you doing with these? Put them away quickly."
"Does Madam perhaps find this dowry too modest?" Lin San shook his head, his face serious, "Madam, these items are ranked alongside my life and chastity as the three treasures of the Lin family, and are by no means...

‘I thought I noticed something... fortunately not.’
When Baron Willhem was to bring out the victims, the Cavalry members inside the security management team had arranged to signal the accomplices at the opportune moment. It seemed like they were about to start, so it was fortunate that they were not discovered even before they tried.
A moment later, a sharper wind blew in from the direction of the security management unit. The trees shook in ...

Yuder stepped on the deserted western wall, leaped high, and by stepping on the wind once more, he successfully slid into the targeted location. Ever, who witnessed Yuder infiltrating the corridor of the second floor through the window in an instant, expressed pure admiration, her eyes filled with excitement.
"Wow. It was too fast to even see what was happening. Did you happen to have experience as a Night Guest before joining the Cavalry?"

“The weather is quite nice today. I heard you trained late into the night yesterday. Did you rest well?”
Theorado Van Tain, the commander of the Imperial Knights, had looked indifferently at Pruelle, who sat before him, smiling faintly. He had let Pruelle into his office without a second thought, as it was rest time, and there was no particular reason for his sudden visit.

Xu Wei remained silent, as quiet as a winter cicada. Lin San's words were intense, but they carried an uncommon sense of reason. Releasing Ashile and Lu Dongzan, he had once thought it was a righteous act, dispelling the rumors of other countries and proving the innocence of the Great Hua Empire, all perfectly executed.
But Lin San's words awakened him to regret and shock: Why should we care so much about how others...

Unlike other heavy and formal parties, a party held for the sole purpose of charity fundraising or interaction between relatives, like the one opened today, was traditionally the responsibility of the wives. Therefore, nobody particularly minded the fact that Baron Willhem, having merely greeted the guests, had disappeared, as long as the Baroness maintained her place; dancing wasn't even considered an essential part of the event.
In reality, as soon a...

A sliver of rosy glow seeped in through the window, heralding the break of dawn. A glance around the room revealed it was neat and tidy, spotlessly clean. The crimson candle on the table was about to burn out, and the rhododendrons that had bloomed the night before were taken away. The place was deserted and left without a trace.
No wonder yesterday's wine tasted strange; it had been laced with a sedative by the Goryeo woman. So much for bei...

What followed was the revelation about the hidden basement on the fourth floor of the Security Management Team's...

"A flower for you, two cuckoos in Shu?!" Seo Jang Geum muttered softly, her face flushed with clouds of red, her small hand trembling slightly. She was eager to take the flower branch but hesitated inexplicably.
How could he not have thought of this? It was both a flower and a poem; what woman could resist? Zhao Kangning was secretly distressed. Although he had always despised Lin San's actions, seeing Lin San's performance ...

Contrary to Enon's grumpy face, Lusan had honestly taken Yuder's hand and started with a prayer of joy. Little by little, an awkward gratitude welled up while listening to the prayer, expressing relief that no serious trouble had arisen and that the long-standing injuries had improved.
