"Did Your Highness perhaps know not only about Tain but also about them already?"

Kishiar responded only with an inscrutable smile, instead of a direct answer. In Pruelle's eyes, tension, admiration, and trust simultaneously flashed by.

"I see. I think it would not be helpful if I knew too much, so I will not ask further. If you have any tasks for me, please tell me at any time."

The intelligence of Duke Peletta was indeed remarkable. Who w...

Chapter 360 Paying a Visit

"What, what, what does this mean?" Lin Wanrong stuttered, his heart pounding in his chest, his face flushed red. He felt as if he had lost control of himself. The Emperor had gone mad!

"Whatever you're thinking, that's what it means," the old Emperor coughed lightly, his pale face tinged with a faint blush. He spoke in a deep voice, "Gao Ping, bring the portrait!"

The Eunuch Gao, who had been waiting outside the door, hurried in, h...

Chapter 376 Accompanied by Beauty

That night, Master Lin slept in a half-drunken, half-awake state. At one moment, he dreamed of having a son with Qingxuan; at another, he dreamed of Eldest Miss stabbing him with several holes. When he awoke, he was drenched in cold sweat. ‘Damn it, why would I dream such a thing? Am I really meant to play the part of Chen Shimei?’ he thought.

[TL: Chen Shimei is a Chinese opera character and a byword in China for a heartless ...

Eldest Miss stood agog, staring blankly at him for a long time, before finally recovering her wits. She glanced around, ensuring that no one had overheard, and then lowered her voice, trembling as she said, "Are you trying to get yourself killed? How dare you speak such seditious words?"

"Hehe, I was only joking," Master Lin laughed heartily, "If I were to become the Emperor, I would certainly make you the Grand Imperial Concubine, so tha...

Chapter 374 “Work-related Injury”

Though Lin Wanrong had quite a thick skin, he was marked with a vivid trace left by the fairy. He felt quite embarrassed to return home like this, so he lingered for a long time within Du Xiuyuan's army. Having nothing better to do, he pulled up Sasaki for a thorough interrogation, beating him with fists and kicks. As Lin Wanrong expected, this man from Dongyin would rather die than speak, having cultivated the spirit of Bushido to ...

"Leaving? Where to? It's late now. Can't we go tomorrow?" Lin Wanrong asked with puzzlement.

Qin Xian'er shook her head slightly, her lips moving a few times before she whispered, "I want to see if that man is dead. If he is, I will set off fireworks in celebration."

Lin Wanrong silently chuckled. This young woman's stubbornness was evident. Even though she cared deeply for her father, she wouldn't express it directly. He ...

Chapter 363 Comfort

As he wandered through the rear hills, he couldn’t locate the place where Xian'er had built a hut to watch over her mother’s grave. Doubts crept in, making him wonder if the old Emperor had deceived him. But then, from a distance on the hillside, a wisp of green smoke rose with the wind, clearly visible. A surge of joy filled his heart, and he quickened his pace, heading straight for the source of the smoke.

As he approached, about several ...

Chapter 362: I Am Your Tiger Oil*

‘What kind of gibberish is that?’ It sounded familiar yet strangely unfamiliar. Doubt filled his heart. He quickly concealed himself behind a large boulder and peered toward the valley below.

The valley was filled with oddly shaped rocks, some round and some flat, protruding in strange ways. He couldn't see the individuals speaking from his vantage point. Their voices were soft, and by the time he strained his ears to listen m...

Chapter 356 Goryeo's Gift

"Oh my, Miss Seo, why offer such a grand gesture? I'm overwhelmed," Lin Wanrong said, grinning as he steadied Seo Jang Geum, taking the chance to brush his hand over her delicate one. Her face reddened, and she hastily withdrew her hand, not allowing him another advantage.

Lin Wanrong pondered for a moment. The Great Hua was about to engage in a fierce battle with the Turks. If Dongyin truly conquered Goryeo and then colluded with the Tur...

Chapter 355 The Boyfriend

A lady who didn't eat or sleep, waiting for him for seven or eight hours? Whose lady was sick with longing? Lin Wanrong was puzzled. Suddenly, a feeble voice rang in his ears, "Sir... sir... you're finally back."

Lin Wanrong looked up and saw a woman with skin as smooth as cream staring blankly at him. Her face was pale, and she suddenly collapsed into a soft heap.

Qiaoqiao's reflexes were quick, and she promptly supported her, call...

"Do you have any plans in mind?"

"No plans."

Kishiar's response was succinct. However, his eyes were shining like a predator waiting for the right time to strike.

"But if my guess is correct, thanks to the people we brought today, we might soon get what we want."

The auction will be held again because of the people brought today? Yuder's eyes narrowed at the very significant statement, and he became lost in thought. Ever also wore an ...

“Understood. If that's the case, I will follow behind. Do as you wish.”

The half-hearted response by the Knight Commander, who seemed to have lost his motivation, was immediately followed by Kishiar, who then gestured to Ever, Emun, and Finn. Together with the jailer, they hastened to the place where they had discovered the imprisoned the day before.

“It's there!”

Yuder turned his head toward the direction Emun was pointing and yell...

The reason Ever had taken the two of them along was that they had been the ones who had visited the Awakeners's village in the Great Sarain Forest as part of the first dispatched team. Although those who had lost their memory could not recognize the people and wasn't sure if they were the ones chased out of the village, she thought that Emun and Finn might be able to. And fortunately, her expectation had turned out wonderfully correct.

"Was it certain ...

Chapter 373 Absolutely Shameless

Du Xiuyuan and Xu Zhen, although not clear on the full details, understood the general gist. They knew that these Dongyin people, for the sake of silver, had poisoned so many of their Great Hua compatriots. They were immediately filled with righteous indignation. Seizing hold of Sasaki, they restrained him, and Lin Wanrong kicked him repeatedly. Drawing his steel knife and placing it against Sasaki's neck, he coldly said, "I'll ask you o...

Chapter 372 Furious Interrogation

The room was silent, and Lin Wanrong didn't know if Fairy Ning had heard his words. He didn't care. He had many loves, and one more made no difference. It was as simple as saying, "I want to eat."

"General, who is Fairy Sister?" Du Xiuyuan asked, puzzled. Lin Wanrong shook his head and sighed, "Concerning Fairy Sister, it is a poignant love story. I'll tell you when we have more time. Now find Xu Zhen. That boy was tailing the mas...

Catching ghosts? Ning Yuxi blinked, then she understood, listening to his tone as he spoke with the other two, he was planning to capture some people from Dongyin.

"Do you want me to be your interpreter?" Ning Yuxi smiled slightly. This man had so many tricks up his sleeve. Clearly, he needed her help, but he acted as if it was no big deal.

"You said it yourself," Lin Wanrong laughed heartily, clapping his hands, "Fairy S...

Pruelle had told Kishiar that if there was anything he wanted to ask, he should pass it through him.

"Very well. There's one thing I want to ask first. I was curious why you approached my assistant in the garden and not anyone else. You seemed particularly interested, and I'd like to know why."

"Understood. Nipollen. Can you tell me why you approached that person earlier? What was the reason?"

Pruelle asked gently, and the child who had bee...

It was a comfort very much in Kishiar's style.

And in some ways, Yuder felt a confidence in those words as if he could handle whatever clumsy act Yuder might perform. A somewhat subtle feeling arose in him as well.

'It's more comfortable to gather my thoughts, thanks to that.'

After all, the reason he accepted this role and resolved to do his best was entirely because of Kishiar. No matter how he looked at it, the fact that Kishiar would tu...

"...Is that so?"

"It is."

Yuder clamped his mouth shut for a moment. Life before joining the Cavalry did not need to be buried like events from a previous life, but neither was it a topic full of intrigue that he would willingly discuss. What could there be to say about a life in a secluded cabin, where one had to hike nearly half a day down a mountain to meet a neighbor? Seeing a smile at a small memory he'd deemed neither necessary to mention n...

Du Xiuyuan and Lin Wanrong hurriedly looked forward, only to see an old man standing at the entrance, glancing left and right before he picked up the knocker and tapped lightly on the door.

"The contact has arrived." Xu Zhen and Du Xiuyuan's expressions changed simultaneously, looking back at Lin Wanrong for guidance, wondering if they should act at once.

"Wait and see," Lin Wanrong said calmly, shaking his head. "This matter...

Yesterday, as Li Tai was leaving, he had handed over 10,000 elite troops to Lin Wanrong, who were now stationed at the foot of Grand Prime Minister Temple's back mountain. Li Tai knew that people like Du Xiuyuan had been personally nurtured by Lin Wanrong. They had fought bravely against the White Lotus cult in Shandong, demonstrating remarkable valor, so he specifically left Du Xiuyuan's unit for Lin Wanrong to command. Had this been y...

‘350,000 taels of silver, vanished without a trace overnight? You must be joking with me, 350,000 taels, nearly 20 tons in weight; it's not something you can just cart away. Do you think it was loaded onto a truck?’

Upon seeing his disbelief, Xu Wei helplessly shook his head and bitterly smiled, saying, "At first, I didn't believe it either. But the news was brought by trusty messengers from Shandong, who rode 800 li at full speed. There'...

“I don't know.”

When Yuder answered honestly, Kishiar raised his head and smiled.

“The one who first made a stove capable of igniting and burning magic stones lived near the mine of magic stones. Up until then, the low-quality magic stones, which were not worth selling, were all buried in the ground. But he discovered that the poor were picking up this trash to use in the stove instead of firewood.”

Even though the magic stones were...

"How does the assistant think about it?"

As the question was suddenly tossed to Yuder, who had been silently listening all this time, Pruelle's gaze also turned towards him. With a look that held both desperation and surprise, Yuder felt a slight confusion. It was clear that Kishiar's will was almost determined, so he couldn't understand why his opinion needed to be publicly heard.

"I don't think it's a matter for me to comment on."

"Indeed. You possess the interesting ability I heard about from my assistant."

"Thank you for saying so."

"So... I'm curious as to why you've come all this way to propose a deal."

Pruelle did not beat around the bush. He had secretly slipped away from the main residence and needed to return as quickly as possible.

"As you've probably already heard from your assistant, I wanted to leave my family and receive protection. However, it's n...

"This..." Gao Ping hesitated for a moment, "Master Lin, you must know that the Emperor has already retired for the night." He had met many officials, but Master Lin was the most audacious among them. Others would wait until the Emperor had eaten, drunk, and relieved himself before they dared to ask for an audience, but Master Lin was one to pull the Emperor out of bed.

"He may be resting, but we must still go." Lin Wanrong sighed deeply, "Th...

Though the palace lamps were dim, he could see clearly the scene depicted in the painting. Amidst the faint glimmer of lake and mountain, there was a vast expanse of mist, with boats weaving through. Nearby on the shore, a man dressed in a green robe was standing by the lake, his eyebrows raised in a cold smirk. The man was facing the lake, and only his silhouette was visible in the painting; his face was unclear. However, there was a sense of déjà v...

Upon stepping outside, Eunuch Gao carefully closed the door behind him, fearful of disturbing the father and daughter who had reunited inside after untold trials and tribulations.

Lin Wanrong heard Qin Xian'er's soft sobs coming from within and couldn't help but shake his head. He thought to himself, ‘I did right today. I hope the father and daughter can get along well. Then my efforts won't have been in vain.’

Awakened individuals possessing transformation abilities were something Yuder had encountered a few times in his past life. However, the cases where they could transform into humans were exceedingly rare. Most commonly, they could change into something resembling a specific animal or object, and some had even transformed into monstrous appearances to commit various crimes.

A common trait among them was that the more diverse their transformations, the q...

Upon close inspection, Pruelle, the firstborn of the Tain Ducal house, was quite distinct from other young nobles in both appearance and temperament. Most of the noble youth Yuder had seen so far had extraordinary looks like Kiolle, Aishes, or Lenore, but often had less impressive personalities. Even in rare cases like Revlin Shand Apeto, where the character was miraculously good, their appearance was as smooth as porcelain dolls, allowing one to guess their...
