There was no need to question what she meant. Almost instantly after she had finished speaking, a faint sound could be heard echoing from somewhere. It was as if someone was slowly stepping on fallen leaves or perhaps chewing on something brittle, a faint and eerie sound. Despite looking around, there were no signs of other people or creatures. Yuder felt his senses come to life, tingling throughout his body.
Following the chilly sensation that warned ...

"Why are you just arriving?" From a distance, she saw Lin San and Huan'er approaching, playfully bantering. The Eldest Miss hastened to meet them, grumbling, "Everyone else is working their heads off, yet you seem to have all the leisure time in the world."
"As a wounded person, a bit of coddling is appropriate." Lin Wanrong chuckled, his eyes roving appreciatively over Xiao Yuruo. "Miss, you look quite beautiful today," he sincere...

The first three palanquins of the procession were quite eye-catching, and Lin Wanrong's gaze, which was malevolent, quickly fell upon the woman seated in the second soft palanquin.
The woman had red lips and a snowy complexion, an attractive figure, and her gaze flitted about. Her radiant eyes sparked with each glance, seemingly shy yet brimming with unspeakable audacity and extreme charm. She glanced around, a soft, enchanting smile bl...

‘Damn, even a fairy could run away?’ Cold sweat drenched his entire body. He wanted to burst into laughter, but he felt completely drained. Just as he was about to sit down, he leapt up abruptly as if spring-loaded, letting out an 'ouch' sound.
The Eldest Miss hurriedly steadied him, her voice filled with concern, "Don't be reckless, you're injured."

"Sir Aile? Is something wrong?"
"No, I thought I heard something for a moment, so I just checked. It seems I was mistaken."
"A sound? What kind of sound do you mean?"
Yuder paused briefly, detached his gaze from the depths of the forest he had glanced back at, and turned to look at Lorna. They were again on the move today, exploring the ancient site of the Magic Spring. The two other mages who usually accompanied them had decided not to joi...

In front of Ejain now stood less than ten of his subordinates. This was a far cry from the twenty or so he had been promised. The atmosphere among the subordinates grew tense in an instant, seemingly picking up on the guardedness in Ejain's gaze.
After a long silence, one of the subordinates awkwardly broke the tense air.

At this moment, they were standing several yards apart, with Lin Wanrong observing every change in the fairy sister's demeanor. The fairy sister's delicate body was slightly trembling. Even though he couldn't see her face clearly, he could imagine just how pale her cheeks must be.
Observing the trembling bosom of the fairy sister, a sense of delight he couldn't express surged in Lin Wanrong's heart. His smile grew increasingly las...

The reason Yuder opened his eyes was because he felt a chilling premonition aimed at his throat.
His head was spinning, pulled abruptly from a dream of endless falling just moments ago, but Yuder silently surveyed the darkness. There stood a black shadow by his bed, a figure with no chance of being the Priest Lusan, a sword pointed at his throat.

Upon noticing Xu Wei and Lin San conversing, the Eldest Miss saw Miss Xu's face pallid with despair. She reached for her hand, consoling, "Miss Xu, Madam Xu, don't mind Lin San. He's all ...

At some unknown point, a light rain had begun to patter down. Walking on the main street under the gloomy sky, the biting chill of early spring pierced through one's bones, causing cheeks to sting with cold. Countless households lit their lamps, casting a faint mist in the drizzling rain, as if they were flowers blooming underwater, indistinct, hard to discern. Several oil-paper umbrellas, held aloft, moved slowly. People's faces were ...
