      Chapter 63: A Match Made in Heaven? Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 March 26th, Prince Lanyangs Estate. Recently, Lin Hansu had been experiencing bouts of anxiety and restless sleep, plagued by unpleasant dreams. This left her looking rather haggard. One morning, Granny Zhang noticed her unease and suggested, "Your Highness, it has been nearly three months since you last went out. Why not take a stroll outside the estate? I've heard that the Yaoqing nunnery in the eastern part of the City has a nun named Master Yu Zhen who is renowned for…
    • Chapter 62: Great Wu is Sick

      Chapter 62: Great Wu is Sick Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The afternoon of the twenty-fifth day of the third month. As they drew closer to Huaifeng Prefecture, the small groups of Wu Army Soldiers they encountered on the road became more numerous. Some were as ragged as they were, others bore wounds, and even those unharmed had lost half their armor and weapons during the retreat. They all looked dejected and lost. Moving further ahead, the scene gradually devolved into chaos. Centering on Huaifeng Prefecture, the area spanning…

      Chapter 61: Heaven and Earth as Witness Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 March 24th, night. Northern foot of Chongyin Mountain. Tonight was the first night back in Wu territory. After resting for the night, they would head southeast tomorrow morning toward Huaifeng Prefecture, Fengzhou, Great Wu. Fengzhou was located on the southwestern border of Great Wu, adjacent to Southern Zhao, and Huaifeng Prefecture was the transit point for grain and supplies for this southern expedition. Heavy troops were stationed within the…

      Chapter 60: Meeting the Wind and Transforming into a Flood Dragon Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The warm evening breeze passing through the mortal world became a bit more chilly as it traveled through the valley. Perhaps it was because of the cool mountain night, or perhaps it was due to the scent of blood permeating the air. "Oh my, how did things turn out like this? Oh my, it hasn't been easy for us to come all this way, oh my..." With the door as the dividing line, on one side were Ding Suian and Zhao Yan, and on the other were Huang, Gao, Li, and Li Baicheng. Lin…
    • Chapter 59: Chongyin Twilight

      Chapter 59: Chongyin Twilight Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 March 23rd. After six days in Chongyin Mountain, none of them looked human anymore. Clothes were stained with grass juice and mud, torn by branches and thorns. In short, everyone leaned on sticks, dressed in rags. They were the living image of a pack of beggars. However, the good news was that this route due north across the mountains saved nearly half the distance compared to the official road used when the army first entered Southern Zhao. At their current speed, they would…
    • Chapter 58: Yang Excess!

      Chapter 58: Yang Excess! Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 Chapter 58: Yang Excess! There were six Zhao Army Soldiers in total. Ding Suian's confidence stemmed from the changes in his body after experiencing Yang Excess two nights prior. His vision was far superior to before when walking at night, and his body felt much lighter. The three minor stages within each realm of a Martial Artist—Minor Achievement, Proficiency, and Perfection—were not clearly demarcated. But Ding Suian could sense that he seemed to have already…

      Chapter 57: Humans and Demons Share the Same Origin Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 "...Auntie told Nunu a few days ago to wait obediently at Chongyin Mountain, saying that the Mountain Ancestor Goddess would bestow upon Nunu a very, very good husband. Then, last night, husband crawled into Nunu's Immortal Cave. Nunu took a liking to him at first sight. If husband wasn't bestowed by the Mountain Ancestor Goddess, then how else could it be?" "Who is Auntie?" "Auntie is just Auntie..." Zhao Yan blinked, as…
    • Chapter 56: Waning Moon, Dual Souls, Yin and Yang, One Life

      Chapter 56: Waning Moon, Dual Souls, Yin and Yang, One Life Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The seventeenth day of the third month. The Imperial Capital of Great Wu, Central Heaven City. The atmosphere in the court these past two days has been a bit strange. After the morning assembly today, His Majesty even summoned many high-ranking officials to the Jinshen Hall for a discussion, which lasted until nearly noon, yet the hall doors remained tightly shut. But in Central Heaven City, the bustling prosperity continued as usual. Early in the morning, at the…
    • Chapter 55: The First Year of Shenwu, Spring.

      Chapter 55: The First Year of Shenwu, Spring. Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 March 15th. 7-9 am sharp. Today there wasn't a breath of wind; atop Koujian Pass, the tiger banners of Southern Zhao hung limply against the flagpole, as if hinting at the fate of this small country on the southwestern border. Before the pass, red armor stretched like a mountain range, spears and halberds like a forest, as one hundred thousand Soldiers of Great Wu stood silently in the morning mist. Only the slight clinking of armor plates and the sound of…

      Chapter 54: An Absurd Reason Cover
      by MachineSamurai9124 The forty-eighth year of legitimacy, the first day of the third lunar month. After twenty days of marching, one hundred thousand Wu Army Soldiers arrived at the border between the two countries. The next day, the Yannan Pass, the northeast gateway to Southern Zhao, fell that very day. The Wu Army did not linger; leaving behind a small detachment, the main force continued south on the second day of the third month. Wherever the great army arrived, the Zhao…
