"Huang Xiaofei, you went out once on the first night. What is the average strength of the Ghosts in this instance for you?" Turning a corner, Qi Si stared at the long, narrow, and dim corridor ahead, asking without looking back, "Can you beat them?" Huang Xiaofei took the cigarette from her mouth with two fingers and said calmly, "If they are the Pregnant Ghosts in the night corridor, I can handle ten at once. The night before last, there were too…-

There's no such thing as guarding against a thief for a thousand days. The enigmatic Scholar in Long Robes earlier was able to accurately state critical information such as the number of guards and that only Ding Suian had just entered the Manifesting Elemental State. Clearly, there was internal intelligence. If Ding Suian hadn't made preparations in advance, Jintai Temple would have been their burial ground tonight. It hardly needed analysis; it was…-

In the neighboring courtyard, after Ding Suian threw the Kunwu saber and killed Third Hu, Granny Zhang, who was by Lin Hansu's side, reacted extremely quickly. She immediately bolted the room door and, together with Granny Xu, moved a cabinet to block the door. At that time, the fighting outside was still ongoing. Their actions were almost futile. If Ding Suian won, everything would be fine. If he lost, even if they sealed the doors and windows with stones,…

Qi Si watched Huang Xiaofei finish the bowl of tadpole soup and silently asked Lin Chen in his mind whether the count of swallowed tadpoles had changed. Same as the first day, Lin Chen gave a negative answer, confirming once again that the tadpole soup was not tallied toward quest progress. “Cherish food, stop waste—breakfast must be finished!” Outside the door, the nurse yelled at the top of her lungs, her voice as hoarse as sandpaper. Qi…

When Ding Suian instructed Gongye Ni to hide in the woods outside the courtyard as a scout, he had said: If attacked by bandits, choose the most dangerous target and shoot to kill. Gongye Ni did not choose the powerful-looking Chenggang Realm Orange-Peeled Face; instead, he selected the Scholar in Long Robes, who had been standing aside since entering the backyard and had never made a move, as his primary target. 'Whoosh~' The arrow was over ten feet from…

The nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. After days of gloom, at the beginning of the sishi hour, scattered snowflakes began to fall. Prince Lanyangs Estate, in mourning, showed no festive atmosphere of the approaching New Year. Or rather, even if there was joy in their hearts, it had to be secretly hidden to avoid violating the rites. Outside the estate gate, however, it was a scene of bustling activity. Several thick-walled carriages were parked at the foot of the stone steps, and maids…

“Hmph~” Lin Hansu truly hadn't expected Ding Suian to say something so shameless, but she had only intended to tease him, so she said, “This Princess brought it here precisely to bestow upon you.” “Bestow upon me?” After his surprise, Ding Suian looked serious. “Speak! Who does the Princess Consort want me to kill?” “Pfft~ Look at your lack of ambition! Willing to risk your life for a mere saber~” Lin Hansu chuckled, then continued, “Look…

The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, a quarter past noon. Lin Dafu arrived at the Prince's Mansion wearing the exact same armor as last time, but this time, he also carried an ancient-looking precious saber at his waist. Inside the dining hall of Huguai Garden, Lin Hansu was already waiting. "Greetings, Father~" Upon meeting, Lin Hansu clasped her hands in front of her chest, bent her knees slightly, and performed a standard solemn bow. This was the grand…

Midnight. It was time for the shift change. Ding Suian returned to the West Courtyard with Chest Hair and Hu Jiangjiu. Before heading to the backyard alone, Ding Suian pulled out a handful of sachets from his 懷裡 and tossed them to everyone, one by one. “Here, sachets for safety. I queued for an hour at Shouzheng Temple to get them. They’ve been blessed, one for each of you!” Hu Jiangjiu, having never owned such a thing…

Two quarters past midnight, the dew was heavy and the wind was cold. Ding Suian had just returned to the Prince Lanyangs Estate's West Courtyard when he heard that the Princess Consort had summoned him. Thinking something had gone wrong during his brief absence, he rushed to Chengxi Hall. But upon arriving, he saw Chest Hair and the others outside the hall were as usual. Inside the hall, Lin Hansu sat quietly on a prayer mat, burning paper…
