Outside the imperial study, snow was falling heavily, but inside, the floor heating burned vigorously, as if afraid someone might freeze to death. Liang Huan sat upright, his little face tense as he looked at the terrifying Liang Ye before him, clutching the candy in his hand tightly. Liang Ye was listening to the ministers…
Capital’s Imperial Palace, secret dungeon. An emaciated figure hung suspended in midair by heavy iron chains—if such a thing could still be called human. The foul stench of decay permeated the air, the scent of rotting flesh from festering wounds. There wasn’t a patch of healthy skin left on this person’s body, with white bones…
Episode 62 I slowly opened my mouth, which had been shut, and uttered one word with great difficulty. “…Okay.” Finally, the thought that had been swirling in my mind since earlier left my lips. “Let’s go back to the entrance.” “It is the best decision.” “Jun-woo, come this way!” Once the decision was made, the…
Episode 61 “Ji-ah!” As soon as he recognized me, he called out to me urgently, as if he had found a savior. But when he saw the mermaid banging on the tank as if trying to break it, he froze in fear. I didn’t have the luxury to wait for him to regain his senses,…
The collapsed and frenzied emperor was unapproachable, as the ruins of the council hall seemed to echo his wailing. Liang Ye clutched the dragon robe tightly to his chest, as if by doing so he could still feel Wang Dian’s lingering warmth and the strong scent of begonia that had not yet dispersed, proving to…
Excruciating pain spread from his heart to his limbs and throughout his body. Wang Dian looked up and met Liang Ye’s bewildered gaze. He wanted to stand and tell Liang Ye that he was fine, but all strength seemed to have been drained from his body in an instant, a feeling of weightlessness and suffocation…
“Bian Daren, why so agitated?” Wen Heshen looked at him with pity. “You’re willing to let everyone in Northern Liang accompany your family in death, while I merely wish to find my elder brother. In each of his reincarnations, I seek him out, make him remember me, then watch helplessly as he cannot escape aging,…
The plaque of Suixue Garden appeared like drops of fresh blood in the rain. He leaped over the garden gate, and was immediately pulled into someone’s embrace. Yue Jingming took a palm strike to his chest and was thrown from the palace wall, flying dozens of feet away. Xiao Chunhe braced his back from behind,…
Outside the council hall, rain poured down violently. Bian Cang’s face instantly contorted upon hearing the words, “You are the State Preceptor!? Impossible, the State Preceptor was already killed!” When Wen Heshen initially approached him, he had appeared to be merely a down-and-out scholar, and quite young at that, which was why Bian Cang never…
Liang Ye looked down at the officials kneeling on the ground, a weary smile tugging at his lips. “Rise.” Behind Bian Cang stood a group of already surrendered, terrified rebellious ministers. The shadow Liang Ye had left in their hearts was too terrifying; just being smiled at by this madman made their spines go cold,…
After coming out of Yue Jingming’s room, Wang Dian’s face was hit by cold wind and rain. Someone from the west wing leaned out to close the windows, appearing not to recognize them, just nodded politely, then closed the windows tight. “Someone Master brought back.” Liang Ye opened an oil paper umbrella to shield him…
Liang Ye’s dark pupils trembled slightly as his thumb gently rubbed Wang Dian’s tiger’s palm. “Zhen naturally trusts you.” Wang Dian tugged at the corner of his mouth and laughed softly near his ear, “Of course you trust me, otherwise you wouldn’t have led me to that secret chamber… You discovered it early but couldn’t…
“What reminder?” Wang Dian asked. Liang Ye immediately closed his mouth and straightened up. When Wang Dian wanted to ask more, Liang Ye touched the back of his hand inconspicuously, and he immediately closed his mouth. Yue Jingming walked up to them, ignoring the slight red energy of romantic destiny between them, “Liang Ye, this…
The carriage sped along the official road, with the gates of the Capital already in sight. The young man in the carriage had delicate features, though his brows seemed to carry a trace of melancholy. He looked again hopefully at the stern-faced guard opposite him and politely asked, “This big brother, may this lowly one…
Side Story 01 A big thanks to the lovely Lurelia for the raws!! Whoosh! “Aaahhh!” A terrifying shriek pierced the air, mingling with the violent thrashing of trees. A massive bird with the head of a lion had abducted a human. In ancient times, fearsome beasts like this roamed everywhere. But there was something even…
Liang Ye and Wang Dian exchanged glances, both frowning simultaneously. Although Liang Ye’s memory wasn’t good, he had countless intelligence networks under his command. As long as he wanted to investigate matters of the past and present courts, he could find out most things. When Wang Dian first arrived, he had studied many historical books…
