The explanation revealed by Chen Nian stirred Mei Chan’s feelings. Her heart ached as she imagined the young man’s position—stranded, suffering memory loss, and losing his parents. She wanted to take him in as an adopted son, but that was impossible since her daughter had feelings for him. Although she sympathized, she couldn’t do much. Besides, in her view, the two of them were still too young to bind themselves in a relationship. The road ahead was still long, and there were ambitions yet to be fulfilled."What are your feelings toward my daughter?" Mei Chan looked at the youth who stood so calmly before her. She had to admit that the composure Chen Nian displayed was beyond that of most adults, as there wasn’t the slightest sign of nervousness when he was asked about his feelings."In my opinion, Princess Xia is a good girl, though at times a little harsh. But that is part of her uniqueness. If you ask about feelings—what man wouldn’t be drawn to such a beautiful girl? You can imag

Swoosh!From afar, a figure swiftly turned back after making sure Long Jiu had entered the cave in the valley."I must report this to the Emperor at once!" The man rushed away without being noticed by Long Jiu or Long Jitian inside the cave. The distance was quite far, and he had been observing while keeping enough distance so as not to be detected by their spiritual senses.Upon arriving at the Long Empire, the figure immediately headed to the palace and met Long Ao Tian."That’s all I know. As for who else is inside, I have no idea. I also didn’t dare get too close!" the spy explained."It doesn’t matter, I am very grateful that you brought me such valuable information. Go now and take your bonus!" Emperor Long Ao Tian always gave rewards to those who made contributions, and the bonus depended on the value of the information they provided. He always treated his people well.But sometimes, if we are too kind to others, we must also be ready to be taken advantage of.Such was the case

Long Jitian felt the strangeness of the situation, but he continued to sneak among the trees within the palace grounds, moving swiftly so as not to be noticed by the guards.Long Jiu was his only family left. He longed to reach the peak—if only for his son—so that the boy could one day become emperor. If he could make that dream come true, his life would end in happiness.Long Jitian knew very well where the imperial prison was located. It was somewhat distant from the main palace buildings, so he felt no great concern. The only thing troubling him was the bitterly cold wind that night, carrying with it a hint of doubt…Set… set… set! He killed three men with ease. Now he stood before the prison gates and began to step inside. Just as his right foot touched the first stair leading down—Dozens of men appeared at once, immediately surrounding him."Long Jitian, you’ve come to save your son? That traitor! But he is not in this prison. The Emperor has locked him away on an island," said

The clash of two fists caused the air to tremble. Both of them were pushed back.The red bird immediately spewed molten fire from its mouth. At the same time, Chen Nian also unleashed his technique."Lightning Sword. Death Strike!"Wush! Boom! Two attacks landed on the demon’s body simultaneously. The demon was thrown back, the loud thud of impact echoing as its body slammed into the ground. Yet, it quickly rose before Chen Nian could launch another strike.Baam! This time, it was the young man who was struck from behind, the demon counterattacking. Chen Nian couldn’t withstand it; his body was hurled across the ground several times before finally crashing into one of the palace pillars."Brother Nian!" Xia Mei screamed when she saw Chen Nian flung away. She immediately rushed toward him, but her hand was quickly grabbed by Emperor Long Ao Tian."Father! Why are you stopping me? I need to save him!" Princess Xia was furious at her father. But when she heard his words, she froze."If y

After gathering a large amount of energy, Chen Nian immediately moved deeper into the forest. On the map, the name of the forest was not mentioned, so he did not know what forest it was nor the reason why he could not fly above it.The red bird emerged from within the ring, forming a human body. Her beautiful appearance, with revealing clothing, could easily mesmerize any man. Chen Nian glared and asked, "Why did you come out?""Call me Zhu Que, isn’t my name beautiful? As beautiful as the person herself." Zhu Que smiled happily because she could walk freely this time. "This forest is very good. I can feel so many pairs of eyes already spying on us—above, below, and behind!" said Zhu Que.Chen Nian immediately went on guard. Previously, he had not sensed anyone spying on them. He put on a serious face and drew a sword."Hahahahaha!" A melodious laugh rang out. Chen Nian looked like a fool in Zhu Que’s eyes. "I was just joking, young master!" she said, then walked ahead while whistling
