What's going on? The skinny young man's mind went blank for a moment, unable to distinguish who was the assassin.
But feeling the tremendous pressure on his throat, he regained clarity, staring in fear at the little boy in front of him.
What kind of monster is this? Not even seven years old, yet possessing ...

He had long since let go of any utilitarian mindset and focused wholeheartedly, which was why he now possessed the "chess heart."
Using chess as a tool to practice martial arts was an idea he couldn't accept now.
He even felt a strong urge to use t...

2024-08-14 05:29:29 +0000 UTC View PostLi Hao pondered whether if he were to undergo bone measuring again, the results would be different.
But there was only one chance, and no one believed that the old Taoist from Qingqiu Mountain would make a mistake.
Since the day the bone measuring ended, he could clearly feel the liveliness in the Shanhe Co...

He Jianlan, poised and dignified, sat on the smoothly polished golden nanmu grandmaster's chair, listening to the trembling report of a young servant before her. She was slightly moved.
She had heard that the child was precocious, very clever, but unfortunately lacking in martial...

Bian Ruxue's barrel of potion had become completely clear, with no trace of the liquid left.
The maids dressed her in clean new clothes, dried her hair, and stood by Li Hao's barrel, unaware of the significance of it all, simply waiting quietly for Li Hao to emerge.
In contrast, Li Hao...

He was a short, sturdy middle-aged man with dark skin, wearing an elegant green robe, named Lin Haixia, a name that sounded like a girl's....
2024-08-14 05:01:36 +0000 UTC View PostAs consciousness flickered, a sudden influx of information surged into his mind.
Li Hao clutched his head, feeling it swell as if it was about to burst.
This made him look pained.
"Hao'er, what's wrong?"
Liu Yue noticed Li Hao's discomfort and jumped in fright, quickly asking with concern.
Liu Bei, unaware of Chen Zichuan's intentions, continued to greet Qu Qi with a smile. Hua Xiong's letter had already reached Liu Bei's hands, and naturally, Liu Xuande, who came from a humble background, understood the importance of grain to the people of the world.
Reaching out to help Qu Qi down from the carria...
2024-08-12 17:19:19 +0000 UTC View PostChen Xi had no idea what was going through Liu Bei's mind. If he knew, considering Liu Bei's previous actions, he would probably give him the title of a "melodramatic hero." But speaking with such grandiose words, even Chen Xi found himself extending his hand in confusion. If it were anyone else, they might have been...
2024-08-12 17:02:52 +0000 UTC View PostChen Xi left Liu Bei's house feeling utterly disoriented. When did he become so melodramatic? Is it true that if you aren't dramatic, you aren't young? What a joke! Chen Xi was depressed.

2024-08-12 17:01:13 +0000 UTC View PostChen Xi was dumbfounded. What was Liu Bei talking about, saying such things? "Deeply indebted to the imperial grace, I cannot harbor any ambition for the throne!" You're not that kind of person! In history, you ascended to the throne. Now you say you have no ambition for it—is this a joke?
Seeing Chen Xi's as...

Although his administrative duties were almost nonexistent, to promote harmony among the civil officials, Chen Xi decided to take a stack of manuscripts home. Being envied for no reason wasn’t pleasant. Even someone as carefree as Liu Yan, who...
2024-08-12 16:56:16 +0000 UTC View PostThat’s why Liu Yan, this idle talker, could mingle with Lu Su and the others. Even Lu Su and Liu Ye now had a high opinion of his abilities.

Of course, this was partly due to Liu Yan...
2024-08-12 16:54:55 +0000 UTC View PostLu Su felt helpless. Although it wasn’t appropriate to bother Chen Xi with governmental affairs immediately after his victory, seeing Chen Xi act so stubbornly, Lu Su knew there was no chance of getting help today. Today was just a reminder; Chen Xi would likely take over the current troublesome affairs of Qingzhou...
2024-08-12 16:53:36 +0000 UTC View Post“Xuzhou's Tao Qian would be the best choice, but since Taishan County, the gateway to Xuzhou, is in Liu Xuande's hands, we can't border them directly. Thus, borrowing grain is out of the question,” Xun Yu said calmly. “So, like Liu Xuande, we must use weakness to pressure strength. We’ll target here.”
The near thousand support troops that Cao Hong had arranged not far from the front were scattered by Hua Xiong's single strike. No one was foolish enough to stay and fight against such an unbeatable force; they all ran faster than rabbits, knowing it was wiser to flee than to stand their ground.
Although Hua Xi...

2024-08-12 16:49:16 +0000 UTC View PostHua Xiong was currently very irritated. Quite a few people had been eyeing his horses, and the most shameless of them was a county magistrate who tried to accuse Hua Xiong of stealing horses and attempted to arrest him. How could Hua Xiong tolerate this? In the end, he beat the magistrate half to death and left. Li R...
2024-08-12 16:47:57 +0000 UTC View PostThinking about this, Chen Xi couldn't help but think of Guan Yu, who governed Jingzhou during the Three Kingdoms period. This also fell under the category of military and governmental power in one hand. Liu Bei didn't have many sons or relatives, just two sworn brothers, so Guan and Zhang were the obvious choices. 2024-08-12 16:44:27 +0000 UTC View Post
As expected, no one obstructed their journey, and Ju Shou's already dark face turned even graver.
Upon reaching the Jizhou border, Chen Xi invited Ju Shou off the carriage, "Please forgive me, Ju Gong, for the necessity of ensuring my safety. I believe Gao Yuanbo will arrive shortly, so please wait here. Yide, ...

2024-08-12 16:37:09 +0000 UTC View PostSeeing someone he shouldn't have seen, Chen Xi's mood was extremely bad. If it weren't for needing to stay in Jizhou for a few more days to wait for news from Madam Zhang, he would have already returned to Taishan.
