Chapter 11 – Back into the Wolf’s Den Chu Kuang was dragged out of the iron cage, his hands and feet shackled with chains. After a payment of two taels of silver, the other end of the chain was handed over to Fang Jingyu. Fang Jingyu glanced at him—hunched over, trembling all over. Not from fear, but grinding his teeth in fury, coiled like a spring, as if ready to pounce and tear at his skin any moment. The slave broker counted the silver with a grin almost stretching to his ears. With the…- 450.2 K • Completed
- Chapter 12 – Ample Bosom, Plump Hips Chu Kuang thrashed about only briefly before going limp, as if all the bones had been drawn from his body. He collapsed unconscious. Already injured, his outburst had drained him of much of his remaining strength. Once they had laid him back on the couch, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Jiao gave Zheng Deli a strange look and said, “Young Master Zheng, who would’ve thought you were a beast in gentleman’s clothing—into tongue-wrestling…

- Chapter 13 – A Single Arrow Stirring the Dust Chu Kuang had now settled in at Fang Jingyu’s home. He changed into a plain blue robe, tucked away his claws and fangs, and spent his days quietly sweeping the courtyard with head lowered and brows relaxed. Fang Jingyu treated him as a suspect and often tried to probe his background, but Chu Kuang’s mouth seemed locked shut; he refused to utter a single word about his past. If pressed too hard, he would roll his eyes back, pretend to foam at the…

- Chapter 14 – The Vipashyin Blade In front of the training ground, dust choked the dim daylight. Fang Jingyu stood with his pommel-guarded sword in hand, gazing into the distance. Yellow sand drifted endlessly; city towers loomed, rough and worn. In the darkened sky, a peregrine falcon cut through the stormy wind like a blade. All at once, Fang Jingyu thought of the slave imprisoned in his courtyard. That man had hawk-like, razor-sharp eyes. The menace in his bearing, paired with unexpectedly…

- Chapter 15 – Snow’s Wrath, Ice’s Hunger After returning from Zhenhai Pass, Fang Jingyu walked slowly back toward Qingyuan Alley. It had been half a month since the Yu Yin Guard summoned him to the training grounds, and only now did a belated sense of worry rise in his heart. What had become of his home in his absence? Could Qin Jiao and Zheng Deli manage the prisoner in the courtyard? What if that suspect, Chu Kuang, had turned on them and fled after killing them? What then? Fang Jingyu let…

Chapter 27: Marriage Certificate in Hand “Wasn’t it a company benefit?” “Of course it was! The boss said so, so it must be!” Judy, under Shen Hechuan’s deadly gaze, had her soul almost leave her body. She put on a robotic smile and said, “Of course it was a company benefit! Our company has great benefits. I’ll make sure to give Xiao Man my Lego too!” Qiao Le: “…” Now she’s just babbling. “I’ll leave you two to cultivate your feelings, hahahaha,” Judy quickly…- 182.5 K • Completed
Aeryl wasn’t even from the North—he was a Southerner. Though they shared a common imperial language across the Empire, the people were ethnically and linguistically different. Naturally, regional bias was unavoidable. It was well-known that the people of the Grand Duchy were closed off toward outsiders and tightly bonded among themselves. Aeryl had already experienced this firsthand when he opened a clinic in the Edge of the World Village. Still, he had hoped things might be different this…- 279.4 K • Completed

Yudit tucked the curtain into his arms and ran back toward them. Just as he and Khalid were about six paces apart, the ceiling shook violently, sending embers cascading down. Several large sparks landed on Yudit, and broken bricks struck his shoulder and calf. The impact was too much—he stumbled and rolled across the floor. “Yudit!” “Your Highness!” Yudit raised a hand from where he had fallen, signaling that he was fine. Then, limping, he approached them. “This should be enough…- 396.9 K • Completed
- Norton exhaled slowly and said, "Seven, starting tomorrow, you’ll come here every day. I’ll hand over these identities to you in batches." He paused, then suddenly pressed the gun hard against Mo Zimu’s forehead, his tone turning vicious. "But if you dare play any tricks…" "This is Mammon, isn’t it?" Mo Zimu raised his hands slightly in a gesture of surrender. "It’s surrounded by water, with nowhere to run. You need my help to get out, and, conveniently, I need yours too." Norton’s thin…
