“I’ve already told you, I have someone I like. If you keep pestering me, I won’t be polite anymore,” Liangzi said with a tone full of helplessness.
At some unknown moment, the Unnamed Sword had silently drawn from its sheath, invisible and soundless. Its pristine blade now bore a streak of black along the edge. Though it seemed to mar the sword’s beauty, it made the blade sharper and more fierce.
“I really have seen it,” Lin Mo pondered, then used a memory search capsule to confirm it.
“General, the Wei troops defending the city seem very strong! The current battle situation appears unfavorable to us!” Outside the city, a Qin army officer reported to Meng Fei.
Seeing him drenched in sweat, Xingchen suddenly recalled the time he had bandaged his wounds after an accident. Suppressing the nausea rising in his stomach, he stepped forward.
“Young master’s uncle went to attend a banquet at Ji Wuye’s residence in his stead, and was ambushed!” Zhang Han said after some thought, his voice grave.
Following the innkeeper’s arrangement, the five of them moved to a quiet spot on the second floor, which also had a window offering a good vantage point over Long City.
Beside them, Xi Zhicai shook his head slightly but said nothing further, only sighing with a hint of helplessness as he glanced at Jia Xu. It wasn’t jealousy but rather a feeling that Jia Xu’s strategies were too ruthless, lacking honor.

Yun Luoxi concealed the excitement and disdain in her eyes; the previous jealousy had completely vanished.
“Come to my office this afternoon to pick it up!” Karine tossed out this remark and left immediately, giving no chance for explanation.
After bathing, Mu Fanxi realized it had been a false alarm—nothing had happened to the screen—and finally relaxed, exhaling deeply.
The moment they looked at Lu Fangyin, everyone stepped forward to offer congratulations. Yet throughout, Lu Fangyin remained composed, her face calm as she busied herself with her own affairs.

On July 30th, two carriages entered the county town one after another. One passed through the side gate directly into the Fengqiu County government compound, while the other stopped outside the gate.
