Chapter 32: "It's My Request, Don't Feel Burdened." Sun Xinang had a very hard time these past few days. It wasn’t because the exile journey was tough or that food and drink were limited. It was because Jiang Wu was doing too well. Back in the Empress's palace, Jiang Wu used to obey the Empress without question, having no will of his own. He’d been molded since childhood into what he became, and Sun Xinang had played her part in that. So when she got the task to torment Jiang Wu during…-

Chapter 31: "Look, here comes the question." Even the smallest fish is still meat. While the guards were still eating breakfast, Qin Haoyang quickly gulped down his chicken soup with wild vegetable porridge, wiped his mouth, and headed to the river with the two small fish. The little one imitated him, tilting her head back to finish the porridge in her bamboo cup before following him closely like a little tail. Chu Xiulan, uneasy about the children going to the river alone, followed with her…

Chapter 29: Ashy, Good for Jiang Wu, Good for Everyone "They captured many high-level female ability users and power holders!"

Chapter 30: “Uh-huh, just as funny as I am. Me, a funny pig.” Du Yinsui awakened to birdsong in the dawn-lit forest. Opening her eyes, she saw Jiang Wu already sitting beside her, eagerly scanning their surroundings... It marked the tenth day of exile. No one understood how the guards chose their route northward from the Capital. Only three nights offered shelter: the first at Taoyuan Post Station, the second at Sanqiao Post Station, and the fifth in a dilapidated Mountain Spirit Temple. Since…

Chapter 27: The two spoke almost simultaneously, then faced each other, faces flushing red. As Ma Datou had said earlier, the guards wouldn't kindly let them use hot water to scald bamboo rats for fur removal. Fortunately, by carefully applying Du Yinsui's fire-scorching and scraping method repeatedly, they managed. Young and old worked together, soon cleaning nine whole rats mostly clean through scraping and plucking. The two pre-chopped ones Ma Datou had prepared were trickier than whole rats. But with…

Chapter 28: So this was what it felt like when someone's words pierced straight through the heart... The road to exile was tough; after a day of walking, their legs no longer felt like their own. The usual daily rhythm was gone, and the only sensible thing was to sleep right after their evening meal. That day, several prisoner families lit fires to cook hot meals, roasting and boiling food, so it took longer than previous days for things to quiet down. In the Mountain Spirit Temple, weary snores rose…

Chapter 26: In this world, everything was precious, except for her who felt lowly. Trapped by the poison and troubles of Jin Kingdom, Du Yinsui's scent ability seemed to have its own will. It came and went as it pleased, sometimes restoring partially, sometimes not. Still, she noticed a pattern: eating large amounts quickly might briefly restore her sense of smell. When those questionable mushrooms landed in her stomach, Du Yinsui was overwhelmed by the rich scent of bamboo rats ahead. Meat... The…

Chapter 24: "Sometimes, hatred could keep a person alive." They had departed from the Capital at the end of the ninth lunar month. After five days on the road, they had now entered October. As time marched toward winter, their journey led northward. Linzhou was notoriously desolate and bitterly cold. Du Yinsui touched her half-empty stomach and glanced at the thin clothing worn by those around her. In their current state, they wouldn't even survive Linzhou's hardships—they'd likely perish on…

Chapter 25: Within the dark eyes, astonishment and resignation gave way to panic... Outside, rain poured as though the heavens had cracked open. Water swiftly pooled beneath the broken roof sections of the Mountain Spirit Temple. Chu Xiulan took the little one's bird-printed clothes to a leak near the wooden cart, scrubbing them with rainwater. Nearing dusk without the morning's sun, she dared not bathe the child too. Without soap, she could only rub vigorously. The tiny garments required little time;…

Chapter 23: The fearsome little Du girl continued to rummage through Jiang Wu’s prison clothes... Ten miles from Fushan County, a melon-eating man lay on the riverbank, lucky to hit a rare patch of sand, leaving only a small stone mark on his elbow. In the courtyard of the Loyal and Brave General’s residence in the Capital, a half-empty wine jug fell onto the blue brick floor, shattering with a clang as its contents splashed everywhere. Xue Menghua covered her nose and pushed open the door to the…
