Amid the misty drizzle over the wilderness, an ancient tavern loomed faintly through the curtain of rain. The tavern’s eaves curved upward, and raindrops drummed against them with a crisp, rhythmic sound, bringing a sense of tranquility. Inside the tavern, a few tables sat empty. The middle-aged tavern keeper, enjoying the quiet, lazily fanned himself as he reclined on a wooden lounge chair, dozing off to the sound of rain. Through the rain, two figures entered the tavern, one ahead of the other. The…-

Staring at the plump, wriggling worms, the three nobles—who had been accustomed to the finest delicacies—felt an overwhelming wave of disgust. They had seen people eating tree bark and tree cores over the past two days. Since those were technically plants, they didn’t find them too repulsive. But eating worms? That was something else entirely. Perhaps noticing their hesitation, the one-eyed boy chuckled. "That’s normal. I couldn’t eat them at first either… But with injuries like yours, just…-

Not far from the marketplace, there was a secluded alley. At this moment, dozens of government soldiers had gathered outside the alley. Inside, the two Princes and the Royal Prince lay sprawled on the ground, beaten black and blue, their bodies covered in wounds. They were barely conscious, their breaths weak and shallow. The rotund Magistrate Lei took a damp handkerchief from his advisor, carefully wiping the blood off his hands. Once he was done, he crumpled the now-bloodstained handkerchief and…-

Watching the two brothers bicker, only to drag him into the conversation again, Royal Prince Ye was speechless. He curled his lips and said, “Before we return to the capital, we must stick together. Let’s not keep bringing up past grievances.” The Fifth Prince chuckled. “Alright, alright. We’ll settle accounts once we’re back in the capital.” With that, the conversation between the three nephews and uncle came to an end. They all knew that once they returned to the capital, a life-or-death…-

“What are you laughing at?” The Third Prince looked utterly confused. Then, realizing his own tattered appearance, he understood. He did, after all, look rather… shabby. So, he added, “Don’t be fooled by our ragged clothes. Our identities are far beyond what your county magistrate could ever hope to reach. Go summon him immediately—once he sees us, he will understand everything.” The short guard, already struggling to hold in his laughter, nearly passed out from breathlessness as the Third…-

A light breeze swept across the field, causing the half-meter-high wild grass to bend in the wind. As the grass swayed, it revealed three men—each wearing nothing but a pair of underpants. Their breathing was steady, but their bare upper bodies were covered in red, swollen mosquito bites. Before long, one of the men, a middle-aged man, suddenly opened his eyes. Staring up at the star-filled sky, his expression first showed confusion—then quickly shifted to terror. He sat up abruptly and, upon…-

Gu Ning'an’s words caught the three men completely off guard. Never in their wildest dreams did they expect that after being subjected to death threats, Mr. Gu would still speak to them so calmly—and even claim that he had never intended to take their lives! Could this be the magnanimity of an immortal? "Many thanks, Mr. Gu!" The three of them responded in unison, hastily clasping their hands in gratitude. Gu Ning'an waved his hand dismissively and pointed in a direction, saying flatly, "The Great…-

The Third Prince, being young and strong, coupled with his feigned weakness, caught Royal Prince Ye off guard with a sudden kick. It sent him flying, tumbling a few times before landing heavily on the ground. His weapon was flung somewhere unknown. Seeing this, Ye Zhiqing bit her lip hard, her body trembling slightly, yet she made no move to help her father. Meanwhile, the two princes each picked up a weapon that suited them, neither advancing nor retreating. They were well aware of their limits. Even…-

In just moments, the once-mighty “cloud tigers and water dragons” were completely obliterated by the brilliant red radiance. Even Ye Zhiqing, upon being touched by the crimson light, found her movements sluggish, as if she had fallen into a quagmire. The Red Plum Tree Demon extended countless branches, methodically shaping them into a massive bell, which it then slammed down over Ye Zhiqing, trapping her within as she struggled to escape the red glow’s range. As it did so, the tree demon caught…-

Roar~~~! A thunderous roar, shaking the heavens, echoed from the north. At the same time, two terrifying auras spread across the land! The roar was deep and majestic, like the thunder of ancient times, causing the earth to tremble. For a thousand miles around, every demon beast that heard it collapsed to the ground, their bodies trembling uncontrollably. In the dense forest, flocks of birds took flight from the treetops, as if desperate to escape, wanting to put as much distance as possible between…-
