It was early morning on the second day. Nangong Xi'er slowly opened her eyes. She hadn't slept so well in a long time, as if all her strength had dissipated and she was floating above the clouds, free and peaceful. Even though she knew it was because she had lost all her cultivation, she still felt very happy. Because she dreamed of two people she hadn't seen for a long time. One was a beautiful young woman in a white dress, standing under a peach blossom tree, holding an umbrella and smiling at her. The other was a thin figure with a long sword hanging from his waist, facing away from her, climbing up the mountain. It was her mother and her second senior brother. "Sister." A clear voice suddenly called her. "You're awake. Come and have breakfast." Nangong Xi'er propped herself up on the bed board and rubbed her eyes. She looked at the young man in front of her who was drinking porridge and asked in confusion, "When did I fall asleep?" "You fell asleep as soon as you got on the boat." Su Baiyi smiled. "Nailuo brought a bowl of hot water. Sister, you should wash up first and then come and drink some porridge. Let me tell you, the fish slice porridge on this boat is amazing. I've never had such delicious porridge before." Nangong Xi'er got out of bed and walked to the window. She picked up a hot towel and washed her face. She finally woke up and asked, "Who is Nailuo?" "She said…

"Three, three, five, eleven." The casino was silent, and only the rich man slowly read out the number on the table, "It's big." "I won." Su Baiyi clenched his right fist and said word by word. “You won.” Mu Nianhua smiled slightly and picked up the pearl on the table, putting it back on the hairpin on his head. “It seems that this pearl is really hard to give away.” "My condition." Su Baiyi raised his head slightly, looking serious. "Everyone present, listen carefully. The esteemed guests of the Heaven Floor, Su Baiyi and his wife, while aboard this Golden Wind, their lives are as precious as my own. To harm them is to harm me, and to oppose them is to oppose our Mu family." Mu Nianhua declared, his sleeves fluttering, "If you wish to kill them, then kill me first." Su Baiyi smiled with relief, “Thank you.” "May the loser accept defeat." Mu Nianhua shrugged. On the second floor of the elegant seat, a window was quietly closed at this time. “The Mu family of Qingzhou, interesting.” A heavy voice said. "Vice-Chair, this Seventh Young Master of the Mu family may seem frivolous, but he is the chosen candidate for marriage by the Ye family, so it's highly likely he'll be the next heir to the family headship. If we were to kill him, we'd be offending the entire business world." "Then let’s offend them. I am a knife that kills people and never asks how to wipe off blood after killing. These are things you need to…

"Young master..." Nailuo whispered, with a hint of apology in her tone. The one who leaped down from the second floor's elegant seat and stood beside her was none other than the seventh son of the Mu family, Mu Nianhua. The entire gambling hall became silent in an instant. The Mu family's son personally appeared, what a grand gesture. This was just a few bets, what could have drawn him here? "You're still too young." Mu Nianhua scratched Nailuo's head, with a touch of indulgence in his voice. "You don't want to lose, do you?" Nailuo bit her lip, and finally lifted her hand slightly that was holding the treasure box. "Forget it." Mu Nianhua's hand suddenly pressed down hard, and crushed the treasure box along with the three dice inside. Then he casually shook his hand, and said in a careless tone. "I accidentally used too much force. It seems that the treasure boxes on the ship are too fragile. I'll have them all replaced later." Su Baiyi smiled and did not get angry. "I didn't expect that the dignified Mu family would resort to such tricks?" "Of course not." Mu Nianhua took out a pearl from his chest and placed it on the table. "Night-bright pearl!" Someone in the hall exclaimed. "This pearl is called Wen Duo, and it was a gift I received on my birthday one year. I originally gave it to your little lady, but you returned it to me. This pearl is worth three boxes of gold, do you want to bet?" Mu Nianhua…

I, Sedam, and Leiha were at the gate of Jiiteias castle. The soldiers lined up on both sides as if to form a path of honor, and the servants and the people of Shulz also gathered to see us off. Among them, the one who clung to me was still Diane. "Hey, my lord. Are you sure you don't need me to go with you? I would protect you no matter what, you know?" "......Yeah, yeah. I appreciate that, but..." I was almost tempted by her desperate plea, but I managed to resist. I admit that Diane is a competent warrior and commander, but this time we are not going to fight. She is loyal to me, even to the point of fanaticism, but she is too impulsive for a diplomatic envoy. And besides. "......Do you remember? Their origin, the Shulz tribe." Sedam whispered in my ear. "Yeah. I know." I had only heard it briefly before, but according to the legend, they were the descendants of the "God King". It was a distant myth, and there was no proof that they were the same as the "God King" who was consumed by hatred and became the first "focal point". But it would be too risky to take her with us this time. First of all, we should gather more information about the dark demons and then decide what to do with her. "Let me go with you, please. It's fine, right? You can dump me along the way if I get in your way." "......Diane." I had heard the…
