"What is it?"
The two asked in unison, their voices full of urgency.
"It's a sachet, said to ward off insects." Li Renhao replied.
"Quick, take it out!"
The two urgently said.
But Li Renhao hesitated and hemmed and hawed for a long time before finally saying with an ugly look: "At the time I thought he was just an ordinary person, so I didn't take the sachet seriously and I don't know when I lost it somewhere."
"What did you say?"
Li Jiaxin and Xu Mo Zhu's blood rushed to their heads, and their full aura erupted in this moment, their eyes fixed on Li Renhao.
They never imagined that the opportunity that others had spent their whole lives and paid a great price to obtain, yet never encountered, was actually lost by Li Renhao.
"I'm asking you, where did you lose it?"
Li Jiaxin asked in a trembling voice, extremely urgent.
"I, I don't know, I really didn't mean to!" Li Renhao said with her head down, under the pressure of the two she was enduring tremendous stress, and she knew that Li Jiaxin and Xu Mo Zhu, who were usually very doting on her, were truly angry this time.
"You don't know, you actually don't know!?"
Li Jiaxin raised her palm as if to hit her, but in the end restrained herself, her face flushed as she trembled and shouted at Li Renhao: "Li Renhao, Li Renhao, it's too bad you are from my Li family. How can you be so muddled when doing things!"
"Do you know, my master and I paid the price of the Li Family's spatial ring to obtain this opportunity, yet you obtained the opportunity and threw it away. You've really done it now!"
"That's right Renhao, this time it's not your master speaking out of turn, do you know what great opportunity you've thrown away?" Xu Mo Zhu also spoke excitedly and rebuked: "This senior must at least be at the Martial Saint level. From our brief encounter with him earlier, we saw two Saint-grade treasures, and the sachet he gave you could also very likely be a Saint-grade treasure. You actually threw away something like this, if not for the fact that you are my sole disciple, I would have killed my own kin for justice!"
"Saint-grade?"
Xu Mo Zhu's words instantly made Li Renhao's mind go blank.
Even though she saw how agitated her aunt and master were, she still hadn't guessed that it was Saint-grade, after all, even one Lord-grade treasure taken out could set off a storm of blood and violence, let alone Saint-grade?
In that moment, she regretted it so much her guts turned green, and tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.
"Master, Auntie, I really know I was wrong. I really didn't think this sachet was so important, I thought it was just an ordinary sachet used by a common person!" Li Renhao said as she cried, hurriedly explaining.
"Humph! Li Renhao, you should know that this lost opportunity is not only yours alone, it is also the Li Family's, and the Imperial Sword Sect's!" Li Jiaxin's face was full of frost as she bitterly and angrily taught: "If we had this opportunity, perhaps you could have led the Imperial Sword Sect and our Li Family up another level, but you, you threw it away!"
"You, you, you......"
In her anger, Li Jiaxin felt a blockage in her chest, and coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood.
Seeing this, Li Renhao's face paled even more, as she cried she hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't get angry, I'll go find it, I will definitely get it back."
"What do you mean you'll go find it, Saint-grade treasures have attained perfection and reversion, they basically emit no aura fluctuations, only careful examination can reveal their profound meaning. And there are so many mountain ranges in Shogunate Mountain, so what can you find on your own?" Li Jiaxin berated.
"I..."
Li Renhao lowered her head, choking on her words, at this time she truly did not know what to do.
If she had known earlier how important this sachet was, how could she have treated it so carelessly. She could only blame herself for being blind and not recognizing its value!
"Forget it, finding the sachet is most urgent now." At this time, Xu Mo Zhu said with an iron-green face: "I plan to go back and mobilize all of my Imperial Sword Sect's disciples to come search the mountain for this sachet."
"Good!"
Li Jiaxin wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. She also understood that compared to lecturing Li Renhao, finding the sachet was more important. So she also quickly said: "I will also go back and notify the Li Family to send people to help search together."
"There's no time to delay, let's set off immediately. I can only hope that we can still find this sachet!"
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
