nging Temple is, as its name suggests, a hanging Buddhist temple.Only its immense size is remarkable, reaching thousands of feet in height and spanning tens of miles in width. When standing beneath th...Many people have probably already forgotten who Hu Zhuanzi is, even Jiang Wang might not remember the name if he heard it suddenly.
Most ordinary people in this world have such a sense of existence.
Formerly, when Old Hu Gen was still alive, or perhaps there were people who remembered Hu Shuanzi, this simple and honest young man, but after Old Hu Gen passed away, he became even more silent and unnoticed.
As the saying goes, "When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven." Hu Laogen, the former village headman, had no children. He helped his distant relative, Hu Shuai, get a job at the county office, showing some care for his family.
Actually, during this time, Hu Shuanzi also did a lot of things. Maintaining order, transporting supplies, and publicizing plague prevention strategies... In short, he did everything he could.
He also specially sought out those guards who had once protected the mine (now assigned to the Qingyang Town Hall) to learn martial arts. He practiced diligently every day without stopping.
Although Jiang Wang gave Dugu Xiao some power, she truly needs to earn it through her own efforts.
For any command from Dugu Xiao, Hu Shuanzi was the most resolute executor. Initially, it was under his influence that others gradually began to acknowledge Dugu Xiao's leadership.
But that was all he could do. He wanted to do more, but his abilities were limited.
As for Dugu Xiaoxin's emotional changes, he naturally noticed them at the first moment.
He hovered by Dugu Xiao's side several times, seemingly unintentionally, before finally mustering the courage to say: "Xiao Xiao, are you happy today"

Dugu Xiao raised her head and smiled at him: “Yes, Brother Chuan.”
>
And that was that. He didn't explain why he was happy, nor did he seem to want to share his joy with anyone.
She, of course, knew what the bolt meant, but everything that needed to be said had already been said.
In a world where extraordinary powers reign supreme, ordinary people have no future.
She used to think she had no future either.
Therefore, I desperately tried to keep up with Jiang Wang's pace and exerted myself to show my value. It was all because of the lack of security, stemming from an anxiety about the uncertainty of the future.

She was afraid that if she was even a little slow, she would be ruthlessly abandoned. Back into that gray world again.
And now, with Jiang Wang's promise in hand, she even started to anticipate the future a little too much.
In that or perhaps a world of dazzling colors, there was naturally no Hu Shuǎnzi.
She was willing to be a little more friendly towards Hu Shuanzi, just out of appreciation for his kindness. By acting this way, she hoped to earn more respect for him from others. This, in her view, was an equal exchange.
Neither too many nor too few.
Seeing that Dugu Xiao had nothing more to say, Hu Shuanzi chuckled and said, "Then you busy yourself."
For him, that smile was enough.
Actually, Dugu Xia smiles very rarely. Most of the time she has a cold face, which makes her appear more mature than her actual age.
Others perhaps don't know, perhaps don't care.
But he knew, he cared.

Exiting the town hall and crossing the courtyard, he passed by lying in a sun lounger - a recent effort that seemed to be fading like the last flicker of a dying man. After the plague was brought under control, he quickly returned to his old ways. If he could sit, he wouldn't stand; if he could lie down, he wouldn't sit.
"Useless." He suddenly said that as Hu Zhuanzi walked past.
Hu Shuǎnzi did not dare to be negligent, stopped his steps and turned back, respectfully asked: "Lord, are you speaking to me"
He didn't even lift his eyelids, but it was clear there wasn't anyone else here: "Give up. You don't belong in the same world. Even if you stand on your tiptoes, you won't reach." This has always been true, and it will only be truer in the future.
Hu Shuanzi probably understood, but he didn't speak.
"The road is long and arduous..." Xiang Qian sighed, "Brother Zhuan, perhaps we shouldn't go."
>
"I don't know what road is long or short, what people are near or far," Shuanzi said with his characteristic seriousness. "Just looking at it is enough."
The sunlight is truly beautiful, making the world seem vibrant.

“Since you’ve made up your mind. Then work hard, I mean real hard, not like you are now buzzing around aimlessly.”
Lying on my back, I looked up at the cloudless sky. For a moment, I had an illusion that the entire sky was about to collapse. "When you've truly put in the effort, you'll realize...effort is pointless."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
"Okay, to Grandpa."
Hu Shuanzi seemed to understand but actually left in a way that was inexplicable.
Every person sees the world differently.
Though he could leisurely soak up the sun, Hu Shuanzi found it... unbearably hot.

Hengyang County was the foremost of the three counties of Yang Nation, and naturally the capital city was located within this county.
The capital of the Yang Kingdom is called "Zhengheng" - it was originally named "Tianxiong". After it submitted to the Qi Kingdom, it was renamed "Zhengheng", which was many years ago.
>
At this time, in the palace within Zhaoheng City, an ordinary-looking young man was sitting in a side hall waiting.
He was not only unremarkable in appearance but also lacked any extraordinary air about him. Even dressed in fine attire, he seemed out of place and didn't exude an aura of nobility at all.
If Jiang Wang were here, he would recognize him at once. He was the same person they had met at Tianxia Lou in Cang Feng City, the one who called himself the number one killer from the East Region, A Ce.
To hang the mark of a killer organization openly in a bustling city, making it even more lively than an ordinary tavern, naturally means that Heaven's Tower is not an easy place. At the very least, they must have some connections with officials in the area.
But I'm afraid Jiang Wang wouldn't have expected that A Ce could be so extraordinary, able to enter the palace at will.
He is actually the fifth son and youngest son of the current emperor of Yang Kingdom. His surname is Yang, and his given name is Xuan Ce.
It is often said, "The imperial family loves the eldest son, while the common people love the youngest."
Whether or not there's any truth to it, Yang Xuance is definitely not favored.
The Yang Guotong family was quite large. When he was born, all the good portions and privileges had already been claimed by his older brothers. He couldn't even get scraps left over, so he simply gave up any thoughts of court life.
He could have just been a carefree prince, but he insisted on creating a killer organization, calling himself the first assassin in the East. He hired a bunch of idle people to hang around the organization all day, pretending it was a thriving business—when in reality, it was losing money.
This little prince was disliked in everything he did, and everything about him, from his looks to his background.
His mother, a humble palace maid of low standing. His birth was merely a whim of the great King during a drunken stupor.
That poor palace maid, she died mysteriously after giving birth to Yang Xuance. To this day, no one knows what happened to her.
There are some who say it was the then-living Empress Dowager who disapproved, others say it was the Empress... It's unclear, impossible to sort out.
In a nutshell, it's a mess.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The letter Jiang Wang had left behind, he opened it without hesitation. After all, Tianxia Lou wasn't a place known for its integrity.
Originally, it was just an interesting thing. After watching it, he came to Zhaoheng City for the first time.
>
Even if he was scolded for being clueless, he could understand how terrifying the plague ravaging Yang Guo was this time. If that White Bone Daoist had any further moves, it wouldn't be amiss for Yang Guo to be on guard.
He didn't like Chóngchéng at all. He disliked everything about it. The streets, the air, everything had a kind of coldness that made him feel suffocated. So he preferred to hide in Cuángféngchéng and run his not-very-successful assassin business.
But no matter what, his home is still here. He was born here and raised here.
I never expected this. After finally returning home to the palace, I spent several hours sipping tea, repeatedly requesting refills as it grew cold. Yet, I couldn't even see my father.
Your Majesty is truly busy! Yang Xuan策 thought listlessly.
The crown prince can see the king at any time. As a son, he has to make three or five reports before seeing his father.
Though I longed to leave, the thought of that letter...
“How much longer will I have to wait” he tapped his cup impatiently.
>
A young eunuch attending nearby, lowered his head and replied meekly: "This servant... This servant truly doesn't know..."
"Then what do you know"
“I am guilty, I deserve to die.” The little eunuch panicked and only knew how to kneel and beg for mercy.
“That's all there is to it.” Yang Xuance was indeed a little angry, but he held back after all: “It’s not difficult for me to help you. Go ask Eunuch Liu, how much longer will my father be busy I have important matters to discuss with him!”
The little eunuch hurriedly knelt on the ground: "I'll go ask right away."
Once gone, there was no return.
Tea, tea, tea, before a person leaves, the tea turns cold.
He's of imperial blood! Could he possibly be some poor relative trying to latch onto nobility
Even though Yang Xuance was already used to being ignored, being ignored to this extent, being ignored so thoroughly, still made it hard for him to bear.
Don't fight or grab. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't even have the most basic respect!

He simply stood up, ignoring the decrees and the palace maids who tried to stop him. He strode out of the side hall, his sleeves billowing in the wind, and headed straight for the Hall of Mental Cultivation, where the King of Yangguo handled state affairs.
He sneered inwardly. “Let anyone try to stop me!”
As soon as I arrived outside the Yuxin Hall, a kind-faced old man with no mustache appeared silently before me.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Your Highness, where are you going"
>
This man was Liu Huai, the imperial scribe. He was trusted most by the emperor and always served him by his side.
Even the Prince of Yangguo wouldn't dare to be disrespectful to this person.
Upon seeing him, Yang Xuance, despite his immense anger, could only suppress it and say, "Come see my father."
After saying that, he added, feeling even more humiliated, "There's something important!"
"I see..." Liu Huai seemed to have just learned of this, and he smiled ingratiatingly, "Your Highness has worked hard."
"For national affairs, what hardship is too great" Yang Xuance responded with polite platitudes, then reminded, "Is Father currently in the palace hall"
"Ah, your Majesty is here."
"Then, it would be troublesome for Father-in-law to report this." Yang Xuance said.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“As autumn is a busy time for national affairs, Your Majesty is preoccupied with many matters. I will certainly relay your message to His Highness once the elder has finished his current duties.”
Liu Huai respectfully said, "The sun is scorching, Your Highness might as well go drink a cup of tea."
Tea... Again, it's time for tea.
It's waiting again.
This face full of respect, heart full of contempt.
"Bang!"
Yang Xuance could no longer contain himself. He ripped the jade ornament from his waist and smashed it to pieces in front of this person.
He shouted in a furious voice, "Liu Huai! Are you going to obstruct the reunion of the Heavenly Family and sever ties between the Yang clan"
>s his body.Jiang Wang seemed to hear a crack, but also as if he had heard nothing. But the translucent light shield that enveloped Doumian dissipated!Here, the flying leaves of the seven-colored flag...
