Chao Yan walked aimlessly along the road that seemed to have no end. She had been walking for a very long time, perhaps it felt like years, but the road in front of her was still similar, covered by a white mist. Why couldn't she reach the end? This question echoed through her mind.

As for why she didn't want to stop, why she didn't want to give up even after "walking for years", Chao Yan herself didn't know the reason. Maybe it was just her stubbornness.

She was determined to obtain that divine strand, make that wish, and reach the end.

Nie Shuang looked curiously at the grand palace she was in. It was magnificent, with a grand throne placed at the highest point, seemingly watching over her.

The palace seemed to be bustling with more and more people. Nie Shuang couldn't make out what they were saying, but there was music and dancing in the great hall, and the sounds of stringed and wind instruments filled the air.

As she took in her surroundings, Nie Shuang was suddenly held by a pair of warm hands. When she turned her head, she met a pair of tender and caressing eyes.

He, the beautiful man, was looking at her?

At that moment, everyone in the grand hall stopped their revelry and bowed in unison in that direction. At that moment, Nie Shuang felt that her heart was beating too fast...

Bai Lan looked at the scene in front of her in astonishment, rooted to the spot by what she saw.

Chao Yan was sitting half-dressed on a man's lap, her face remarkably flushed, her eyes half open, a mixture of charm and indulgence in her expression. Her lips and eyes glistened with moisture...

The man, his head bowed as if about to kiss Chao Yan, seemed to sense Bai Lan's gaze and raised his head.

Bai Lan felt a tightness in her chest. Wasn't he the man who claimed to love only her sister? It was as if a flood of thoughts overwhelmed her. Wasn't he supposed to be faithful? Wasn't he in love with the gentle and dignified Bai Xin? Why was he holding Chao Yan now? Did he really not love Bai Xin, but only her beauty and status?

As Bai Lan seethed with anger, she felt her finger press against something soft and warm. Looking down, she saw Chao Yan kneeling, her head raised, her beautiful lips wrapped around her finger.

Bai Lan froze again, feeling the touch too clearly, as if the finger she was holding was melting away...

---- This is the border between places.

The Meizu clan is a tragic race; regardless of gender, they are merely vessels for others. They are beautiful and innocent, but after enduring humiliation, they face nothing but annihilation.

Fo Sang is the only survivor of her clan, though she's not sure if she's lucky or unlucky. She wasn't captured to become a lowly vessel, but was brought back to the city lord's mansion by Chen Yongle.

For the past three years, Chen Yongle has taken meticulous care of her. Her body has been kept in top condition, and Chen Yongle often spends time with her. Of course, it's mainly to personally teach her knowledge, how to play chess with the goal of mastering it, to teach her medical skills, and how to serve women. Chen Yongle teaches her everything hand in hand. Even when she gets lost in the lessons, Chen Yongle's eyes remain clear.

All this is for Chao Yang.

Learning chess well is for Chen Yongle to be able to accompany Chao Yang in the best way, to make sure that Chao Yang doesn't lose interest, but also to make sure that she doesn't perform badly or make Chao Yang look bad when she loses.
