In the afternoon, Ma Feifei lay on a rocking chair basking in the sun. The late autumn sun was still quite warm, making people feel lazy and listless.

Today was a rare day off, but Ma Feifei didn't want to go anywhere. He was feeling lazy and just wanted to sleep forever.

The entire Dubian Town was in an uproar, with everyone discussing the news that the Qin State army had breached Changping City of Yan State. Even the trading market was affected, with foot traffic decreasing by as much as 30%.

A somber atmosphere permeated Dubian Town, clearly due to the Qin State's recent breach of Changping City in Yan State.

The key issue was actually the Human Butcher Qin Shuren. If Qin State Qin Shuren, it might not have caused such a sensation on the Azure Dragon Continent.

"Clang, clang, clang~"

Inside the kitchen, Zhang Caicai was still teaching his novice apprentice Mu Qingyi how to cook, while Ba Jiu was also learning along, finding it all very exciting.

Annoyed, Ma Feifei shouted, "Ba Jiu!"

"Shopkeeper, what's wrong?" Ba Jiu ran out, his face covered in dust, chewing on a chicken leg. It was black and obviously burnt, no one knew who had made it.

"Are you planning to learn to cook?" Ma Feifei asked slowly, looking at Ba Jiu's expression.

"Yes, shop owner, I've discovered that cooking is really fun." Ba Jiu vigorously, replying with an excited expression. He seemed to have found a new hobby, and one he really enjoyed.

"Bang!" Ma Feifei slapped the rocking chair, startling Ba Jiu, who instinctively took two steps back.

"W-what's wrong?" Ba Jiu was a little flustered, clutching the hem of her clothes with both hands, looking nervous.

"Have you forgotten something?" Ma Feifei said fiercely.

"Huh?" Ba Jiu looked completely bewildered, having no idea what Ma Feifei was talking about.

Seeing this, Ma Feifei couldn't help but sigh, rubbed her forehead, and, too lazy to argue with Ba Jiu, asked, "How's your painting coming along?"

Upon hearing this, Ba Jiu realized what Ma Feifei had just said. He quickly came over, squatted down beside Ma Feifei, and took out a scroll from his spatial ring. The scroll depicted a lifelike Qilin.

"Look, shopkeeper, this is what I drew. Isn't it good?" Ba Jiu said with a smug look on his face. In fact, his drawing skills were already very high. Not to mention anything else, just take drawing Qilin for example. He had drawn it no less than five or six times, and each time it was better than the last. Now he could draw it with his eyes closed.

Ma Feifei took the scroll, examined it carefully, and nodded slightly. The Qilin depicted was quite similar to Ba Jiu's true form, which was enough to prove that Ba Jiu had indeed studied painting diligently.

"Now that you've learned it, there's no time like the present. Let's go to the Bookstore today and have the Qilin painted on that pillar," Ma Feifei said, putting away the scroll and returning it to Ba Jiu.

The Four Spirit Pillars are now only missing the last one, which is blank. Since Ba Jiu has the ability to draw the Qilin, Ma Feifei naturally hopes that Ba Jiu can draw the Qilin as soon as possible so that he can see what changes will happen to the Bookstore after the Four Spirit Pillars are completed.

"Alright!" Ba Jiu didn't hesitate and ran into the Bookstore. It was the weekend, and there were no customers in the Bookstore, which made it convenient for him to draw the Four Spirit Pillars.

Seeing this, Ma Feifei prepared to get up and follow him inside, but suddenly remembered something, so he sat down again, took out the Investiture of the Gods, opened it, and looked at it over and over.

"Luan Feng led the Luanfeng Army back to Yan State to resist the Qin Army cavalry. This war is destined to kill many people. Could we capture some people in this war and put them on the Investiture of the Gods?" Ma Feifei looked at the Investiture of the Gods, which only listed the name of Zuo Duanshou, the Qi State's Number One Villain, and fell into deep thought.

The great war between Qin and Yan will undoubtedly involve the full strength of their nations. Not only ordinary soldiers, but also many highly skilled cultivators will participate in the battle. In such a fierce battle, the deaths of important figures are inevitable. If we can recruit some of these important figures, it would not only solve the problem of their deaths but also allow us to gather some living beings to unlock new licensing rights when the Bookstore reaches LV4.

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei clapped his hands, put the Investiture of the Gods into his spatial ring, and called out to Yun Qingyang on the roof, "Let's go, Qingyang, let's go out for a bit."

"I'm not going," Yun Qingyang said, shaking her head. She was busy right now, painting whenever she had free time to earn more money. Her schedule was packed, so she didn't have any time to go out with Ma Feifei.

"Let's go, I'll take you to earn lots and lots of Spirit Crystal." Ma Feifei already knew what could make Yun Qingyang obedient.

"Whoosh!"

Sure enough, Yun Qingyang appeared beside Ma Feifei, carrying a fragrant scent. Ma Feifei sniffed and asked curiously, "Where did this fragrance come from?"

"A scent? Is there one?" Yun Qingyang raised her hand and sniffed her arm, saying with a puzzled look, "No!"

"No?" Ma Feifei circled around Yun Qingyang and sniffed closely. He found that Yun Qingyang did indeed have a faint fragrance. The fragrance was very strange, and Ma Feifei couldn't tell what it was. But the only thing he was sure of was that it was not a floral scent.

"Strange." Ma Feifei looked puzzled. He had known Yun Qingyang over a year and had never smelled this fragrance on her before. At first, he thought she had applied Yun Qingyang, but upon closer inspection, he realized it wasn't.

"What are you doing?" Yun Qingyang asked, fidgeting and looking around, feeling a little uncomfortable under Ma Feifei's gaze.

"Don't move." Ma Feifei walked around to Yun Qingyang's side, grabbed her shoulder to steady her swaying body, but his eyes were fixed on Yun Qingyang's fair neck.

Suddenly, Ma Feifei stuck his face inside and licked it with his tongue.

"Smack..." Ma Feifei smacked his lips, savoring the taste, his brows furrowing. He turned and walked towards his room, muttering to himself as he went, "How strange, where did this fragrance come from?"

"Whew!"

"Click click click~~"

The sound of ice forming echoed everywhere. Startled, Ma Feifei didn't care about anything else and took off running.

"Whoosh!"

Yun Qingyang appeared above Ma Feifei and tackled Ma Feifei to the ground.

"Bang!"

"Ouch~ That hurts...!"

"Smack!"

"Ah! I was wrong..."

"..."

On November 10th of the 351st year of the Zhonghe era of the Great Chu, the Qin State army of 500,000 men, led by the Human Butcher Qin Shuren, breached the border Changping City of the Yan State. The 300,000 Yan State who resisted the Qin State cavalry were all wiped out by the Qin State cavalry.

When Changping City fell, millions of people who had been staying in the Changping City scattered and fled. The Human Butcher Qin Shuren ordered Pursuit, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.

On the eleventh day, the Qin Army of 500,000 continued its northward march, conquering Norman of Yan State territory, more than ten cities, and massacring hundreds of thousands of Yan State citizens.

The news shocked the world.

Just when everyone thought that the Yan State was doomed, the former Yan State's God of War, General Luanfeng, an employee of the Mysterious Bookstore, returned to the Yan State with 50,000 Luanfeng Army and announced that he would take over all military affairs of the Yan State and become the supreme military commander of the Yan State.

On the 13th, the Yan Army and the Qin Army each had 400,000 troops, totaling 800,000 soldiers.

Luan Feng, the God of War of Yan State; Qin Human Butcher, the Qin Shuren of Qin State.

The Baichuan City stands in stark contrast to the Baichuan Plain!
