"Write a book?" Upon hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.

"Shopkeeper, I don't know how to write a book!" Ba Jiu said somewhat awkwardly. He could handle doing manual labor, but asking him to write a book was really asking too much of a question.

"It's alright. If you don't understand, find someone who does, or even have someone write it for you. Anyway, everyone has to complete a book. All your books will have your names on them. I will have these books copied and distributed to major Azure Dragon Library across the continent for people to read." Ma Feifei slapped the table and said with a serious expression.

In fact, being able to write a book and put it into the Azure Dragon Library is an honor for most people, because the Azure Dragon Library is destined to be an expanded version of the Mysterious Bookstore. Although the quality of the books may not be as high as those in the Mysterious Bookstore, the Azure Dragon Library itself has a relatively low threshold, and the level of cultivators who enter to read it will not be too high, so it is enough to provide for them to read.

"Can I write about anything? Then could I write a book about cooking?" Zhang Caicai also became interested. He joined Mysterious Bookstore relatively late and missed last year's Mysterious Bookstore events, so he was still somewhat interested in writing a book.

"Then it's settled. Each of you will write one and show it to me later." Ma Feifei made the final decision. After speaking, he glanced at Yun Qingyang and found that Yun Qingyang did not react and was sitting blankly to the side, lost in thought.

"Qingyang!" Ma Feifei called out.

"Hmm?" Yun Qingyang snapped out of her daze and glanced at Ma Feifei.

"You have to write too, understand?" Ma Feifei said with a serious expression.

Yun Qingyang paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

Ma Feifei was relieved and picked up her chopsticks, saying, "Alright, let's eat."

Upon hearing this, everyone picked up their chopsticks and began to eat, but each person wore a different expression, seemingly pondering how to write the new book.

After dinner, Ma Feifei returned to her room. Looking at the bare walls, she thought for a moment but then went back inside.

Book Battle Continent, Yong'an City, Yi He Mansion.

Ma Feifei emerged from the tunnel and found birds chirping outside. Light streamed in through the windows, and he could see the sun shining through the tunnel.

It was clearly already broad daylight outside.

"Crunch"

As Ma Feifei stepped out of the room, she saw Wang Han rushing towards her, led by Yi He.

"Shopkeeper!"

"What's wrong?" Ma Feifei looked at the hurried Wang Han, and a bad feeling welled up in her heart.

"Li Chenzhou has been captured by the people of Yong'an Prefecture!" Wang Han said in a terrified voice as he approached Ma Feifei.

"Li Chenzhou has been arrested!" Ma Feifei was slightly startled. He knew Li Chenzhou; he was Book Slave in Yong'an Prefecture, and Book Slave that Yong'an Prefecture had assumed was dead. Now that they had discovered Li Chenzhou was still alive, they arrested him. His fate was predictable.

"This morning I was going out to buy some materials, Li Chenzhou couldn't stand the loneliness and wanted to come with me, so I agreed. But I didn't expect that we would be surrounded by people from Yong'an Prefecture shortly after we left and Sheer Force take Li Chenzhou away," Wang Han said sadly.

He didn't know how Li Chenzhou escaped from Yong'an Prefecture, but there were rules in the Book Battle Continent that Book Slave were the personal property of their masters. If Book Slave escaped without permission, it was a capital offense, and if caught and brought back, they would basically be beaten to death.

Not to mention a behemoth like Yong'an Prefecture, the fact that Book Slave dared to escape from Yong'an Prefecture without permission is Taunt to Yong'an Prefecture, and they would absolutely not allow Book Slave to live.

However, Ma Feifei is currently wanted by Yong'an City and doesn't know anyone Yong'an City, so he can't help Li Chenzhou at all.

"If Master Scribe can use Yi He's knowledge, please don't hesitate to ask. I do know Yi He stewards in Yong'an Prefecture, but I don't know which number this Li Chenzhou is under." Yi He suddenly spoke up from the side.

Ma Feifei was quite surprised, not expecting Yi He to offer to help him. However, he was a bit confused about which group Li Chenzhou belonged to.

At this moment, Wang Han spoke up, saying, "Li Chenzhou is Book Slave under the Xun family's command. The head of the Xun family is Xun Ling, Third-rank Author."

"Holy crap!" Ma Feifei blurted out instinctively upon hearing this. How come he keeps running into this old acquaintance everywhere he goes?

Ma Feifei's rant caught their attention, and they both turned to look at Ma Feifei.

"Ahem, it's nothing, you can continue." Ma Feifei coughed lightly, signaling them to continue, but her feelings were extremely complicated.

"I do have some connections with this Master Scribe Xun. Otherwise, I could send someone to inquire what Li Chenzhou has done wrong and whether he can be treated leniently," Yi He said slowly, looking at Ma Feifei.

Ma Feifei glanced at Yi He suspiciously. This mysterious girl in front of him was really a bit of a mystery. If she was a woman of the night... then why was her family so wealthy? She could take hundreds of billions of Spirit Crystal with ease, and now she even had a relationship with Xun Ling, Third-rank Author in Yong'an Prefecture. She could be said to have Tongtian everywhere.

But then again, if she was so capable, why did she go to a 'Book Fragrance Family' to become a prostitute? At least Ma Feifei knew that if she had wanted to, she could have easily slept with that girl.

Furthermore, Ma Feifei didn't think he had any particular charm or ability to make Yi He help him so selflessly, so there must be something wrong with this.

Either Yi He fell in love with him at first sight, or she had ulterior motives towards him.

However, Ma Feifei felt that the first possibility was more likely. After all, he, Ma Feifei, was all alone in the Book Battle Continent and was a person of unknown identity. How could Yi He possibly have any ulterior motives towards him?

"Sigh! Sometimes being too handsome is a problem," Ma Feifei couldn't help but sigh.

"Shopkeeper (book master), what did you say?" Wang Han and Yi He asked in confusion.

"Oh!" Ma Feifei snapped out of his daze, feigning composure as he said, "It's nothing. I'll have to trouble Miss Yi He with this matter. I will remember it forever and be eternally grateful."

Regardless, we need to rescue Li Chenzhou first. If we wait any longer, we might have to go to the Grave of Book Slaves to collect Li Chenzhou's body.

"It's a small matter, but I've heard that Master Scribe Xun's temperament has changed drastically recently, and he might not be as easy to talk to as before, so I can't guarantee that I can definitely rescue Li Chenzhou." Yi He and gave a heads-up beforehand.

Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei curled her lips. It would be abnormal if Xun Ling's personality hadn't changed drastically. After all, he had been Sweeper Monk at the Mysterious Bookstore for over a month. It was already quite remarkable that a high-ranking figure like Xun Ling hadn't broken down mentally.
