Zhang Yuan took a stroll around the White Residence, then turned back. From a distance, he spotted a lovely figure standing outside his door.
"Master."
With no one else around, Bai Fu called softly when she saw Zhang Yuan approaching. Then she hurried forward to take the sword from his back.

Bai Fu followed at his side and nodded gently. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "The Bright Dawn Kingdom is only a tiny speck of a kingdom. If you intend to destroy it, Master, I have a presumptuous request..."

According to the rumors circulating in the residence, Zhang Yuan had ties to the Empress of Great Heng,
