Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The following day, Su Bin received the latest update: the officials and soldiers dispatched by the Imperial Court had already arrived at the provincial capital. They were likely preparing to depart for the Flying Cloud Tribe after a brief rest.

The journey from the provincial capital to the Flying Cloud Tribe would take approximately a day. In this first face-off, the outcome of the battle between the Crown Prince and the Third Prince would be decided within the span of a day.

Su Bin maintained his composure, heading to the prefectural school to continue his studies, diligently preparing for the upcoming capitalcontemporary romance

examination next spring. His aspiration was to become an official, preferably a

high-ranking one.

He recognized that holding a prominent position would enable him to execute his plan to oust the Crown Prince effectively. Moreover, it would afford him better means to protect his beloved wife.

A consensus had been reached with Lin Yue the previous night: the Crown Prince was their shared adversary, and their ultimate objective was his removal from power.

The Third Prince enjoyed the backing of the General Manor, with his mentor holding significant influence in the martial world. It wasn’t that the Third Prince lacked strength; furthermore, his reputation surpassed that of the Crown Prince.

The Third Prince and his allies had taken an interest in Su Bin due to the Dragon Phoenix Hall’s formidable strength and Qin Zhenzhen’s remarkable abilities. Su Bin had promised to facilitate a meeting with the “Hall Master” of the Dragon Phoenix Hall.

Perhaps they had not anticipated that Su Bin, initially perceived as a humble scholar, would rise to become the hall master of the Dragon Phoenix Hall in such a short span. Lin Yue harbored no doubts about Su Bin’s role within the Dragon Phoenix Hall.

With these considerations in mind, Su Bin harbored no concerns about the safety of the Flying Cloud Tribe.

Lin Yue said they already had a solution.

Shortly thereafter, Su Bin received a message from the Flying Cloud Tribe.

The Imperial Court’s soldiers had just reached the doorstep of the Flying Cloud

Tribe when an urgent missive from the palace arrived. The Flying Cloud Tribe’s Master, Chen Yufei, had decided to bring a captured man in black to the capital in order to make amends.

In a candid confession, Chen Yufei revealed his true identity and detailed how he had married into the Flying Cloud Tribe, ultimately ascending to the role of its Master.

Chen Yufei had initially been a carefree scion of the General’s Estate, distinguishing himself from his siblings. While his brothers had chosen military service or entered the imperial court to serve the empire, Chen Yufei had preferred a life of leisure, filled with travel and companionship. Money and fame held little appeal for him, but he was an incurable romantic.

Fate intervened when he crossed paths with the eldest daughter of the Flying Cloud Tribe and fell deeply in love. At that time, despite the outward appearance of the tribe as farmers, they were in reality a group of more than a thousand bandits. The Master of the Flying Cloud Tribe also doubled as the leader of these bandits.

The eldest daughter of the Flying Cloud Tribe was none other than the daughter of this bandit leader.

Summoning his courage, Chen Yufei proposed marriage to the bandit leader. However, the bandit leader had a singular condition: he would only agree to the marriage if Chen Yufei was willing to marry into the Flying Cloud Tribe

himself.

Initially hesitant, Chen Yufei found himself unable to forget her. In the end, he made the life-altering decision to marry into the Flying Cloud Tribe.

Upon returning to the General’s Estate to report his decision to his parents, he was met with vehement opposition. His parents not only disapproved but also warned Chen Yufei that such a choice would sever his ties with the Chen family. Undeterred, Chen Yufei remained resolute in his commitment to the person he loved. He was willing to sacrifice his familial bonds to be with the one who held his heart.

The General’s Estate held an intense animosity toward their son for his perceived failure, and they harbored resentment toward the eldest daughter of the Flying Cloud Tribe, believing her to have ensnared their son. However, their deepest enmity was reserved for the bandit leader of the Flying Cloud Tribe, who audaciously allowed the general’s son to marry into their outlawed fold.

In a determined bid to compel Chen Yufei to reconsider his decision and to teach the bandit leader a lesson, the General’s Estate presented a petition to the emperor of that era. The petition outlined the ten transgressions committed by the bandits of the Flying Cloud Tribe. It fervently beseeched permission to deploy troops to besiege the lair of the Flying Cloud Tribe’s bandits..
