Sure enough, when Jiang Shang was mentioned, Ling Su's originally slightly cleared face became gloomy.

"Is it said that the naked are without clothes? We wear the same robe. The king raises his troops and equips them with weapons."

"Listen to what my mother said, back then he was fishing in the Huai River, and my father invited him three times and they returned together. With his assistance, he defeated Emperor Taiyi Ji and seized the throne."

"Have you ever seen him? What makes him special?"

The wind from the river blew, lifting her hair, dancing in the night sky, reflecting in the flickering fishing lights, like a painting.

"I've seen him once. Actually, I'm very afraid of him. He has a cold aura, like a snake. Now I think it should be a murderous aura. When I traveled the rivers and lakes, someone once told me that the more bloody a person's hands are, the stronger the killing intent on their body, and the heavier the murderous aura, which can never be concealed."

"When I was very young, the guards used to chat and say that Jiang Shang could breathe out fire, and one person could withstand an army. In the final battle between my father and Emperor Taiyi Ji at the Fan Ye Battlefield, we were already on the verge of defeat, but Jiang Shang arrived at a critical moment, breathing out fire and burning down Emperor Taiyi Ji's army. He himself suffered backlash and rested for many years."

In this way, Jiang Shang is also a person with extraordinary abilities. He was probably the one who ordered Jumu not to have the eyes of a killer.

Floating fireflies danced on the river's surface, shining brightly in harmony with the distant fishing lights. Ling Su reached out and caught a firefly that flew to her, revealing a rare smile.

"When I was young, my older brothers used to catch fireflies and put them in silk bags hanging by my bed, and sprinkle some in the curtains, resembling a sky full of stars. Unfortunately, there won't be any more in the future."

The faint glow of the firefly, flickering on her smiling eyes, rolled down as teardrops like dew.

Many years later, I still remember that day, the starlight in the sky, the fishing lights on the river, and the sparkling fluorescence that merged into one, as well as the girl in that fluorescence, smiling with tears.
