Jiang Yi was brought to a luxurious palace within the inner palace by Yun Fei while Yun Xian and He Lao were following behind. Along the way there, many palace maids and eunuchs followed beside them. As Jiang Yi was looking at the cautious and timidly flattering smiles from those palace maids and eunuchs, it caused him to be unsure whether he should be crying or laughing.

Yet, in just a single night, the situation had totally reversed. At this very moment, he was like a retired emperor, walking around the royal palace swaggeringly.
Strength!
At this moment, the thirst he had for strength became even more resolute. This world was just so cruel. If one wished for more, one had to keep on striving for it—constantly getting stronger and stronger!
