Chapter 95: Conspiracy Suppression

...

Many days passed, and the sky gradually regained some luster, a murky brilliance, but still better than being without daylight.

The Imperial Court was somewhat deserted. Frost had gone to the great kitchen to fetch some fresh ingredients and discovered that most people had left that morning, heading to the Nan Mansion to celebrate Elder Nan's birthday.

Elder Nan was an extremely influential Dragon Shepherd who had served as the dean of the Dragon Taming Academy and had supported both the Li Family and the Nan Family, truly one of the grand elders of the Ancestral Dragon City-State.

Even though the Li Family now held power and Elder Nan had become old and senile, his dragons dispersed, his birthday was still celebrated with grandeur, with the Li Family's members, big and small, all making an appearance.

Li Yunzi did not attend. Early on, Elder Nan had spoken words of outright severance of ties; there was no need for Li Yunzi to feign pleasantries and go there.
