?Chapter 142: Chapter 138 Cutting Off One’s Own Lifeline Chapter 142: Chapter 138 Cutting Off One’s Own Lifeline Unbeknownst to them, the days crept closer to the Small Year festival.
Two days before the Small Year, Ruo Shui had to deliver books to the bookstore and incidentally went to pick up the children from the Martial Arts Academy and the Academy to bring them home.
Starting from tomorrow, the Academy would begin its holiday, which would last until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Ruo Xuan, being small, couldn’t see anything even if she stood up, but she could hear very well! So, she quickly learned from the varying comments of the crowd what was going on.
Ruo Xuan also smelled a faint scent of blood in the air, “It must be that someone from the General Residence of Loyalty and Bravery is being executed today.”
