Chapter 1

"Feng Qingyi! Time for dinner!"

The loud knocking on the door and shouting from outside woke Feng Qingyi from her sleep.

Feng Qingyi reluctantly crawled out of bed with a mess of bedhead and opened the door.

"Do you have a death wish?!"

Feng Qingci disdainfully looked at his dragon-phoenix twin sister.

"It's already 8:30, and you're still not up for breakfast. Let you starve to death then!"

Feng Qingyi glanced at him.

"Where's my phone? Give me back my phone!"

When it came to the phone, Feng Qingci felt a little guilty.

Yesterday, he was playing games on his sister's phone and accidentally dropped it into his father's giant water cup.

Although he fished it out quickly, it was no longer responsive.

"Listen to me justify... no, listen to me explain. Your phone's quality was too poor. I just played two rounds of games on it, and it crashed!"

"Tell me honestly what happened?"

She spent 7,800 yuan on a new phone, and it hadn't even been a week since she got it. How could it possibly crash? Did he think she was a fool?

Feng Qingci weakly took out Feng Qingyi's new phone.

"Sis, it wasn't on purpose. It accidentally fell into the water cup, and then this happened!"

Feng Qingyi's gaze rested on Feng Qingci's face.

"Such a big phone, tell me, do we have a cup big enough at home for it to fall into?"

Feng Qingci: "Yes, Dad's giant teacup!"

Fair enough! She was too hasty. Her father's giant teacup could fit not just one phone but two more.

"Since it has come to this, you have half an hour to buy an identical one and bring it back."

After kicking Feng Qingci out the door, Feng Qingyi slowly savored the fried rice.

She had to admit, her brother might be unreliable, but the fried rice was not bad.

Half an hour later, Feng Qingci returned with a plastic bag.

Hearing the door open, Feng Qingyi quickly went to the living room.

"Hand it over, you!"

Feng Qingci tossed a plastic bag to Feng Qingyi.

Feng Qingyi opened it and saw a battered phone like none she had ever seen before.

The screen was so shattered that the original appearance was unrecognizable, and the edges were discolored. Even a junk dealer wouldn't want it!

"Feng Qingci, do you not want to live anymore? My brand new 7,800 yuan phone, and now you're trying to fool me with this piece of junk!"

Wait, this was her personal WeChat, she hadn't added any strangers.

So who was this blank profile with no display name?

Feng Qingyi decided to inquire.

[Qingyi: Who are you?]

After chatting with her roommates for a while without a reply, Feng Qingyi decided to delete this person.

Bizarrely, no matter how many times she tried, she couldn't remove them.

She didn't know where her brother got this weird phone from.

Feng Qingyi gave up and left them be.

In the border camp of the Tianqi Empire.

The young general clad in armor sat on a chair.

In his hand was a newly acquired spoil of war - a small black box.

The man had a jade-like face, with distinct and profound facial features. His ink-black eyes were aloof and cold.

His thin lips were pursed, and his brow furrowed slightly as his slender fingers tapped lightly on the black box.

At that moment, the black box vibrated slightly.

The man looked at the box with some surprise as it lit up.

Two lines of text appeared on the small box.

"Qingyi" recalled a message.

Who are you?

Was this the enemy's new method of gathering intelligence?

"General, Na Muqi requests an audience!" A gruff voice called from outside the tent.

"Enter."

Na Muqi entered the tent and bowed to the man.

"General, Vice General Lin has achieved a great victory over the enemy at Changxu Pass. He is now encamped outside the pass, awaiting your orders."

The man was expressionless. "Mm, send word for them to rest and recuperate for three days."

"Yes, I will notify them immediately." Na Muqi responded.

"Na Mu, you are well-traveled and knowledgeable. Have you ever seen anything like this before?" The man handed the black small box to Na Muqi.

Na Muqi took the small box and examined it from different angles, but could not make out what it was.

"Reporting to the General, I have never seen this before. I do not know what this object is."

"Hmm, you may leave now."

This is very likely a device used by Northern Qi for sending messages. It seems we need to investigate this thoroughly.
