"Recently, I heard that the court plans to raise an army to attack the Demon Domain."
"I know about this. They've been saying it for years, but there's still no sign of action."
"No, no, no, they say they'll fight every year, every day they say this, and yet, haven't seen a trace of it."
"Surely, they're just fooling the Demon Domain again."
Amidst the noisy tavern, a person dressed like a scholar heard these words, and for a moment, his eyes transformed into vertical pupils, before quickly returning to normal.
'How many times have I heard this rumor this month? Every day they talk about attacking the Demon Domain, but never once have they actually done anything.'
His real name is Mao Shijiu, a cat demon, tasked with blending into the Da Xuan Dynasty as a spy, replacing a scholar, and his daily job is to play the role of this scholar and gather all kinds of intelligence.
