Fans of the manhwa Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign are eagerly awaiting the release of the next chapter. Following the recent turn of events, anticipation is high for how the story will unfold for the protagonist. This article provides all the essential details for Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Chapter 17, including its release date, time, potential spoilers, and where you can officially read it.
What Happened in Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Chapter 16?
Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Chapter 16 takes up with Gokihong and his group of escort serving Pang Doguk, a man of the Hube Pang clan in escaping his pursuers. Gokihong envisions the Pang clan as the people who are muscular and chivalrous and think with their muscles rather than their heads. Pang Doguk seeks them to assist her to leave the mountain saying she would pay them back.

Gokihong concurs and conceals him in a barrel in their cart. On their way, Wi Yeonho (or We Yanho) is woken up in the cart. Gokihong threatens Pang Doguk to remain silent. When Yeonho finds out about Pang putting everyone at risk with no conscience, he critiques him and goes to sleep again. Gokihong believes that they have evaded quietly and almost reach the foot of the mountain.
Then they are stopped by Green Forest bandits who are searching after a young man in red clothes. Gokihong attempts to feign it off saying they are carrying someone weak to the Righteous Hall. However, the situation becomes tense after Yeonho shows red accents underneath his robe stating that he did not see anyone in red. The bandit leader becomes angry and threatens to one by one kill the escorts until someone is compelled to come out and confess.

Gokihong intercepts a bandit who is using his sword to attack a member of his escort. Yeonho next stomps open the barrel releasing Pang Doguk. He says it is stupid to lose lives on behalf of a stranger. But this brings to mind a discovery the bandits will not release them since once the news spreads that they killed a Pang clan member, the entire clan would go after them.
What will Happen in Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Chapter 17?
In Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Chapter 17, Wi Yeonho (or Yan Ho) and his brother Sanho ride on horses. They are going somewhere, yet Yeonho is too tired to care, and he grumbles that the hills are too steep and his back and butt are sore. He sees some people sitting under a tree and proposes they do the same. Sanho examines them and finds out they are dead bodies and have been killed by a method known as the flower-indulging palm, associated with a rapist known as Seo Jukai who attacks women in the mountains.

Sanho explains that the palm was previously named the crimson flower palm but was given a bad name by the crimes committed by Seo Jukai. The bodies suggest Seo Jukai probably attacked a gang to abduct a woman, so a victim might be at risk in the area. Sanho instructs Yeonho to wait and rides away to find out, and Yeonho is left alone with the bodies and the horses. Yeonho panics and shouts that Sanho has taken too long. With the arrival of night, thunder rolls and downpours begin.
Yeonho becomes frightened with the thought that he might become food for the tigers by remaining. He is concerned that something must have happened with Sanho. The image creates a contrast between Yeonho, who became trapped by the storm, frustrated, and helpless. The narrative is then changed to a confrontation in a hut or a branch. Jang-il is maniacally laughing and embracing coins in the Beggar Sect Branch, possibly at a gain. This is connected to larger conspiracies involving sects and masters.

Yeonho gets into a brawl with the Branch Leader Gui Nang Nang and her henchmen, the four shadows. She commands them to assault Yeonho following some misunderstanding that he has abused her people. Yeonho finds it easy to defend him, and this energy comes out and stuns all. He remembers the words of his master: never abandon enemies who can hit back. Gui Nang Nang understands that she has been playing with the wrong person.
