Volume 1, Chapter 22: Impromptu Performances Everywhere

Black Blind regretfully pulled the quilt back up, not forgetting to help Xie Yian recall the events of that night.

Feeling the pressure around her waist, Yun Shao twisted her body. Seeing Qi Yan was completely oblivious, she gave his arm a fierce pinch. Qi Yan winced in pain and looked at her; Yun Shao patted his arm to signal him to let go.

Lian Yuan rushed over upon hearing the news. He was devastated at the sight of his son’s corpse, yet he could not fathom why Du Ru, who had always been loyal, would suddenly betray him.

Several vans pulled up outside the gate, and over twenty young people dressed in bizarre outfits with dyed, multicolored hair climbed out.

The wedding was grand and filled with distinguished guests, but unfortunately, the groom, Jin Zhongting, did not attend. Half a year ago, Jin Zhongting had been involved in an accident while on a yacht trip; the yacht exploded, and after being rescued, he became a vegetable, lying in bed for six months without waking.

The Cheng family was a top-tier aristocratic clan in Yanjing. Back then, it was only after his mother knelt and kowtowed to the Cheng family that they agreed to intervene and ensure his safe departure from Yanjing. Since then, Chu Yun had never contacted his mother again.

The four disciples of the Longevity Sect saw this and wanted to come to the rescue, but when Ye Tian turned and looked at them, they were so terrified that their souls took flight, and they scattered in all directions like beasts.

Black Blind felt a lump in his throat. It would have been better not to ask; one humiliation was enough, let alone two.

The other six people in the vehicle glanced at the sleeping Chu Yun with faint, mocking smiles.

The other six figures suddenly flickered, merging back into the original red-clad man. Seven rainbow-colored light shields trembled as they carried the talisman-sealed consciousness.

One would certainly strive for it; at such a time, seeking to become stronger is indeed true. Simultaneously, while navigating all the changes that are bound to occur, one is truly doing their utmost to accomplish these things.

Everything seemed to be under Huangfu Xian’s control. He used a ruse to lure Prince Yingning into a trap and seized control of the Emperor’s actions. He was only one step away from achieving his plan, but that outcome would mean sacrificing them all.

Walking through the alley of the embroidery tower, Ruoxin suddenly heard the sound of porcelain clashing from a fork in the lane.

"I know," Yan Xiaoxiao interrupted him coldly. He did not need to emphasize it; she would not forget her identity, nor would she forget that humiliation.

As the words fell, three soldiers scouting the roadblock were struck down by a succession of arrows. Karl felt a chill in his heart and looked toward the forest, only to find no trace of the enemy.

For a guy like Metal Knight, his ambition was immense. Without the dominance of absolute, terrifying power, he likely would not submit easily. Regarding this, Lin Tianyao exercised strict control over him, leaving no chance for retaliation.

If this were anyone else, such behavior would be dismissed as arbitrary dictatorship, but because the subject was Jin Guangyan, it was viewed as a model of decisive efficiency.

"Let’s keep going like this; my intuition is exhausted. This scorpion won't be injured, but I will die." Although Lin Tianyao was in a hurry, he remained calm and thought of countermeasures.

The Emperor he spoke of was Yu Zichen. After the announcement released by Huashuo yesterday, he had donned the yellow robe. Although Qingrang had not been able to see him, she had already heard from many people that he was indeed the Emperor.

The refined iron longsword snapped in half, and the long spear bent into an arch; clearly, both were no longer usable.

For items with "Infinite Game" attributes, holders generally did not display the physical objects, but instead used the Infinite Game light screen to show the item’s attributes and images.

Furthermore, he discovered that this stone carving was not an independent existence but rather part of a complete set; the one he obtained was merely one piece.

Observing the prosperity of the streets, Li Weijian couldn't help but ponder to himself. It stood to reason that since the Great Shun had implemented the policy of parallel river and sea transport for a century, there should be a shift in focus by now. Sea transport was naturally far superior to the canal, yet he did not know why both were still being utilized.

"This confirms the theory I proposed—that there is a genuine way to kill him, doesn't it?" Harry also began to laugh.

The harbor was in the quiet of dusk. Most of the stevedores and sailors had left to seek pleasure in the city or return home. The sound of shouting was exceptionally clear, yet just as the man called out, a roaring sound erupted from the slope above them.

He saw that Xue Ningmei, who was usually inseparable from him and always stayed half a step behind, was standing a zhang away, watching him with a faint, enigmatic smile.

The previous time the Chief Steward of Prince Zhongshun came knocking, it was already known that Baoyu was undisciplined. Now that the old matter was brought up again, the Rongguo Mansion had no way to refute it.

Li Weijian knew perfectly well that the Old Matriarch was extremely fond of the head maid, Yuanyang, and was looking for an opportunity to leave him alone with her.

Coincidentally, the target of this mission was someone Yang Ying actually recognized—it was the giant-like invading creature, the [Troll], that he had encountered during his first experience with an otherworldly invasion in high school.

Taking a step back, even if they finally managed to repel the cultivators' invasion, would their remaining forces be able to withstand a beast uprising?

Mu Qinghan’s internal energy was exhausted, and things finally quieted down inside Qin Yan’s body. He regained his own senses and instinctively circulated his internal energy to repair the acupoints damaged by the clash of the two forces.

Yang Yan, standing to the side, was completely stunned, her mind flooded with questions. Since when did Qi Yun know these people?

Although the Lianqi Sect could shelter the Zhao family, that was predicated on the Zhao family being docile and obedient. If they took the initiative to stir up trouble everywhere, the Lianqi Sect would abandon this lackey at the very first opportunity.

Seeing that Pengpeng had packed his things, Ye Mingxuan grabbed a bamboo basket, put it on Chen Chichi’s back, and was the first to head out the door.

The eighteen wine jars under the corridor were unsealed. Instantly, a fragrance that seemed like powder but was clearer than powder, and like flowers but richer than flowers, wafted out. The wine was sweet and mellow, with a hint of spice that left a warmth in the stomach after swallowing.

Bibi Dong recovered once more, but Ye Yu’s next attack was imminent. At such close range, as soon as Bibi Dong recovered, he launched a teleportation. Then, Bibi Dong would surely die, for her soul power was insufficient to sustain the use of the Undying Body once more.
