Chapter 29
Chu Fan’s expression darkened; his son’s behavior was truly disgraceful. Even he found it hard to stomach.
"What do you mean, 'how'?" Yun Chi’s gaze was entirely captivated by Li Jingyi’s slender, fair fingers. He pressed her orchid-like hand to his lips, his voice becoming muffled as he spoke.
Having said this, the guard retreated into Qingqu City and ordered the gates to be shut tight. Luo Ziyang frowned, and just as he turned to leave, he heard his lieutenant speak.
Rong Zheng turned and exited the side chamber, leaping away and vanishing into the side hall. A short while later, he appeared on the roof of Prince Xuan’s mansion, watching everything that transpired below.
Driven by Li Zhi’s flattery, Chibu Dashan had been forced onto the high platform. It was difficult to climb down now; after all, every word and action of his was being filmed.
"Of course you aren't my wife, because I am yours," Grace said, looking at Yuni with eyes full of tenderness and affection.
The execution of a sword formation is extremely draining. It requires the participants to move in perfect unison, perform the same sword techniques, and even share the same intent. It cannot be completed in a short time and requires a certain period of preparation.
Relieved to have shaken off Jade Concubine, Imperial Physician Liu followed the Youdan Palace guards toward Nan Gongjin’s Leisure Abode with a light heart. Upon arriving, the guard asked him to wait outside while he went in.
Seeing that Jun Wuji was not in the least bit anxious, just quietly sipping his tea, the crowd could not help but feel a twinge of disappointment.
In truth, Feng Tian herself could not fathom why she harbored such deep hatred for Yin Shaoxuan. Perhaps it was because the original owner of this body had been tortured to death by him, or perhaps there were other reasons. Regardless, she was clear on one thing: Yin Shaoxuan had to die.
No matter how many things are on my mind, I only need to close my eyes and deliberately push every thought away. My mind becomes blank in an instant, and sleepiness descends out of thin air, filling my entire brain until I drift off.
Yet, finding Yumeng should be simple—just follow the direction given by the unicorn to the Tianhe Forest. Why drag Xu Yang and Zhu Yang into this?
The Jade Emperor was startled, hastily withdrawing his hand and pretending he knew nothing, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Gu Heng chatted with the Duke of Ying for a long time before returning to the courtyard where Duan Yurun was staying to personally escort her home.
Fang Mian froze, looking at her right hand which was pointing at Jade’s forehead, and quickly lowered it. Although her father had never told her, she knew that pointing at others with one's finger was impolite.
Sheli believed Li Chengye was merely an exception. Since Li Chengye had two months to prepare, he decided to launch a surprise attack, using a thousand catties of grain as bait to lure Kun Jian into battle.
Before the current mystery could be unraveled, a report came in that an entire military camp had been wiped out. Xidaluo rushed off without a moment's rest to investigate.
No one is willing to sacrifice themselves to promote others, so she could understand. Understanding was one thing, but she still felt these people were too snobbish. If she truly collaborated with them and something went wrong, they would surely cast her aside as a scapegoat.
"You think a single meal is enough to dismiss us? It’s not that cheap," Gu Shanshan shouted at Gu Nianbin with a grin.
You are more beautiful than any vibrant, frivolous butterfly; even the most graceful dragonfly’s dance is not a ten-thousandth as lovely as yours.
On the day of the upheaval, every entity with any power on Earth clearly sensed the terrifying aura of that ominous disaster.
"Suha, what's wrong?" Angela was startled by the sudden turn of events. She gripped Suha’s arm and asked, trembling with fear.
Lu Yu thought he had seen wrong and rubbed his eyes vigorously, only to see that a ring had indeed appeared in the corner of the Star Worm nest.
Xuanyuan Huaqing gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, "I saw through your plot long ago! Unfortunately, I cannot kill you! I cannot avenge him."
Xuan Tianle also wanted to stop his tears, but the sorrow in his heart flowed out endlessly; how could such tears be held back?
However, Lu Chuan, who had launched the attack, could feel that his strike had not achieved much. Yet, he sensed the clear spatial fluctuations with absolute certainty.
After all, the Divine Monk Yikong was his master’s senior brother, making him his own uncle-master. With this special sentiment, Qin Tianci slowly moved toward the Bodhidharma Cave.
Ten miles behind were the envoy minister and two men in black. All three were skilled in martial arts; Qin Huian was no match for them even one-on-one, let alone three. To escape, he could only rely on his wits.
Despite such heavy casualties, the vast majority of people wanted to join these four forbidden organizations every day. The reason was simple: "Birds die for food, and men die for wealth."
Now, he felt he had been reborn, fully sublimated to another level. This change manifested not only in his body but also in his state of mind.
"Is that so? That’s wonderful." Old Master Wu’s heart finally settled. He had been staring at that jade pendant for days until his eyes grew weary; getting this news meant he no longer had to worry day and night.
"We came here looking for the British. They are our enemies. If you harbor them, you will become our enemies as well," Wu Nan stated his purpose bluntly.
