Chapter 58

Despite the bitter cold, the man wore only a single layer of clothing, with a snow-fox fur cloak draped loosely over his shoulders, its collar unfastened.

Hurriedly grabbing Luo Mingxuan's wrist, Bai Youlan took his pulse while rummaging through her pockets for medicine.

"Teacher, leave the rest to me. Please take my mother back to the Chu Dynasty." With another thought from Chen Luosheng, Lady Ji's soul flew out from the Great Yan Refining Furnace, her physical body reconstructed out of thin air, fully and completely resurrected.

Then, Old Man Zhu reached into his upper pocket and pulled out a needle-holder, on which was pinned a row of black needles thicker than the largest sewing needles.

"Heh heh, you are not wrong, but you underestimate the person undergoing the tribulation. The tribulation he faces is far more than just the Eight-Colored Lightning Tribulation." The disheveled figure let out a sinister laugh.

Shangguan Che was not surprised, considering he had already learned about this from Ouyang some time ago.

Although cultivating this black orchid in winter was no easy task, he did not care about that. However, he suddenly recalled Bai Youlan's miraculous and unfathomable mastery of poison; since she had specifically asked for this black orchid, could it be that she intended to use it to concoct poisons?

Upon entering the dining room, Langka and Ning Ning were already seated, waiting for them. Hao'er was running in circles around the table, holding a wooden sword in his hand.

These two dishes were Jingxian's favorites. Although Sister Fang and the others knew how to make them, they were never quite as delicious as the ones cooked by Gao Shiman. Her secret culinary skills could soften the proudest hearts of stone in this world.

"Abernathy, take the genealogy back first and hand it over to the master." Walking forward a few steps, out of the range of the Ministry of Magic's elevators, Rosie paused her steps.

Since entering the ancient ruins meant being teleported away, what were those palaces inside used for? Were they merely decorations?

Ye Feng frowned. What he was searching for was an essential ingredient for cultivating the fourth and final stage of the Myriad-Wood Divine Body—a spiritual plant known as the "Seven-Colored Heavenly Vine."

"Don't worry, Zhou Ze. I won't let him leave this place. No matter who comes today, it's useless," Zhao Pengcheng said.

Just as Rosie was about to confirm, her ears suddenly caught the sound of the giant spider behind her stepping back a few paces. Clueless, she immediately halted her suicide attempt, opened her eyes, and looked over in that direction.

With that thought, Jiang Ling exited WeChat and sent a message to Guo Ziyan. Before she could even wait for a reply, scolding voices drifted up from downstairs—sounds that bore an uncanny resemblance to those from her very first day at the company.

Ji Chazhi patted her cheeks and held out her palms. Lu Tianwei obediently placed the item into her hand. She pressed her lips together and smiled happily, her watery eyes sparkling.

Stardust's direct-run stores certainly wouldn't hold any distinct advantage in the starting phase, but as Stardust products were released and hit the market, over time, consumers' trust in the direct-run stores would only grow higher and higher.

Hearing this, Li Na and Liao Shasasha immediately nodded in agreement, deciding on the spot to have lunch together here before leaving.

Naturally, Lu Shiyi did not notice her abnormal behavior. He stretched lazily and walked into the bathroom.

Qiu Yongshan lost his footing and let out a loud cry. Chen Feng waved his hand and directly shoved a chicken bone into his mouth. With a greasy hand, he wiped it across Qiu Yongshan's face, then took the momentum to fling him away with a bang, crashing him into a wooden post and leaving him dizzy and disoriented.

After stepping out of the ice cave, I pulled the climbing rope three times as previously agreed to signal our safe exit from the tunnel, allowing Fatty and the others to follow our rope out of the ice cavern.

The soil was shoveled back in to fill the pit. Without hesitation, Luo Tian moved the stone bricks over again, first tamping down the earth, then laying them flat and giving them a push with his hand to gradually level the ground. The stone bricks were neatly arranged once more, one after another, tighter and sturdier than before.

"If you are ready, launch an attack on Solomon this afternoon. The objective is to rescue Professor Akezawa." Soshiro always seemed to turn up at times like this, and Shimizu had long since grown used to it.

Long Hao smiled helplessly, understanding that this was still out of concern for Luo Tian, and could only nod solemnly toward Dugu Chunyu.

Amidst all this, Wang Hou inquired about the progress of Leng Bing and Li Hong, and briefed the two of them on the upcoming situation.

As the twin hooks drew close to Xia Mingfeng's body, there was no expected scream; instead, they turned into an illusion and vanished into thin air. Old Brother Hu silently thought to himself that something was wrong. Xia Mingfeng suddenly appeared behind him, striking out with a single palm aimed directly at the heart on his back.

At this point, Zhao Ming noticed his master's body trembling slightly. Although he could not see his master's face, he knew his master was weeping, which showed how heavy a blow this matter had dealt him.

Judging by the aura emanating from them, however, none of these three appeared to be human; they must have been the legendary humanoid yao spirits. This aura was very distinct—different from humans, and also different from those monsters of the Yao Cult Yang Jian had seen before.

The three black dragons exchanged glances and ultimately decided not to muddy these waters. Though they did not know why Nefarian had yet to show his face, a bad premonition was already growing in their hearts.

Stepping into the hall, Alurana looked around with a hint of nostalgia at the earthen dwarves and the massive stone giant in the center.
