Volume One, Chapter 50: The So-Called Treasures

He could not compare to Sheng Anzhi. Sheng Anzhi had lost both his parents, but he had a good elder sister and could live with dignity.

Du Wan’s turmoil was so intense that even the matriarch could no longer bear it. She sent several waves of servants to inquire, only to learn that Du Wan would wait for Fu Hengyu to return before taking action.

The moment I stepped into the valley, a bone-chilling coldness swept over me, causing me to shiver involuntarily.

The remnants of the Soul-Extinguishing Talisman burned in my mouth like bullets, flying straight toward the old woman’s face.

Just as the other elders moved to stop An Zeya, they saw the elders of the An family arriving with formidable momentum.

Compared to Kui Creek Town, which we had visited before, this place could only be described as utterly lifeless.

He usually hunches over, leaning on an ordinary-looking cane, appearing close to death. But now, he resembled an enraged lion, radiating a powerful aura from head to toe.

It wasn’t long before Chen Mingguang returned home. Seeing a room full of petri dishes and understanding the situation, he naturally offered his full support to Chen Mingyuan.

For example, Su Mu’s current cultivation level is at the peak of the Celestial Immortal stage. It would be extremely difficult for anyone to kill him or even destroy his consciousness.

Interstellar people highly value natural materials, especially now that plants have mutated. Simple, natural solid wood furniture is more popular than ever.

“Fine! You’re ruthless!” The other party had made their offer, and Master Xingluo no longer wished to bargain. At this moment, he only wanted to get rid of these three troublemakers and return to his cave dwelling to meditate immediately. That way, even if others had schemes, they wouldn’t disturb him anymore.

If such behavior on our part were to spread in the future, not only would my reputation suffer, but Wei Yan’s would be ruined as well. Wei Yan was fully aware of this.

“Lord Fang, long time no see. May I ask what brings you to me?” Niu Lu asked in surprise.

Jinfeng did not dare to experiment recklessly with the skill’s effects yet. He decided to wait until the World Championships to use it.

As for the speculation that Li Yichen had encountered this forbidden formation before, Lin Zhennan could only sneer at the notion.

When the time came, with Lü Bu’s subordinates, the meager forces currently available simply could not hold against the enemy outside the city.

Huang Xuan was also busy, continuously commentating on the match. The Chinese team’s defense was so tense it felt as if the opponents would break through their gates at any moment.

“Where is the princess? I ask you, where has Princess Jian’an gone? How long has it been since you last saw her? If she is ill, why haven’t you summoned the imperial physician?” The emperor questioned Zhou Che three times, his face filled with suspicion.

Others might light three fires upon taking office, but Li Zexuan, as a newly appointed official, handed out candies to everyone. Yet his “candies” were far from sweet; if anyone in the county office underperformed, he would mercilessly take back twice as much.

With Argo’s help, the two discovered the exchange of resources between the Demon Guild and the Smiling Coffin, leaving the scene recorded in a memory crystal—a device akin to a camera.

Through one of the scouts, they unexpectedly found other poisonous insects hiding beneath the same patch of grass.

Now that matters had come to this, how could Xiao Han so easily let the second-rank demon spider go? This was a piece of meat practically in his mouth, and letting it slip away was unthinkable.

Only then did Xiao Han realize, but when he thought of the name of this lingering soul—Holy Void—he couldn’t help but laugh.

“You mean this new type of poison is lethal? If an addict inhales it, death could ensue?” Nangong stared at me, asking.

“Someone really helped it. The drawings are very detailed. This fellow fled in quite a hurry,” Shi Yi handed over the blueprint.

It might have been unspoken, but now that it was mentioned, Fei’er’s face flushed even deeper. She coquettishly glared at him again, then walked toward the door with him.

Two arrows hit their marks, shooting down two mounted patrol soldiers, but agonized cries echoed as well.

All three collapsed simultaneously. Knowing it was too good to be true, they helplessly looked at Fei’er, who was basking in her triumph.

The backyard faced the distant mountains, surrounded by wide open space. It was not adjacent to any neighbors, creating a quiet solitude.

If he had misjudged, she would have objected. If things escalated and she was proven right, not only would his reputation be ruined, but the prestige of Wanchun Hall would be affected as well.

Originally, when Lin Weishi once again returned to the top of the leaderboard in a crushing display, Helen herself was indeed very unwilling.

This was merely the lightning within the thunder sphere. Following it came a long axe wreathed in black mist, slicing through the air after Novyiliva, who was still mid-flight. The axe cut through the wind with a roar.

Taking advantage of the moment when King Zhao gave his orders, Wei Qianyou carefully recalled the events of that night and the actions of Mu and Lin just now.

After speaking, Wei Qianyou chose a style he could accept, spending considerable time on it. Lin Zhaoyuan was indeed flamboyant, making several garments all with such ostentation.

Besides, weren’t you always advising me not to act rashly? How many times have you asked me to go listen for intelligence now?

Murong Ruyin was utterly shocked. She knew Ye Ling had a grudge against the War Emperor, but never imagined Ye Ling was the cause of the War Emperor’s current state.

“My humble sect follows ancestral teachings and dares not defy them. Yet the world is full of arrogant and indulgent people who lack restraint, recklessly trading miraculous feats for wealth and fame to satisfy vanity and desire. What I do is to balance yin and yang, harmonize the cosmos, and restore a peaceful world to mankind,” Daoist Youyun explained.

On the bed, Su Xuan Shang had shed his clothes, wearing only white shorts. He lay face down, burying his cheek fully in his arms, only his flushed ears exposed to the air.

“You mean the dusk she spoke of is the Twilight of the Gods. But after all, that is just a legend, said never to have appeared until now. What does that have to do with Gu Yun Zhe?” Wu Fan was somewhat surprised.

“Haha, Yuan Tianzhong. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen him. Today, I shall pay him a visit. Brother Han, let me chop off Yuan Tianzhong’s head,” Wu Qu slapped his thigh confidently, as if it were a sure thing.

Not long after, Onyxia carried Richafina Primatis back to the Winter Kingdom of Grez. Yoxisa’s current location was unknown at a mining site, while Primatis was organizing archaeological findings from Grez during the Summer Kingdom expedition. After tidying her room, Fina also went back to sleep.

Looking up at Qingfeng Tower, long crimson silk ribbons hung from the upper floors all the way to the ground. Just above the entrance, a large festive red flower drew the eye. Everywhere were lanterns and decorations, and the joyful sound of suona horns rose and fell. It seemed the throwing of the embroidered ball was imminent.

Already enraged, Pompey sat astride his floating magic wand and lunged at Ares and the others, only to hit an invisible wall and be struck down by a bolt of lightning, crashing to the ground.
