Volume 1, Chapter 35: Song Shuning Doubts Her Existence

In truth, Mu Yidai maintained quite good relationships with her brothers; she was neither headstrong and wilful like other princesses, nor did she treat the palace servants harshly on account of her status.

"What?" Sen Luo, whose perception had been tightly locked onto Jiang Lin, suddenly lost the latter's presence. He gasped in shock, immediately pushing his perception to its absolute limit while rapidly channeling his Heavenly Melody Power to envelop himself.

Bai Rong remained calm; such news had no effect on him at all. Ruoxin, however, told him the truth without concealment. Only, to spare him from worry, she withheld the conditions she had exchanged with King Yingning and the fact that she had to use those four divine artifacts to extend her life.

Lin Tianyao said earnestly that regarding this matter, seven parts of the fault lay with him. The reason was simple: the monsters inhabiting this surrounding jungle were of an exceptionally high level, possessed immense magical power, and had not been disturbed by outsiders for years.

"Young Master, Young Master, are you alright?" The old steward, leading a group of servants, ran panting up to Guan Jingtian. Seeing his slightly torn clothes and disheveled appearance, the steward turned pale with fright, checking him up and down with both hands while asking anxiously.

"Congratulations to the Asura King for stepping into the Return Realm," the Spirit King said with a smile the moment the Asura King awoke.

It seemed to be another possibility, but why would he dream or imagine such a scene at this moment?

Fu Xubo was vague in his speech. Lu Qiuchi frowned, thinking to himself that the Asura Palace’s urgent recall for him to report his duties likely signaled a new war. Perhaps Fu Xubo’s release this time was for this very reason?

Xin Hongxue was still pondering this question when Tang Liquan suddenly shouted as if waking from a trance. She turned to look at him, only to see him looking back in this direction, though not at her. Feng Tongyi turned around, laughed, and suddenly ran toward the bamboo grove outside. Seeing this, Zhu Zhu had no choice but to follow.

"Jiang Yue, what madness has possessed you?" Mother Jin said, looking at Yan Shanshan as she emerged from the restroom, before decisively hanging up the phone.

All of this was secondary. The real reason—what is the World of Cultivation? It is the foundation of the Immortal Realm and the Ghost Realm. If a son is beaten, can the father refrain from stepping in?

Xu Qiangwei had a younger brother, and her existence was meant to serve him; she was to be married off as a wife to a CEO more than thirty years her senior.

However, do not assume Young Master Tang stayed up so late to handle work; the computer screen was displaying a brutal hand-to-hand combat sequence, and the clattering of the keyboard just now was merely him playing a game.

Although Old Madam Dong had been retired for many years and could not compete with Old Madam Ma in terms of power, her insight and ability to judge people remained sharp.

Ximen Jinlian had said nothing at the time, but for some reason, having arrived in Jieyang today, she suddenly felt the urge to bring up the past.

For the final three-quarters of the journey, Lian Cheng carried her on his back. He did not feel tired; instead, the road felt shorter than usual, and they arrived in no time.

In the brief moment they crossed paths, Old Zheng swung his short sword. The indestructible blade struck the wild boar’s neck. As expected of a treasure that could cut through iron like mud, it sliced a deep gash into the boar’s thick hide, and blood sprayed out like a pillar.

"Qiangwei, do you know that rumors about you and Mr. Lian are already circulating in the circle?" Amy leaned in and whispered.

Even the Land of Chaos had received the news; after all, though it lay far from the center of the universe, it had still planted a few spies among living beings.

Hao Tiancheng gave Le Fan two gifts. One was a bearer bond issued by his own company, which could be exchanged for cash upon presentation, and the other gift displayed even more of Hao Tiancheng’s seasoned sophistication in bribery.

Yang Podi had also given these two immortal herbs after careful consideration. At the very least, none of his own relatives or friends were currently in need of them, while Qian Renxue and Hu Liena were the two youths most highly valued by the Spirit Empire.

Yet, after months of such torture and humiliation, having finally returned, even the sight of the steward felt incredibly moving.

What the world did not know was that because of this specific conversation between Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu, the entire situation of the Douluo Continent would be turned upside down.

Yu Zhao gazed at the Tree of Longevity, thinking of the three questions answered before arriving on the island and the sights seen in her dreams. She thought she probably understood the answer the Elder of Longevity desired.

"I’m taking Ginny, you two follow closely," Mrs. Weasley said to Harry and Ronya, then grabbed Ginny's hand and walked forward, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, Zeshan Haruno was right beside it, occasionally scratching the salmon ball's chin with her finger, which finally calmed it down.

"Take care of yourself," Pan Zhen'an said, then turned and walked out of the main hall of the Fengluan Palace, step by step.

Originally, both the Left Guard Battalion and the Right Guard Battalion were the Emperor’s soldiers, yet no one expected them to be entirely co-opted by Chu Shiyan, leading to the necessity of mobilizing troops from the West Mountain Barracks during the recent purge of the court.

The advisor Fu Xuehan sought was none other than Feng Zhikuan’s third brother, Feng Zhiquan. This time, the Feng family had exhausted their wealth and connections for Fu Xuehan’s promotion.

Although that was not her favorite habit, it was at least acceptable. Besides, her feelings for Haruno had never changed; it was only due to various other reasons that they had broken up.
