Volume 1, Chapter 50: Restoring the Noble Consort's Status
Imperial Physician Li looked at the appalling wound before him, a trace of unbearable pity flashing across his eyes. "Your Highness, please bear with it!"
Seeing that Madam Xu had been dismissed in such a manner and that the Princess of Qi held this attitude, even those who had harbored complaints moments before no longer dared to utter a single word. They obediently took their children and headed home.
Before she could finish her words, her mouth was covered by a large hand. Biran seized her, and with a puff of smoke that burst on the spot, she vanished into thin air.
Hearing this praise while pounding her instep with blow after blow, Lin Qingyue missed her target slightly, her fist nearly striking her other hand.
With that, she turned and walked away, failing to notice Jiaye behind her, who was struggling to open his eyes and trying to call out for her to stop.
Although the Octagonal Compass could track everyone's location, it seemed to have malfunctioned as well, making intercommunication impossible.
Yet upon hearing this, Zhu Siyun showed little reaction, nodding perfunctorily as she removed the pot lid and poured in the rice to stir.
Throwing away all dignity, he made a swift escape right after showing off, simply because he wanted to avoid fighting the Seventh Rank any longer and risking his life. Little did he expect that in the end, he would still stumble at the hands of this exasperating master.
"Benefactor Ning, what is the meaning of this..." Xuan Kong looked at Ning in astonishment, his gaze flickering slightly as it landed on her exquisite face, before instinctively averting his eyes.
Even if you, I, the heavens, the earth, and everyone else know the purpose behind his actions, there is still a vast difference between the parties involved admitting it themselves and mere groundless speculation by outsiders, right?
Because of this single "thank you" from Lin Qingze, Chu Guohong felt as though the wings on his back were beating once more, his eyes fixed unblinkingly upon her.
"Chances are... after the news of Old Master Lin's recovery leaked, he was silenced," Lucy guessed.
"Good!" Thinking of that giant standing nearly two meters tall just moments ago, Wang Kui still felt a lingering fear. Such an unreasonable barbarian struck without measuring his strength; if he were to be squeezed by him again, his neck really would snap.
Above the Hall of Heaven and Earth, a brilliant stream of white light enveloped the structure, forcing the corpse-clans, cultivators, and demonic beasts, whose eyes burned with greed, to halt in their tracks.
"Over there," Marie discovered a recess in the cliffside. The view from there was excellent, directly facing the site where the helicopter had crashed earlier. Even better, the overhanging rocks at the top of the cliff, combined with trailing vines, made the recess difficult to spot from above.
Pan Shuangshuang listened intently to the fatty's voice transmission, paying no heed to whatever Li Cheng was saying.
Yet the promise had already been made aloud; to go back on her word would appear to show a complete lack of regard for others.
Yet something had happened to her, and moreover, after the incident, Lin Qing'er and the others had actually received the news. What did this imply?
Penguin was also helpless. Why hadn't Guan Liyuan thought of such an obvious way to make money, choosing instead to obsess over finding a financial backer?
Wang Lexin looked up at Hao Huan. She was still wearing her mask and had not taken it off, unsure of what to do next. However, seeing Hao Huan's calm demeanor inexplicably made her feel much less nervous and frightened.
The rather cold, keep-her-at-a-distance attitude she displayed toward strange men who came to toast her was simply too similar to how she had been when facing him on Gulangyu.
Occasionally, facing the muscular man's fists, Peifeng clearly could have dodged, but it seemed as though he had run out of strength and was no longer able to evade.
Hearing this, the two men were instantly stunned. Try as they might, they could not fathom how a cultivator at the initial stage of the Light-Initiation Realm dared to speak in such a manner.
