Chapter 47
"Senior has guessed it? Junior indeed has this intention. After all, this matter is of great consequence, and there are still some things Junior wishes to have Senior confirm. Was that white-robed person truly the Flame Emperor? It is widely rumored in the outside world that this person ascended to the upper realm millennia ago; how can such a person still exist in this world?" Tianchen made no attempt to conceal his intentions, voicing his inner doubts directly.
Merely visiting a temple, Xu Ruyi had no intention of making a grand fuss. Leaving Fang Tianyou behind to hold down the fort, Xu Ruyi departed with Nangong Caiyun.
Lu Chen headed to the Huainan urban area to buy some hens and ingredients, then hurriedly returned to the boat. During this time, he received intelligence from the Yellow Earth Legion stating that the Twelve Officials had been found and were being sent to a residence recently purchased in Jinling City, awaiting his arrival.
He looked toward the speaking man, who was dressed in luxury brands, styled in modern fashion, and wore an arrogant expression—clearly a wealthy individual.
Ye Tianhao gave Xiao Yun no room to breathe, pressing forward to cut him down. Since the other party intended to kill him, it was now a fight to the death. This fellow had been jumping up and down before Ye Tianhao all this time, and today, Ye Tianhao was determined to kill him.
"What the Celestial Master says is true! But where are we drifting to now?" the advisor asked with concern. Although the others did not speak, they all looked at Qingfeng, waiting for him to make a decision.
The patriarch of the Gui clan suddenly felt full of vigor, and even the previously empty wooden shelves were now filled with dazzling, glittering gold, silver, and treasures.
Seeing the palm shadows bearing down, a strange starlight flickered before Yuanzhen like a flat mirror. Those palm shadows instantly entered it and vanished without a trace.
Seeing that the Fiery Cloud Holy Mother was insistent on withdrawing from the plan to encircle and kill Fang Xiaoxhan, Ye Rui gritted his teeth fiercely, and finally waved his hand, commanding the Hidden Dragon Divine Guards to open a passage and let her leave.
Guo Xian was thrilled to see Tianchen, but upon seeing Tianchen's motionless state, he assumed Tianchen had perished and would be unable to repay the great debt of saving his life that day, filling him with deep guilt. However, the dead could not be revived, and Guo Xian's only remaining course of action was to give his benefactor a proper final send-off.
Holding the script, Xu Xin'an walked to the front of the camera, lowered her gaze to ponder for a moment, and when she raised her face again, her expression had already turned profound.
Ji Ziyan first nodded, then shook his head. If things were only that simple! The most crucial part was that the way he and Xia Nuannuan had met was somewhat unusual. If their parents found out they met through a one-night stand at a bar, they would surely harbor prejudices against Nuannuan's character.
The Gongsun family's ancestors were reportedly half-demons, with a human mother and a Purple-Winged Demonic Lion father.
Even after mixing in upper-class society for so many years, she had never encountered a character as difficult to deal with as Xu Xin'an.
Driven by his spiritual power, the red and black colors on the surface of the banner began to glow. Instead of emitting black wind, the banner released waves of chilling baleful Qi that grew increasingly dense with the rhythm of its swaying.
Yun Qingyue wore the expression of a miser, but in Yuqingzi's eyes, this junior sister of his truly had it hard—on one hand, she had to guard against her stepsister, and on the other, she had to worry about money.
"Mo'mo..." Mulin Zhi was in agonizing pain. He wanted Zhou Mo's forgiveness, but seeing the injury on Zhou Mo's forehead... and the coldness in her eyes, he could say nothing at all.
The giant snake lunged forward frantically, its head plunging like lightning straight toward the spot where Lin Chen had just been standing.
Long Mu glanced casually, saw that the container was filled to the brim with gold coins, and with a gentle nod, put it away.
"It seems I've sprained my heel!" Xu Xin'an frowned, saying pitifully.
He did not use the word "please" here. If he had used "please," he knew Elder Liuqing would certainly be willing to go over, but using it would undoubtedly diminish the status of the Criminal Affairs Elder. Naturally, he would not do such a thing.
"To rob or to kill?" Li Yun's voice trembled more and more noticeably, the sound of his teeth chattering particularly clear in the silent night.
"Boom!" Another loud explosion rang out, and instantly a large spray of blood erupted from that spot. The centermost head of the Nine-Headed Demonic Serpent burst open entirely, chunks of flesh and blood flying outwards in all directions.
Although she established this cooperative with the intention of helping everyone, there was nothing she could do if others chose not to believe her.
After the time it takes to burn half a stick of incense, the injury on Zheng Fan's chest healed, and he pushed off the ancient stone wall with both hands, causing his figure to drift downward.
Fine, I have made no progress. In the eyes of smart people like you and Ying Zheng, I will always be a stupid donkey. Fine, fine, say whatever you like, I won't take the bait.
"Mother, I will talk to you slowly about sister's matters in the future." Luohua decided to open his heart and fully indulge in every warmth brought to him by Qiu Shuangxin.
Mo Xiao knew that Muzhen was afraid, but any comforting words at this moment would be in vain. All he could do was stay by Muzhen's side every step of the way.
She remembered that the first time she used this chili mortar, Muzhen had always felt its design was unreasonable. Because the bowl used for holding chilies and such had a gap of about three centimeters on the side, and the pestle stone felt a bit too short, making it awkward and uncomfortable to use no matter how she tried.
"Didn't they say the Haojian Sect has a supreme weapon of mass destruction? Perhaps I can borrow the power of that wicked sword of legend." Although Zheng Fan had slipped away earlier, deep down he feared nothing more than a world at peace.
"No, I... I still have many good things, I'll give them all to you, I beg you, don't kill me." Lu Jianchen directly offered his storage ring and unhesitatingly erased the spiritual imprint upon it.
The very first match of the quarter-finals was a peak showdown, undoubtedly dimming the brilliance of many subsequent matches. However, the outcomes of several ensuing matches proved quite unexpected.
There was a commotion at the entrance, and distance gazes turned toward it. Su Yueoran looked over and saw Shao Hanzhi, the smile on her face instantly freezing.
"Are you sure?" Duwei was stunned for a moment, then frowned, looking at Mike in puzzlement.
Ye Yatian climbed up from the ground, cast his gaze around, and found that he had been blasted into a mountain valley.
In fact, the moment the nurse spoke, she already knew the outcome. The nurse wouldn't say something like that for no reason, and Shao Hanzhi having the doctor confirm it was simply because he desired certainty too much; now it was undoubtedly confirmed.
Hearing this, Qiao Wan'er closed her five fingers into a salute, shouting, "Understood!"
