Chapter 43: The Flagship Project Must Succeed

Just you wait, Qinxin! If it doesn't work out this time, there will be a next time.

I will definitely ruin your reputation and make you realize the consequences of overreaching to climb into a wealthy family. Standing nearby and witnessing this scene, Jin Siqi felt an itch of hatred gnawing at her heart.

She made up her mind that she would never let Qinxin off the hook.

"How are you feeling today..."

"I'm not talking about that. I want to ask, if I want to practice internal martial arts, is there any chance?" Old Huang shook his head repeatedly.

Mount Hua is blessed with breathtaking scenery, but if one were to name its most distinctive feature, it would be its sheer peril. The dangerous terrain of Mount Hua is undoubtedly the most treacherous among all the famous mountains in China.

His calm voice was not exactly icy, yet entirely devoid of its usual gentleness and amiability. Mixed with a bone-chilling wind, it instantly made one shiver involuntarily.

That man had a sunny face and dark skin. At first glance, one might have mistaken him for a brute brought in just to make up the numbers. He possessed a rather sturdy build, and wearing this plain blue tunic made him look somewhat awkward and out of place.

Luo Chenzhang's focus was entirely on grooming young master Xuan, hoping that Xuan would later be able to uphold the standing of the second branch of the family.

A pillar of bloody aura condensed three meters in front of the man, shooting straight up a hundred meters into the air. The blood Qi transformed into a crimson dragon, and its two blood-red eyes swept toward the man like heavenly lanterns.

"This prince knows." It was precisely because this face was not disguised at all that he sat here and asked her, waiting for her answer.

"Disguise arts are utterly incapable of deceiving the Emperor's eyes. If this continues, neither of us will likely escape." Indeed, they had already wasted a great deal of time here; the Emperor might have already tracked them down and could even be well on his way.

"Crossbows!" Looking at the bows and arrows in the hands of those people on the shore, Qianwu was startled. With the appearance of this weapon, there was no need to guess the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes. Even if it was not the Third Prince, it was inextricably linked to him.

Feng Che walked over, intending to pull the arrow out. After trying several times, however, the arrow refused to budge. No way, was it embedded that deeply?

Mingzhu respectfully bowed to express her gratitude, standing aside to watch quietly as the others conversed with the Dowager Empress. Before long, the imperial concubines dispersed, leaving behind only Imperial Noble Consort Min and Imperial Consort Xiao.

"How do you plan to deal with this fellow?" Jing Wuyan pointed with his toe at the emaciated man on the ground.

"We're finally home! Lan Qian, I'll take you all out to have some fun in a bit!" Shen Jiaying invited.

Aguli naturally did not dare to neglect the matter and hurriedly led a group of subordinates out of the city. Sure enough, just outside the city gate, he caught sight of the Holy Son's black dragon carriage.

His gaze, which had fallen upon the sickbed, shifted to Sister Yu, but it was merely a fleeting glance before an emotionless voice rang out.

Besides, the defense of the capital had always been controlled by Mu Ze in the past. With just two thousand cavalrymen, he could still capture the capital just as easily.

"How is it?" Feng Yufei walked over to Wusha, without even glancing at Shangguan Honglie, and simply asked in a calm tone.

That's right. Huo Sining had originally worried that stealing electricity on land would attract the attention of the power bureau, but going out to sea was completely different. There was a wealth of natural electrical energy in the ocean that could be harnessed.

"The Duke of E's Mansion?" The Duke of E was no ordinary title of nobility; it was an honor bestowed only upon those who had made monumental contributions to the nation or served as founding heroes.

He had never imagined that things would come to this, nor that the situation would become so terribly complicated. He had originally thought it would be a breeze.

I suppose Lu Qinghou never imagined in his wildest dreams that he would be betrayed by his own younger sister today, at this very moment. In his eyes, this was probably a deeply shameful matter, and he never expected that Lu Mengmeng would reveal this to me.

This transformation occurred in the blink of an eye. The ogre's claws collided with the flying demon's fingers, producing a muffled, thunderous roar.
