Volume 1, Chapter 59: Perhaps It's Morning Sickness
After the memories finished playing completely, the Golden Colossus became overwhelmed, its divine soul suffering severe damage as it collapsed onto the ground.
The room was cleaned meticulously, and even the dust covers had all been stored away in the utility room.
Following Jiang Yu into the villa, a servant stepped forward to greet them, calling out "Second Young Master, Second Young Master's Wife," before taking the gift box and turning into the kitchen.
Currently, outside speculations suggested that the Heavenly Supreme realm powerhouse who descended upon the Grand Dream Palace back then was likely invited by the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty at a massive cost.
"Heh, isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Zhang Zeyu felt as though he were on a roller coaster. The previous second he thought she was from a wealthy family, and the next second her true identity was revealed. That sense of loss was like falling from the clouds straight to the ground.
She did not trust charitable organizations elsewhere quite as much, so she might as well transfer the funds to her own family's foundation. At the very least, she knew that when it came to charity, both Chu Yiqian and Chu Qing'an were extremely earnest.
Aside from that, he still had to fulfill the services promised to his early clients, which meant he would inevitably sustain losses for a period of time, wouldn't he?
She had long since bribed Song Zhizhang and Zhao Minlan. That fifty thousand in cash flow was simply the refund Zhao Minlan received for Ophelia's jewelry, and all kinds of vouchers were available. This also explained why Song Zhizhang and Zhao Minlan had appeared at Ophelia's headquarters that day.
Seeing this comical scene from her master, Luo Chenxiang couldn't help but smile. She never expected that her usually fierce and stern master could also have such a funny side, which completely subverted her perception.
The Heavenly Mystery Feather had long since merged deep into the void, and the rift had already disappeared. From the exterior, it looked just like any other starry sky with nothing abnormal about it.
She was naturally referring to the heavy blow she sustained upon first arriving in this space. Indeed, without that strike, she probably wouldn't have been able to complete this time-travel, and of course, half of this physical body was also thanks to him.
If she didn't quickly replenish some energy right now, how would she have the strength later to investigate the secrets of the dense forest? Not to mention subduing that magic card which created all of this.

Ziyun finally found Huangfu Xiong placed under house arrest in the royal dungeons. After all, the ancestor of the Wu'an family had only come out of seclusion a few days ago, otherwise it was truly hard to say what kind of situation might have transpired.
"Remember what I just said! I'm heading back to the Royal Academy!" Ziyun always came and went in a rush! In order to conserve some energy, he used a teleportation array to return directly to the Royal Academy.
Upon hearing Yi Tianxing's words, the saber-wielding man in black beside him nodded, raising a broad-bladed ghost-head saber high up.
It sounded good, but Zhan Hen immediately spoke out to stop it. He knew Tang Ruyan's condition; her soul was merely lodging in that body. What would happen if she was forced out and couldn't return? He would rather she tough it out like this.
"This Director Wan, right? You probably didn't quite catch my meaning. We don't like making friends, so please stay away from us. Thank you!" Chen Sihan said with a smile.
"Shen Haoxuan, aren't you trying to..." Seeing Shen Haoxuan fix his gaze on the elder in the purple-gold Taoist robe, Liu Qing instantly understood what was happening.
Before leaving, Wan Qiyang mentioned his plan to celebrate that evening, saying he would have someone go buy groceries and meat, and then he stepped out of the courtyard.
Tang Ruyan raised her head, though even she herself did not know that her face was already covered in tears. Looking at Jiang Ruixuan, her heart sank bit by bit. Those memories seemed as though they were about to break through all suppression and rush to the surface, and everything felt so real, as if she had experienced it all personally.
Downstairs, Shu Ting saw Xiaozhu and Qianshu together, pulled Xiaozhu aside, and said, "Xiaozhu, you're amazing! You actually managed to win him over!" Shu Ting gave Xiaozhu a thumbs-up.
An extremely hoarse voice rang out, clearly heard by everyone present, and all their complexions changed drastically. There was not a single person who wasn't terrified.
Catching a glimpse of the sweet smile at the corner of the princess's coat, Nanny Zhao finally felt much more at ease. She felt it necessary to discuss gift-giving issues with His Highness, though she had the heart of a thief, she lacked the courage.
"However..." Although Shen Yatingshi was young, she understood what Lan Ruomei meant by "falling in love with you in a short time." If she did this, would Zhong Zimu look down upon her?

Upon hearing that the person was sent by the heir, the maid thought he had come to exact revenge. She gave a bitter smile and cried out loudly, "Second Master! This humble maid can no longer serve you." Although she had reluctantly followed the Second Master, he was ultimately the one who treated her best in this courtyard. After shouting those words, the maid fainted and was dragged away by Wang Gui's wife.
"...are not inferior to Chen Qiubai's, so... I think you had better stay quietly right here," Mingxin hurriedly advised the Prince of Yan.
Axiu did not dare to be overconfident this time and intended to strike first. With a cry of "Offense taken," he leaped forward, swooping like an eagle's claw toward Chen Guan's throat. The distance between him and Chen Guan was only two zhang, which he covered in an instant. Chen Guan's expression remained unchanged as he shifted his body slightly to dodge Axiu's eagle claw, while simultaneously throwing a punch at Axiu's chest.
Lin Xiao kept her ears perked the entire way, but unfortunately, she didn't hear any useful information. Everyone was huddled together whispering, and whenever she approached, they would shut their mouths as if deliberately guarding against something.
The gunshots from the Green team's commander served as an order to attack. The soldiers raised their rifles one after another and fired blindly into the darkness, the dense gunfire erupting right behind the First Battalion.
After eating, the three of them came to the Fengyun Amusement Park. The weather was fine and clear, presenting a scene of pure joy under the sun.
No matter where "Leng Jiliang" went, he would always bring Zhuyi with him, or rather, wherever Zhuyi was, Leng Jiliang would be there.
She had originally thought that the ordinary palace attendants her father arranged by her side were just ordinary people, but she never expected them to be crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
