Volume 1, Chapter 40: Riding a Donkey and Drinking Tea, A Mighty Expert of the Medical Path!
The four of them walked to a tea stall and sat down respectively, tasting the fragrant tea.
Zhu Youjian took a light sip of the tea, then sighed and remarked with emotion, "The livelihood of the common people is truly not easy."
Luo Yangxing nodded upon hearing this and echoed, "Your Excellency’s words are most true. The people live in hardship, and the likes of us should consider their plight more deeply and strive to improve it."
Zhu Youjian put down his teacup and said earnestly, "Taking the people as the foundation is the essential requirement of governance. Only when the people are at peace and happy can the country flourish. We must always keep this principle in mind."
The Flame Emperor listened quietly for a moment before finally speaking, "The Sovereign of the Realm holds the world in his heart, truly making you an enlightened ruler. However, your methods are overly rigid and your penchant for slaughter is excessive; I fear this is not a long-term strategy and may easily provoke turmoil in the court and across the land......
For this reinforcement of Yun Zhonghe, he also led the Beggar Sect disciples of the Southwest Branch to join Yun Zhonghe's forces.
Even with the incomparably powerful strength of the Yamata no Orochi class, it could not withstand the continuous firing of the S12K with a twelve-fold critical hit multiplier.
Although the strength of these two Demon Emperor powerhouses was not particularly outstanding within the same tier, and could even be said to be at the very bottom, a Demon Emperor was still a Demon Emperor after all. Now, a single calamity-realm powerhouse from the enemy side had crippled these two formidable warriors, so how could this result not chill the hearts and strike terror into the Demon army?
The monkey only wanted to pour every ounce of his strength into smashing down this staff—to smash it until the heavens shattered and the earth fractured, turning the world completely upside down.
After this elephant demon emperor died, it reverted to its true form, boasting an immensely huge head. Now that Lin Kuang had carried it out, it immediately drew gasps of astonishment from the surrounding people.
Regarding the future of the petroleum industry, Luo Jia merely touched upon it lightly and glossed over it; after all, the future direction of these giants was not something he could decide.
Logically speaking, the enmity between the two sides was extremely deep. Once her identity was exposed, it should have inevitably drawn countless ancient demons to hunt her down. The reason those ancient demons had not made a move, apart from the Ancestral Demon being on the verge of breaking the seal, was primarily because they wanted to use her identity as the number one cultivator of the mortal realm to lure a large batch of cultivators for sacrifice.
Walking into the temple, Mu Qianmei saw that the deity enshrined in the center was actually the Sea Goddess Mother.
Instead, it was because the vixen had bewitched all the beasts to come and snatch it that he remembered this was a unique thousand-year-old ginseng, prompting him to let Mu Qianmei cultivate beside it.
The towering building was divided into seven floors. Entering the first floor, Tianpeng first observed his surroundings and noticed that the furnishings all around were no different from usual.
To keep the lake as clear and transparent as Qinghu Lake, they also carried out self-remediation and self-purification periodically or every year.
Sulei grew even more puzzled. What on earth was all this whispering about? Then, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Sulei’s mind, and she looked down at her chest.
Jing Huan undoubtedly possessed charm. From the very moment they first met, Han Zeli knew all too well what a stunning appearance Jing Huan possessed.
As that star collided with the star at Li Minghui's location, the star propelled by this Phoenix clan powerhouse suddenly bounced back to its original position, while the star at Li Minghui's location lit up.
However, some students living in remote areas had not yet arrived due to various reasons, and even those boarding students would seek shelter among relatives and friends outside.
This marvelous rhyme shifted once more. Contrary to what Li Heng had imagined, it did not give birth to living beings, but instead manifested a wondrous scene. Within the wonder, the realm was dim and boundless, seeming utterly devoid of anything.
Therefore, the letter paper Luo Xuan bought for himself actually possessed superior quality compared to the stationery of the Zhengxing Production Brigade.
The manager went to collect the luggage, while the members huddled together to chat. Their expressions were all somewhat unnatural; at the thought of the large crowd of media and fans waiting outside, they were overcome by a wave of exhaustion.
Besides, as long as one cannot step into the realm of Futian-tier martial workers, the various minor heavens of the Dykui-tier make no difference to me at all.
When she said she still had her Siyu brother, fireworks instantly burst in his head.
There was no shortage of professional gamblers who lost everything in the casino and continued to inject funds to buy chips; they must have lost their rationality by that time.
However, Chen Lingzhi could sense that the Ghost Shadow was treated as a human being by Zhu Hongsen, whereas she was merely a tool to Zhu Hongsen—and an expendable killing tool at that.
With that, she walked toward the inner room. Qiuqiu was still deep in sleep, completely oblivious to Qixin’s loud shouting.
"Sikou Ting, what is wrong with you? Where are you injured? Is it serious?" At this moment, Mu Qinqin completely disregarded everything right in front of her; her entire mind was occupied by the scene before her eyes.
After the medicinal pellet entered her mouth, the chill erupted. The unconscious Ruoli naturally did not shiver, but one could tell simply from her purplish lips and the frost coagulated on her eyebrows and lashes that the piercing cold was invading her entire body.
The few of them were momentarily stunned, unable to figure out what was happening. "I do not know how we have offended Brother Ji, but please speak plainly. We will definitely make amends," Lan Zhengxuan stepped in to smooth things over.
Good heavens, how could she still have the heart to think about such things right now! She should have resolved Jin Feng's matter sooner; who knew if the Wu clan had any way to lift the death curse.
"Sister's words are quite mistaken. Even here in the capital, our two families have long since been family." Xiao Yu leaned back leisurely and comfortably against the sofa, holding a teacup in one hand while raising the index finger of his other hand, swaying it in front of Jinxi as he argued unhurriedly.
Such words of encouragement might seem somewhat perfunctory in the eyes of others, but Duan Lingwei knew that Avril's words were as genuine as they could possibly be.
Wansheng raised her eyes to look at Guan Teng with a half-smile. She immediately wanted to loosen the confinement of his large grip, leaving him to make his own choice, but Guan Teng was unwilling. He refused to let her pull away, gripping her with all his might, tighter and tighter.
"Nanny—" she cooed coquettishly first, throwing her arms around her cheap mother’s soft and fragrant body, burying herself in Minrong's embrace.
They smuggled daily necessities and grain from the human world across the border to trade for beast pelts, minerals, and magic cores with the wolf-kin of the Orc Empire at Defeng.
Luo Laowai and the others initially thought it was either a ghost or a demon and prepared for a fierce fight, but seeing that it was merely a stealthy old cat, they all breathed a massive sigh of relief, exchanged a few laughs of self-mockery, and lowered their guard. They put away their weapons, sat back down, and, considering their status, none of them cared to bother with an old cat.
