Volume 1, Chapter 46: Zhu Youjian Judges the Case on the Spot!

Even the burly and robust man could not help but reveal a look of astonishment.
The wise and brilliant Grand Chancellor of the Cabinet—that was a figure comparable in status to Fang Xuanling, the prime minister of the illustrious Tang dynasty.
After finishing the cleanup, they found that Yueli was still sitting beside the dining table, gazing blankly at the bright moon outside the window, lost in thought.
The only puzzle was that they could not find any corpses whatsoever—neither human bodies nor zombie remains.
However, long-cultivated habits caused Xu Zipei to exude an aura of tranquil and elegant serenity even when placing his move on the board.
Before good fortune arrived, she waited instead for Su Yihang. With just a single glance, she knew that Mengmeng had not lied to her.
Lu Yunfang, standing nearby, was scolded, and upon hearing him refer to her as "my Ah Ning," she felt as though she were about to collapse. He was going to get engaged to that Xu Ning! How could that be possible! Finally unable to bear the blow, she fainted.
Gong Xique said: Xie Han's child is your child; the child belongs to both of you equally. As for Xie Han's house, if it is registered under the child's name, you will likewise be able to live there until the end of your days.
Yuan Qiuhua burst into loud song, singing: Calabash Brothers, Calabash Brothers, seven flowers on a single vine, unafraid of wind and rain, la la la la.
After Yueli went outside, Jinyan cast aside her kind and lovely facade, sitting on the sofa like a boss.
Yet, after all, he yielded to Changli's will and ceased his entanglement, skipping and hopping instead toward the Manor of the Princess of Yanghua.
Yunchu swung her right fist, striking out with all her might. The barrier quivered slightly, emitting a muffled impact sound, but her force was easily neutralized and appeared utterly insignificant.
"You and I have nothing much to talk about," Irelia gave a bored yawn, cutting off any further conversation with a single sentence.
The battle sickle in Xiaoying's hand was already closing in on him. Having no chance to dodge, he had no choice but to brace himself and meet it head-on.
Why would Xie Yun ask Bai Lixian whether he wanted to see Su Yuewan? And why would Bai Lixian, in turn, ask me what I meant by that? That meant he knew I was Su Qian'er; he had known my identity all along, only he had never laid it out in the open and talked about it with me the way Lou Yihang and Ouyang Junyu did.
Han Tiefei flared his nostrils and lunged to grab Yunchu by the shoulder. Yunchu took a step back and lashed out with a palm strike. Their palms collided; the former showed a look of surprise, while the latter retreated a few steps.

The throne was cushioned with several layers of soft beast pelts, and the backrest, perfectly contoured for a true dragon, was inlaid with glittering gemstones, providing a sense of comfort while satisfying the red dragon's excessive and greedy pursuit of treasure.
Chaotic and disordered elemental currents covered the surface of the fissure, and the frenzied power contained within them was capable of tearing apart anything that attempted to pass through.
I knew in my heart that Brother Yun would never return. I had told myself that I should live my life well, just as he would have wished, and find happiness of my own.
Shao Ming shouted into Li Xin's communicator, tore down a window curtain to tie around Li Xin's neck, and hurled him out of the window, anchored by the table.
Though he did not know whether Lan Xi's disposition was good or bad, at least for the moment, the two of them were companions who had shared hardships together.
The middle-aged man's voice, much like his physical form, gradually grew ethereal until it finally vanished altogether.
At this moment, various aristocratic clans rushing in from all parts of Bingzhou could be seen from time to time. Looking into the distance, one could see clouds of dust rising high along the broad official roads, accompanied by a deafening clamor.
"Shall I have them called back for you right now?" Feng Chi crossed his arms, leaning back comfortably into the luxurious leather armchair. His impeccably handsome, impossibly thin lips curled upward into a slight smile that felt somewhat roguish, slightly wicked, and tinged with a trace of disdainful indifference.
Such a posture of seated repose could never be fully settled. Therefore, to preserve those jade stones and also to display their own beauty, each of the beauties rested only one half of her buttocks upon the jade, keeping her waist held straight.
Qian Junpo's previous move had consumed too much of his own battle qi, and a kill-move in which he had total confidence was actually neutralized by Lin Pokong's Thunder Armor.
Yet when Jiang Chengce suddenly recalled that stifling private room where he had danced intimately and closely with Zheng Kelan and successfully "hooked up," he still could not help feeling a lingering fondness for the memory.
Xinghe looked down at the chaotic waters beneath him, then glanced at the water demons knocked over by the shockwave generated by Muxue's roar, and sighed.
The two maidservants who had been waiting outside the hall were startled in unison. They hurried up behind her, reaching out to tug at her sleeves.
Guchen rolled his eyes in exasperation. The torture he had just experienced filled his heart with dread, and he did not dare to unleash it a second time.
Huo Youchen wanted to say something more, but Lin Luo pinched him on the waist first and gave him a warning glare.
However, Ye and the elderly man were still discussing the matter when they suddenly noticed a long sword hurtling toward them.

Sages do not permanently interfere with the hegemony of the Three Realms, whereas Duobao Daoist intends to use peerless dominance to compel even the sages to acknowledge this reality—that the hegemony of the Three Realms belongs to Duobao Daoist.
Looking closely, one saw that amidst the low mountains there was a monstrous beast of terrifying appearance, partly resembling a dog and partly a dragon. The beast grew to an immense size, standing perhaps over three zhang high and five zhang long. It bore a striking resemblance to a qilin, covered entirely in pitch-black scales, with hooves on its feet, and in terms of ferocity, it even surpassed one.
"Guoguo? What date is it today?" Wearing loose, pure cotton home clothes, Xiao Han sat on the sofa directing Guoguo.
Climbing halfway up the mountainside, Leao and Qiqi had no choice but to begin using their battle qi. They donned their golden and silver battle armors one after another, partly to ward off the biting cold and partly to avoid injury.
"See for yourself! After a while, you will understand! By the way, hasn't Ruiqi returned yet?" Wu Di asked casually.
"Old classmate, tell me about it in detail. Perhaps I can help you solve this difficult problem," Zhao Policy said with a chuckle, handing Wang Zhiping a cigarette.
Ye Zining's face was also somewhat pale. With so many people watching, she had never expected Lin Luo to reach out and strike someone.
The moment the people at the Free City-state outpost saw Shenglan, they immediately grew excited, because Copper Hand had already issued a command that anyone seeing Shenglan must treat her with utmost courtesy.
"Excuse me, do I know you? Why do you know my name, and why are you looking for me?" My mind instantly went completely blank.
She calmly gazed at the vortex before her, watching it compress and tighten continuously as it drilled into her body. With a faint smile, she began to quietly experience the sensation.
"This isn't being stubborn; I am simply trying my utmost to protect the person who matters most to me." Jin Yexing looked into Dick's eyes, his deep gaze shifting slightly as he moved his lips.
Just now, the anticipation had been too great, leading to a profound disappointment, but by now he had already adjusted his mindset.
Resentfully glancing at Tang Yin beside her, Liu Mengmeng truly felt that she had chosen her friends poorly. How could she have made friends with such a big mouth? It was simply touching upon every taboo, dwelling on the exact topic she least wanted to mentioned with great relish.
