Chapter 28: Battlefield of Carnage
Dapeng gave a light cough. The conversation seemed to have wandered far off course today; they were supposed to be discussing his engagement, so why had they strayed so far? He couldn't help but offer a reminder.
However, Yu'er was currently preoccupied with the safety of her "Fourth Senior Sister," so she did not pay much attention to this feeling or explore it any further.
Yifeng’s lips brushed against her cheek, and he froze, his eyes lowered as he stared directly at her tightly shut lids.
This cold treatment made Zhang Sanfeng and his disciples increasingly anxious, until one day, after Lu Shaobei sent someone with a letter, they finally came to bid Shang Yu farewell.
The bolt of lightning continued to surge forward. Li Pingfan let out a startled roar. Almost subconsciously, he unleashed as much of his corpse-essence as possible in an instant, forming an intensely violent tornado that erupted in every direction.
Jiadi did not understand the reason, but she obediently walked over and sat down in front of Dapeng. Dapeng gently touched the top of her head, then softly closed his eyes, patting her head three times before pulling his hand away.
But one can never know what lies behind a person's face; who knew what kind of schemes they were truly harboring? To hear the way those two spoke, it seemed there was some unknown secret hidden within Gao Huai’s buried treasure. Could these two be spouting nonsense just to divert everyone’s attention? What was going on? What exactly did they mean?
"For your wildness, and because I am just as wild as you!" Li Wei laughed, holding his head high. Zhang Shaoyu nodded and reached out to shake his hand. There are two kinds of wild people in this world: those who are all show, and those who possess true ability. He hoped Li Wei belonged to the latter.
Yuan Shao nodded and said, "As for the affairs in Luoyang, let us proceed as Ze Zhu suggested. Zi Yuan, you shall go as an envoy to Yanzhou and have Mengde provide funds for Zhang Yang’s troops, assisting him in seizing Luoyang! As for the matter of Liu Bei..." At this point, Yuan Shao paused and looked toward Ju Shou and the others.
Beidouxing was utterly helpless. When he tried to call back, Li Huimin refused to answer. A short while later, a series of pictures were sent over—all of them showing him and Snow Velvet Flower embracing.
"You..." Liang Huanyuan was so angry she couldn't speak. Had Tang Bao not heard the sarcasm in her words? How could she just climb up the pole as if she were being complimented?
Compared to her own biological mother, Nana felt she was practically a pure Virgin Mary.
It was already late at night, yet there were still many medical staff at the hospital, likely recalled after receiving an urgent notice.
Ling Fei no longer felt that sharp pain in her neck; her heart eased slightly, and her dark eyes darted about with cleverness.
This time, because of the Black Dragon incident, Song Tianmo had acted unilaterally, simply and crudely serving divorce papers.
The White Tiger let out a heaven-shaking roar. Its massive wounds had sent it into a complete rage. It roared as it charged at the Demon General holding the light sword, but the injury to its left wing not only hampered its flight but also its balance and speed, allowing the demon to dodge easily.
Lying on the bed now, her long hair scattered across the sheets, her flushed face and closed eyes made her look like a red apple waiting to be picked—absolutely adorable.
That was the tree she and her father had planted together when she was ten years old, with her mother standing by to take a photo as a memento.
"Brother Shixun." A pure voice rang out. Everyone turned in unison to see Ding Shitian approaching from afar with graceful poise.
"Very strange?" Song Zhe thought for a moment, his face turning solemn: "Indeed very strange. How could such a large floor slab fall down so suddenly?"
"Brother, call me Brother. From now on, you must treat me well. If you treat me well, I will treat you well. If you deceive me or hurt me, then even if I have to harden my heart..." After leaving the Cold Moon Palace, Qin Zhatian kept reflecting on Chu Yueling's words. He put his mask back on, hiding whatever expression he might have had.
But since she was deliberately trying to get close to her, why not play along? Qin Jiu didn't know what Qiao Yuanzhi’s true purpose was, as it had always been very vague, so she decided to take this opportunity to test him properly.
Just as I finished saying that sentence, my brain suddenly let out a deafening roar, and after that, I knew nothing more.
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang led their troops to attack Wuling Commandery. After the army had been marching for several days, Jin Xuan received word that Liu Bei was coming with a massive force. Anxious, he called for a military council at his manor.
Amidst the knocking, Qin Ji, who had rushed over from the manor, appeared on the scene. It must be said that he had not delayed for even a second on his way here, using the same speed he used to employ when rushing to the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion—frantic and impatient.
Grasping the Laws of the Cloud Sea is a major watershed in one's cultivation realm, and those who can comprehend two Laws are one in ten thousand. Once such a person appears, they are as rare as half a Four-Spirit Physique, and they are bound to receive the best care from the sect.
"As long as you find it beautiful, Young Master." Hearing this, Ziling’s face blossomed with a bright smile. Perhaps just those two simple words were enough to make her very happy.
"What is Yingyuan smiling about? Has she thought of a good idea?" Ruicai keenly noticed the change in Xiao Xiao's expression.
Suddenly, the entire crystal ball began to glow, and then, with a flash, it projected a sequence of images into the underground cavern.
The Ji family had such strong bonds! Although their life was not wealthy, the whole family worked together; the parents were affectionate, and the siblings were loving. Nangong Linyou especially envied such pure affection.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the bidding began. Before long, the price of the Longevity Fruit had been driven up to twenty million spirit stones.
Lin Yue slowly let out a breath of stagnant air, "Third Senior Brother, there is no need to be angry. I will agree to it. In fact, I was going to agree to it anyway. Just think about it, is there anything you’ve asked of me that I haven't agreed to?"
At this moment, Ziyun was racking her brain, trying to figure out how to escape from Zhao Li and the others without having to hand over the rabbit.
"Yes, you are worthy of that title!" Jun Yixiao agreed, and afterward, the conversation between the two flowed more freely.
Lu Yun and his companions did not yet know that their methods of concealing their tracks were completely useless in the eyes of the demon race; they had already been spotted by their enemies.
