Volume 1, Chapter 52: Yunxi, Say You Love Me

"We are mother and son; just ask whatever you wish. Is there anything your imperial mother would keep from you?" Consort Hua smiled affectionately. Yan Ziming was her only son, as well as the one she cherished the most, so there was nothing they could not discuss between them.

Walking closer, Su Qingyuan saw that her father's face was clouded with worry, as if he were struggling to make a certain decision, which made her deeply anxious that this decision might involve her.

Deng Ning snapped back to her senses. The thought of facing the reigning Prince Regent made her heart begin to flutter with tension. Keeping her head lowered, she allowed Liu Qi to lead her inside.

One thing after another—first the Marquis of Hanguo, and then the privileged Grand Princess—anyone could understand what Lu Jue was implying. Now, everyone began to recall his true status, destined that someone would be unable to escape retribution this day.

Yin Le took the wild fruit, rubbed it against her sleeve, and bit into it. Chu Ye also handed one to Chu Kun. Unlike the rough and ready Yin Le, Chu Kun took out a handkerchief from his bosom and wiped it clean before putting it into his mouth.

As long as King Lin developed the Bone Dragon City plain just like he did at Skeleton City, their Skeleton City players would make a fortune!

"You look terrible when you're jealous." Yin Le rested her head on his shoulder, wrapped her arms around his torso, and closed her eyes, looking genuinely drowsy.

"Hmph. I have so much time, I might as well open a brothel just for fun," Bai Zi said. He was merely joking, but casting a glance sideways, he caught Yin Le's deep, pensive expression.

"Legend has it that the cultivation level of a Realm Master is below the Nine Emperors, while some Realm Masters are above the Nine Emperors, falling somewhere between the Nine Emperors and the Three Sovereigns. Is this true?" Lin Yue asked.

As soon as Lu Jue's voice fell, two guards bypassed Lu Tianhua and strode over to Zhou Ruoning, seizing her.

Yet, Miao Zeshang currently looked not only completely uninjured but rather full of vitality, throwing punches and striking with palms of terrifying might.

With a resounding roar, Liu Zi'er flashed out, and shortly after, several of them scrambled out in the nick of time.

On one side, there was still no news of Shi Hao; on the other, Shi Zichen commanded her to return immediately the next day. She had no idea what to do.

"I've thought it over. I was a bit conflicted before, but now it seems to be the time to make up my mind!" Xu Hong nodded slightly, speaking with considerable determination. From his facial expressions and gestures at that moment, it was clear he had truly made a monumental resolution.

There was nothing to ravish, really; he was a lone bachelor, ready if he wanted to, but Li Xiaoqian probably hadn't even formed such a thought in her mind yet. So the only option left was to steal. However, Li Xiaoqian did not seem to lack money, food, or clothing—what was there to steal?

"You caused Xian'er's child to die?" Baili Cangming narrowed his eyes slightly, speaking as if recounting something utterly commonplace.

Bai Cen was somewhat bewildered, failing to grasp the deeper meaning behind the old mistress's words. Though not entirely clear, he understood it was meant to encourage the Madam, so he hurriedly gave his assent and went to deliver the prescription to Nangong Xiao.

Right now, True Immortal Tianhua's path of immortal cultivation was entirely novel, completely different from the ostentatious cultivation styles of the present era. To put it bluntly, the foundation laid at the very beginning differed, leading to vastly divergent outcomes further down the line.

Teacher Cui's hometown, Cuigong Ao, was nestled deep within the Qionglong scenic area, characterized by winding roads, hazy clouds and mist, lush forests, and picturesque scenery.

Li Guo slowly drew half of the treasured sword from his waist. Although he could not bear to slaughter these pathetic, rebellious commoners, he had no choice but to obey Moli's orders. When he originally decided to throw in his lot under Moli's command, he had already told himself that from then on, he would follow Moli's lead in all things and never betray him.

"Yu... Yu Min, don't be afraid. From the very beginning, we did nothing wrong. He was the one who blew things out of proportion, so we are the ones standing on the side of reason. There's no need to apologize." Qian Xinuo must have grown an exceptionally bold heart of steel to dare utter such words.

Golden long tables, rosewood dining trays, jade wine cups, and exotic delicacies... yet none of this could stir the slightest emotion in Murong Ruo.

He looked thoroughly sincere, while also harboring a faint trace of awe and fanatical devotion toward Tie Junyi.

Because of that remark about "your Ruyi," Jiang Yichen's smile grew even more radiant, prompting him to completely ignore the final sentence.

Xu Jiaxin, anxiously waiting inside the villa, caught sight of Jiang Beichen striding into the foyer and rushed toward him with a face full of joy almost instinctively.

Once she grasped Chu Chu this time, letting go truly became an impossibility. Gritting her teeth, she endured the heart-rending sensation as if thousands of steel needles were piercing through her palms, yet no matter how hard she struggled, she could not break free.

Chu Meng had nothing more to say other than shaking her head. She understood Chu Qiao; though kind and simple-minded, her temper was stubborn to a fault. Once she made up her mind about something, she would not easily change it. Otherwise, she wouldn't have spent all those long past years yearning to reclaim Jiang Yixuan's guardianship and custody.

Sure enough, speak of the devil, just as Lin Tianlong was thinking this, Zhang Xin'er suddenly lost consciousness the moment the protective shield opened, pitching forward and crashing straight to the ground.

Qin Shi Huang believed that with the revised laws of the Qin Dynasty, loopholes like the ones shown on the heavenly screen would never appear again.

This was also the reason why powerful ancient Pokémon trainers could become great lords and rule over vast domains.

Back then it was not yet so pronounced, but as she grew older, a cascade of long, wavy hair draped over her shoulders, looking more gorgeous and sophisticated than many people's deliberate dyeing and perming, already clearly revealing her future breathtaking beauty.

Shaking his head, Jiang Xun mercifully let the other person off, hugged his box with delight, and sat down. Scarcely had he settled into his seat when he impatiently opened the box to inspect it closely.

Leaving behind a business card, the man waved at Shen Jin and walked away without looking back, leaving Shen Jin with no way to call him back.

Simply put, Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism was actually a form of Confucian religion, which first established a goal for everyone—the so-called Heavenly Principle.

Everyone was immersed in this scene, to the extent that Zhou Ran could no longer tell whether the present moment was sunrise or sunset.
