Only after her father reminded her did Jinyudi come to her senses. Of course—she had not been gone long. Carrying a child, they could not have gone far. She had to catch up with them.

The other three Heavenly Generals immediately gathered around. After examining him carefully, they could not help but recoil in horror. Although the Twin-Mace Heavenly General was not yet dead, he was hanging by a thread; it was merely a matter of time before death claimed him.

This place was nothing like a prison. It was practically a night club devoted to pleasure. Lin Lingyu’s phone rang again and again, while her mind was filled entirely with longing and need, and her heart with one dreamlike vision after another, each more ethereal than the last.

After answering, Wu Chengfeng walked to a corner of the great tent. Before long, he returned carrying an object wrapped in brocade and handed it to Luo Yunxiao.

Chaoxi froze. She truly hated suspicion, yet ever since she was little, she had lived constantly surrounded by it. Just now, she had blurted out the question without thinking, never expecting Shang Jue actually to answer. Since he had answered her, should she respond to what he had said?

Li Zhi was confused by Pei Yan’s remark. Why summon Li Zhou? Was that not simply inviting trouble? Whether he admitted it or not, nothing would happen to you. Besides, even if Li Zhou had done it, what could you possibly do?

Her heart was burdened with countless sorrows, but she kept them all bottled up. It was not that they did not want to ask; they simply did not want to disturb him. Whenever Li Zhou wore such an expression, he must have remembered something. They could not help him. All they could do was watch, worry, and offer him a little comfort.

“How is that? Pretty considerate of me, right? Isn’t this exactly what you like? I said it—why are you reacting like that?”

Qin Yi’s eyes flickered, and he stopped in his tracks. After waiting for a while, he discovered that only the young man’s spiritual sense was present across this stretch of sea. His expression darkened as he secretly released a strand of spiritual sense. It “inadvertently” swept over the young man surnamed Jin, then he “fearfully” withdrew it.

Yet Ju Lingxiong’s efforts seemed to have achieved nothing. All three defensive divine artifacts shattered at the slightest contact, to say nothing of Ju Lingxiong’s protective divine radiance, which did not delay the Ice and Snow Giant for even an instant.

Di Renjie calmly stated a great deal. He was not a talkative man; what he said now amounted to an ultimatum to the Phantom Thief.

Seeing this, Lu Tangtang felt there was nothing more to say to Yan Yuanfan. Since he did not understand, saying anything further would be pointless.

“Xiao Yan, you should eat more too. You’ve worked hard taking care of me these past few days.” Ji Xinliang obediently placed some food in Xiao Yan’s bowl.

“Yes. Please wait a moment, Young Lord Xue!” Nanny Jiang hurriedly stopped her obeisance and went down to make the preparations.

I had no idea what had happened, but the situation left me no time for sorrowful reflection. I could only compose myself, force my spirits up, and begin searching for traces of the Netherfrost Beast.

We used to visit Teacher Qi from time to time, but after the matter concerning Qi Xinya was resolved, Teacher Qi was transferred to another hospital, specifically to prevent too many people from visiting him there.

By then, the sky outside had grown even darker. Heavy clouds blanketed it, and fierce winds howled. In the distance, the iron gate opened, and several vehicles drove in one after another.

That girl Qiunong could be unbelievably stubborn when she set her mind to something. Pouting, she continued clutching the oil jar and refused to let go, as though holding on to it would keep Lin Nuan from cooking.

In the end, the words were spoken, but Qin Mingyue did not want to hear them. Although she knew they were not to blame, she still felt bitter and deeply uncomfortable inside.

Chu Xiangsi walked over and sat on the swing. Nangong Zhuohua went around behind her and gently pushed it, sending Chu Xiangsi’s body swaying back and forth with the swing.

The reverence for filial piety throughout the State of Qi was evident enough. Thus, when Tian Jia used the matter of her being enfeoffed as a princess by King Xiang of Qi to request permission to observe mourning for the late king, Queen Jun knew perfectly well that she was deliberately delaying the date of the arranged marriage, yet could only agree.

“All right. As for your safety, you need not worry. I’ll summon two bodyguards for you from Jincheng. They will be more than capable of protecting you.” Ning Fuchen nodded. That was excellent.

During the duel, Jiang Xinyu had secretly used the sound of her qin to create an illusion in the mind of the Princess of Anping. How could the princess possibly come looking for trouble now? And so, this trial passed naturally enough.

The contestants standing around the perimeter were the same, as were the many cultivators in the distance who had come to watch the tournament. They could all see everything within Yang Zhen’s body.

The moment he entered the cave, Ning Fuchen’s mind was flooded with more memories. He felt as though he had once lived in a cave like this—a fleeting memory connected to the Spirit Serpent Cave.

“You two should take things a little more seriously as well. All you do every day is fool around, and you have no idea what lies beyond this door. There might be ferocious star beasts waiting on the other side, or perhaps some unknown danger.” Yue Chuqing said this merely as a reminder and did not sound particularly serious as she spoke.

The officials of Yan were filled with suspicion, but Lord Chang’an openly ordered the wooden barrels to be opened. Inside were mostly salted fish, fragrant wine, chestnuts, dates, and other such goods. Seeing that nothing was amiss, the Yan officials had no choice but to let them join the convoy.

Ye Chen had no intention of leaving this place. It was an ideal location for cultivation, and he would not depart until he had made a substantial improvement. Only then would he go and see how the other Primal Chaos celestial bodies cultivated.
