Volume 1, Chapter 50: Asking for Trouble
The hotel had been entirely booked by the couple for their wedding.
However, the presidential suite on the top floor was not included. Fu Jinyan had a designated room within the presidential suite, and she was led up there, reaching out to push open the door.
The presidential suite enjoyed exceptional lighting, with floor-to-ceiling windows allowing the afternoon sunlight to flood entirely into the room.
Wuxin's dark green eyes flashed with a mad, unmasked craving for this aromatic blood. His gaze pierced through A-Tao's slightly startled eyes and landed on the semi-conscious Cang Li. Blood—blood of irresistible temptation.
Humans seemed to call this something akin to their very lifeblood. If his lifeblood were gone, wouldn't that mean he would have to go crawling back to the King of Hell? And getting someone back from the King of Hell would be a rather difficult task when the time came.
Shen Bingrao also paid her respects to the Lord Marquis and his Lady. After she instructed Red Fox to present the spiritual wine and spirit fruits she had brought along, everyone took their seats in order.
Although the Hundred Flowers Pavilion had been sealed up this time, Shen Bingrao knew that their real, grueling battle had only just begun, and there would be even more difficulties waiting for them to face and resolve.
The dungeons of the Ministry of Punishments were dark and damp. Today marked the departure of the last batch of exiled criminals, accompanied by the loud shouts of patrolling bailiffs. Convicts wearing wooden cangues walked out in mechanical, orderly lines.
These were spiritual masters and martial artists who had been attacked by special demonic entities during battles in the Demon Realm and corroded by demonic energy; unable to be saved in time, they could only be sealed away using secret techniques.
By the banks of the River of Oblivion, the Manjusaka flowers bloomed as fiercely as raging fire. Mist rose from the river waters, as if carrying the memories of all living beings within them, flowing slowly along.
Because the entrance was well-hidden and further sealed by special restrictive barriers, there were naturally no guards stationed here.
"They just like you." The Desire Demon only occasionally visited the Elf Realm, and usually spent his time in deep slumber at Sky-Piercing Cliff.
Before Qin Baihe could check her momentum, she crashed directly into his arms. Junhao instinctively opened his arms and caught her.
Hu Dong spoke these words quite casually, with no intention of criticizing Chen Feng. Everyone could hear that, and besides, he even managed to make up a good excuse for Chen Feng in the end.
Wasn't this temporal-spatial aura right before his eyes precisely the third realm that he had always wanted to comprehend but could never grasp?
The Nascent Soul cultivators in the vicinity would inevitably come to observe this natural anomaly, and they probably wouldn't be so easy to send away.
At this thought, Shen Dong felt a chill rise from the bottom of his heart, and he instantly decided to summon a divine envoy to deal with Zhang Mo.
No wonder there had suddenly been so many difficult problems left behind lately; it was all the mischief of Li Chunfeng. "What else is there to fuss about with coal? Just light it and burn it to cook meals, stir-fry dishes, and boil noodles. What else can you do?" Feeling that he had acted as a long-term laborer for a complete stranger without even seeing a shred of wages, he felt utterly ripped off.
The sudden voice sounded like a force emerging from thin air. The newcomer's movements still went undetected by Lingyan, yet their physical body had already appeared right beside him.
"Such utter nonsense!" Lanling was amused by her own outburst of vulgarity, and feeling too embarrassed to continue her violent streak, she withdrew her stance, threw herself back into the soft chair, and let out a few soft, amused chuckles.
After several consecutive days of slaughter, the three new god cards Jiang Li had obtained a while ago were now completely unfrozen. Having some free time today, he prepared to integrate these three cards into his card array as well. He estimated that the power of the new array would be even more astonishing, perhaps giving him the sensation of becoming a god.
Therefore, for those ancient heritage families, the possibility of impersonation virtually did not exist. All they needed was physical contact with one another to determine whether a person shared the exact same bloodline flowing through their veins. Likewise, this was an effective method used to verify distant relatives.
Among all the races in the ocean, the combat strength of the Merman race ranked from lower to middle. Many mindless fish, shrimp, and crabs served as their food, but they themselves were prey to large carnivorous species, such as sharks, whales, octopuses, or ferocious sea snakes, any of which could easily make a meal of them.
