Chapter 46
It took them nearly an hour to reach the city. Without lingering to wander about, they headed straight for the Shennong Herbal Hall.
Tiansheng stared closely at the granules for a long time. He noticed that after expanding to a certain degree, the granules stopped changing, save for the fact that they continued to spin.
Yet, just this single sentence, along with the sound of the overturned porcelain bowl, caused a flash of inspiration to strike Chuxiu's mind! Logically speaking, the hold should be the most stable place on the entire ship, but Chuxiu still felt that the vessel was rocking uncomfortably, which showed that it could not possibly be a large ship.
Otherwise, if An Ting had been simple-minded and truly just harbored a pure liking for her son, she and her husband would not have broken the two of them up back then.
As Gu Chen walked up to Qin Zifeng, he paused, dropping the calm and effortless demeanor he had just used to correct his subordinate. His expression turned somewhat strange, looking as though he were weighing something, or perhaps deep in thought.
Sheng Ruosi had been driving on the way out, and naturally, she drove on the way back as well. The groceries were placed directly in the trunk, while Gu Xixi sat in the front passenger seat.
"You still haven't answered me, why are you here?" Feng Guang scanned her surroundings out of the corner of her eye, looking for anything she could use for self-defense.
He understood his eldest brother's personality and temperament all too well; everything was centered around the demon race. Moreover, ever since taking on the role of the Demon King, he had indeed greatly improved the standing of the demon race in the Grand Emperor Heaven and secured numerous benefits for them. However, deep down in his heart, his aversion toward human beings had never diminished by even a single day for a single day.
Dongfang Shenyun and Chen Langye exchanged glances, understanding dawning in their hearts as each caught the thoughts running through the other's mind.
Finally, when the Buddhist vital energy within Bai Suzhen's body had once again been largely depleted, the intensely concentrated tribulation clouds hanging over the sky finally exhausted all their lightning power, slowly dissipating to restore a bright and sunny sky to Hangzhou.
Under the influence of this ability, even if an opponent wished to flee, with the entire space completely locked down, they would have no choice but to face his attacks head-on. Furthermore, his strikes carried the power of laws capable of shattering space itself. In this state, no matter how powerful the adversary might be, they would only meet the fate of being slaughtered at his whim.
"Sit down! From now on, you can call me Officer Old Steamed Bun. I am the head of the Intelligence Department for our Independent Division, and I've been following our Division Commander all along," Old Steamed Bun said to Lu Qingping.
Revive the Gu family? It was only then that Gu Ning remembered she had been solely focused on avenging her parents, completely neglecting the thought of restoring the Gu family. Indeed, what Li Zhen said was right; she ought to revive the Gu family. The Gu family was her parents' lifelong painstaking effort, and it could not simply be destroyed by those animals.
"Good." Jiang Dazhu's eyes were full of smiles. In fact, even without Mrs. Zhao saying anything, he would still treat Song Li well.
Everyone felt somewhat unaccustomed to having the Mo family join their household all of a sudden, but Song Li explained to them that the Mo family would stay to take care of them from now on, which could also be considered a way to ease their burden.
Narrowing his eyes slightly, Chen Yuan watched the changes within the array with intense concentration, eager to see what kind of surprise Prince Su could bring him.
"Alright, only these two paths are left unexplored. One of them must be the way out, while the other is a dead end." Gu Feng looked at the two nearly identical fissures before him, both covered in snow and lined with smooth ice. In short, even upon careful inspection, no differences could be discerned.
"Mother, has the second son given you the elderly support money for this year yet?" Song HuaJiang asked. Since approaching Song HuaFeng directly was clearly out of the question, he would have to find a way to achieve his goal through indirect means.
At this moment, Tang Yuan revealed his true colors—after all, triceratops and tyrannosaurus rexes ranked near the very top of the world's most famous dinosaurs. Coming all the way to Jurassic—bah, coming to the Cretaceous period without adopting one each, how could one even have the nerve to claim they had visited an era ruled by dinosaurs?
"There is no need for that. Leave Liuwei Island immediately. This is not your sanctuary, and the Ancient King will not tolerate others toying with him," the Ancient King said coldly.
Hearing Qiu Ming's words, Wu Liang paused for a moment. After casting a glance at Ye Feng and Han Bing, he slowly began to speak.
People like Hou Kangle were obviously prone to bias, and Han Yuying had seen plenty of their kind.
Chen Yu clutched his neck. Heaven knew how long it had been since he had a proper meal; even when he did eat, it was unpalatable tree bark. Furthermore, from the last time he finished chewing that bark until now, several days must have passed without a single morsel entering his stomach. His consciousness had long since blurred, so how could he possibly have the strength to think clearly about anything?
Among the nine children, two had already broken through to the middle stage of Qi Refining. Li Nan had reached the peak of the early stage of Qi Refining last week, and the breakthrough was presumably not far off. Yang Fan intended to take them out for some fun, which was why he made this wager.
Still, it had to be said that in a place like the Lost City, Ye Rubing's ability to simply run a tab was truly impressive.
Discovering that Mochou had regained consciousness, Chen Yu casually tossed over a sack of Chinese cabbages—judging by his past life experience, cabbages ought to be the cheapest item—and then lay down on the ground, thoroughly savoring the aroma of boiled corn.
One could say that the grade-nine pill in his possession was likely the only grade-nine pill in the entire empire. He had never expected that Qin Ziva would casually produce such a precious elixir. Goodness gracious, this fellow actually kept such wonderful treasures on him.
Before the crowd could even react, the scion who had kicked Yang Yiheng directly clutched his leg and rolled onto the ground.
"Doctor Ouyang, about how long will it take for my husband to wake up?" Seeing the three of them enter, Mrs. Wu immediately cast her gaze toward Ouyang Nanchen.
After exchanging a few blows with Meng Qingshan, the heroic master Yan discovered that his opponent possessed astonishing strength. Every time their weapons collided, it would send a numbness tingling through his arms. Seized with sudden panic, he could only retreat while fighting, not daring to face him head-on.
The two of them unconsciously reined in their laughter. With others present, they still needed to mind their image. Even so, they couldn't help casting glances at the young man, especially Lin, who found herself stealing extra looks at him involuntarily.
