Court is in session

"Nanny, I heard that a person of great power and influence has arrived at the estate. I've never seen such an important person in all my life; may I go and take a look?" Su Jin blinked.

Accused by the three princes of overstepping her bounds and crossing the line, Empress Wang's face instantly flushed red with embarrassment. She wanted to throw a tantrum, but realized she lacked any valid justification. After holding it in for a long time, the tears finally overflowed, falling like broken pearls.

Geling found this strange and turned to look at Zijin, but Zijin had already turned around and walked back into the courtyard.

Connecting the events of the past few days, Li Yuande understood that this letter must have been written to him by Datura. Of course, she was not the one who penned it, but it should have been written in accordance with her wishes. However, he had no evidence to prove that the letter was instigated by Datura.

"Yes." Hearing Old Madam Mu mention that child once again, Jiang Suxin felt a sharp ache in her heart, concealing the pain deep within her eyes.

Luan Qing excelled in archery, and those skilled in archery were presumably adept at launching covert attacks. Her arrows were unpredictable and possessed spatial penetration abilities.

"Antiques from the Western Han Dynasty?" Chen Feng was momentarily stunned. Although his history was not exceptional, he knew that the Western Han was the dynasty established by Liu Bang after defeating Xiang Yu, dating back over two thousand years. If these items were from that era, they would indeed be extremely valuable.

In an instant, completely defenseless, the Qianlong Emperor began to bleed from his ears. His entire mind descended into chaos, losing all sense of direction, with a persistent buzzing in his eyes and ears. He didn't even notice that his trousers were soaked.

Yinzhan learned her lesson and no longer dared to touch the paper with her hands. Struggling to decipher the remaining faded handwriting, she spent quite a while recognizing the three characters for "Bliss City," only for the word "Bliss" to be heavily crossed out and changed to a ferocious "Evil" character.

The High Priestess was unfamiliar with Eastern formations and could only rely on her own experience to judge. After walking for an unknown amount of time, movement suddenly echoed from ahead. She stepped forward without a second thought, not overly concerned for her own safety, but rather deeply worried about the safety of the priests who had followed her.

Tie Zheng was shocked. The sharp-voiced otherworldly entities and that vulture-like creature intercepting Handu from behind possessed terrifying strength, nearly matching Handu. Combined with another otherworldly entity wielding a battle spear, Handu was instantly severely wounded.

Just at that moment, tanks and armored vehicles gradually revealed their menacing silhouettes from the northern side, their dark, hollow gun barrels directly locked onto the three Japanese tanks in the distance.

At this moment, Lin Yu's body inside the incinerator was nearly reduced to ashes. Suddenly, an emerald-green pendant amidst the embers burst into a dazzling light within the intense flames.

"This brave warrior—" Before the military officer could finish speaking, he saw the valiant warrior holding Liu Liangzuo's severed head close his eyes and faint.

In truth, this fellow was a truly terrifying genius named Spiral Drill, hailing from the Spiral Continent.

"Do not worry. Until this barrier is shattered, they will never make a move!" Ling Chong waved his hand.

Zhu's hand pressed precisely where he remembered the switch should be, and the tactile sensation under his palm indeed confirmed he was touching a physical object. Yet, no matter how he pressed the switch, not a single speck of light illuminated. Moreover, at this very moment, the wet, sloshing sound of footsteps echoed once again.

Yu Haochen said, "Junior Brother, upon careful reflection by your elder brother, the Heavenly Melon Decree is not entirely unreasonable. Master does not have much time left. If we fail to achieve a breakthrough soon, I fear our sect's sole Spiritual Honor expert will leave us, and with only a few Spiritual Ancestors remaining, our sect's demise will not be far off."

What made it obvious was that the entire kitchen floor was made of bare earth, save for this one spot covered by a heavy stone slab, upon which a large water jar rested. Through the gaps at the edges of the slab, shadowy figures could faintly be seen shifting about underneath.

After blasting Majin Buu to pieces, Helis roared and relentlessly hammered her chest with her fists, continuously releasing destructive beams of light from her mouth.

Wu Yong had originally expected to hear some imperial secrets, but after listening for a long time without hearing any major revelations—only being questioned himself—he grew somewhat bored, and his expression turned absent-minded.

"Feder, take my token and notify all detachments not to make a move yet; await my command. William, immediately inform Chen to wait and watch for developments, and discuss further only after we have investigated clearly. I will go to Wonderland Villa to see what discoveries they have made." Having issued his orders, Daniel hurriedly departed the Holy Land with his men and headed straight for the villa.

Opening my phone, I logged onto QQ and found Lao Mo, my good friend. We met through the internet and bonded over shared hobbies; he was an engineering student much older than myself.

Therefore, at this moment, Nangong Changfeng's demeanor was exceptionally relaxed and easygoing. He spread his hands in a gesture of utter helplessness.

The minds of Nangong Changfeng and Zhong Xingyun were instantly shrouded by an ominous cloud. They exchanged glances, each seeing profound inner terror reflected in the other's pupils.

The four brothers had accompanied one another for over a hundred years, and their bond was as steadfast as a rock. Yet now, facing the choices made by the third and fourth brothers, how could he, the second eldest, not feel grief?

Many people chose to return to their native land, vowing to live and die with their homeland, while even more chose to go back to rescue their families and then flee to this familiar country, escaping the ravages of war and avoiding its cruelty.

The dark secrets of their past regulatory violations began to sprout like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, awakened by the sudden clarity of the people on the internet.

"Sister-in-law, what exactly is Ning Yu's background? Do you know?" Chu Mo's paternal aunt, Chu Lan, finally couldn't help but ask first.

"I'm sorry, I thought he was trying to take advantage of me, which is why I struck him," Situ Qing realized what had happened and offered an apology.

Li Fei almost spat his mouthful of alcohol right into the other person's face. Damn it, it was actually Lai Yuejin? Why on earth did this guy suddenly pop up?

As for why he arrived so late, it was entirely intentional on Qiu Fei's part, meant to give Wang Xinyue and the boss behind her a psychological blow.

Even so, Luciela did not stop her attack. Her awakened form's combat style was exceptionally suited for close-quarters grappling; countless giant mouths suddenly erupted all over her body, snapping shut and tearing Isley's carapace to shreds.

Li Mingyue personally led Feng Qingyu and the others to a courtyard that looked completely different from the Jinbi-glorious hall they had just left.

However, since everything had been agreed upon, it wouldn't do to change things now; otherwise, it would seem as though he were shamelessly clinging to influential figures, and he would surely be despised by Long Yuan and Dongfang Bai. He could always cooperate later when the opportunity arose, as Liu Wei had plenty of ways to make money.
