Volume 1, Chapter 64: Returning to the Orphanage
Besides, being a spiritual array master, he could entirely set up a warning spiritual array at the entrance, or even deploy a defensive spiritual array to protect himself.
Zi Lingyang’s younger sister, Zi Ling'er, was precisely a mid-grade divine thought master, and she could make just use of the Star Soul Fruit for her cultivation.
My senior brother suddenly pointed straight ahead, and when I looked closely, sure enough, three figures were walking side by side right in front of us. The people in this world of the Xuanning Lake must undoubtedly belong to the Medicine King Valley! Catching sight of them at this moment meant catching sight of our own sect members, which meant catching sight of our saviors! Overjoyed, we ran forward, shouting greetings from far away.
Such fine liquor was nearly on the verge of extinction due to the extreme rarity of those bizarre serpents, making mass production impossible. Vajra Tiger-Dragon Wine was truly of such nature that every jar used meant one jar fewer in existence. It was only because Grandmaster Hatai held him in high favor that he bestowed such a jar upon him.
Chaos erupted inside the carriage. I opened the door of the box, only to see three burly men staring at me, trembling all over.
At this moment, their faces were naturally exposed. Qiu Yun might not have known the names of the others, but the moment his gaze fell upon the man in the middle, he finally understood why they had been wearing masks.
"Indeed, it is a magnificent treasure!" The Alchemist Association's Zhuo'er Bufan, who possessed a wealth of experience with medicinal fragrances, couldn't help but exclaim in pleasant surprise as he mentally compared it to the highest-grade medicinal fragrance he had ever smelled before.
Almost the instant that black figure materialized, the word "assassin" flashed instantly through Xiang Yun's mind.
The Hundred Herbs Hall that Su Wannian intended to open would exclusively sell herbs, pills, and ointments, mostly finished products, making it exceedingly convenient.
Thinking that Xu Xiuning was going to pay a visit to the children's teacher the next day, Su Wannian flickered into the spatial dimension and began selecting some gifts inside.
Bai Moge chuckled and said to Hu Xiaotian, "Brother Hu, look, didn't I say he would surely become infatuated with the Western Consort Medical Goddess Envoy? The moment he heard she was involved in the wager, he simply used it as an excuse to stake himself as well. Even if he loses, the Western Consort will still remain by his side, leaving no chance for anyone else to snatch her away." Xisha wore a displeased expression, his eyes flashing with sarcasm.
Every time Li Song smashed down with his staff, a surge of golden light would rise from the character for "Buddha," propping up the Samsara Staff as if attempting to block Li Song or push all of Li Song's force right back at him.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, people came to the hospital to visit him. Among them were administrators from the Veterans Association and the newly appointed municipal leadership who had come to power in Qin City following this incident. Only then did Cheng Zhang realize that the young man he and his wife had encountered at the association's entrance that day was actually an unimaginably high-ranking official.
"Are you... holding up alright?" The Queen Mother of the West also lost her former majesty; recalling all the events of the past, she could not help but feel sorrow welling up in her heart.
The troops brought by the Emperor of Earthly Immortals were also Yellow Turban Warriors, but merely ordinary ones whose combat power was not particularly strong—the only immortal skilled in modification was Fairy Taiyi. The forces of the Grand Emperor of Dongyin were the intercepted troops of Jinao Island, numbering around twenty thousand with ferocious combat effectiveness.
Furthermore, once people became impoverished, their standards for quality of life would drop accordingly. Consequently, the filth and disorder within the staff residential areas were severe, with many residents living right amidst piles of garbage.
Neither Robert nor Alahan could maintain control over the situation beneath the walls of Palia City, because the soldiers on both sides were far too elite—so elite that neither side dared to retreat first. When facing an opponent of comparable strength, exposing one's back to them meant giving them an opportunity to cut you down.
This method was known to more than just a handful of people. The Daoist Saint of Wudang had not made it public simply because he knew it would provoke rampant bloodshed and boundless calamities. Moreover, those who did know inevitably harbored selfish motives, unwilling to share the secrets with others in order to prevent being overtaken or even surpassed.
The Northern Peak Imperial Palace had long since been guarded by prohibitions, and with Imperial Pupil and Ao Qingqing present, alongside the various generals under the command of the Eastern Peak's Yellow Robe, everything naturally remained secure.
Regrettably, people often found themselves blasted backward by the sheer force emanating from that magical treasure before they even reached it, while those with lower cultivation bases had their primordial spirits directly shattered, leaving only their souls to be sucked into the Six Paths of Samsara.
"Ji Tao, you need to properly discipline your grandson! He is getting more and more out of hand! If this continues, the Ji family will sooner or later be ruined by him." Lady Ji marched up to Elder Ji and flew into a rage.
He would never consider marriage in this lifetime; if the person he married was not the one he truly loved, what meaning would marriage hold? His career no longer required marriage as a bargaining chip.
Ruan Meng stood on tiptoe, reaching out with both hands to cup Liu邦's cheeks, turning his head to force him to look at her.
"Eldest Young Master, you know Uncle Kun's temperament. He has always disliked showing his face in public. Back when the old master was still alive, whenever he came for a visit, it was always in the dead of night. Otherwise, how do you think Uncle Kun earned the moniker of the Living Hades?" Bodyguard A-Qiang said in a low voice.
Inside the cavern, Yun Chi began attempting her first refinement. The black ring and the Red Lotus Banner formed a triangle with her, controlled by her consciousness and suspended in mid-air.
Alas, I could not heed her, for I simply could not stop. Besides, I had never intended to listen to her in the first place. I wanted to enter; I wanted to know what on earth could possibly exist inside that was drawing me toward it, advancing without pause all the way to the destination.
Striding indignantly out of Nangong Han's office, Lei Zhongqiang clutched those two photographs in his hand, walked straight toward Jiang Chengce's office, and kicked the door open with a single blow.
As for Su Youqing, she harbored the intent to boldly wrest love away from another. She both wanted Mu Manni to know that she fancied Jiang Chengce—while Jiang Chengce remained entangled with her—yet she held some reservations and could not harden her heart to truly hurt Mu Manni.
