Chapter 118: Suiren the Human Emperor, Duobao of the Jie Sect

Candle Nine Yin presented the four supreme treasures and, without lingering, turned and departed.

Emperor Cang was delighted as he put away the four supreme treasures, then led his vast retinue into the territory of the Suiren Tribe. From a great distance, they could already see the tribe’s ruler, the Human Sovereign Suiren, leading an enormous number of human dignitaries to welcome them.

Although Suiren was human, he lived in the prehistoric world, cultivating tirelessly day and night. He tempered himself in divine fire and cultivated the Great Dao of Fire within his body. His physique was as sturdy as a savage bull, and his bronze-colored skin gleamed like divine iron. If only—

However, in the interest of fairness, Ou Yucheng merely called in an ordinary guard from outside to sign the document. This time, neither the Left nor the Right Chancellor had anything more to say.

From Gu Zhenhe’s abilities, Wang Zhi could already see that the old man was no ordinary person. A man with connections so broad might well prove useful someday, so this was merely laying the groundwork in advance. Ever since he had embarked on the path of promoting traditional Chinese medicine, he had been making plans everywhere and calculating every step.

Wang Ming looked at Shi Xiaozhi in his arms, caught between laughter and tears. His hand had originally been wandering restlessly over her back, searching for somewhere soft, but she had actually fallen asleep just like that. Wang Ming could only place his hand around her waist and hold her tightly to keep her from falling.

“After we cooperate—that is, after we join forces and successfully crush the Ironhead Society—you may expand our organization. But you are forbidden to expand it under the name of some hall or branch again,” Zong Feng said gravely.

“As for your assignment, I already had Viper brief you on it. Do you have any questions?” Wang Ming asked.

“Wuxin, go back to the inn first. I’ll be right back.” Ling Yue turned and urged Mo Wuxin to leave without telling him anything. She herself had not yet sorted out what she was thinking, so how could she explain it to him?

That was not what Wang Ming had meant. He had merely spoken offhandedly, never expecting Guan Ying to draw such a profound conclusion. It took him completely by surprise.

With a sudden clatter, before Zong Feng could even give the order, everyone rushed into the tube-shaped apartment building like a swarm.

Beneath the night sky, the surface of the sea was an expanse of black that no gaze could penetrate. The cold seawater was the only thing that existed here. Even the lightest touch of a finger inspired the terror of being bitten by a ferocious beast’s razor-sharp teeth, then dragged mercilessly into the depths and devoured.

“Hmph…” Levi sheathed his sword and looked toward the giant dragon circling in midair. He had no intention of attacking again, though a trace of concealed worry still lingered in his eyes. Beside him, Whiteface merely smiled without saying a word.

“Mother is right. Father is very powerful—he only beats up bad people.” Red Bean nodded emphatically, agreeing with her mother.

“Qiao Yuzhi, that’s enough! The claim that Su Qianxia was gang-raped by beggars is completely untrue!” Luo Ziye glared fiercely at Qiao Yuzhi and shouted.

“Little girl, you really know how to please me. As long as I can’t see any bruising, that’s all that matters.” Liu Muqiu’s eyes curved with delight. What the eyes did not see, the heart would not grieve over. If she could not see the bruises and swelling, she naturally would not feel so distressed.

It turned out that when they had come out just now, they had happened to reach the vicinity of a Jingwei. Within its domain, Jingwei’s vision remained no different from usual, but Shen Nuo had lost her sight completely. Even her other senses had grown dull, and as the rescue continued, she realized that her perceptiveness was rapidly deteriorating as well.

While chatting with the cook, the maid made a point of telling her that Sheng Ranran had gone to the hospital for an examination and that her health was perfectly fine.

“How is she supposed to answer that?” Flustered and embarrassed, she exerted herself and snatched the box away. But when she opened it, she froze.

Under ordinary circumstances, Su Zhen would have cooperated with Shang Qingmei and smiled. But at that moment, he merely said, “Ronggui seems to have something to say to you,” then pointed toward a chair, indicating that Su Ronggui should sit down.

Su Ronggui had not yet emerged from the editor-in-chief’s office when Tu Hengsha glanced at his seat and left together with Hao Ren.

Unable to think of a way to repay him for the moment, Zhong Cang simply stopped dwelling on it and returned his attention to the matter at hand. He and his senior sister still had plenty of time together; there was no need to rush.

The uncle and sister-in-law immediately tumbled down the steps in a tangled heap, groaning and grimacing in pain.

According to Zhou Wu, Lin Yin had signed an enlistment agreement with the Second Legion six months ago. Although he had not yet graduated, administratively speaking, he was already a member of the Second Legion.

Although he remained within the dream, he no longer possessed that former sensation of being able to control all things.

Thinking that he had enjoyed himself throughout the journey and might even earn a second look from his stern old father after returning home, Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt as though he was about to reach the peak of his life.

Xiao Ting offered no explanation. It was fine if Bai Qi misunderstood him. He did not want anyone else to learn Xing’er’s secret.

“Mm.” Yine’s eyes widened at once, and her body suddenly went rigid. She felt her soul tremble as a strange sensation surged from her lips into her sea of consciousness, sending ripples through it. Even her soul-power body became somewhat unstable. The next instant, an inexplicable flush spread across her dimpled cheeks.

She was startled when she heard that, thinking someone really was about to come upstairs. She quickly jumped off me and grabbed one of my clothes from the bed to cover her body.

In the blink of an eye, his meridians swelled to the point of bursting, blood vessels surfacing beneath the skin, while piercing pain spread throughout his entire body. The Blue Silver Grass martial soul in his hand trembled repeatedly, showing faint signs of collapse.

The three of them ate some dry provisions, then lit a campfire. As darkness settled over the sky, Xing’er, exhausted after a full day on the road, was the first to fall asleep while clutching Xiao Ting’s arm.

Yu Qingyao understood all the principles perfectly, but whenever she thought of the darkness of night, a chill would run through her entire body. The pain, the swelling, the soreness that felt as though she had been crushed beneath a millstone, the agony that seemed ready to split her apart—she truly did not wish to endure it again.

Princess Lianyue bit her alluring pink lips, and a faint mist rose involuntarily in her lively eyes. She looked at Ye Cheng and answered his question with complete seriousness.

Shuiyue… was dead. It had been foretold long ago. Take her previous life, for instance: if she had not died in the bridal hall, but had truly married, devoted herself to her husband, raised children, and lived a quiet, stable life, would everything have turned out differently? Her heart had been worn away until nothing remained but dust. How could such a heart ever heal?

And now, the injuries on Xia Xun’s body had already improved tremendously compared with when he had been on the mountaintop.

Outside, Zhu Yun gazed arrogantly at the river of history. He was certain that Wu Yan would be drained of all his spiritual power by his Thousand-Year Dream and die. There was not the slightest source of spiritual power there to replenish him. Once his spiritual power was exhausted, Wu Yan’s fate could already be foreseen.
