Chapter 258: Ghost Blows Out the Lamp, End

~4 min read 767 words

It has been five days since retrieving the Return to the Void Trigram Mirror.

These five days were spent in the Coral Spiral; since no one had entered this sea area for thousands of years, the night pearls gathered this time were not only each round and plump but also quite numerous—this harvest alone would be enough for several people to squander extravagantly for the rest of their lives.

Others, seeing the South Sea Night Pearl emitting a soft glow, would wake up laughing from their happy sleep each night.

But they didn't know that these

As long as he sat there without a smile, even the air in the whole conference room was icy, let alone such a cramped space in the carriage.

Upon hearing this, everyone drew a sharp breath, especially Su Peixin, who could not accept this fact.

For Hu Ye, this was naturally a good thing. Bringing Hu San Niang and Li Shi Shi back also spared him from constantly worrying about the two. After all, this era still had many uncertainties—for example, Zhao Yuan this time was a good example.

However, before Young Master Rong, who was holding the hairpin, could even observe the hairpin in his hand, her hair, as it fell away, immediately began to turn from a head of black, beautiful strands into white hair in an instant.

Could it have been learned from Consort Jing? No, Consort Qi, although on good terms with Consort Jing on the surface, was only doing so to oppose Noble Consort Lan—so who could it be?

That night, no one spoke a word; regarding this matter, Wu Mei didn't mention a single word.

Suddenly, Bai Er De came running over with an expression of extreme terror, pants soaked with urine and sweat; Lin Xiaoxi stared for a moment, then turned away.

In the Song Dynasty, Emperor Renzong, upon hearing the Black Han King's account, could not help but fly into a rage. The Black Han King did not reveal that the Princess of the Great Song was in Western Xia, which also preserved her reputation and repaid his life-saving kindness.

Looking back on today's events, he could never figure out when this jade pendant had gone missing.

However, Gao Zhan thought it over and felt the matter was indeed a bit thorny; Lin Ziqi was still rather impulsive about it, so future meetings would be awfully awkward.

A distance of several hundred thousand li, at the speed of the Void Treasure Ship, would take only a day or two.

With such formidable explosive force, even a second-rate demonic cult from before would not be a match for the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets alone.

"Gentlemen, your righteousness is high; on behalf of the myriad people of Yan State, I thank you both." Having said that, Crown Prince Dan performed a salute.

Gu Feng now is far superior to before; in strength he has left Sister Feng far behind.

One aspect is the shortage of military provisions; another is that the situation facing Chu State is even more severe than that of several other states.

Chen Zhenghao keenly felt the sense of crisis; thus, if he did not achieve some results, his official career might well end here.

This time, Xiang Zhu inexplicably had a sudden brain cramp and actually invited him to a meal—could Lin Xiaofeng refuse?

Fu Yang, lugging the loot he had snatched and that big sack of Grandpa Bear, really wanted to give that fellow's fluffy head a few more slaps.

At the moment their fists clashed, Luo Puti couldn't help but scream, his phoenix eyes turning red as he was on the verge of tears.

You should know that, in this endless desert, his previous base—if it were him himself—he could have managed such a feat.

Ye Qingcheng lowered his gaze, staring at the white sheets, only then realizing that he didn't know when the two of them had already sat on the bed.

"Murong Che, come out and give me back my son." A somewhat hysterical voice of Yun Duo Duo came from outside the hall.

The black donkey jerked its head up, having caught a flash of lightning in the corner of its eye; but upon closer look the sky held only overcast clouds. After a moment of stupor, it deliberately stomped its hooves a few times to rouse the farmer on its back, for they had arrived at a ruined mountain stronghold halfway up the hill.

The scene could be described as terrifying to the extreme; ordinary people seeing it would likely be frightened into insanity.
