Chapter 38

On a small hillside on a battlefield.

Hosa was very vigilant and did not get too close to the city wall, mainly because the ballista shot Deng Ken had fired last time had left him with deep psychological trauma. If it were just a matter of personal martial prowess, his elder brother Henggesi was much stronger than him, yet such a powerful barbarian fighter had been struck by a ballista and vanished just like that.

"The enemy is almost at their breaking point."

A Saxon chieftain's personal guard rushed over, his expression quite spirited as he said: "Chieftain—"

A yellow pagoda swayed as it flew up, appearing directly before Yang Bing. A chain like a steel cable was cast from the pagoda, dangling near Yang Bing's feet. Looking at that thin, weak rope, hesitation appeared in Yang Bing's eyes.

Parked at the entrance of the Fu family's main gate; because it was the weekend, there were not many people at the company, just a few scattered individuals working overtime.

Everyone, including Ma Lanshan, felt a fear welling up from the bottom of their hearts. This was an innate fear, the unstoppable fear of the weak facing a superior. Even though Ma Lanshan's cultivation realm had already reached the early stage of Soul Division, at this moment, he could not control that fear originating from his heart, and his entire body trembled uncontrollably.

In their family, there were no true friends, nor were there any true relatives.

Bai Qingshan pulled Milo along as they walked outward. No one came to obstruct them along the way, but Bai Qingshan could clearly feel that quite a few people were vaguely following behind him.

He should be very clear about what kind of impact it would cause to take Ge Chengji from the Eastern Palace to the Dali Temple. Chang'an was already a place where a storm could be stirred up without any wind, let alone now that there was such a major pretext.

As the Master of the Heavenly Pagoda, Qian Jigu not only had to consider the safety of the disciples under his seat but also had to worry about whether the inheritance of the Spirit-Taming lineage could continue. Once core secrets were leaked, it would surely bring about unpredictable disasters.

"Immortal Master Li, do you think Senior Bai might really not come?" Qian Xiong asked worriedly. Although he did not care about that bit of money, if Bai Qingshan lost, his status in Binhai City would be somewhat insecure in the future. Conversely, if Bai Qingshan won, then I fear no one in this Binhai City would dare to oppose him in the future.

"Uncle Master, do you think this is acceptable?" Bai Qingshan actually already knew from Xia Chen's constantly changing expression that Xia Chen had agreed to his method. At this moment, he probably couldn't bring himself to admit it. Bai Qingshan couldn't help but secretly chuckle in his heart.

"You really are a dog trained by the base!" Tang said word by word, coldly.

Perhaps this was Heaven's arrangement. She had died and come to this place without An He, without a past, and without anything that could stir up her memories, allowing her to learn to let go little by little, to learn to forget, to learn to put down habits of over twenty years, and to learn to get used to a life and world without An He.

Inside the valley, it was still a scene of prosperity; one could see a purple divine dragon and a black gorilla entangled together, playing on the grass.

Before the Buddha, he prayed silently; in his next life, he was willing to be illiterate, to be the lowliest of people, to repay the debt he owed in this life.

"Ning'er! Pull him out!" Ding Guoguo found him to be a nuisance and shouted at Ding Ning, who had followed into the inner chamber, to get him away.

The fiery red figure was none other than Ruan Fei, who had been rescued from the Palace of Gathering Elegance by Shi Kai back then. Now, Ruan Fei had grown much taller and was even more beautiful and charming, especially that pair of large, spirited eyes, which made one unable to bear looking away after seeing them.

Seeing Wang Dong's expression, Lin Ruoyun did not feel a trace of surprise, as if she had long anticipated that he would encounter such a thing.

Those cultivators who had already begun to retreat, upon hearing these words from Shi Kai, also stopped their footsteps one after another and headed toward Black Wind Pass once again.

On the night of the wedding, he was extremely gentle. The next morning, he still had to attend the morning court. Seeing him get up, I wanted to follow him to help him dress, but he stopped me.
