If you can, bury me beside him—we won’t return to Chiyan Kingdom. Just find some quiet place to lay us to rest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening his folding fan, Qin Jiu walked toward Gu Zhaoxi with a more carefree smile. His white robe, no longer clean or neat, hung loosely, revealing his inner garment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet when Feng Liuzi entered the formation, he suddenly realized Anni and the others had not followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Objects carved from supreme jade must retain their uniqueness—rarity commands value; if ten or more appeared at once, they’d be sold for next to nothing. For instance, Xiao Yao never intended to sell all the Blood Jade he gave to Zhuang Ya Jewelry; Zhuang Hu kept most of it hidden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Me? I have Mieyang inside me—any love potion is useless on me.” Nian Jiuling, puzzled by Leng Yue’s question, answered honestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rui Mama was the late Empress’s most trusted servant, and thus one of the Empress’s most trusted confidantes; she had saved the Empress and her sister multiple times in the past. Though formally mistress and servant, the late Empress had long regarded Rui Mama as a sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much time do we have left? Are there any anti-air missile bases near the oil refinery?” asked the base’s commanding dog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, don’t you two listen to me? Don’t you want your wages? Do you think I won’t suggest to the boss that I fire you?” the captain glared harshly at George and Hollis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid applause, Bai Ma Jun returned to the guest seating area, the New Talent Award trophy in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind them, a dozen black giant bears chased after them, swatting anyone they saw—massive palms the size of fans brought down, each strike claiming a young life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Shaonan didn’t understand Ge Yueying’s meaning, but before he could ask, she had already entered the room and shut the door. Zhang Shaonan swallowed his question, sitting still beside Ye Qing, staring blankly at the empty white paper. Suddenly, the closed door was pushed open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed slowly as Zhao Hao continued refining his inner world; should this world succeed in forming, he would ascend to the Semi-Sage realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He himself felt he had changed greatly. Now, apart from his cultivation method, he no longer resembled a secluded sect cultivator at all—more like those disciples who dealt with the outside world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Yue thought the same; his most hated nations were Wa Country, Nan, and the Three Kingdoms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this alone, it was clear how brazen the Zhou family was within Ping’an County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alina was puzzled by the staff member’s words; she had noticed Hao’s symptoms—these were the most common signs in someone like Hao, who hadn’t even awakened a basic gene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the Chaos World, the Prince of Holy Martial had many refined methods of defense; Gao Fei could never hope to knock him half-dead with a single Nine Heaven Divine Thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought about it, felt her behavior hadn’t been unusual, but understood Zheng Han suspected her and Cao Yue had a secret affair—and was jealous, hence this subtle warning.\u003C\u002Fp>",663,"2026-06-20T15:48:26.995Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","2cecd8db24435edd84ca85bff2d828d7945e8d6d13dbb7eea1ddcdbecd45549a","ascending-to-the-jade-palace-chapter-114","ascending-to-the-jade-palace-chapter-112",243,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fascending-to-the-jade-palace-cover.jpg"]
