Are you certain you won’t leave?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clan chief first shared with Wang Yulou the intelligence he had received from Gu Qilang, including the clamor on the Immortal Platform regarding the Immortal Alliance’s civil war, then asked Wang Yulou’s intentions once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>West\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, Hu Xiao dragged the Bone Elder over, sealed his mouth, nose, and ears shut, then produced an ant nest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of reflection, A Tai immediately mounted his horse and rode through the long street straight toward the royal palace within Xianyang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have to admit, Su Hu’s sermon was surprisingly effective; upon hearing his words, the people within the city instantly raised their morale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the eighth night, Xiao Yun awoke from cultivation; the instant he opened his eyes, a flash of sharp light shot forth, accompanied by a familiar and potent aura erupting from within his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Young Master Ying, please speak!’ Yang Yanzhao smiled at Ying Xuan, as if he had forgotten his previous actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mountain forest at dawn was damp, dewdrops clinging to every leaf and branch; cicadas chirped incessantly, mingled with the hum of insects. A rainstorm had fallen the previous night, and the air still carried the croaking of frogs—there was a sense of returning to the countryside. Since leaving the capital, he had hardly heard these sounds at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The front of the vehicle faced away from the bridge where Yan Yanqi and the others had descended; this area clearly had long been abandoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no hospital near this lavender estate, and with such a violent storm, the roads must be blocked—even if he contacted Yun Fan, the man could not reach him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since San City was far from Longchuan, departing in the afternoon meant they could not arrive in Longchuan by nightfall, so Ren Ji stayed in San City that day and only set out toward Qianyi the next morning. He finally returned to Qianyi before nightfall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the previous man had returned; seeing Zhang Xiao added to the group, he was slightly surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Aserda cannot find her, and she has no support on this Starling Island, how will she survive?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it came to reading people’s hearts, no one in the world could match Liu Huaidong, who mastered the Art of Observing Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if Liu Huaidong were not a cultivator, how could Sun Ya from the Ye family have witnessed him wielding the Taiyi Divine Needle? Could an ordinary person possibly summon Burning Mountain Fire and Piercing Heart Chill without true qi to sustain it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hai Tao, lord of the Lu family, sat facing his second son Lu Qiming; Lu Hai Tao radiated an aura of authority at all times, while Lu Qiming, normally arrogant and domineering, appeared strangely restrained before his father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘That was just a dream, wasn’t it? How could it be so real? And how could it affect my body?’ Chen Yun shouted in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after these few days, some had noticed his scheme—likely revealed by players who died and re-created their characters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Overall, it was ordinary, but for some reason, Li Zun loved it so much—perhaps it was tied to nostalgia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the pressure vanished after a moment; the Thunder Beast’s heart pounded with lingering fear, it dared not even breathe deeply, too terrified to move, utterly silent and trembling—no resentment, not with such a vast gap in power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qianjin Fortress sat nestled in a mountain hollow, extremely concealed; three sides were sheer cliffs soaring into the clouds, one side a wall over ten zhang high, with a narrow mountain path directly opposite the gate—easily defensible, hard to attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Your Majesty, how could your subjects allow you to risk yourself? Please return to a safe place.’ Li Dingguo heard these passionate words and thought perhaps the emperor had truly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Yuchen shouted out. Behind him, Nan Gong Yixiao and the other ten immediately lined up in a row.\u003C\u002Fp>",702,"2026-06-20T15:48:26.995Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","28041f15aa0041a9c5ca1ab8e177f41c11ddd0657fb0cff3f60c6ab91b652bc5","ascending-to-the-jade-palace-chapter-190","ascending-to-the-jade-palace-chapter-188",243,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fascending-to-the-jade-palace-cover.jpg"]
