Chapter 613: One Foot in Two Boats, One Woman Desires Two Marriages

In the Huaibei region, north of Shouchun City, at the foot of Bagong Mountain on the opposite bank of the Huai River, there is a small market town.

It arose because of trade along the Huai River system; the town leans against Bagong Mountain, its riverbank stretching east‑west in a narrow elongated shape. Bagong Mountain isn't tall, yet its location is exceptionally strategic.

One could even say that without Bagong Mountain, Shouchun's terrain would be unremarkable.

From the summit of Bagong Mountain one can look down from high above and survey the outskirts of Shouchun City across the river.

Mrs. Lu, who has an excellent sense of the big picture, sadly finds that the marriage alliance with Princess Chang and the Qi Duke's household has fallen through.

A jianghu wanderer walks the jianghu relying on unbending vigor, a sword hanging at the waist; if they intend to kill, who cares about your many taboos?

Earlier she scouted a storefront, intending to open a branch of her "Lobster World", but the location wasn't in the bustling commercial district, and she wasn't confident the branch could be as thriving as the main shop.

Yu Jinxi need not even be mentioned; having not exposed Yu Zihao's lineage and sending him into a dead end is already courteous! Show affection? Saints might manage that, but Yu Jinxi could never! He casually instructs a few words of "pay attention to your studies", then leans on the carriage, closes his eyes to rest.

Bai Peng hesitated briefly but did not argue; its size is huge and its target is too obvious. Unfortunately it has not yet fully broken through the Golden God; once it does, it will be able to transform its body.

"Those forces don't they want to publish the information? Don't regret it later!" Chu Yi thought resentfully, since hiring someone to kill a boss requires spending honor points, and it would be a lie to say it isn't frustrating.

Yu Qingyao, quoting "Do not look at what is indecent", hurried to dodge the gaze, but was stopped by Hu Grandma's stare. With no other recourse, she could only continue "watching".

Stephen slapped a dollar bill onto the table, then staggered out of the bar clutching a bottle of liquor.

Yu Qingyao's face lifted a faint smile, mostly because of Pearl's flattery, which always reminded her of elsewhere.

At the training base of the "Meteor Squad", STAR, who was watching the live stream, heard Xiao Jue's remark and his whole face twisted, cursing angrily.

"Looks like we'll have to spend the night halfway." Du Shen climbed onto a rock, surveyed the white smoke shrouding the treetops, then turned and pulled Lu Fan up as well.

In the sky, the distinction was crystal clear; it was a battlefield among god‑king‑level strongmen. Even within the god‑king rank there are grades, and the lower‑grade god‑kings consciously avoided the battles of the great deities. As time passed, even god‑king‑level strongmen began to suffer casualties.

Some wounds, after lingering pain, breed resentment; even if gently soothed, the soft touch can produce sharp thorns that wound others and oneself.

Still in a cool tone, yet inexplicably a spring‑like warmth emerged: "Tomorrow, you must still show me your worth." Mo Leng stared at the jade‑butterfly plum outside the window, a trace of a smile he himself hadn't noticed curling at his lips.

Bei Mingxue finished speaking and felt darkness cloud his vision, then he lost consciousness.

The nearby people, like ants, were hit by the shockwave and flung in all directions, colliding with a "bang bang bang" clatter.

As they chatted, Bing Lan finally got the urge to spoil; she cheerfully said, "Do you know what happened when we went to the Sea‑Blue Parliament?" Her mysterious face made Leader Duan a little amused.

"Once Cui Wei returns safely, Jiang's forces will lead a full‑scale assault on the zombie clan; we will no longer hide our strength. This is a gamble—a deadly gamble." Su Kouye's expression was very solemn.

But how could Feng Yin, such an obedient girl, display such cold, distant yet noble expression?

While Fuxi the Great Emperor led everyone in resisting natural disasters, he also, with the majestic righteousness of Mount Tai, earned boundless love from the masses. Unable to articulate their affection, the people revered Fuxi the Great Emperor as the supreme ruler of the divine land, calling him "Taihao".
