Chapter 652: Money for Nothing

~6 min read 1,164 words

Inside the Bright Hall of Luoyang City, the tall and imposing An Shouzhong, clad in leather armor, paced back and forth.

He had already caught whiff of some ominous signs, so he had at least dozens of guards around him at all times. And apart from sleeping and eating, he kept a saber at his waist and never removed his armor. What he was guarding against was assassins secretly dispatched from the Guanzhong region.

"Lord An, Chang'an has sent an envoy over, a eunuch. Are you really not going to see him?"

Deputy General Li Tingwang walked into the Bright Hall and said to An Shou

Xie Guzhou hadn't left; sometimes he would go out, sometimes he'd come back to help her, while Zhao Chengfeng chose to go eat a bowl of soft rice.

She stood in place without saying a word, then suddenly a surge of hatred rose in her heart, and she grabbed a jade vessel beside her, about to smash it to the ground.

At the same time, she was also a bit puzzled. According to the previous host's memories, the most important purpose for him entering this competition was to earn money, to try his luck and survive until the final day.

"Rest assured, Sixth Brother. His Majesty will soon decide to dispatch troops. You can go back and report with peace of mind." Nangong Liuli remained lazily reclined in her seat and spoke indifferently.

"Is it really that cold?" Xu Miaomiao, both exasperated and amused, quickly wrapped her in a thick quilt and pressed a cup of hot water into her hands.

Even though she had already tried very hard to get things done well, the results were still minimal.

Su Yun, having woken up in the camp, couldn't help but stretch, faintly revealing her snow-white skin.

The Jackal Demon Venerable twisted his neck with difficulty and looked at that speck of light, a disdainful expression appearing on his face.

The Dao Comprehension Tea Tree was also extraordinarily effective for quasi-emperors like them. If one could regularly drink the martial tea leaves produced by the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree, even an existence like Ying Kong, who had just entered quasi-emperor realm, would surpass them in ten thousand years.

To obtain exotic treasures and fortuitous encounters, besides needing good luck, one even more so needed outstanding ability and courage.

His body heat and unique masculine aura instantly swirled around Zimeng's nose, making her cheeks flush red.

Nan Xi'er frowned tightly. Never had anyone dared to do such things in the manor before. She turned her head away with some displeasure.

"I gave her the money early on and told her to stop running that breakfast stall, but she refused, saying it wasn't appropriate to take control of the household finances right after arriving. She insisted on only taking the monthly grocery money and let me keep the rest myself," Ning Churen said helplessly.

Mo Qingxue's expression turned cold. This city lord was truly difficult to deal with, even laying such heavy hands on his own people.

Bei Gong hurriedly carried Helian Fengqing as he ran to the side, while Yue Yi and the others followed promptly. Shen Zhan said nothing, leading his troops to storm the Eastern Jin imperial capital, trampling the city with overwhelming force.

But at this year's reunion family banquet, the Empress alone was absent. It was said that the Empress was unwell and truly unfit to go out.

Perhaps Bai Mingshan's wooden hairpin had once again stirred up the Emperor's past memories, those memories of a miserable childhood.

"Coming to the village to propose marriage will definitely cause a sensation, and there'll certainly be plenty of people watching the excitement. So, I had someone run to the candy factory to buy some wholesale. Isn't it nice to hand these out to them?" Ling Wei said with a face full of smiles.

By now, that mountain peak had completely collapsed. The upper half had already vanished, and the remaining portion was hidden behind other peaks, making it impossible to see whether it still existed.

However... if none of this was a hallucination, then Yuan Che showing up here ahead of time could actually be explained.

The first flame arrow did not disappear, but after 'Bang' 'Bang' 'Bang' breaking through Pei Jian's countless magical treasures, only then did it vanish.

However, the knight was subsequently surprised to find that the archer he had struck did not show any stun or damage, but slowly dissipated instead.

"Wow, so handsome!" Some knight players, upon seeing it, looked at that majestic lion and said with envy.

This person was the founding patriarch of a great sect within a nation called the Holy Emperor Nation far away, who in earlier years had some grievances with Ye Gucheng.

His entire aura also violently spread across the whole field. In an instant, the conference room fell completely silent, without the slightest sound. Dai Bang and the others didn't even dare to breathe audibly.

The above were the thoughts of Luo Li, who still didn't know that one third of Chu Yiyun's personality had been erased. If Chu Yiyun were still the original Chu Yiyun, this thought would certainly be correct. But now, with the Chu Yiyun who had perhaps already lost such things as compassion along with one third of his personality erased, would Luo Li's thought still be correct?

Le Yunyan stood there in shocked stupefaction, Da Wuhui's Dao sense was also stunned, while Feng Zai jumped triumphantly back and forth on the surface of the Star Soul.

Seeing that her words had no effect, Dong Xue barked orders at the old woman servant and the underlings nearby. Unfortunately, both were masters, and the old woman servant and underlings couldn't intervene at all. Dong Xue's words were equivalent to saying nothing.

Though he hadn't done much, only quietly watching Lin Feng, Lin Feng knew that this fellow was the most formidable of the three. His earlier mistake was merely due to carelessness. Now, watching Lin Feng like this, he was like a black mamba snake, ready at any moment to strike Lin Feng down.

"All that money was given to Ruiying Hall. Besides that, even more—half of Ruiying Hall's bonus money over the years has been supplied by the Hua family," Hua Jingfeng said solemnly.

Amidst the calls of others, Zhang Rui woke from deep slumber. The moment he opened his eyes, he felt his whole body weak and feeble, not to mention dizziness and a swimming head, accompanied by an intense sensation of hunger.

She heard Xin Ru give an order, and immediately a large sieve net descended from the sky, trapping her within it. She struggled desperately, but the net seemed to cling to her body, impossible to break free no matter what.

However, Ye Yuan didn't mind. Those were mostly battle spirits at the strength of True God First Heaven, and they posed essentially no threat to him at all.
