Chapter 724: Lie on a Cool Mat in the Heat, Add Layers in the Cold

Shangyuan Night has finally arrived; it is the most distinctive festival of the Tang dynasty and also the grandest, without equal.

Along the canal outside Kaifeng and within the now properly bustling Bianliang City, the night is lit by tens of thousands of lanterns.

Everywhere are Kaifeng Prefecture guards maintaining order; the city's residents wear flower pins and brocade, their robes flowing like clouds toward the lantern fair centered on the Bianzhou Imperial Palace.

Along the canal's streets and pavilions hang seven‑treasure tassels, the eaves' corners

With Zhang Qichao and Ye Fengcheng entering the battle, the situation changes dramatically. Pi Lizhi's anticipated target is achieved, no longer entangled, so he orders everyone to retreat.

"She left?" Seeing the dark wind entering, Qi Sihan asked lightly; he deliberately did not go out to meet Chi Yan.

"Damn, something happened!" Xia Xiaorou just picked up her phone, opened Weibo's hot search, and saw the news about what just occurred.

The matter has progressed to this point; at least one future hidden danger has been completely eliminated, the citizens of South City will no longer be attacked by demonic qi, and Zhao Feng feels a certain relief.

Feng Yumou finished speaking, turned, and left; the situation ahead is severe, leaving no time to waste here.

When the glow of that mark gradually faded, the mysterious ice bead on Gu Ningshuang's wrist began to vibrate.

Fu Yun's condition has barely improved; it cannot tolerate any stimulus or accident. Given An Qing's temperament, she might, upon learning her feelings toward Xiang Nuanyang, develop the intention to seek Fu Yun.

Chu Weiwei thought that if she didn't come, she might never know when she would be cuckolded.

"Go ahead and do it! You have me behind you— the Quan family, the An family, and many others; no one dares to touch you!" Quan Zemu said to An Chuyin.

Jin Shi'er clearly did not grasp the meaning in Lin Jingyi's words; hearing him say that, tears began to swirl in her eyes, almost rolling down her cheeks.

Princess Thirteen blushed instantly, "Um, I'm going to cook, you all chat." With that, she fled as if flying away.

Li Siguang saw Shi Jingtian agree, reached for his own bundle, leapt from the carriage, and headed toward the wooden gate between the big man and the others.

Using the Primordial Holy Soldier as a weapon, combined with numerous Soul‑Realm laws within, the burst of the Light‑Condensing Form reached an unprecedented level.

Xu Chu rode his horse straight down, battling several generals, charging left and right within Wei Yan's great formation. Xu Huang led troops to strike from behind Wei Yan's array, trapping the Wei Yan army in the center, unable to advance or retreat, its front and rear both exposed.

The Heaven‑Absolute Gang is Mu Qingxuan's primary suspect; although not certain, in Mu Qingxuan's view, the gang's baseless words account for at least seventy‑to‑eighty percent of the suspicion.

"The Xiao family should have an heir... right?" Qin Shou seemed to recall something, hesitated for a moment, and said nothing more.

Lu Bu watched the soldiers' misery, feeling the disaster his reckless warfare has brought to the world. Was he wrong? Could the historic Five Barbarians' chaos return, or become even fiercer, because he altered history? Lu Bu did not know; the only thing he could do now was to find a way to boost morale.

Eliminating Hu Zhao cleared Lu Bu's mind; Liu Ye is also an excellent candidate. As a royal relative who studied under Liu Ye, Liu Ye can mediate, and the growing conflict between Lu Bu and the imperial clan will be somewhat eased.

Yue Chen's movements were unseen; his arm reached back like a supple snake, when suddenly a person behind him let out a muffled groan and fell heavily to the ground. Before Yue Chen could rise, the person behind shouted, "Don't kill me, it was my fault just now!" The person, as if possessed, kept repeating that sentence.

Thinking of this, Prince Qi's anger flared even more. Why is his background like this? Is it true that no one wants him? Abandoned by his biological parents as a child, later betrayed by his wife, children, and friends?
