Chapter 159

What's wrong?

Shen Siyuan was surprised to see the round-faced girl staring at him blankly.

"N-nothing, Your Divine Excellency, greetings." Yuan Xiaoying hurriedly stood up.

But because she moved too fast and her body was too light, she floated upward, only to quickly fall back down.

This flurry of motion revealed she had died recently and was still unaccustomed to her current state.

Your Divine Excellency, you

So she changed her plan: she would kill everyone on the Cangmang Continent and in the Divine Beast Realm who was close to Feng Yunchan, so that Feng Yunchan wouldn't be alone on the path to the Underworld.

At this point, she no longer feared alerting the robots; she leapt swiftly inside, then spoke to Hua Yueling.

Li Jiji didn't know why she suddenly felt melancholy; looking into Gu Yuanmu's sorrowful eyes, her heart felt as if thousands of ants were biting it.

If he had the proper equipment of a professional angler—the fishing boat, sea rod, metal fishing line—he wouldn't have to exert himself so much.

Liang Ye spoke patiently, and Claire no longer tried to struggle; instead, she listened carefully to what Liang Ye was saying.

Before Alden could react, Liang Ye had already appeared before him, and his right sleeve dagger plunged deeply into his abdomen.

The merchants are all shrewd; even if the Divine Beast Realm truly collapsed, they'd never neglect to show them respect or fail to send a guide—this delay was purely their own fault, and they'd come looking for them soon enough.

After receiving Jia Yimei's message—"Don't let Ye Hao know I came"—Yuan Meiqing immediately used her cultivation to mask all odors in the office; ironically, this only made their connection more obvious.

Ye Hao couldn't help nodding; Jia Yimei was tall and had fair, delicate skin, perfect for a white long dress—she'd look ethereal, like a celestial being.

Upon hearing Ye Hao's words, someone immediately voiced dissatisfaction; some even prepared to attack him. They had come here to attend the grand gathering, and for Ye Hao to ask them to abandon it was utterly unacceptable.

Soon after, a servant brought two portions of tsampa and butter tea. The tsampa, like a rustic pastry, had a peculiar taste, but the two ate it anyway.

He never imagined such a wonder could exist in this world; Shang Yu could hardly believe his eyes.

The death penalty was severe, but for the vast majority of ordinary miners who hadn't even cultivated internal energy, it was merely a rebirth.

After a moment, perhaps because Shi Dazhu recognized his hometown and shouted for his father, disrupting the vision, the mirage slowly faded, then vanished as if blown away by the wind.

Of course, this didn't apply to Jingtu City, for its outer walls were protected by a dense layer of electric fencing; with such a modern defense system, no one could possibly scale the walls to breach the city.

Jian Liang smiled: "We ran out of salt at home, so the meat in the pot was too bland—I came to borrow some from the chessboard." The onlookers burst into laughter.

As the column marched forward, a dozen horsemen suddenly galloped up from ahead. At close range, Fang Guohuan recognized Hong Jinshan and the three former sect masters—Liu, Qi, and Ma—along with some of their subordinates. Hong Jinshan and the others first paid formal respects to Lian Qiying and Sun Qi; seeing Fang Guohuan among them, they all smiled and waved in greeting.

Da Fei prepared to rise, but Liu Xiao pressed him down, signaling him to stay put and observe Hua Wei's movements first.

"He was just in the courtyard; he must have stepped outside to stretch his limbs. His injuries are still fresh, so he needs movement. Please allow Wei Bi to go search for him." Wei Bi knelt on the ground, his eyes strangely fixed on the cane that Gao Yu had discarded.
