Chapter 263: An Umbrella

Wei Qiulan's life was unbearable; as a child, her parents favored sons over daughters and never liked her—she was always the ignored one, and whether she was in the family or not made no real difference.

So from a young age, she longed to escape this home, but as a child, she lacked the ability and could only wait patiently for adulthood; at fourteen, she could no longer endure her family and chose to run away.

At the time, she truly felt the world was vast and open, the sky boundless, birds free to fly.

Although she hated Zhang Fan with all her heart, at this moment, she couldn't help recalling every small thing he had ever done for her.

The one who spoke was naturally Hao Bai—he merely reached out and gestured lightly, and the Heaven-Binding Chain, which had been in Yun Yi's hands, flew into his own.

When classmates met after a long separation, they mostly spoke of old memories; memories among classmates were always simple, but so much had changed over the years.

Liu Xie felt deeply wronged, as if he had suffered an unjust calamity; for the first time, he thought that being too charming could itself be a sin.

He gazed at the scattered lanterns in the city, unconsciously contrasting them with the colorful neon lights of the future; suddenly, a question occurred to him: this world had no electricity, and this camera, besides Chen Guanxi and himself, was unusable by anyone—if someone found it, they wouldn't even know what it was.

Outside the palace, many foreign envoys dressed in strange attire had gathered at dawn at the Zhuque Gate, negotiating with the Feathered Forest Guards, requesting entry to meet the emperor.

Bai Feng turned and growled low at Chang Hui, as if asking what he wanted, then stared coldly at him.

The Prisoner Cage Array, also called the Prison Dragon Array, was a technique that inflicted a thousand wounds on the enemy but lost eight hundred of its own strength—the higher the cultivator's level, the more severely they were suppressed.

Li Yunqi couldn't touch him anyway; a fight would only drain some stamina, but if he could win Zhang Fan's favor, this was definitely a win.

Yin Ming let out a bitter laugh; beside him, Xue Ji, upon hearing this, seemed to understand and began giggling.

With Henei as a buffer, if Dong Zhuo launched troops without authorization, it would inevitably trigger a second coalition against him.

Many people, including Yang Xu, who had defected to Liu Bian alongside Xiahou Lan, eventually bowed to Dong Zhuo after enduring many events.

Sometimes, life is simply unpredictable; ever since Chen Ya abandoned me, I've forced myself not to fall for anyone. I buried all my emotions deep within, unsure if this was right, but I could only do it this way.

I don't know what He Yulu thinks—she is the person I love most; she walked with me under the sunset, and I felt I had become the happiest man alive—that became my dream.

Coincidentally, Yu Zhengran of the Yu household was also off duty today, holding a secret report in hand, while Master Yu sat across from him, sipping tea calmly.

The moment Luo Bei uttered his first character, two invisible great arrays seemed to collide and explode violently in the sky; everyone on Luo Bei's side felt the pressure lift instantly, no longer affected by Xuan Wu's voice.

Upon hearing Bing Zhuyun's cry, Luo Bei's heart immediately sparked the same thought.

When I stumbled into Ning Meixuan's bedroom, dumbfounded, I hadn't even spoken a word before Yan Zi hurled a pillow at me and drove me out.

Yan Yiyao gave Su Qing a warning glance; Su Qing looked indignant. Yan Xi and Li Zhenting said nothing more, bid them farewell, and left together.

But Ye Ming had no mood to admire the scene now; he clenched his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, as if ready to explode at any moment.

"Wife, why are you pulling up your collar? Lower it a bit—let me see again," Leng Yeqing coaxed.

In their minds, Zhou Tianwang might have revealed some divine technique, but his true body remained within the Xuan Alliance.
