Chapter 188

"What? Do Zi'er and the Prince always run into things like this?" Murong Ying looked at her with keen curiosity.

He always gave people the impression of cold aloofness; strangers assumed he was unapproachable and hard to get along with.

"Cough, cough." He deliberately coughed to alert them, thinking it would work, but was simply ignored by the deeply affectionate man.

Her gaze occasionally flickered toward Yang Yifan, then settled on the Blood Shadow Spear beside him.

He was almost trading blows with the Yecha Sage—the Void Fire showed no mercy, harming him as well.

Though he loathed and despised Ye Hanxuan, seeing his current state of agony, Chunhu Yao Fu still felt a pang of pity.

The Confucians who sensed the celestial Emperor Star flickering could not calculate anything about him, no matter how they used divination arts.

Everyone knew the Emperor's kitchen had plenty of delicious food, though it was late now, the imperial chefs had all gone home, and the imperial kitchen was locked.

As they prepared to depart, Chunhu Yao Fu saw Yi Bin's face—identical to her own—smiling at her, a smile without regret or resentment.

When you press your body against the stone wall, the only thing you can do is shift sideways and adjust your state to its peak; don't expect anyone to fully help you—in this environment, survival depends entirely on yourself.

"How about this? If you finish your business and have time tonight, come over for dinner." Chen Lan thought for a moment and said.

"Director Huang, you're in construction materials— I don't think we'll ever have a chance to collaborate," Chen Lan politely declined.

Tears still streamed down her face; Xu Yuan struggled to move, pulling Li Junxiu's arms around her from behind, staring at those tightly shut phoenix eyes—Xu Yuan felt her heart ache in a way she never expected.

A loud "Bang!"—the door was suddenly burst open from outside; a servant rushed in, panting, making Chu Jian jerk his hand and knock over the teacup, spilling tea everywhere and soaking the ledger on the table.

The last time Li Junxiu had a seizure, it seemed triggered by the smell of ginger—because that bowl of brown sugar water had contained ginger; Xu Yuan hadn't realized it then, but later she figured it out.

"You fucking pervert, ugly bastard, I'll blow you to hell!" Ling Feng screamed wildly, pulling out the last three Thunder Pearls from his storage ring and hurling them at Yin Xiaotian behind him.

When Feng Bao San burst into the Feng family's front courtyard, Feng Shaoming was seated on his bed, meditating in lotus position; startled by Feng Bao San's shout, he was already furious at being interrupted during cultivation—now Feng Bao San had dared to attack Fei Yan, and Feng Shaoming was enraged.

"Don't listen to your master's nonsense—come, sit down and try my homemade wine." Saying this, the Mo Men Patriarch gestured for Shen Muyu to sit across from him.

But what puzzled Lin Liang was that as the auction was about to begin, many of the second-floor private rooms remained empty—had those people decided not to attend at all?

"Stop talking shit—fight if you're going to fight." With that, he pulled two peach-wood daggers from his waist and charged at Old Man Cao.

Yue Mu Chang Xi understood at once; her slender hand swept out, and nine moons emerged from the sea, their silver discs instantly expanding like nine bright moons illuminating the Western Array. Beneath the nine moons, Qi Lin roared, unleashing all four Yin and four Yang forces; the Heaven-Heaven, Earth-Earth Escape Technique surged forward, and he plunged into the Western Pillar.

"Today is my great joyous day; all of you here are my longtime friends, and I am deeply honored you've come. Soon, a great figure will arrive—Hu San Taiye, I'm sure you're all familiar—he is my wife's family!"

Zhou Qing in the car instantly recognized the familiar micro-pickup approaching from afar; before Han Ke could reach him, he stepped forward to meet it.

The Heaven and Earth Meridians are the most vital channels in the body, the conduits through which all other meridians flow; only when these two meridians are unblocked do the others function properly. Even if every other meridian is open, if the Heaven and Earth Meridians remain blocked, their effect remains negligible—this shows their critical importance.

"Then it's settled—drink it. If you truly have no alien qi, I'll vouch for you—I guarantee the Emperor will marry his princess to you." The Fat Man spoke with full confidence.

"Not at all, not at all—I'm thrilled to be here!" Sun Yanjie laughed happily, and the group walked out of the airport terminal together.

Hearing the white-haired elder say this, Su Huai suddenly felt he recognized the old man—he had indeed seen a stone statue on Chiya Peak when he got lost, and it looked nearly identical to this man.

"What?" Qin Ouzhen blinked, seemingly unable to believe Zhao Jingwen would say something so rejecting.

He Lan Yuer watched this scene from afar, grinding her teeth and stomping her foot in rage. That morning, the Emperor had visited her, hinting subtly that she must not let Su Qing return to North Chu; she blamed him for breaking his word, but he turned around and said that if He Lan Yuer could strengthen his throne, she might consider driving Su Qing away.

These people rolling down were clearly not the ones who launched the hidden weapons—only an extremely skilled expert could have generated such force.

He was right just now—the Nangong Consortium has not yet reached the point of total collapse, where trees fall and monkeys scatter.

This cave also connected to a natural underground cavern, whose scenery was wondrous: stalactites hung from the ceiling in bizarre shapes, some terrifying, like demons with sharp fangs.

Gu Su Can Yue had a moment where she truly believed Gu Su Haoyue had ended his life—her eyes held confusion and doubt, yet also a faint trace of mockery. If… if dying by his hand wasn't so bad.

Ye Qianluo slowly tightened her grip on the box in her hand; if she was right, this bracelet was fake.

Qin Qiao'er dared not meet Liang Chenyue's gaze, sobbing softly; Liang Chenyue gripped her fingers so tightly her nails sank into her flesh, crimson blood slowly trickling out, mixing with Liang Chenyue's own blood—suddenly, the entire room grew thick with the stench of blood.

Although Sand Hidden is now allied with Konoha, they've clashed with Konoha in nearly every Great Ninja War, so their signature puppet techniques and magnetic Dun are taught even at the Ninja Academy.
