Chapter 318

"Aaaahhhhh!"

Inside a luxury hotel room.

The trendy kid’s eyes were vacant and dull, yet his mouth continuously emitted agonized screams.

A wretched sound only heard during New Year pig slaughters.

Naturally, this commotion startled the suited man from the bedroom, who came out to investigate.

But in just those few short seconds,

the trendy kid, holding the jade pendant controlling the [Yellow Millet Pillow], grew even more bizarre.

When he arrived at the Great Warehouse, Mi Zhu was sitting under a patch of tree shade fanning himself, occasionally gulping down water in large swallows—clearly exhausted from the journey. Zhang Ren stepped forward to greet him but first carefully surveyed the square: there were many vehicles and goods, and roughly two hundred saddleless horses, likely just purchased.

This batch of high-quality treasures included two million purple-jade Xuanwu stones and one million purple-jade Huaxu stones. To enhance his mage’s strength, Long Chen, as usual, split them evenly, ending up with forty thousand Xuanwu stones and twenty thousand Huaxu stones.

If so, the tree folk’s natural energy would eventually be exhausted, and the ultimate fate awaiting Long Chen’s group would be death.

Jing Qi took three steps forward and reached Su Yang, snatching the paper from his hands and lowering his head to read it.

Dressed in a gown as white as an immortal’s, she radiated pure, untainted celestial aura; her delicate face looked like carved jade, her graceful figure half-revealed beneath the flowing robes, her slightly fluttering ear-hair and bangs stirring the heart, evoking an involuntary sense of admiration.

Zhang Baifeng’s agreed meeting place was Baishi Town in Xiangxi. Here, they would settle their martial contest to determine the next leader of the Jianghu after Ye Huan.

Moreover, this time Long Chen didn’t even wait for the blue-clad man to act—he extended his right hand like lightning, grasping the air toward the blue-clad man.

The newcomer was of course Gu Nan. Facing such an attack, he showed no surprise, only sighed in relief. The gap between native transcendants and Star Universe transcendants was indeed real.

The Princess Consort mistakenly believed Jiang Yun’s second white hair had grown from missing her; if she learned it was due to worry over the Chichiweizhangde bear gall price, she’d likely slap the back of Jiang Yun’s head.

During this time, the Great Qin Empire had uncovered the fact that Zhang’s ancestral ancestor had once obstructed Qiancheng Liran, and had informed Su Yang of it. Thus, Su Yang’s hatred, besides the Li Kingdom Marquis family, fell most heavily on the Zhang family.

Xin Zhu froze, unsure what had happened. Only then did she realize—the Empress’s health had always been frail, and since giving birth to the Crown Prince, it had grown even weaker. Now, asking the Empress to bear another child, a sister or brother for the Crown Prince, was surely… At this thought, Xin Zhu immediately knelt down.

Chu Fei sometimes wanted to beat the Dragon Emperor Sword senseless—it had no sense of loyalty as a master’s weapon and often argued with Chu Fei. But the Dragon Emperor Sword’s power was undeniable; Chu Fei, despite his annoyance, could do nothing about it.

Chu Fei felt a chill run down his back—he had long known insects and ant-beasts in nature fed on living creatures, but seeing one for real still sent a shiver of dread through him.

At Chu Huan Dong’s home in Shicheng, looking out the window, the sky was bluish-gray, heavy with clouds, cold and gloomy; yet inside the Chu family mansion’s parlor, the temperature was comfortable, filled with laughter and chatter.

Feng Jiuyou’s cold, steady gaze made her scalp numb, but Ruan Mianmian deliberately ignored it. Only after her emotions fully calmed did she meet Feng Jiuyou’s cold gaze again.

The Blood Sect members were also secretly startled, but remembering their overwhelming numbers and that the enemy had only sent three ancient relics, they believed it wouldn’t fundamentally alter the situation.
