Chapter 149: Schemes Abound, Frost Silkworms Freeze Ice

~4 min read 795 words

Zhao Ti sat on the Black Rose; the horse, knowing it was heading home, grew lazy.

The great eagle hung in a basket beside the horse, curiously eyeing everything outside.

Its injuries had improved greatly, but it still could not fly, though leaping and running were no longer a problem.

After prolonged contact with the eagle, Zhao Ti found it seemed quite different from what Yelu Hongji and the others had said.

Yelu Hongji and the others claimed the eagle had just reached adulthood, yet after these days of contact, Zhao Ti felt it did not appear to be fully grown.

Just as Lin Ke stared blankly at the statues of the Three Celestial Masters, letting his mind wander, the Daoist Priest in charge of reception quietly withdrew and fetched the abbot of Qingyun Temple, the True Man Jingxu, to welcome this distinguished guest whose aura made him dare not speak.

In a short while, the three arrived at the stairwell, but as the elevator doors opened, they happened to run into Xiang Kun returning.

If it were not for pursuing Nash's sister, Paley would never have tolerated Nash repeatedly slapping his face.

At first, Xu Hui did not pay much attention to He Xiao's words, but as she listened, she sensed something was amiss. She looked at Ji Siming; Ji Siming was intently dealing with the food on his plate, not even raising his head. Xu Hui grew somewhat unwilling; was this not clearly looking for trouble?

If Song Yue's words were spread abroad, what would happen if people heard them and refused to do business? Or if it caused other merchants to harbor grievances against them, how great a loss would that cause?

However, fools are ultimately a minority; just now, most people had not said anything bad, and some simply did not care about Zhou Qing at all.

Of course, since it had come to this, she could only remain tacitly understanding, keeping a stiff face and saying no more.

The Ye Arrow Technique could be fully utilized; for instance, instead of a head-on sniper duel, one could hide within super-dense fog and, using the silent and imperceptible nature of the Ye Arrow Technique, carry out sneak attacks.

Even the neighboring relatives, who were also rivals, mocked Old Man Song for having no brain, sweeping a golden ingot out of the house, while the rest of the Song family kept their heads down and said nothing.

"Big Flower Cat, you provoked me," Mu Dasha said coldly. With a thought, he activated the nine drops of Blood of Opening Heaven; in an instant, a powerful force filled Mu Xifeng's entire body.

After all, it was a twenty-year-old body; even if he understood nothing, it still needed release.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Ye Yaoguang set out with Wen Tingzhan and the two Wei Jing brothers. To avoid letting the villagers know and worry, they deliberately took a detour to enter the forest.

"Mother must have sent me these two life-saving skills because she was worried about me? I must study them seriously and diligently." Zhang Zhaorong clenched her fist and declared firmly.

The common people of Haicheng were stunned by Qin Wansha's wealthy dowry; those who had previously spoken sourly, claiming Ren Qing'er was selling herself, all fell silent.

Thus, this entire match was experienced by Lu's father and mother in a state of inexplicable pride.

Afterwards, Wen Tingzhan took Ye Yaoguang to govern various places, leading to a great deal of busyness. Secular matters and non-secular matters filled his life, leaving no leisure time for him to properly reflect on these things.

Li Weifeng drove an empty carriage to the outskirts of Jingcheng. In a deserted place, he connected the space-time gate linked to the porcelain vat. However, Han Nuo did not come over with hostile intent; instead, he tossed over two large bundles, then leisurely passed through from another world to stand beside the eldest brother of the Li family.

At this moment, Qin Wansha suddenly fluttered her eyelids, thinking, "Perhaps I should open my eyes now, to startle that monarch, and also to see if he is truly the person I am looking for."

"No, one or two sentences cannot explain it clearly; you just need to know I am a pure Earthling," Xiya explained lazily.

Over these years, having gone through so many things, she also believed she had forgotten the reality that she had once borne resentment and hatred toward Prefect Lou.

Without finding anyone to confirm her current location, having a nautical chart was useless; she still could not reach Sakura Island! Compared to the last expedition to sweep the Bat Cave beyond the frontier, this training journey to the East Sea was far more difficult.
