Chapter 59

"As long as it is a living creature, I can absorb its power, provided that it is not too strong. Otherwise, I cannot absorb it, and I might be beaten to death before I even get the chance," I replied.

"Well, now that the item has been delivered, this servant will head back first. Old Madame still needs people to wait on her," Panxia said, then curtsied to Ansheng.

The maid wanted to say something, but seeing that Lu Zheng's expression seemed quite grim, she ultimately didn't dare to speak. She took the cotton handkerchief with both hands, curtsied timidly, and murmured an acknowledgment.

However, because of the various banquets during the New Year festival, everyone had already eaten their fill of delicacies from land and sea and were actually somewhat too full to eat much more. Therefore, after merely touching their chopsticks to a few dishes, they spent most of their time offering festive blessings or engaging in idle chatter.

Upon hearing Lin Yidao's command, the numerous defense team members answered in succession, their expressions alert as they watched the surrounding situation. At the slightest sign of trouble, they would immediately open fire.

Yuan Han was utterly enraged to the point of exploding. "I'll kill you!" His mecha immediately let out a buzzing sound. He directly tore off his left hand, which had lost all power, raised his completely reddened sickle with a single hand, and dozens of light beams pierced forward like needles.

"Luo Tianwang, did you see that just now? The Three Origin Emperor manifested his divine spirit at the main hall. I saw it with my own eyes. The bells kept ringing without stop. Even when the wind was stronger than this in the past, they never rang so fiercely. And those bell sounds seemed as if they had been recorded beforehand," Zheng Kaihang said excitedly.

I roughly gauged the speed at which the walls were retracting. There were probably about thirty seconds left before those walls would crush me flat.

"Going today definitely won't work. The boss's apples are all sold out. When I go back, I'll talk to him and have him stock up on more," Shen Ying said.

Princess Wang smiled as she watched this ill-fated yet deeply affectionate couple, saying nothing as she turned and walked back into the cabin. She could feel the aching sorrow in Yangyan's heart at the moment, and she could also understand Wuwei's state of mind right then.

After spending three days in such blissful harmony, an uninvited guest suddenly arrived at the Prince Xian Residence. This person was none other than Shangguan Xue'er. When Shangguan Xue'er found Ao Tianqi, she happened to see Nangong Yi'er feeding him medicinal broth. This scene completely provoked Shangguan Xue'er.

"What prophecy?" Ye Tian crossed his arms, cast a sideways glance at Ye Yun, and asked her with dissatisfaction, clearly very angry about what had just happened.

The Sirius tribe's supply convoy had finally entered the ambush circle. The procession of five hundred wagons was exceedingly long, carrying many more people than the original intelligence indicated. Now, they could only wipe out a portion of the supplies.

Upon hearing this, Yongyong felt his head swell. He had originally thought Huangfu Song was an old stubborn fool who would never agree to accept a surrender, so he hadn't dared to mention it to him. As soon as Huangfu Song left, he eagerly discussed it with Zhu Jun, only to be flatly rejected by this fellow as well.

On the return journey to Youzhou, while passing through Shanggu Commandery, Yongyong and his men saw refugees fleeing along the road and terrified Youzhou commoners. Yongyong deduced that Zhang Jiao had already launched an uprising, and upon dismounting to make inquiries, he confirmed that the Yellow Turban rebellion had indeed broken out.

A low, magnetic voice resounded in the spacious area, and its echo lingered for a long time, refusing to disperse for quite a while.

At this time, the Administrator of Liaodong, Yang Zhong, had already been killed by Zhang Ju, and the imperial court had not yet sent a new administrator. For Yongyong, this was undoubtedly an exceptional opportunity. Therefore, on one hand, Yongyong sent orders to Li Shi in Luoyang to quickly bribe Zhang Rang, and on the other hand, he marched into Liaodong under the pretext of suppressing the rebellion.

On one side of the lobby was a grand seventeenth-century Carrara marble double spiral staircase, leading up to VIP rooms playing various gambling games. The entire VIP gaming area was a separate zone, completely segregated from the hotel casino on the other side. This was a paradise for the wealthy, a veritable money-sink where ordinary gamblers could hardly set foot.

"This... this is just too extravagant," Mother Luo stammered, tongue-tied. In terms of weight, craftsmanship, and design, this set of hair ornaments and jewelry could be considered top-grade. Although she liked it in her heart, it was hardly suitable for her status.

She heard Le Man on the phone asking someone to find a plot of land in the Nanwan Flower Sea area, the closer to the flower sea, the better.

"You two, the authorities are taking this tour bus rollover incident very seriously. Both of you are heroes who showed great civic courage. Is there anything you'd like to say?" the reporter asked.

Molu's shouts made the bishop somewhat impatient. He walked up to Molu, reached out, and sharply struck Molu's chin. Molu instantly lost his ability to move, his body going limp and paralyzed.

Although there was only a row of candles in between, if I kept the back of my phone facing the young master, he shouldn't be able to peek. Moreover, I had set up a barrier against ghosts within the magical array; without my permission, the old security guard had no way of directly entering my magical array.

Li Er was still quite satisfied with Li Chengqian's extermination of Xueyantuo, as it was enough to prove that he, the crown prince, had good judgment.

After the two entered the consultation room, the doctor briefly examined them and then dismissed them, saying it was untreatable and telling them to try elsewhere.

Xie Donglin glanced at Zhang Ze, who gave him a calm look without showing the slightest reaction.

Of course, she, Princess Gaoyang, had agreed to her eldest brother Li Chengqian mainly to spend more time away from Fangyilai, so that she wouldn't have to face his face when she went back.

Even after being beaten, the dark-complexioned young man showed an utterly submissive demeanor, terrified that Yang Yi might strike even harder.

Fortunately, the Exploration No. 1 armored vehicle carrying supplies was equipped with inflatable airbags that could serve as a bathtub. When taken out, an inflatable airbag was only as big as a biscuit tin. These airbags were made of special materials with excellent flexibility, resistance to damage, and the ability to withstand high temperatures of over a hundred degrees.

The auction was not going to start for a little while yet, so everyone was currently in a hall of over three hundred square meters, with a row of tables set up alongside offering a buffet where guests could help themselves freely.

The others also fell into deep thought. Although they had heard rumors before coming, seeing it in reality still felt somewhat preposterous.

The main thing was that the other two corpses had left too few traces of this sort, or rather, they were too eager to make people notice that superficial layer. If I had been able to calm myself down, I definitely would have discovered something.

Clusters of mental power swarmed forward. One Day in Autumn had flowing hair and a ferocious expression, desperately trying to control the scalpel.

They were arguing again. Everyone looked at each other, covered their ears, and hurriedly fled this war-torn world, leaving the territory to the two of them.

To the east and north of the cliff were abysses forty to fifty meters deep, while the south was a rock face leading toward the mountaintop.
