Chapter 56: Sister Returns Home

Ning Lu still politely declined Zeng Zihao's invitation, using the excuse that she had been rather busy lately.

Lu Yanfeng arranged for someone to pick up Ning Lu and bring her to the restaurant. By the time she arrived, he was already seated inside waiting for her.

"Have you been waiting long?" Ning Lu asked softly.

"Not at all, I just got here a moment ago." Lu Yanfeng smiled.

Lu Yanfeng gave...

He Lang emerged from the water. Having soaked in it for an entire night, the soles of his feet felt soft and weak as he swayed toward his clothes to get dressed.

One has to admit, that single glance from Bai Jianli startled Zhao Qingchen profoundly. The murderous intent in those eyes was no joke; even a bloodthirsty bandit would not possess such terrifying malice. Yet, the moment Bai Jianli shifted his demeanor, that murderous aura vanished completely, leaving Zhao Qingchen thoroughly shaken by the sheer weight of it in such a pious man.

I said nothing and shook my head, unsure of how to respond. My heart remained plagued by a lingering sense of emptiness and uncertainty.

"Replying to Your Majesty, Her Ladyship has been troubled by anxious thoughts these past few days, and upon waking this morning, her temper was exceptionally fierce. She refused to let anyone serve by her side and drove all of us out..." Qiu Ling's tone sounded rather aggrieved.

Both Su sisters were a mixture of bashful and delighted, sitting down and exchanging smiles. Gongxi Wanwan, meanwhile, kept cheering and egging them on, while Qing Yuzi smiled warmly as she stroked Su Yu's hair.

The instant that ugly, dark-faced fiend unleashed his soul-condensing aura, Zhang Mo sensed it. He quickly sidestepped to evade it, then immediately prepared to launch an even more ferocious assault against the azure qilin.

Yet, nothing could be undone now. One could either quietly accept the outcome or quietly bide their time for an opportunity to strike back.

The moment she lifted her leg, there was a heavy thud, and her forehead collided hard against the stone wall. In an instant, Gongxi Wanwan vanished. Regaining her senses, Lin Yin found herself still shrouded in pitch-black darkness. There was no sign of Ren Cheng, nor any trace of Gongxi Wanwan. Unable to care about the blood trickling from her injured forehead, she clutched the stone wall and wept bitterly in anguish.

Amidst my lingering sense of loss, I seemed to hear the sound of a key sliding into a lock, followed by the opening of the bedroom door. My attention was instantly riveted to the entrance.

He pulled on the rope in his hand, and a mass of wax-like oil swiftly flew out from it, directly sealing Jiang Chen's alms bowl.

Then, someone at the banquet began telling adult jokes. The first to speak was a man whose appearance carried a rather wretched and vulgar air.

Ling Ruohua raised her hand in an attempt to resist, but the two men exerted immense strength, pinning her down and forcing her to remain seated obediently.

Upon hearing Song Luanyi utter those words, Yan Luoxi felt a sense of utter disbelief, which was swiftly followed by an irrepressible surge of fury.

His entire focus right now was on observation; he was genuinely eager to witness how highway robbery was actually carried out back in ancient times.

In other words, the cultivation world had entered a quasi-declining age. The Heavenly Dao had collapsed, with the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands each claiming a half, leaving insufficient and powerful laws to bear the weight of so many supreme powerhouses.

In a place beyond Liunian's sight, Huang Shanshan's face was completely devoid of its innocent and romantic expression, replaced entirely by hatred and malice.

"You're going to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow. I won't leave until the results come out!" No matter what, Qi Yu was determined to get to the bottom of it.

Immediately thereafter, Lin Yifang and his party stepped into the silent research facility. Once bright and high-tech, the institute now loomed in the darkness like the gaping maw of a monstrous beast, swallowing Lin Yifang and the others as they slowly advanced into its depths.

Once Yun Shan entered cultivation, streams of the celestial forces of the Five Elements poured into his body, continuously deepening his comprehension of the Five Elements. Of course, the Five Elements he comprehended were not mere rules, but the primordial laws themselves. Beneath the universe realm, any cultivation manual practiced by cultivators was derived from branches of these fundamental laws.

"Zhang Liao, commander of the Xuanwu Cavalry, and Zhang He, commander of the White Tiger Cavalry, pay their respects to the military strategist." As Guo Jia stepped down from the carriage, the two great generals stepped forward and bowed to speak. Behind them, flanked by black on the left and white on the right, stood several thousand imposing and formidable cavalry soldiers, all of whom had already dismounted.
