Volume 1, Chapter 31: Changing Her Dressings

Princess Yaohua did not expect to walk in on the two of them embracing; her gaze pierced Ruan Liuzheng like a sharp sword.

Ruan Liuzheng straightened her posture immediately and knelt down.

Chi Xia curled his lips into a smile, walked downstairs, and stepped into the night. The late spring and early summer breeze carried a gentle, refreshing chill.

Zhong Wan suddenly thought of his icy demeanor and wondered if he would be willing to help Ding Feng reincarnate.

At the research institute, Lin Feng and Agou handed the two large bags of red fruit directly to Gong Yongliang.

Therefore, even though Lin Zhonglong and Xie Baoping were reluctant, Jiang Mo made up her mind and notified Cui Pingshun to come for the tryouts.

Zombies swarmed toward them from all directions once again, and the battle resumed. Lin Feng and the others fought as if they were tireless, becoming braver with every strike.

However, none of that mattered much anymore. They had to go out searching for food every day; over the past month, the entire city of Yanjing had been picked clean.

After finishing everything, a loud crash echoed from downstairs, clearly caused by the main gate being forced open. By now, the entire corridor was completely blocked, and the zombies obviously could not make it up.

Because Ye Yifan did not possess such immortal treasures, he could only practice in his own way to forge his own laws.

In a deeper calculation, Zhang Shan realized that whatever Lu Meiqi had brought back from the underground market was likely very useful to the mysterious person.

"Ma Zhongyuan, you are truly vicious. I shall meet you head-on!" Priest Chen suddenly shouted, his voice filled with indignation. As he spoke, he leaped up, stepping directly onto the shoulders of a mountain specter as he charged toward me.

I had someone fetch ink that could vanish once dry, and I recopied the secret manuals of "The Dragon Soaring to the Nine Heavens" and "The Phoenix Flying in Harmony" onto parchment. The content remained largely the same, except for modifying some key acupoints and timing, while also removing the warnings against suffering a cultivation deviation.

Wu Changguo belonged to the faction of Mayor Jiang Qinwei. In this clash between the two major factions, their goal was to protect Qin Yan at all costs and pin the blame on Han Junhua.

He opened the brocade box to reveal a new ring. The diamond was not particularly large, but the craftsmanship was exceptionally exquisite.

Cutting palace expenses was nothing new. During the time of the late emperor, the State of Qin was not very wealthy, and there were many wars on the borders. Empress Dowager Sun, who was the Empress at the time, would often lead the concubines in donating money and goods to the soldiers at the front lines, and even sewed cotton-padded clothes by hand.

Yun Duo looked up and glanced at Pei Yijin, afraid that if he saw such a photo at this moment, it would cause trouble.

Jin Hengyuan analyzed the situation calmly, his rational gaze scrutinizing Yi Ye, who looked gloomy but offered no defense.

"Twenty million to help me investigate something." Cheng Xinrou was at her wit's end. She had approached many people, all of whom claimed to have no leads, though in reality, they were simply unwilling to help.

Moreover, efforts put on solely for show would eventually be exposed one day, but the struggles one truly endures will transform into nourishment, genuinely fueling one's growth.

"Seven o'clock tonight, everyone on the team who wants to come is welcome! If you eat me into poverty, you'll be happy!" Director Feng Gang put on a rare, exaggerated performance, and everyone was supportive, giving him a thumbs-up and praising his generosity.

Who else could it be but Yin Yi, the Master of the Silver Profound Hall, who had fled by ascending after being heavily wounded by him all those years ago?

PS: I'm too lazy to think of names. If any brothers want to appear as minor characters, you can leave your names in the character suggestion thread in the comment section or in the chapter comments. Whenever I need names in the future, I'll pull them from there.

Long-buried memories surfaced one by one; for so long, he had refused to touch them.
