Chapter 41

Not only does he possess the supreme bloodline of the dragon race, but he is also under the protection of the True Ancestor of Heavenly Demons. Even the Thunder-Swallowing True Ancestor, who has lived through a reincarnation, shares a profound connection with him.

Let alone the fact that they were the ones who initiated the challenge against Xu Qiu in the first place. Now that he has put it this way, what reason do they have not to strike?

With his right hand gently swaying a feathered fan and his left hand lightly patting the beauty in his arms to offer comfort, he raised his chin slightly and looked down at Gu Han below.

At this point, Song Yuanla seemed to have already seen the Mount Tai stone radiating a powerful aura behind Jiang Hanning, as if the fortune of the entire world was converging toward him.

After hesitating for a long time, a military officer who looked like a commander from the Infantry Division walked over, his eyes filled with resentment and accusation.

Luo Wanxing pursed her lips. Although Xie Nanlin's posture seemed lowered at the moment, yet... yet, perhaps because this man was accustomed to keeping everything under his control, despite such a humble stance, Luo Wanxing still felt imprisoned by him, with nowhere to escape.

However, Luo Anxue was truly formidable. Even after he had 'cried' to such an extent, Jiang Xiulan still defended her.

Seeing that Zhao Xiaoqian's expression had softened somewhat, the cook breathed a sigh of relief. But when Zhao Xiaoqian cast a glance at him, his expression turned cold again, and he kicked the cook right in the backside.

Nor did she believe that the other party would be so kind as to share the intelligence of the so-called Central Continent Secret Realm with them.

Luo Qinglian spread her arms, stepping directly in front of Ye Qingyun to forcefully halt Luo Xiaotian's movement.

Lan Ziyue pulled Lan Yiyi into her embrace with a heart full of anguish, knowing that once Yiyi was afflicted with the Withered Beasts poison, her entire body would become powerless.

Xuanyuan Jing had stayed at the Prince Gong's Mansion for quite a while previously, but aside from being familiar with Xuanyuan Che, he rarely interacted with the other cousins, including Xuanyuan Xiu, merely greeting them when they met and occasionally dining at the same table. Therefore, seeing Xuanyuan Jing squeeze into the sedan chair with such unreserved familiarity, everyone could not help but be momentarily stunned.

"Mother, Yiyi is all better now. As for how Yiyi got better, I'll tell Mother later." Lan Yiyi beamed with a radiant smile and shouted to Lan Ziyue.

Lin Ruoyu was, after all, an executive of a large corporation and someone in a position of authority; she was always able to keep the overall situation in mind. Seeing the awkward atmosphere, she immediately brought up official business to divert everyone's attention.

Upon closer reflection, wasn't the birth time of the fourth prince, Xuanyuan Bin, roughly around the time Xuanyuan Che returned from the northwest? And not long after that, the Princess Consort of Gong passed away. Could it be... that the Qin family did something that literally angered the Princess Consort to death?

Without needing Mama Rong to speak up specifically, Su Jinghui was already prepared to take only Mother Zuo into the palace, leaving Mama Rong behind to look after the courtyard.

Wang Siru watched Nian Pingchong compromise with a face full of delighted smiles, and with dainty steps, she followed closely behind him.

Lu Liye laughed, his phoenix-like eyes glistening as if studded with brilliant stars. The next instant, he lowered his head and gently kissed Xiang Qing's red lips.

She still remembered coming out of the River of Forgetfulness and discovering that Yun Qinnuan had not taken the Manjushahuahua, and the series of complex expressions on Lu Yan's face: starting from shock, turning to anger, and finally dissolving into a wicked and eerie smile.

"Go and see if Old He and Old Xiang are done with their work. Once they are finished, have them come over," Xue Changlin said to his personal guard.

"Envoy Lord, we have investigated Director Jun's matter for many years without finding the slightest clue. However, Yuqin has recently uncovered a trace of a lead!" the First Prince said.

"What do you mean?" Fang Yihua frowned, hurriedly signaling with her eyes that she shouldn't stir up extra complications at this moment.

That very day, Xixi and I boarded a train heading to Guangxi, because the old monk had said that by traveling all the way west, we would be able to find the demonic fetus.

Jiang Chen muttered to himself, then truly summarized his gains while once again reviewing his past experiences, evaluating his own actions to understand himself and recognize both his strengths and weaknesses.

"Lord Yuan Xiao! People have slapped us right at our doorstep, and we are just going to watch like this?" Yuan Wei said with a shocked and resentful expression.

During the Southern Emperor's period of seclusion, Sima Miaomeng had always managed the affairs of the Southern Immortal Emperor's Manor and was thoroughly familiar with everything within it. Yet, the ordeal that the Southern Immortal Emperor's Manor was now about to face left her deeply unsettled.

Everything was ready, save for the boss personally donning the red lion costume to finish shooting the rearranged scenes before everyone scattered and headed to Florence.

If this truly was a trapping array, it was one capable of enclosing a Golden Core cultivator—surely no ordinary formation.

Having said that, I took the initiative to press closer to Zhang Mingrao, interlocking my fingers with his. I didn't know what I was trying to prove to myself; I only felt that before our side had even confirmed we were breaking up, someone had already climbed all over our heads to provoke me, ambiguously boasting about how close she and Zhang Mingrao were. Only a fool would tolerate such behavior.

Upon returning to the imperial capital, Sizhen was still immersed in the sorrow of worrying for her brother and Sun Yanling when she heard the major news.

Upon hearing this, the four men instantly swallowed hard, and the look in their eyes filled Chen Mohan with dread.

He had once asked her, though only once, with a gentle smile on his lips and dark, unblinking eyes fixed upon her: "Mu Qing, what was your life like before?"

He was a notoriously famous underground street racing expert in North Sea, yet tonight he had unexpectedly been double-crossed.

I muttered inwardly to myself: "When is 'someday'? I only know that there are many neighbors who recognize me in the building where I live, and I certainly don't want them to see a man this handsome and young escorting me upstairs in the middle of the night, only to gossip about it behind my back."

Gu Lianlian screamed in terror. Amidst the struggle, she was no match for the combined strength of the four men as they hauled and dragged her outward.

Back in modern times, she had once idly researched these things online out of boredom, but since it wasn't her college major, she didn't understand much even after reading about it.

When we disguised ourselves as men and proceeded along the direction she pointed, Likel once asked me whether we could trust her.

"Elder Sister Xie, you must be strong," I held Xie Fangju's hand and murmured to her, my voice slightly choked with emotion.

Seeing the scene before her, Mianjing roughly guessed the ins and outs of the matter and could not help letting out a sigh.

"No need to sit, no need to sit. I'll just stay here and help you prep," Old man Luo said as he began helping Mianjing wash and chop the vegetables.
