Chapter 59 Birth Characters

Sitting across from the candlelight dinner meticulously prepared by Qianxi, I recounted everything that had happened over the past two days in detail. Starting from the crystal coffin entrusted by Monk Ciji, I narrated all the way up to Abbess Huilan calculating that eerie destined marriage for Lin Yulang. On the slip of paper hidden inside the Exquisite Eight-Treasure Pagoda, the birth dates of both Lin Yulang and Ye Qiang were written. Hearing the entire story, Gu Qianxi dropped her jaw in astonishment.

Leng Qianyue felt a fierce gust of wind sweeping up behind her spine; however, to her surprise, the expected pain never arrived.

Recalling the instructions her father had given her, Chu Jinxi hesitated for a moment before speaking up.

Aside from Ge Shouli, the Jin Faction was not trying to save Gao Gong at all; instead, under the banner of saving Gao Gong, they seized the opportunity to continue usurping power.

At moments like this, Qu Rao couldn't help but wonder if her life would be completely flawless if she had a child with Pei Yuanjiu.

Thinking back to how Chu Yinan used to treat her, Qu Rao had to admit that she hadn't been entirely untouched by his gestures. But back then, she was young, frivolous, and infatuated with Pei Yuanjiu. She believed that only someone like Pei Yuanjiu, who seemed like an immortal descended from the heavens, was worthy of being her boyfriend, while someone like Chu Yinan, who was merely superior to ordinary men, was only fit to be a friend.

Gu Yunxiang replied in a low voice, and Xin Nian instantly understood: the year before last was precisely when the Northern Frontier was in a perilous situation, and Prince Duan accepted the imperial commission in times of danger, taking the commander's seal to set off for the front lines.

Little did Master He know, that scoundrel Wei Ting had not only brought his mother back with him but also his concubine.

Upon hearing this, Ye Wu's pupils suddenly constricted. He abruptly looked behind Ye Fan, and Ye Fan followed suit.

He groaned in pain. Hearing the sound, Zhang Qimeng was momentarily stunned, and Liu Hong seized the opportunity to kick Zhang Qimeng straight in the chest, sending him flying a meter backward. The knife embedded in his arm was pulled out by the momentum and dropped right in front of Zhang Qimeng.

"Let's see how long you can hold out!" the Dragon God's soul sneered, intensifying his attack even further. He had already noticed that Ye Yang's soul space was somewhat peculiar, resembling a soul space formed by some kind of special secret technique.

These seven individuals were originally elders of the Quiet Convent, possessing formidable strength. Over the past seven days, they had also practiced the Thousand Frosts Falling Leaves Sword technique, a heavenly-grade martial art of the convent, propelling them into an entirely new realm.

Yang Ting gave me a serious look. She knew her father had gone a bit too far; matters of marriage should be based on mutual willingness. Since there was no affection, it would have been better to part ways amicably—why bother giving my family the cold shoulder?

The fat man, however, kept his eyes fixed firmly in a certain direction among the procession of netherworld soldiers. He rubbed his eyes, wearing an expression of utter disbelief.

He was well aware that this viper was the guardian sacred beast of the Cihang Jingzhai, serving as their ultimate trump card. Yet, strategically speaking, one must disdain the opponent—specifically by looking down on every single magical treasure they possessed.

A sharp gleam flashed intensely through Chen Xuan's eyes. He let out a gentle breath, pondered for a moment, and picked up the flint that had fallen to the ground.

As for why, only he himself knew the truth. According to his own later account, he had once offended a certain individual and received a phone call warning him to run immediately.

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Chen Yurou and her brother shifted slightly. Such a possibility was something they genuinely hadn't considered before.

Let them laugh all they wanted; if they enjoyed laughing, they could laugh louder. In any case, laughing wouldn't cause him to lose a single ounce of flesh.

Xia Jun frowned deeply after taking a quick look. As soon as the two bigwigs walked out of the conference room, he hurried with brisk strides toward Sun Feng's office.

The two drove to a nearby cinema to catch a movie. The hottest blockbusters of this summer season were undoubtedly Batman and Kung Fu Panda. This period was reserved for importing Hollywood blockbusters for the summer release window, while the Chinese New Year slot was strictly left for domestic films.

Even the Lieutenant General and Commander could not help but look at Zhang Tianyi in a new light. It was he who had actively proposed Zhang Tianyi's promotion, and he never in his wildest dreams imagined that Zhang Tianyi would later gift him ten thousand taels of silver.

Of course, she could have simply asked the reporting guard to relay the prince's words once more and send the guard to dismiss the visitor directly. However, she feared that after being passed on twice, the message might get distorted, which would be an irresponsible attitude. Therefore, she still intended to make a trip to the palace gates herself and deliver the prince's words to the merchant in person.
