Chapter 109: The Disturbance

“Anyway, I don’t understand these matters, so just go ahead and do as you please. If you need anything from me, just say the word.”
Bai Huan flattered her, “Your Imperial Highness, you are an expert in fragrance tasting. How could you not understand? I will simply focus on the work. I plan to select an auspicious day to hold a grand opening celebration, with a banquet lasting three days and nights, inviting everyone in Chang’an to join the festivities. Additionally, I propose that Your Highness host a fragrance tasting banquet within the palace, inviting the noble families of Chang’an and Luoyang, to showcase the finest feminine scents.”

Butler Xu Fu comforted him for most of the evening. News of the Wang Mansion’s pursuit of Ye Haotian had reached his ears. Nangong Shang, bearing the assurance of Prince Liang, had personally come to apologize. Although he already believed in the innocence of Su Ninger and that Li Mo, his anger had yet to subside.

As for Feng Lingmo, she paused briefly then silently followed closely behind, saying nothing.

Li Wei clearly understood that the furniture from the Zhe family and that from the woodcraft shop were entirely different in style. He had been to Wu’s Manor before. Though Li Wei had never entered the factory, the bustling docks, crowded merchants, and tidy streets gave him a fresh impression.

Aimu was originally my spectator, but after seeing my vigorous practice, she began to train in martial arts herself. I noticed she was practicing Wing Chun, the same style as our class monitor Lin Ying. However, in terms of power, she was far inferior to Lin Ying.

The tidal wave of blood surged relentlessly, engulfing my Qi Sea. The entire Qi Sea world within my dantian transformed into a sea of blood.

Zhang Yuhao was quite industrious, making two trips back and forth to complete the tasks, including things for the cat.

The deputy general’s voice rose nearly to a roar, piercing the sky. The Blood Skull warriors, running behind him, had not yet grasped the situation but quickly pulled on their warhorses’ reins. After charging another several dozen meters, they finally stopped.

He intended to use his fellow tradesmen’s shops as collateral, then launch a sweeping crackdown to have all the woodcraft shops renamed “Li.” From then on, the Li family would truly become the foremost in the woodcraft business, trampling the old Lu family beneath their feet.

The escorts began to pant heavily. If it weren’t to protect Zhao Yun, they might not have wanted to confront such a mysterious sorcerer at all.

Aimu seemed to have misunderstood my meaning. Her face flushed red with shyness. She lowered her head, too bashful to meet my gaze.

Wang Na was now dead. According to Li Wei’s deduction, having been killed by zombies, she would likely turn into one herself. Since the Golden Phoenix Pill prevents a corpse from decaying for ten years, it naturally gave Li Wei ten years to find a solution.

After Chu Ren entered, Qing Man and Qing Wu stood guard outside the door. Green Ping, under the pretense of drying clothes, moved a stool to sit by the rear window and busied herself with sewing.

Thus, once all the core powerhouses of Kuang City reached a consensus, Chu Chen’s qualification to enter the city lord competition was effectively sealed.

Although constantly enveloped in the Liuli Flame while comprehending the Yang Dao, Xie Yun was fully aware of everything happening within the Rift Heaven secret realm.

“Zhong Kang, you shall defend the city but must not sally forth to meet the enemy,” Liu Yu ordered, then led his men back into the city. None could fathom Liu Yu’s intentions, but all felt disheartened and oppressed.

After finishing the work, when I came out, Old Biao was already cleaning the floor with a mop, and the sacks on the ground were tied up.

“That’s right! Mind your own damn business! Haven’t you seen people jump into the river to commit suicide?” another burly man shouted at me.

Liu Zhang lay motionless on the ground. His hollow gaze passed through Liu Jing, staring into an unknown distance.

No one would dare offend Jian Feibai for the sake of a strange young boy. Jian Feibai was the First Elder of Wushuang City, a man of great power and status, and profoundly skilled in cultivation.

These ferocious beasts resembled monkeys but had three heads and six arms. Others looked like gibbons but were covered in scales. Some were as massive as hippos but bore two sharp horns on their heads.
