Chapter 37: Remember to Come Find Me! (Please Vote for Me)
Zhu Xingjie and the three others exchanged glances, each seeing joy reflected in the others’ eyes.
“What does it feel like when you drink it?” Zhu Xingjie asked Zhao Jiaozi, who was happily sipping the tea.
The young man had just been called over from the training ground by Mi Tang, so his impression of the tea should be more vivid.
“Tastes great!” Zhao Jiaozi replied with unwavering certainty. Worried they might not believe him, he repeated, “Really, it tastes great!”
“Who asked you this?” Shi Feng snapped irritably.
Only when he finally woke up and felt the tangible touch in his arms did he realize it was a genuine embrace—warm and soft—which in turn made him feel truly alive.
Below the rank of concubine, one could still vie for favor based on Emperor Yong’an’s preferences. Above that rank, it was all about connections within the previous dynasty. It was already a stroke of luck to be promoted to the position of consort. Without anyone to support her at court, how could she possibly compete against Consort Ying and Consort Rou?
Then, if her uncle-in-law could leave Shengjing and avoid enduring the strange stares of others, and not have to witness or hear certain things firsthand... avoiding it would be a blessing in disguise.
What nonsense—destroy the world? Shi Noyu only yearned for peace. He had never harbored such terrifying intentions, nor had he ever possessed such dreadful power.
Gu Hanhao exerted some effort to push open the ‘door’ to the basement. At the instant it swung open, a wave of damp, decaying stench hit his face. Though prepared mentally, Gu Hanhao still had to turn away, choking on the foul odor.
Bai Junye’s entire body was flung back, crashing against the abyss’s far wall, blood spilling from his mouth.
“Brother Dian is magnanimous. How should we proceed with this matter? Please advise, my lord,” upon hearing Dian Wei’s words, Zheng Ying’s heart stirred. No wonder her lord had the saying, “A soldier apart for three days should be viewed anew.” She realized she must be more cautious in her future actions.
So his name was Liu Shenzhi. Lin Yijia gazed at him, thinking to herself that the name sounded somewhat stern—not like the kind of person who would instantly warm your heart and make you want to draw near.
Helan Chiyan already resented Tang Ning for being stronger than her and seizing everything that once belonged to her. After she was exposed by Tang Ning for framing Yang Qingqing recently, her hostility towards Tang Ning deepened even further.
The valley was vast, filled with countless trees. If fully cultivated, it could sustain tens of thousands. Yet the entire Holy Servant clan had fewer than a hundred members, so the area Huang Xuanling had cleared was still less than a tenth of the valley.
“Xiao Kuang, I suddenly realize that both I and the Flame Lion have been deceived by you. Even one year of trust was too much. I have a premonition that sooner or later, we will die by your hand,” the Crystal Ice Jade Snake suddenly said.
The fist struck Satan’s mask dead center, but Lin Feiyang was shocked to see the fist slide off the mask.
“I don’t know if he came from outside, but I know his name is Tian Ermiao,” the elder said.
Anyway, Tian Ermiao sat across on the sofa and didn’t stop him. He made two more calls but couldn’t get through.
“What’s going on? Too ashamed of us, so you want to kill yourself?” The monkey scratched his head, puzzled.
He handed half a banknote to the burly man, who took it and rifled through his pocket, finding the other half to complete it.
Afterward, Su Yanyu took off her coat, because Hu’s loose outerwear would slow her down.
The Ghost Dragon noticed Xiao Kuang’s oddity too, but neither of them realized that Xiao Kuang’s entire body, not just his arms, had turned golden.
“Qin Ying, the Nine Swords Sect and other forces have long coveted Leshan—not because of the Ice Fairy did they attack us,” a handsome male cultivator said.
“What is this? My blood—how can my blood disappear? Damn you! What are you doing? Stop this immediately, do you hear me?” Blood Soldier suddenly felt his invincible blood draining rapidly and shouted in terror.
