Chapter 50

It seemed that apart from a bed and a cabinet, his bedroom could not hold anything else.

Everyone felt as though a coiling dragon were weaving back and forth among the densely packed sandbags. No one could see the figure clearly at all.

“Hmph. You mistake kindness for stupidity. If you do not want to ask, then don’t. It is nothing but some wretched affair of your court, and I cannot be bothered to listen.” With that, he flung back his sleeve and walked away.

If the champion’s strength was enough to exceed the limit his body could endure, he would have to attack the sea of elixir. Otherwise, he could only wait for his meridians to be crushed beneath Master Zhuang Yuan’s overwhelming support.

Mi Lu followed her inside as well. Following Murong Xue’er’s text message, she found Table 98 in a relatively secluded corner. Murong Xue’er had already ordered a Long Island iced tea and was sipping it.

The three Zhao siblings became a legend in Flame City, and people talked about them far more than they had about Zhao Fei, the champion of the previous competition.

“Big Brother, you must promise me that whatever happens in the future, you will never again treat your own life as a joke. You have no idea how heartbroken I was when I saw you choose death for my sake. I never want to feel that way again in this lifetime!” As Guan Yu spoke, tears slipped unconsciously down her cheeks.

“It is not obvious, but if you look closely, you can tell that His Lordship’s attitude toward Noble Lady Niu Gulu is rather stiff. That stiffness is different from the aloofness he shows toward everyone else.” Faced with Wu Xiuning’s question, Lan Yi chose to answer honestly.

“Come now, we count as part of Food Alley too. We have such a popular restaurant as Gourmet House, not to mention Chen Mo, a genius chef. How could we not count?” someone immediately shouted.

When it came to heirs and peace in the inner household, even if Yin Zhen could not accept such a thing, he himself would never forgive the other party were he faced with it.

Just as the four of them were lost in their own thoughts, a cry of surprise rang out. Looking ahead, they saw the two other guards who had escaped, along with Lü Kai and Wu Sen, approaching together.

Zi Zhao was already exhausted from dealing with the Xuan King. Where could he find extra troops to help restore his kingdom? Though he held an army of ten thousand in his hands, he could not even decide his own marriage. How could he possibly overthrow the Xuan King in such a short time?

Her excited appearance startled even the few hired thugs who had come to block the road. Could they have stopped the wrong person?

Xiao Yan’s lips curled upward. The flames covering his body suddenly erupted, and four Imperial Flames burned above his head like brilliant lamps. The countless blood droplets surging toward him burst apart one after another. The rancid stench that spread through the air grew increasingly intense, and in the hazy atmosphere, people felt dizzy and dazed, as though the entire space were being corroded.

Just as Blazing Blood, his eyes crimson, was preparing his killing move, Ghost Vulture’s gloomy voice suddenly rang out. Blazing Blood froze, his imposing aura weakening as he looked toward Ghost Vulture, who had charged before him.

At that moment, Luo Haotian’s face was twisted with savagery, blood vessels veining his eyes, while the short sword in his hand radiated a snowy-white light.

After settling the army, Li Wang and Zhao Yi rode side by side back to the administrative office. Along the way, Li Wang asked Zhao Yi about the details of his past battles against the Yellow Turban Army. Zhao Yi was an eloquent speaker, and Li Wang listened with his blood surging, as though he were witnessing the battles in person.

She had long grown accustomed to the coldness and insubstantiality of Fu Yue’s wisp of a soul. Suddenly being embraced by a man made her intensely uncomfortable.

At this point, the Jade Immortaless could only click her tongue in amazement. A battle of that level was already beyond anything she could imagine.

The next hurdle would be the interview in March. At the end of the day, the interview tested overall ability—nothing one could cram for at the last minute.

The story between his father and mother could not be drawn out of his father’s mouth, so Yinzi could only wait until he found his mother. Yet even when Yinzi was seventeen, his mother still had not appeared.

The reason he was so determined to have Su Jinx i investigate Soul-Severing Sorrow and uncover the truth was simply that both his father and mother had died because of it.

The man slowly rose to his feet and lowered his eyes toward the man nearby, who had already lost all control of himself. He sighed.

He had no choice. The shop had never lacked people before, but now that an obviously capable newcomer had joined them, he had to find a way to keep him.

Most of the time, they approached their prey in silence and killed their opponents. Once they began roaring at their enemies, however, it meant they were already at the end of their strength and no longer a threat.

At some unknown moment, a light came into Ye Chen’s eyes. As far as his gaze could reach, he could already see a pure land, bathed in Buddhist radiance and ringing with the sound of great bells.

After pondering for a long while, he finally reached a conclusion: the impact of an external force had shattered the Eternal Passage. As for that terrifying divine radiance, it must have come from outside as well. At the very least, he had never seen anything like it among the heavens.

It was obvious that the Immortal Venerable before him had already fused with quite a few strange flames and had come here simply to fuse with this one as well.

Zhao Tiezhu raised the cleaver in his hand. The crimson blood smeared across it made it perfectly clear what he had done.

However, the layer of cloud where they were now was not actually very high above the ground. Even the capital lay only a thousand miles or so below.

Gu Keyu questioned him as she approached Liang Mingsi. Her manner was cold and impassive, but inwardly she desperately wanted to know the whole truth. More than that, she wanted to know whether her conjecture was correct.

Wei Moze considered his disguise flawless, but now, standing face-to-face with the expressionless Ouyang Chu, he truly felt a chill creep through his heart.

I slowly raised my head, letting my tear-bright eyes enter her line of sight. After seeing the shock and tenderness in her eyes, I quickly lowered my head again.
