Chapter 42

When mentioning Fourth Prince and Fourteenth Prince, Xia Mo still let out a sigh. She could only look honestly at Eighth Prince; while she would stand by his side, she still hoped he could compete fairly.

Upon hearing this, the attendant bowed and withdrew. Dazed, Yang Fu looked at his reflection in the mirror with a very stiff expression. He patted his face and forced a smile at the mirror, but his skin twitched, managing only an ugly, awkward curve that seemed both like a sneer and not a sneer.

"What you say makes sense, but even so, how can you ensure that Wanyi won't be jealous?" Wei Huaqing turned his head and asked.

Han Chen had no time to waste bickering with them and dashed straight into the gap. Just as the children were about to follow, a dozen thick stone pillars suddenly erupted from the ground, sealing the gap airtight in the blink of an eye.

"Don't worry, Eighth Princess Consort. Prince Wang said Eighteenth Master is waiting for him and cannot accompany us, so he made his apologies and left." Lady Nian hurriedly added, showing no sign of anger toward Eighth Prince, with a radiant and very comforting smile.

The river water was damp and chilly. Inside the room, Ling Xue was draped in a fur cloak, lying across the table and listlessly toying with the jade talisman in her hand. Opposite her, Zhao Yu held a volume of classics, reading it with great relish.

"Hmph, then just wait! I won't let you off. If you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, so be it." Xia Qin proudly grabbed a drink and walked away.

The Great Elder waved his hand to interrupt him and said, "There is no need to say more, I know your situation." He pointed in the direction from which he had rushed over.

"Is it wrong for me to study like this? I'm not the worst, and I didn't fail," Yuxuan said with an innocent expression.

"I don't care how Pompey's army comes; I'm only responsible for making sure he can neither advance nor stay here at Ponticabium," Canrabius laughed sinisterly. Adnana loved this expression of the amphora, as it brought her immense pleasure.

With a loud thump, Chen Yun was unable to resist the coercion and malevolent aura emanating from those blood-red eyes, and fell to his knees, trembling all over, looking utterly terrified and frightened.

At this moment, Xing Tian had already lost consciousness, presumably due to prolonged physical exertion combined with oxygen deprivation, which caused him to briefly pass out.

Tang Jun asked, "What are you looking at?" She didn't speak, her expression remaining as angry as ever. Tang Jun immediately began to mutter to himself: Taohua wouldn't normally come to find me this early. And she arrived abruptly without even calling ahead—that's not like her at all. She must have found out something about me, right?

"But sister, you must know that I am afraid of the dark at night." Claudius released her lips, looked into Claudia's hazy eyes, and said.

However, as the information was passed layer by layer through the front rows, within minutes, everyone present knew clearly that today, Wang Kun's child was not only born, but was a son.

The shouts of encouragement, first one and then two, merged into a dynamic roar throughout the venue, their passionate and high-spirited attitude instantly igniting the entire martial arts arena.

"Shut up, I am not discussing any topics about the meaning and value of life with you right now," Telureas roared back with dissatisfaction.

"Well, if I guessed correctly, Xuan Yun probably did it this way!" Cheng Huailai clamped the iron piece between his fingers, aligned it with the groove, and patted the wall twice.

Su Lin had seen his cousin Han Lingling wear this sailor uniform; it was very kawaii. Now that he took this set of sailor uniforms out, he couldn't help imagining what Senior Sister Yun Yiyi would look like wearing it.

Was this an attempt to take advantage of the master's absence to first disrupt the Night Group and the Shadow Group, and then sever the cooperation between the master and Young Master Wusang?

From the perspective of the Han people, unless there was a funeral at home, who would deal with such items? Such things were considered ominous, after all.

"Alright, Commander, Qishan acted out of friendship and showed loyalty and righteousness, which is just like you. You shouldn't scold him anymore," Duan Tieyi persuaded from the side.

"I don't know. The world is so vast, yet I can't find a way home. I thank you, brave warrior, for saving my life; I'm afraid I'll never be able to repay this kindness in this lifetime," Liu Bao said dejectedly.

Mu Duan instantly flew into a rage and suddenly charged directly at Yang Tou. However, Yang Tou paid no attention to the long sword thrusting toward him, instead slashing out directly with his saber.

The crowd was slightly stunned, but their eyes were filled with respect. Even Bai Yongcheng's father, Fourth Master Bai, showed a look of relief. After all, when Yongcheng died at the entrance of the latrine, even though most people suspected it had something to do with going to the latrine, almost no one actually went into the latrine to investigate seriously, whereas Bai Yongyuan had done so.

With a wheelchair and a bed that could be pushed, should they build a flat path beside this ladder to make it easier to push the wounded? Li Qingyao looked at Qin Guang and Deng Bing, softly suggesting that they modify this path, and also mentioning that the threshold was too high—how were wheelchairs and beds supposed to be pushed inside?

Lost in these thoughts, I zoned out completely, unaware of when my Senior Uncle had come down from upstairs.

Upon hearing this, Lou Mian's mouth twitched. Disregarding the pain in her foot, she flipped over and leaped straight off the bed.

After the madams chattered away for a long time, Consort Jin finally understood the meaning behind their words. However, Second Prince's power and influence were clearly greater than her own son's; how was she to scheme against him?

Temporarily lacking sufficient strength to overwhelm others with power, they had prepared a layered layout to undermine the foundations of Sky Corporation and drastically weaken its strength to achieve their goals.

Yet Zhou Dedao happened to know what my ancestor looked like when he was in deep slumber, and in that state, my ancestor couldn't help me at all. Therefore, at this time, my safety could only depend on myself.

The two partners jumped out voluntarily, giving them ample excuse; otherwise, it would have been truly awkward for them to kick those people out directly.

"Slap!" Yang Feng felt a gust of wind blow past the back of his head. The two of them instantly turned around to look, but there was only a hollow tree, nothing special.

"Your current manager..." Heng Gang was about to ask whether that person was doing a good job, but then he thought that since he had abandoned Gu Bei first, he had no qualification to ask.

Having been scolded for no reason, the young girl could only cast a pitiful look at Su Mu and the others, signaling them to leave quickly.
