Chapter 56

"Wealthy Merchant A:" "You fool, don't you understand? If he were the kind of person who prides himself on being above worldly things, wouldn't he be constantly picking bones with us? How could we ever make a fortune?"

Although deep down he knew that Kuai Long's words might not be entirely true, whether it was the Eastern World or the Western World, they were major nations that cared deeply about their prestige. As the leader of a country, seeing one's nation lose face was something one could never remain indifferent to.

Despite receiving Zhou Xi's solemn guarantees, the outcome failed to achieve the effect Sun Zhaohua desired.

Whether it was the Qin being destroyed by the Hu, or the Hu being destroyed by the Qin, or the destroyers of Qin being the Hu, or the destroyers of Hu being the Qin, it all boiled down to two meanings: first, Qin wipes out Hu; second, Hu wipes out the Qin.

After everyone left, Wu Tian began to recover his cultivation while slowly assessing the situation. Connecting with the Ziwei stars and learning how to conceal the "Ninety-First Emperor's Lattice," Wu Tian gradually executed a secret technique. Thirteen "Ninety-First Emperor's Lattice" symbols circled around him before beginning to fade and hide themselves.

Pity that muddled Tong Cheng'er could never have anticipated this. With an awkward expression, she placed one jar of wine before the old immortal, and holding the other jar, she walked over to Mu Feng.

"He found a wild boss again..." One Autumn Leaf lacked the energy to complain. Did Blossom Chaos carry a built-in attribute for attracting wild bosses?

Once its hide was treated with secret tanning techniques, it became the finest raw material for crafting top-tier battle robes, garments, and armor.

During the two civil wars, scientists from both the Decepticons and the Autobots manufactured electromagnetic weapon after electromagnetic weapon and threw them into the conflict. Not only did these wipe out countless opposing soldiers on the battlefield, but many of those battlefields even became heavily disturbed electromagnetic zones that Cybertronians could no longer approach after the war.

"Everyone, let's conclude the viewing of the items here. We will now prepare for the auction." With that, he motioned for the few people still earnestly observing with magnifiers to return to their seats.

Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Tian raised one end of the gray stone coffin held in both hands and violently swept it toward the Yin-Yang Patriarch. Space distorted abnormally, and the eerie gray stone coffin vanished once more.

Ye Qinglan asked a few follow-up questions based on her words, and Zheng Min answered every single one, displaying a rare spark of liveliness.

Ever since their trip to Ciyun Temple, this was the first time Ye Qinglan had proactively mentioned Gu Xinian's name in front of Ye Qingning.

"Black Tiger, the patriarch's direct disciple. I defeated him last time over the cultivation qualifications of the desolate temple, so he holds a bit of a grudge against me." Man Qian showed no great emotional fluctuation as he calmly watched the man slowly stepping toward them.

The Duke of Dingguo's Mansion was a full half-hour's journey from the Crown Prince's Mansion. Having received Gu Xinian's instructions, the coachman cracked his whip with a loud snap, and the carriage traveled much faster than usual.

Xie Ruohan's beautiful eyes widened as she stared in astonishment at Wang Tian. Her heart was instantly flooded with a strange sensation—very sweet, and very... happy.

Without that cave, the spirit beast felt utterly lost. Where should it go? Previously, wherever Bingpo was, it would be. But now? Where was it supposed to go?

Following right behind the Wang family, the speed of the Xie family's beast-hunting team was not the least bit slower. However, they consistently chose to maintain a certain distance from the Wang family ahead, close enough not to be shaken off, yet far enough not to be detected by Wang Tian and his group.

"Qiuguo, do you think Lady Yun will be able to deliver her child safely?" Just before closing her eyes, she asked Qiuguo, who was tucking the brocade quilt around her.

Sheng Shi looked at the medicinal prescription in his hand, his expression turning slightly cold, as he felt a sharp, piercing pain radiating deep within his bones.

Old Ai had no idea that Ling'er harbored such intentions. Ling'er was thinking that she must not let Ai Li know she had made a fool of his grandfather; otherwise, there was no telling if he might beat her to a pulp.

"I'm sorry, Aqi..." Gathering all her courage, she could not let Aqi come to harm, nor could she let those around her suffer unnecessary trouble because of her.

The yin Qi in the room had long since vanished, and the temperature had returned to normal. Yet it was precisely this normal temperature that made Li Rui suffer immensely.

In order to obtain more powerful energy, she drove her subordinates to descend upon the gradually warming earth, guiding the surviving humans to build more spiritual towers, urging them to reproduce, improving their living environments, and even developing the Spirit Net to continuously harvest psychic energy, utilizing it to combat alien space species.

He had intended to keep it from him, but paper could never wrap up fire. Even if she deceived him now, in a couple of days he would definitely find out. Thus, she had no choice but to recount the embarrassing incident of giving birth that day truthfully to Chi Yan.

"Me too, me too. There are fragrant grasses everywhere in the ends of the earth, why obsess over a single blossom?" Yongcheng joined in as well, bickering noisily with Zhongcan over who was the most handsome man under heaven.

Only, he lacked certainty. Once Susan charged into the defensive perimeter near 988, there would be no turning back. If he failed to start that machine and activate the ectoplasmic transit, it would mean certain death.

"I know, you will always be by my side." Rong Qian managed a strained smile, but the next moment, her expression darkened as memories suddenly surfaced in her mind.

However, since he had already come, Xuanyuan Tianyue's side was undoubtedly secure, but she herself had plenty of matters to deal with.

Seeing her trying to comfort her even in such a state, Su Yueyue could no longer hold back. Her nose stung, and hot tears dripped onto Mama Cai's hand.

They stopped in Weizhou, and Shen Zhao would soon lead Xiao Chuan and Chang Heng to Luzhou to attack the Marquis of Xuanping.

Pei Yourong in the elevator spent a long time trying to guess what surprise Li Zhixuan had mentioned, but finally gave up and simply stopped thinking about it.

Having undergone acupuncture at the medical clinic and feeling the lingering waves of soreness in her ankle, a flash of excitement flickered deep within Lu Xingzhou's eyes.

Naturally, this was a lie told to Draco. Ever since the second prison break, the Ministry of Magic had constantly dispatched people to monitor Lucius. Amelia naturally knew that someone else was organizing the pure-blood parade.

The renowned idol and singer Kim Taeyeon suddenly followed an un-debuted trainee on Instagram, sparking heated discussions.

Wang Zhaoxue wished she could cleave Chu Tianji into eight pieces with a single sword, but she felt somewhat powerless to do so.

Through the gap between her mask and collar, her delicate and tender collarbones were exposed, exhaling a rich fragrance and emitting a dreamy, milky-white luster like fine jade.

Ever since her family began supplementing her eldest brother-in-law's household, the last time she had laid eyes on a silver ingot was when she sold her dowry to pay for the children's father's medical treatment.
