30 Ordinary Days 1

The people sitting at the table were drowsy, and even Zhao Buzhu, the ultimate sycophant, had begun to snore.

Supported by a man, the village chief climbed down from the bed. He looked much the same as before, but his complexion was significantly more ruddy.

Unfamiliar with Xi'an, he was driven through a maze of turns and dropped off at an old building—a quiet place with a classical atmosphere.

Even when facing a true enemy, he acted like a lion hunting a rabbit: silent and decisive, ending the conflict with a single, swift blow.

Yun Zhu was filled with hatred. She hated that Cao Xun, who had been so submissive and passionate in his efforts to please her just last night, was now heartlessly warning her not to seduce others.

Emergency rescue? Qin Shuya had been perfectly fine when they parted; how could things have deteriorated to the point of needing an emergency rescue in such a short time?

"Have you ever heard of the Yellow Springs?" A title like that was a clear indication that something was wrong.

Looking up, Yang Xingwu saw the eight large characters for "Study hard and make progress every day," with a portrait of the leader in the center. Gazing at the faded blackboard and the yellowed walls, he felt a momentary sense of disorientation.

Because many people back then spread rumors that his parents had vanished into thin air, he, having not yet awakened his past-life memories, became obsessed with studying the supernatural. After graduating from high school, he dropped out to work odd jobs everywhere, while also taking on low-cost exorcism tasks online just to get closer to the paranormal.

Standing on the vehicle, Yang Xingwu waved his hands happily. As they passed the Friendship Store, he watched it for a long while.

Lu Fan smiled without a word. "I heard you left the school yesterday?" Kou Yiming asked suddenly.

"Help... help..." The guard’s chest was tightly constricted by tentacles, making his breathing extremely difficult as his face turned a deep shade of purple.

What on earth is this guy doing in there? He could have placed bets yesterday and the day before, but he spent his time sleeping and playing around... The moment betting closed, he started killing.

Xu Tian’s spiritual energy flowed wildly throughout his body; without a moment’s hesitation, he began refining the black rose.

Xuan Yuan bowed, assuming this must be Zhu Yueying’s mother, and surmised that Zhu Yueying would surely rush into her arms to share the stories of their time apart.

"You’re truly unlucky to be the first test subject for my new technique," Xun Tian said, looking down at Zhang Feng.

The bluestone stele descended with tremendous power. Everyone mourned for Wang Bugui, and even the rogue cultivators sighed at the sight.

"Don't worry, I’ll definitely make Brother Long take responsibility for you. From now on, you'll be with us!" Bai Lingxin said.

"Won..." Xue Meng looked toward the Azure Dragon in the distance, or perhaps at He Xi, her thoughts unreadable.

The army of three hundred thousand was invincible, conquering a city with every step. The cities previously captured by the New Lie Army were slowly being reclaimed by the Chu army. Of course, the Chu army’s objective was not these auxiliary cities; their true target was Nur City.

"Whether you agree or not, we have already broken up. Shen Ziyan, I have already given you the compensation you were due; please know when to stop!" Jin Yan said coldly, standing beside me. He instinctively stepped forward to shield me, terrified that I might be harmed.

Thor, with his back to Loki, curled his lips into a smile before turning around. By the time he faced him, however, that trace of a smile had vanished from his face.

Jiang Ciyun hauled Song Rong up from the ground and delivered the first punch directly to his nose; two streams of bright red blood instantly gushed from his nostrils.

Gong Qianzhu watched, wanting to step forward to offer an excuse for her, but seeing the slight movement of Cui Lü’s fingers, she realized it was a clear signal not to meddle in affairs that didn't concern her.

Furthermore, as the Ancient One had said, tea leaves steeped in dragon-blood tea possessed the ability to enhance mental power—a truly broken advantage for anyone studying magic.

But before he could even run, a great clamor broke out at the door. Shortly after, the courtyard gate was pushed open, and a foreign monk walked in, leading a group of bailiffs.

"Damn it, I was here first. I’ll take it all at that price," Lin Feng shouted. He never expected a sudden interloper to ruin his plans. He was incredibly depressed; he had thought there was room to bargain, but it seemed that was out the window now.

"Dad," Jin Yan turned and naturally addressed my father. Both his father and mine responded simultaneously, and the entire room erupted in laughter, which did much to soothe our agitated emotions.

These words confirmed Ye Sichen’s earlier suspicion: he had indeed boarded a pirate ship, the vessel had already left the shore, and he didn't know how to swim. Everyone present laughed at Alice’s words, leaving only Ye Sichen to weep without tears.

Before the words had even faded, a "whoosh" was heard as a feathered arrow streaked past the crowd and buried itself in the screen behind the Prime Minister.

"The boy was terrified at the time, so Hong Ling sent everyone away. However, I have already sent men to warn them; if they dare to speak of this, they will be killed," Xiao Ziming said.

Tang Tiantian toyed with the wine glass in her hand. She didn't want to go back so early; returning would only mean sleeping.

Seeing that Zhang Zhong'er remained silent for a long time, Zhang Yunhua felt a thin layer of sweat seep out on her back. She worried that if this stalemate continued, the hour would be missed. But then she thought, since the Emperor was sleeping in her aunt's quarters, she would surely see him in the morning, and she relaxed slightly. Just as she was weighing her options, she heard Zhang Zhong'er call for Bi Hu to bring refreshments and tea.
