Chapter 111: Perhaps an Experiment

"We previously found several medical records at Maria Hospital. On those pages, various plant branches and leaves were marked with strange numbers that only appeared under ultraviolet light."

Hearing this, Guli was momentarily taken aback.

"When we just walked out of the pediatric ward, there were also medical records scattered all over the floor. We didn’t look closely then—could it be that there were also number markings on those?"

"That's possible."

Ji Furong sighed deeply. Could it be that the days of carefree eating, drinking, playing, and sleeping were truly gone forever?

Yun Chi and the others were unaware that, due to the capricious boasting of Lord Qingyun, before the Four Sects Martial Gathering even began, they had already become the focal point among the disciples participating in this event. Standing together now, they discussed the opponents they had drawn.

"We won’t have a wedding for the time being. After all, we’re still in university. At least, we’ll wait until graduation before considering it," Lu Tangtang honestly told Zheng Xiaoyue.

If that was the case, then no one would have set two barriers just to imprison her. Moreover, a heavy rain was involved in this matter.

The beauty, clad in a scanty garment, gently swayed on stage. Though her movements were minimal, she made it difficult for anyone to remain composed, swallowing nervously.

Originally, I said those things merely to dispel Gu Lei’s curiosity about Luo Qi, so I wouldn’t have to expand the lie any further.

Though Banruo was only following orders from the Underworld, I still had a feeling that Banruo would harm me, harm my child. So, instinctively, I harbored a strong aversion toward Banruo.

Yun Chi frowned slightly and looked up. Night had fallen, and the atmosphere was thick with yin energy—a time when vengeful spirits were most potent. It was not wise to confront them now. It would be better to gather information tomorrow before dealing with the matter.

"Thank you, Mu Yun! The sacred artifact won’t be absorbed, will it?" Still shaken, Chen Feng patted his chest. Being chased by a powerful Xuan Emperor was truly terrifying.

"I see now, I understand!" Assuming a defensive stance, Tiemu Yun watched the darkness warily. He finally grasped what kind of place the Trial Tower really was.

Even if Emperor Yonghe spared Prince Xiang’s life because he was his biological son, in a fit of rage he would strip the prince of his title. He might even vent his anger on her, demoting her from a second-rank consort.

If Emperor Yong’an truly had spies in every palace, how could he tolerate these concubines repeatedly harming the imperial heirs? How could he have trusted Mo Liu’s false accusations at the Changxia Hall?

The Dowager Empress Xiaohe wore formal attire today. Her snow-white hair was styled into a high Lingyun bun. On either side of the bun were golden hairpins adorned with emerald tassels, and at the center was a nine-tailed phoenix hairpin.

Ye Kui sat calmly in her place, her expression unchanged, not even a flicker of her eyelashes. Qin Sang had positioned herself in front of her, and at this moment, Ye Kui was more convinced than ever of the importance of having a maid versed in martial arts by her side.

Pei Changge recited the poem once more, feeling the cold and wild spirit seep through his lips and teeth, making it unforgettable. He found himself viewing Ye Kui in a new light.

Since he knew that Pei Changge and Ye Chongwu were still alive, he must have stationed people in secret places.

Ling Xuan looked at him, suddenly feeling a chill in his heart as though he had realized something. A faint red gleam flickered in his eyes—a subtle murderous intent that he unconsciously revealed, but Master Liaocheng saw it clearly.

When the edict was finally announced and Xuan Hexuan was summoned inside, she took a deep breath to calm herself.

Gu Hanhao had wanted to say a few words of praise to Liu Fan, but upon seeing Yuan Jun’s gloomy expression, he swallowed his words.
