36. Baked Apples with Sweet Rice Wine

In this present age, more than a dozen prodigies have descended upon the world, their strength rivaling that of the experts from the Demon Realm.

City Lord Murong watched as the sky grew bright. He took a deep breath, struggling to master his emotions. After all, he held the title of City Lord, and this war was truly a blood-boiling affair. Composing himself as best he could, he offered a cold smile and cast his gaze into the distance.

If they managed to spirit the Demon Star Child away, and he found a suitable body to cultivate in, reaching the Purple Mansion Realm would be a simple matter—the Origin Spirit Realm aside—taking at most a decade or so to regain his former power.

This is precisely why a warrior, especially a peerless commander, would never lightly replace the weapon that belongs to him.

Suddenly, a man outside the city spurred his horse and charged into the enemy lines with spear in hand. He fought his way back and forth as if there were no one there, reaching the city gate and shouting for them to open it.

As the two of them walked back to the earthen terrace one after the other, they saw the five porters huddled in a corner with their bundles piled to one side. Another soldier was using the bundles as cover, aiming his rifle; clearly, they had heard the gunfire earlier.

The Treasure-Swallowing Jar erupted, transforming into a beam of demonic light that surged into the depths. Yang Fan poured the power of the Twelve Yin Spirit Ancient Demons into his body while simultaneously unleashing the Dragon Blood Manual, activating ten times his combat strength.

Since I have returned to the Three Kingdoms era and happened to meet Tian Feng, I must not let him repeat his past mistakes. To do so would not only be a great loss to the world, but a loss for me as well. Let me, Wang Tianjie, help Guo Jia and him change their destinies and allow them to fully display their extraordinary talents.

Two months of slaughter, teetering on the brink of death every single time—it was terrifying, and more than once, he was only a step away from perishing.

Yang Fan rubbed his chin. What exactly were these people looking for? It seemed Senior Liu Jianfeng knew something about it.

Xu Zhihu stared at him blankly, hardly able to believe what he had done. He reached out and stiffly took her hand.

When Duanmu De-Shu learned that her husband had invited the Prince Regent to drink tea in the front courtyard, she eagerly brought out her most prized possessions. She had struggled with the decision for a long time; these were different from her usual offerings—they were vintage treasures, each one something she had hoped to leave for her descendants.

But the speaker’s status was too high, and this was the Fengwu Palace—not a place where she could speak freely. Having suffered a major setback here last time, how could she dare to open her mouth?

A few fish died, but as long as the mermen were alive, that was enough. One fish or merman could be eaten by the other turtles or whatever humanoid creatures were there.

Seeing her silent demeanor, Jiang Jingyu assumed he had guessed correctly and sighed inwardly.

Although it was late June and the height of noon, making the weather sweltering, the Feng family’s villa was surrounded by trees and shaded with lush greenery, so it was not quite as hot as one might expect.

There were spiritual fruits—some ripened in a year, some in three, some in seven. Some bloomed like caterpillars, while others bore harvests.

Zan Qing did not know whether to call the Emperor sentimental or impulsive. Sigh, as long as no mistakes were made, it was fine.

Mu Shaohe grew anxious! It was one thing for Yang Yang to take a fancy to the Lord, which would certainly displease Qianli, but Yang Yang and Qianli had a good relationship. What if he were to trick the Mu family?

Seeing this, Bai Haoxu already understood something, but in his heart, he could not bring himself to believe it from start to finish.

Another day passed, and Shi Tian had fully recovered. The mission was complete. He and Zuiyu had to return to their master to report, and Cixin saw them off the mountain.

“Who is she?” Almost simultaneously, the other four roommates in the dorm sat up, looking at Geng Haoshi with curiosity. It was clear they had all been woken up just now, only to lie in bed and eavesdrop.

However, Jiuer didn't care about these things at all. She was here for the cake; no matter how good the car was, it meant nothing to her.

When the middle-aged man saw Zhu Youde return, he hurried forward to say a few words. Seeing the tightly shut door, blue veins throbbed on Zhu Youde’s forehead as he cursed that spendthrift woman countless times in his heart.

“Oh, stay away from me, I’m going to go cross-eyed!” Jiuer closed her eyes, shook her head, and took a few steps back.

The Second Princess frowned, her slender, snow-white fingers lifting slightly as a white paper crane for sound transmission landed softly on her fingertip.

After all, apart from Pei Yeling, only Rong Shaojin mattered to her in this place.

“President Long hasn’t arrived yet. If you have urgent business with him, please wait to the side; he should be here shortly.” As an employee of a large company, basic courtesy was a must.

As soon as the car stopped, Guo Haiying, hearing the sound, ran to the entrance and immediately caught sight of the graceful and smiling Xiao Baozhu.

“Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the hidden guards at Zhilan Palace have been cleared. You may rest easy.” The man in black who spoke was Wei Hai.

After listening to Reid, everyone finally understood what was happening. One by one, they followed the instructions, began to meditate, and practiced the Flowing Qi Seal taught by Reid.

At this moment, apart from the words "thank you," Jian Yi did not know what else she could say.

If he were to stop what Xu Tingrui wanted to do today, the consequences would likely be far more than just serious.

“Young Master, I understand. I will go and remove the trending topic on Weibo and shut down the media outlets that reported it immediately.” Zhan Yao walked out at once.
