Chapter 39: Madam, the General Has Returned

"Ha~hahaha~~"

Having just had a good sleep in their newly purchased mansion, little Xun'er regained her full energy and was brimming with curiosity about her new home. She ran wildly all over the courtyard, with a maid and a valet chasing closely behind her. Yan Chaonian smiled as he watched them for a moment before turning around and heading to the front courtyard; since they had just moved in, there were still plenty of matters that required his attention.

Steward Wu and his wife had gone out early in the morning, and by the afternoon, the owner of the porcelain shop had pulled a cartload of goods through the gates. Even though the previous...

"In the city? Why would Prime Minister Shi say such a thing? Aren't my fifty thousand Imperial Guards stationed inside the city?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun felt his heart leap straight up to his throat at Shi Miyuan's words.

Joy immediately welled up in his heart, as the "mandarin duck bath" before his eyes was about to passionately unfold once again.

It was just a pity that he still couldn't figure out what was so beneficial about fusing with the bloodline of the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf; perhaps its potential simply hadn't been unleashed yet, and he had no idea how to stimulate it.

Cheng Huijiao and Zhao Yan were currently recording videos of the clients applying for loans to make my approval process easier. In truth, I couldn't actually discern a person's lifespan from a video—it was merely going through the motions.

A day later, as a heavy blanket of dark clouds pressed down, an oppressive atmosphere enveloped Wolf Hongxiang and the other demonic beasts. At the same time, dull, rumbling roars echoed through the air, and the entire world instantly dimmed as the winds and clouds shifted dramatically.

Xi Baobo glided over swiftly, and the guards of the Princess Palace swarmed in as well, protecting both Xi Baobo and Han Xiao.

Wang Chaoxiao fished out two glittering essence beads from his bosom, extended his hand, and placed them into Tulage's palm. "This—" Tulage lowered his head to gaze at the two beads, looking at Wang Chaoxiao in profound astonishment. "Master, what is this?" Tulage suddenly felt as though he had anticipated something, yet also nothing at all, a nameless tremor rippling through his heart.

"Working at a hospital?" The aunt, accustomed to the backward ways of her maiden family, had never known anyone who managed to secure a job within the county town. Although she herself had married into the county seat, she had yet to land a stable job. Suddenly hearing her nephew say he was going to work at a hospital, she thought she must have misheard, her face a mask of bewilderment.

Seeing the imperial troops begin to rout, the human wall instantly reorganized into groups of five. They closely followed the frantically retreating imperial troops and charged directly toward the督战队 (督战队) who were still executing their own retreating men, pushing onward to their rear positions.

Zhiyin had never tasted red wine before. She didn't dare drink it, afraid she might make a fool of herself over such a thing later, so she simply opted for some soft drinks.

"Principal Zhou, isn't that going a bit too far!" Guonian Fei directly shoved Zhou Man, causing her to lose her footing and crash to the ground.

"Shancheng, calm down! Yiying has been with me the entire time, how could she possibly be sending messages?" Huo Qiong said.

However, the moment her voice fell, no response came. The robust man downstairs merely stared at the elder surnamed Zhao, as though he hadn't noticed Guoluo at all, treating him like a fish on a chopping board waiting to be slaughtered; as long as the obstacle was removed, he could deal with the rest however he pleased.

Upon hearing this, Mudi and Huasheng also cast resentful glances around and obediently shut their mouths.

At that moment, both the heavenly and earthly tribulations of the cosmos trembled slightly, because what Yin Tianfu had severed was his past karma. He had completely abandoned all his previous encounters and fortuitous destinies, all to shake off the extraction of his fortune by that plane's spiritual roots.

Dugu Shuqin gave a casual flick of her hand and pulled out a strange device that looked remarkably like a mobile phone. It consisted of two layers: the bottom layer, resembling a landline telephone, was rectangular and covered with numerous glowing blue keyboard buttons, while the second layer connected to the base was a large circular screen.

"Hahahaha..." A burst of loud laughter suddenly echoed from a little over a hundred meters ahead. The God of War Alliance members were all startled, instantly closing ranks and eyeing the front with extreme vigilance.

Thus, Artaban fiercely charged toward the unstoppable Liu Fan. Seeing that Liu Fan was actually wielding a fine sword and appeared much more slender and frail than himself, Artaban concluded that Liu Fan was certainly no match for him.
