Volume 1 Chapter 62: Slander

The general's tone of voice became extremely unsettled, completely devoid of his previous majestic and awe-inspiring demeanor.

In this fleeting moment, the legacy disciples of Sky City, including all their guardian elders, found themselves unable to breathe. It felt as though the entire Primordial Universe had frozen and come to a complete halt. If an expert from an outer universe were to launch a sudden raid at this very second, a single move would likely annihilate them all without a single survivor.

Baili Jueyi unleashed a strike while simultaneously employing his movement martial arts to rapidly retreat backward, speaking as he moved.

As for what the bet was about, Lin Feng could easily figure it out with his toes. Moreover, he understood Su Wanqing all too well; had it not been for Li Ruonan's constant, all-encompassing surveillance, Su Wanqing might have forcibly merged with him right there by the earthen slope.

What pleased him the most, however, was that under his guidance, Jiang Yan no longer called him "husband" at every turn. Furthermore, she had learned to reasonably manage her own time and no longer constantly clung to his side.

"Just picking up girls, what, got a problem?" Ye Feng shrugged. Having spent so much time hanging out with a trainwreck of a talker like Yu Fei, his own personality had slightly shifted to resemble a modern person more, occasionally cracking jokes with others.

"No one could have foreseen such a thing happening. Don't blame yourselves!" Jin Feng sighed and said.

Fortunately, he still had one last card to play—his ultimate trump card, which was the middle-aged man in grey robes standing beside him.

"Since you two are acquaintances, you should be the one to ask!" Seeing that Tie Xi recognized Bing Zi, the man took a step back.

"In that case, let this matter be handled by the Brocade Guard. Given that such an incident has occurred right here in the palace, I am certain they will investigate it with the utmost dedication." Baoyun swept her gaze across those present, speaking softly as she flicked her sleeve and prepared to leave.

After a moment, she opened her eyes, got out of bed, changed into outdoor clothing, and hurried out of the bedroom.

A gold mine is a place where gold is obtained through mining operations, formed by metallogenic processes as a commercially viable accumulation of gold ore of a certain scale.

In his view, this could not possibly have been stamped by Wang Muzhi himself; it could only mean that someone close to Wang Muzhi had stolen his private seal. After all, Wang Muzhi would neither suspect nor discover such an act if it were done by someone in his inner circle.

This celebration lasted well into the middle of the night. Wu Zheng and Liu Chenxue seemed to have an endless stream of things to say, spending the entire night awake in mutual conversation.

His layup attribute had also reached 90. For Xia Tian, no guard in the CBA could possibly stop his drives and layups anymore.

Seeing that she refused to leave, Jiang Xiu picked up the bowl of noodles on the bedside table and hurled it violently against the wall behind her.

Hearing the Crown Prince of Southern Vietnam suddenly stop mid-sentence, the Third Prince was struck by a very ominous premonition—he felt as though he had just made a terribly crucial mistake.

This time, Hayward did not hold the ball; instead, he walked right up to Xia Tian and performed a comical two-step dance, as if mocking Xia Tian's previous double step-back move.

On Friday, after classes ended, Su Jin was getting ready to head back when she witnessed a mind-boggling scene.

"What on earth is going on???" Laguer, Qinya, and Silvia all wore expressions of absolute incomprehension.

"Then can I call you... sister?" Nian stammered, pausing for a moment. Although she had never imagined what it would feel like to have a biological older sister, if she did have one, she must be just like Isabella.

Due to its overwhelming shock, it involuntarily relaxed its sharp beak, allowing Sword's gannet to escape.

Of course, Ye Luo's focus was not entirely on the Inspection Envoys. The truly formidable powerhouses within Holy City were not these envoys, but rather figures like this senior who lived in seclusion and anonymity; these people were Ye Luo's true objective.

Though Lan Yin knew very well that regardless of whether Baili Qiongshang offered herself in marriage or not, He Shi Gui would never accept her, the reality was that Baili Qiongshang had kissed He Shi Gui, even if she had only kissed his hand.

The cultivators present, including Mu, were dumbfounded. What on earth was that? Was General Turtle condensing an energy bomb?

Simultaneously, a sharp, piercing pain stabbed deep within Xiao Yu's soul, feeling as though ten thousand needles were piercing through it.

"Whether it is or not, you know it in your heart better than I do. If you still want a shred of dignity, disappear from my sight right now!" Li Yishan raged.

Even in the face of life and death, Nicole could not understand why she was paying attention to such a detail. Knowing it was futile, she still reflexively raised her protective shield.

Hearing this, Lan Zijian cursed inwardly. Originally, Yue Shanjian had applied heavy makeup to conceal her identity, but now look—she hadn't managed to trick the enemy and instead ended up drawing the city gate guards' attention. What on earth should he do now?

"A magical artifact? What is it used for?" Not understanding what the term "magical artifact" actually referred to, Aimu asked again.

At that time, Huang Guolun had broken his commitment to Duck Shop's second music special, leaving Zhao Jing, Zhao Yan, and the others utterly astonished.

To be exposed and yet remain this arrogant... Heh, who did he think he was? A prince? An heir apparent? How dare he order Qi Liang, the distinguished envoy of the Prince of Nanling's estate, to kneel while speaking?

Chen Hongjun had no idea what matter concerning him could possibly prompt officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to travel thousands of miles from the capital all the way to Haizhou just to question him, nor did he know what the Ministry might have to give him. But since they had already sought him out and called him by name, there was definitely business at hand. Fortunately, it did not appear to be bad news.

On a musical level, they were all deeply captivated by Leo Ku's rearranged performance.

Moreover, after being modified by Yaoyao, Shentong's encryption codes had long since changed. Consequently, no matter how intense Gao Xiong's data assault was, it still failed to breach Shentong's final core gateway or seize control of her.

Aside from all this, Li Yi also consulted with Lu Zhi regarding candidates for various local officials and reported them to the imperial court. Although Liu Hong had previously granted Li Yi the authority to independently appoint and dismiss officials within the province, Li Yi was obviously not foolish enough to truly appoint just anyone at random.
