Volume 1, Chapter 49: Making Merry?

“He is Brother Li, an esteemed guest of the Prince Xian’s residence.”

Chu Yun casually explained, waving his folded fan as he spoke, “Just arrange a tasteful private room for us; a ground-level box is fine too. Surely it hasn’t been booked again, has it?”

Chu Yun was well aware that Haitang Pavilion needed to make a profit.

Even though Haitang Pavilion belonged to his father, he couldn’t act recklessly.

He had to abide by the rules here; otherwise, the first person his father would deal with would be him.

“That’s still available, of course. Young master, please follow me.”

Boss Qi glanced at Li Xian in surprise, and after committing Li Xian’s features to memory, he swayed his ample, enticing hips and led the way forward.

A distinguished guest of the Prince Xian’s residence—one could only imagine his status...

No one could predict what would happen when the resonance with plants reached its peak. For now, they could only trust Nagano’s judgment.

Now the ball was back at Yaopuzi’s feet. If he truly valued talent, he would have to propose a method beneficial to the Five Elements Sect that wouldn’t interfere with mentoring Mo Ziyuan.

Although the night wind drew the mother dragon’s breath away, during the earlier skirmish between the mother dragon and the others, several buildings and facilities had already been damaged.

Wang Chen had finished spouting nonsense and slipped away; he still had to continue speaking himself. No matter what, regaining some image was better than none.

Because of this, Brick couldn’t simply blurt out “I like them all” or “I don’t like any,” as if to prove his love was for the content itself, unlike a contrarian.

Sure enough, after another five big white units were destroyed, the sphere blinked twice before suddenly vanishing.

Could she spend money to avert disaster then? If she got dragged out again for all kinds of “education,” she truly wouldn’t survive.

They were not on the ground but suspended about twenty meters above it.

One had to say that Zhang Jie’s plea was sincere and not fabricated. Deng Min’s words added weight to it. Deng Min furrowed her brows, uncertain how to handle the matter. “Ring ring...” The telephone on Deng Min’s desk rang.

After all, think back to how they treated Liu Ningya and her sister. Especially how Liu Ningya almost died over a mere morsel.

“There are several worlds where the Magic Church reigns supreme, and many powerful clans are their allies,” Ariel said.

Yan Jinxin was stunned, but Dong Shen was not. Regardless of this man’s intentions, having someone step up to take the blame on their behalf was quite beneficial, wasn’t it?

Hu Yang’s last remark was obviously a joke, but porridge too hot is hard to swallow; many dislike porridge for this reason. The best taste comes when it’s just the right temperature.

However, this bracelet was far too conspicuous and didn’t suit her current status, so she quickly removed it and placed it inside a jade box, storing it in the system space.

Sister Na thought the same. Since it was still uncertain whether the world within the necklace would harm anyone, she gave up on trying again.

When Lin Junhao called her, Li Miaomiao suddenly realized she had been dreaming all along—a beautiful dream in which she wore ancient attire, lying in the embrace of a handsome man who kissed her with deep affection.

Within Jiapu country, the greatest opposition came from the former king’s faction centered around Bai Yu. They had Bai Yu’s father’s old retainers and various forces discontent with the rule of Laixi Ma. In the name of upholding the former king’s political doctrines, they remained neutral or opposed to Laixi Ma, naturally offending him greatly.

Watching the Azure Dragon head toward the uncharted depths of the forest, Liu Yunzhi withdrew his focus and swiftly flew toward the dimly lit path.

Fortunately, they hadn’t come to interrogate her yet, nor did they have a prison cart. They simply bound her hands.

Luo Kunyu laughed wryly, saying if Mo Qian hadn’t personally handed it to him, he would have kicked the person out long ago. “Is this a joke?”

In a secluded room, occasional harsh coughing broke the silence, alternating between light and heavy, hoarse and distressing—utterly suffocating and heart-wrenching, as if the entire lung wanted to be coughed out.

Even Huang Hansen and Feng Bai, who were braver, felt uneasy as they crossed the bridge.

When a bird is about to die, its cry is mournful. Surely the Nine-Tailed Scorpion King still retained a shred of humanity, and he wouldn’t refuse the plea of a dying man.

Lin Yufei clearly knew Yan Mumu had plans. It would be difficult to persuade her otherwise. Simply singing, dancing, and playing games for celebration wasn’t what food lovers enjoyed. The theme had to be cuisine, with other amusements as diversion, so everyone could have a good time.

Almost simultaneously upon seeing the blood-tinged foam, Li Hai’s throat immediately turned sour, feeling as if something restless in his stomach wanted to escape.

At that moment, Wang Hao’s spirit trembled. With a gathering and dispersing motion, he immersed himself into the Yin Soul Refining Formation. The layers of black mist seemed light and thin, easy to pass through by hand, but once inside one realized the space was vast beyond measure.

She knew her Buddhist cultivation wasn’t high enough to reach the realm where all obstacles from the heavens above to the netherworld below were removed. She only hoped to dispel the illusion before her through the steady chanting.

If he left the miraculous pharmacy, let alone becoming a saint or emperor, even reaching demigod status would be a miracle. He’d be lighting incense to pray for that himself.

“Her things are mine. How can you say ‘steal’? She, Su Ruyi, gave me this money, isn’t that right? I’m her mother, I gave birth to her and raised her all these years. Didn’t I have any merits or hardships? Shouldn’t she contribute something to the family?” Su Yunshi said, looking at Secretary Su with a reproachful gaze.

This was the result of her lack of diligent practice. If she took it seriously, her future prospects would be unimaginable.

Lin Muchen pondered deeply and felt it was greatly disadvantageous for them at this time. Therefore, he decided to visit Butcher Zhang, planning to go to the back mountain to see if anything there could be useful.

The two traveled quietly without words. After some time, they reached a wide gate.

Nian Junyao awkwardly scratched her nose again. Though she spoke vaguely, upon reflection, she had made her point clear.

A physiological monitor was placed beside the ward, emitting a steady electronic beep continuously from within.

Liu Yishuang turned back with a bright smile, “I want to buy a knife—a good knife, this long.” She gestured with her hand, about a foot in length.

At that moment, Wang Yueban finally understood the truth behind her soul transmigration. The mastermind behind everything was none other than this damn system.

“But!” Hong Zhaowei spoke heavily, reigniting hope in everyone’s eyes, their gaze sharp and fixed on him.

No matter what, the most urgent matter now was to find a place to settle down and continue living.

After finishing, Su Yiyan put down the phone and hurried to pack. Soon, she came downstairs wearing a beautiful dress.

When they arrived at the hotel yesterday, it was noon in the Admiration Kingdom. Now it was morning of the fourth day. He had slept all afternoon and night—the first time he had ever slept so long. Su Yiyan stretched and felt an unprecedented lightness.
