Volume 1, Chapter 51: How About You Actually Shave Your Head?

"That is wonderful. Is Lan Xuan'er's body still at the Prince Regent's Mansion?" Xiao Zhihua picked up her teacup, gently skimming the tea leaves floating on the water's surface, her expression relaxing somewhat.

Lin De pointed to the house in front of him and said in a calm tone, "This is the house I found. Because of the owner's situation, I was able to buy it at such a low price." Though there had been plenty of trouble along the way.

However, when he caught sight of the jade pendant on Cheng Zilu's chest that she was about to take off, his pupils suddenly constricted sharply. At the same time, an invisible aura instantly radiated outward, causing even Cheng Zilu to raise her gaze toward him in slight astonishment.

Zhang Yicheng was feeling rather stifled himself and had almost agreed to the young man, never expecting things could turn out this way.

"Xu Lingling, what am I supposed to say about that mouth of yours? Was I not pretty before?" Ye Qingqing threatened Xu Lingling.

"Could it be that if the head of the family refuses to go, you intend to drag him back by force?" Murong Feiyu put down his teacup and smiled as he looked at Murong Yunling.

A tall man in black with a masked face, along with six others dressed as imperial guards, appeared before him.

"It's fine. We'll arrive at Xizhou City tomorrow anyway. Besides, since this is my wife's first time showing off such culinary skills, I must taste it." Zhang Yicheng's eyes brightened slightly. He always felt there were countless skills Xuan Yunjin possessed that he remained unaware of, constantly surprising him.

"Yunran, let me first introduce you to our mission this time. A B-rank mission: gather Dark Night Spider silk. Dark Night Spider activities are typically concentrated in the inner perimeter, so this time we will be entering the inner sanctum of the Misty Forest." Leng Ying instructed Xiran after registering her as a mercenary.

Hearing this, Ting Yan's anger flared up between his brows, and he instinctively opened his mouth to speak, but swallowed his words upon catching a glimpse of Weixi.

The two of them circled around each other with mutual glances. The Japanese sergeant was inwardly pondering why his opponent across from him had assumed such a strange stance.

"I have a husband of my own, do I need yours?" Jiang Qiao retorted directly, rendering Sheng Cheng completely speechless.

"So you're saying this child is truly here to be a third wheel?" Mo Feibai drew in a sharp breath, wincing slightly as he cleverly steered away from the subject.

He felt as though he were embracing a warm body, his hands resting unhindered against the other person's chest while the faint fragrance of hair lingered in his nostrils.

Especially since Gao Hongming and his men had completely annihilated the Japanese Ninth Brigade two days ago, more and more people within the First War Zone Command had begun harboring the notion that "I can do this just as well."

Furthermore, since a treasure of this caliber could exist here, a second treasure of the same rank could equally exist.

The realm of cultivation in the past was far more cruel than it is today. After all, the rules had not been fully established back then, and the major factions were still in their developmental stages, lacking strong constraints over the cultivators.

Seltzer looked at her curious expression, yet was unable to reach out and touch her fluffy head.

Standing a hundred meters tall, its structural design was entirely mechanical and completely inconsistent with the Quantum Shadow. It wielded a giant sword and resembled a human figure.

It was true that Theresa wanted to help Mu Qingfeng, and it was equally true that she hoped Mu Qingfeng would join Schicksal to help fight against the Honkai.

In the dead of summer, this young man wore a designer suit and Nike sneakers. Wearing sneakers with a suit was one thing, but to top it off, he had dyed his hair a pineapple green resembling a massive patch of cotton candy, and wore a pair of dark sunglasses. What was even more bizarre was that he wore golden hoops in both ears.

Pumpkin explained the situation on my end, and Master Xiangtan agreed almost without hesitation, saying he would help. However, he charged a fee for catching ghosts, demanding two thousand yuan right off the bat.

Chen Yang genuinely believed this. What he could impart was nothing more than Xingyiquan, and not everyone was suited to study Xingyiquan.

Bai Rui cast a cold glance at Gu Tingjun and Su Jiuan, then followed Gu Tingyao away.

This Empress Dowager Xuanyi, though not the emperor's biological mother, still held considerable status within the harem. Her maternal family was quite powerful, being the full elder sister of the Marquis of Kyoto. One could say her position in the harem was as solid as a rock.

Yet her heart was overflowing with joy, filled with an indescribable sense of happiness that bubbled out like warm hot spring water, nourishing and warming the chambers of her heart.

Even though these heavenly stairs would not harm flesh and skin, after a thousand kowtows, Changqin felt her head spinning and her body drenched in sweat. Her constitution was already inferior to an ordinary person's; Junzhu had warned her beforehand that fortunately she was not a mortal, or her soul would have long since perished.

Though she knew not what would transpire next, Hopkins had to be eliminated at all costs! The only saving grace was that the seal on the cliff wall was sufficiently sturdy, so no one feared that the terrifying destructive power of so many fused sword techniques would shatter the seal. The only thing destined to be blasted to pieces was Hopkins.

Yet who exactly was this taboo figure, capable of making such a powerful celestial clan so fearful that even uttering his name constituted an unforgivable sin?

Trembling, Su Jiuan retrieved a white jade bottle from her bosom and swallowed the remaining Nine-Flower Dew Pills within. After taking the medicine, a trace of warmth emanated from her stomach and spread outward to her limbs.

Besides, at this moment, let alone finding her enemies for revenge, simply reaching Yingdu City safely would already be considered the greatest stroke of luck.

Young Master Jin Yuanbao was also startled awake by the commotion. Upon opening his eyes, he watched as his own handsome, fair face slowly flushed red with fury.
