Chapter 169: Preparation

In the morning, Li Qingyun and Dabao thoroughly cleaned the house from top to bottom, making sure everything was spotless.

Seeing the bare windows, she remembered a piece of fabric in her spatial dimension that matched the interior style perfectly. She could use it to make a few curtains to block out the summer sun and the winter wind, which would also look very pleasant.

She could also make a matching coffee table runner out of the same fabric, adding a touch of artistic flair and cozy ambiance.

Back in the village, it hadn't been appropriate to decorate the home with such bourgeois touches, but living in the military compound now, it didn't really matter.

She could finally decorate her home entirely to her own taste.

The only things she knew and could rely on to help herself were these. All she could do was protect herself from infections caused by unsanitary conditions; as for the rest, she just had to let go of her worries. Come blessing or disaster, she would have to face it.

Because of the incident involving Yin Zhaotian, the True Essence Sword Sect had fallen out with Lin Junyu and his group, so they gave the people of the Profound Heaven Sect the cold shoulder and gathered in an open space of their own. Before the True Essence Sword Sect could even finish setting up camp, the members of the righteous alliance arrived in a mighty and imposing procession led by Situ Feng.

At that moment, Grandfather let out a sharp roar and kicked the heavy iron threshold lying to the side. The iron threshold slid right in front of the female ghost's feet, causing her to trip and tumble to the ground.

I nodded with a solemn expression, said nothing more, hailed a cab, and headed straight for Candy Bar. To my surprise, as I pushed open the door, Su Yichen slipped inside right behind me.

What a pity that he had only just broken through to the eighth rank of the Celestial Immortality realm; even after drinking this cup of Profound Frost Plum Blossom Tea, he would not be able to achieve an immediate breakthrough.

A single plum blossom floated amidst the tea, blending with the scalding spiritual spring water to emit a unique, delicate fragrance.

No wonder Senior Sister wouldn't let me practice martial arts—such fist techniques held little meaning for me. Yet, seeing the kind of fist technique Li Jiang used was enough to prove that true martial arts skills could also be terrifying. A martial artist who could channel blade-like qi into their fists was fully capable of going toe-to-toe with cultivators.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Yi immediately glanced at Zhu Boren, deeply astonished. He never expected Zhu Boren to be able to maintain such composure now. Truly, after a parting of three days, one must look at someone with entirely new eyes; it seemed he would have to treat him with cautious respect from now on.

As he struck a match, I heard the crisp scratch of the matchstick against the phosphorus strip on the box. I put down my bowl and glared angrily at Grandpa.

Li Mingyang still remembered how, back when he had become a senior executive at Penguin Video and returned to his alma mater for a speech, the school leaders had greeted him personally. How high-spirited and full of vigor he had been back then!

"That's right, this also belongs to the Briar Family," the baron sighed, picking up the candelabra from the table nearby.

Having received the telegram, Cao Bing was in high spirits and immediately made his deployments, ready to make direct arrests the moment the targets arrived in Shanghai.

At that very moment, that dazzling radiance appeared in the horizon once again, accompanied by a boundless killing intent surging overwhelmingly toward this direction. This time, it was the assault of the entire elite force of the Heavenly Eagle Clan!

As the words fell, with a loud splash, Bu Yue plunged into the water and swam rapidly toward the spot where the swordfish had sunk.

Hearing this, a flash of warm light crossed Xiao Feng's eyes as he respectfully said, "This subject will certainly devote himself entirely and not fail the Princess's great trust." With that, he respectfully backed out of the room.

In the past, he would never have dared to speak such words, but today Yan Jingheng had caused him to lose face in front of so many people, and he simply could not endure it any longer.

The two of them thus engaged in a thrilling, life-and-death duel amidst the mountains. Li Yanyue struck with crisp and decisive movements, every single sword stroke containing astonishing power. Meanwhile, that fierce beast was exceptionally ferocious as well, forcing Li Yanyue to fight with all her might.

Feng Luo's complexion was somewhat pale, and her inner primordial energy was rapidly depleting. The strength of the traitor Yan Luo was simply too formidable; she found herself momentarily unable to completely suppress him.

And celebrities... even someone as famous as Yang Mi was still quite poor, being ruthlessly milked dry by her agency.

The dazzling light of the three suns shone down upon the Nine-Sun Divine Palace, where it was converted into energy and absorbed by the grand array of the main hall, transforming into easily absorbable divine power that permeated every corner within the interior of the divine palace.
