Even more shocked than the Heavenly Being were Qingkong Wanzhao. Their eyes were wide as copper bells, staring in horror and dread at Yang Qingxuan’s hands, where countless powers of the world swirled within boundless golden light.

Shen Mingzhu had no choice but to go and change her clothes, while the Grand Princess remained unbothered, sitting in the main hall to wait.

"They explained that it was people from the Ruins of Heaven who, coveting the magical treasures carried by our envoys, killed them. Now, they have sent the culprits to us for disposal, hoping to appease our wrath," the soul-wielder said respectfully.

However, even if those people would pay lip service to imperial decrees, they would never openly disrespect him; such is the unwritten rule of officialdom.

I am working hard to bring the update times forward. Ahem, I expect to return to morning updates in about two days.

Ultimately, the arrogant attitude of "Woodchipper" had provoked Bolang, making him eager to teach the other a lesson. Moreover, Bolang had only ever watched "Woodchipper" fight others and had never crossed blades with him personally, so testing the waters was a necessity.

Han Danzi confirmed his short-term goal: to topple He Baicai within three months. As for whether He Baicai could actually achieve this ambition, that would depend on Han Danzi’s next moves.

By the evening of the third day, Linghu Qianjiao and Linghu Baimei emerged from their meditative states one after another. Both felt their strength had clearly improved, bringing them one step closer to breaking through to the next realm.

"Why wouldn't it be a thief's? Don't thieves use daggers? You mages have staves, why do you need to snatch a dagger?" Li Chong had been prepared to click 'Need,' but upon hearing Zhang Ming say this, he paused. He didn't click 'Pass,' however, as if intending to argue the point.

Yet, to everyone’s surprise, the Gold-ranked master did not rush to leave, but instead looked at Bai Ye with a faint expression.

Although Gu Lingge did not particularly enjoy tidying up, she never misplaced important items. This was one of the few things Gu Lingge was certain of.

"Investigate it first, just be careful not to get yourself caught up in it." No sooner had the words fallen than word came from outside that Lanyi had arrived with a verbal decree from Qing Ruifan.

The "Silent Guardian," a type of magical device, was originally designed to return all energy within a certain range to zero, including the four elements. In other words, it could restrict the use of Force by fighters. It was a great invention by alchemists to declare war on fighters through magical devices.

"That is true. In this weather, one should warm wine, stew green plums, and wrap oneself in silk furs by a golden hearth. Clinking cups, trading toasts, and the soft chime of porcelain—what other sounds could one possibly need?" Qing Jingyao glanced seemingly unintentionally toward the direction of Chunlan Hall and Chenlai Palace, her voice as light as a whisper.

After a few seconds of shock following his sorrowful expression, Demos’s demeanor gradually returned to calm. He stopped emitting any mental waves, instead using his hands to smooth out Calete’s long hair and adjust her sleeping posture, a gentle yet sorrowful smile on his face.

Setting aside whether Qing Ruifan would punish Murong Zhi, he had to carefully consider whether the matter was even true.

Upon hearing this, Yue Qingfeng suddenly froze. He seemed to be struggling to remember something: "I am Yue Qingfeng, but where do I come from? Why do I exist at all?"

If El had possessed such a gem to assist him when dealing with the Zither Spirit, the Zither Spirit's abilities would have been completely harmless to him.

The Major, nearly vomiting blood from rage, ordered the communications soldier to send a telegram immediately. He commanded that two of the three squadrons remaining at the West Gate—originally intended to intercept the Eighth Route Army fleeing toward Changzhi—be recalled. Except for one squadron left to monitor the West Gate, all other forces were to be deployed to the North City to participate in the attack.

Because Minato Namikaze was, to a certain extent, a man marrying into the family, both sides had reached a tacit understanding: his first child with Kushina Uzumaki would take the Uzumaki surname. This was vital to Kushina, who was determined to restore the glory of the Uzumaki clan.

For the sake of corporate development, it is quite normal for some government officials to become irrational.

When she struck, boundless purple energy surged forth, transforming into blades that shredded space.

Looking at the luxurious decorations inside the carriage and hearing the sound of hooves outside, he knew that everything happening to him was real.

In a word: if Mei Ruo died a violent death, all the survivors she controlled would have to be buried with her; not a single one would live.

Yingchun smiled, too. Although she was a modern person who had transmigrated, she had never been a mother before. For her, the child was an unexpected surprise.

"You'll be back the day after tomorrow. What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you." She rested her head against his chest, listening to his heartbeat.

Yingchun took Sun Shaozu’s hand and entered the inner room. After blowing out the lamp and lying down, Yingchun’s willow-leaf brows could not help but furrow.

It was Mad Lion who had struck. Seeing Gao Yue staring at him with eyes spitting fire, he didn't take offense, but instead pointed at her and burst into laughter.

"Me?" She pointed at the tip of her nose, somewhat disbelieving. Since when had she become a person capable of shouldering such heavy responsibilities in Xu Xian’s eyes?

"Why is she here? And inside the Grand Ritual of Departing Light formation? What exactly is her status in Country J?" A barrage of questions flooded Han Xiao’s mind like a tide, leaving him momentarily bewildered.

"For now, we can only determine that they are an intelligence organization and track their transaction data. Unexpectedly, the transaction volume of this intelligence organization is the largest among the three websites, with daily transactions amounting to at least fifty million Euros."

Manager Sun saw the matter clearly through the surveillance cameras and knew that the fault did not lie with Chen Xinghai and his group. However, because the car model had powerful backing, he found it difficult to assign blame, thinking it best to let the matter drop if both sides stopped pursuing it. After all, offending either party would only bring trouble upon himself.

"With my sister’s build, you lot are still counting on her? Forget it! If she doesn't end up draining money from the house, that's already a blessing," Li Huang said.

Lixin spent the entire day in this state of helpless acceptance. The next day, Lixin announced that they would first start by offering family crafts in ironware, ceramics, and fireworks, postponing the rest. This finally relieved Lixin of her gloom.

"As long as your shop maintains a good reputation, who knows? Perhaps even rarer treasures might appear in the future," Yao Muchen shrugged, nodding lightly in a seemingly casual manner.

Just then, intense combat fluctuations erupted once again on the ground outside the dungeon. It was clear that the battle between the Pei and Wang families had resumed; after all, the self-detonation of the fire prison could not kill everyone, and once the aftershocks faded, their conflict would inevitably continue.
