Chapter 26: Visiting Two Dead Men

Ling Fei hopped onto her hoverboard and glided out the door. "Listen up, you little chicks. Keep a close eye on my little jellyfish. If it suffers even the slightest scratch, you won't have an easy time of it."

The staff members shuddered. Ling Fei’s methods of punishment were far too varied; they would certainly protect the beautiful jellyfish hovering above them with their lives.

The cloud jellyfish drifted along happily, its tentacles occasionally brushing against a staff member’s shoulder, making them feel as if Ling Fei were watching them from behind. It was terrifying.

"Can such a stone really be faked?" Qin Yue and Tang Han both widened their eyes. Though they had seen it, they still found it hard to believe.

The three sect leaders looked in the direction he was pointing; faint sounds of slaughter could already be heard from the opposite bank.

Having made this resolution, he lowered his head and saw the great Princess looking at him with concern.

When Gu Minghao heard Gu Yuze say this, a flicker of malice crossed his eyes. Gu Minghao assumed Gu Yuze hadn't noticed his ill intent, but he was clearly overthinking it.

Afterward, Tang Han slowly intensified his psychic vision until it was just enough to see clearly. In his mind, this would prevent others from noticing the strange transformation in his eyes, and perhaps, things would appear as they normally did.

With her loud cry, the ball of yarn shot out, instantly colliding with the flaming palm. The impact shattered the palm, sending scattered flames and energy sweeping outward, spreading for thousands of kilometers in a spectacular display.

"Move out." Peng Cheng signaled two of his tall personal guards, who slammed the gate open. Following them, twelve elite Tiger and Leopard Cavalry soldiers surged into the quiet courtyard in two columns.

The change happened so suddenly that Yang Dongqing was caught off guard. In his perception, countless fluctuations were emanating from all around him.

The mother only then realized what had happened; without even pausing to thank them, she hurriedly picked up her son and ran.

"Enough talk," Zhan Hu bellowed. "Take this! Tiger—Soul—Crystal—Slash!" Pointing his sword tip downward, he lifted it upward, causing the surrounding air currents to converge continuously. His blade turned crystalline and translucent, growing larger as he poured his battle energy into it.

In matters like this, Liang Qingmei was surprisingly in sync with her, choosing to ignore them entirely, acting as if they didn't exist without the slightest ripple of emotion on her face.

Upon hearing the sound, Wuge immediately rose from the ground and favored Su Peisheng with a shallow, gentlemanly smile.

Turning back to see his brother acting up again, Wuge felt that all the effort he had spent calming him down just moments ago had been in vain.

Though he spoke of her not daring to do it, he was nervous himself. He had heard that if the first time was a failure, it would cast a shadow over their future married life. Perhaps he should have a drink too?

Chu Yunling had not expected Hua Yu to address him as "Third Brother" so directly, effectively asserting her superiority in status without a trace of effort.

Once the holographic pod closed and the brief sensation of dizziness passed, he opened his eyes to find himself already inside the game world.

Gu Mian didn't know what to say for a moment and shyly brushed back her messy hair.

The Empress said calmly, "Very well. Now that Consort Ning and Concubine Han are pregnant, I will naturally take extra care of you both. The imperial heirs are the priority. Concubine Han, you may rest assured; the Marquis of Loyal Valor is a pillar of the Emperor's court, and the Emperor will certainly look after you well."

Inside the cage lay a dark red silhouette, its scales like sharp shields rising and falling rhythmically with its breath; it was clearly some sort of ferocious beast.

Entering the black hole, everything before them plunged into darkness. They felt as though they were in a narrow passage, wide enough for only one person, and relied on intuition to walk for nearly ten minutes.

Zhou Yi remained speechless. As soon as Zhou Huan cried out for Wang Qingya to save him, her face had turned black—though, unfortunately, she wore a mask, so no one could see.
