Jade is everywhere in Mandalay, with people holding up rough stones and finished jewelry for sale on almost every street.
Zhao Chen, carrying a backpack, and Tang Yan wove through the major and minor alleys, stopping to inspect whenever they came across something that caught their eye.
The architectural style here was similar to China's in the 1980s, with towering utility poles and a chaotic web of wires visible everywhere.
Generally speaking, the raw stones in Mandalay were much cheaper than those back home, and one could unearth quite a few decent pieces.
However, they were still a far cry from the high-grade treasures in Zhao Chen's mind.
Seeing this, Tang Yan comforted him, saying, "Brother Zhao, although these stones can't yield top-tier supreme pieces, mid-range items worth tens or hundreds of thousands are no problem..."
"Da Fei, why don't you thank the leader!" Xia Buluo sensed how things stood and said with a smile to Zhou Changfei.
As for Old Bai, namely Patriarch Tianming, if he had been able to subdue him, why would there have been those three hundred-year pacts, and why would he not have gone to keep the appointment in the latter two hundred years?
Leng Jun always called Zhao Haochen his master; did the man need your permission to bring anyone along?
"You kids stay right there, Old Meng and I will be right there!" Liu Yuntian shouted excitedly. But then, thinking about going from here to Poliang Mountain entirely on foot—a mountain journey of over forty kilometers—his "right there" would take at least a whole day.
"Let's go!" Casting his gaze aside toward Wu Xiaoyue, who had long been waiting impatiently, Xu Mu wore a smile on his face.
Except for the dim radiance cast by the two night-pearls before the bronze gate, the surroundings once again plunged into darkness.
"Old Meng, you know much more about this field than I do. Are you sure this is a revolving door? The kind of revolving door recorded in the unofficial histories told by Teacher Guli, which only Three Kingdoms sorcerers understood?" Liu Yuntian asked excitedly.
If it truly came to a fight to the death, he had a fifty percent certainty of slaying all the cultivators present, including Nangong Tu and the Black and White Elders.
"You'll do!" Bai Yu circled around the nine ambushing figures. The heritage of the God of Slaughter was truly extraordinary; concealing one's aura to observe masters of the same realm at close range without being detected was definitely not something an ordinary person could achieve. After taking a full circle, Bai Yu directly selected a solitary expert at the Golden Core realm.
As for the Huayua Sect, ever since Daoist Taichang handed them over to the Nan family, the master and his two disciples had never inquired about them again.

"Dao Body?" Qin Chuan said with extreme difficulty. Because on one hand he had to maintain the Dao-Enlightenment Realm, and on the other hand he had to converse with Old Ling, this was a thousand times harder than multitasking. Simply managing not to drop out of the Dao-Enlightenment Realm was already no easy feat.
A Celestial-Human Treasure Map usually contained a treasure trove, and what Zhou Wen wanted to know was what was inside the treasure. Previously, he thought it might be money, or some insights into cultivation; those things were not important to Zhou Wen.
The fierce beast's momentum was extremely close to the upper-grade spirit beast level, preventing Qin Xuan from daring to be negligent. His wrists shook continuously, weaving one net of swords after another before him, converging toward the oncoming fierce beast.
Zhao Liuru laughed until tears streamed down her face, simply unable to control herself. Wang Tian was truly a genius.
One could say that if not for her vast family estate and deep roots, she would have long harbored the thought of eradicating the Shangjin Club.
Yet even if bound together, they were no match for Zhou Wen. As a middle-grade Tiangang Realm grandmaster, with him present, they had no psychological burden upon leaving and feared no complications.
From the day Zhou Wen proposed the establishment of the Eastern Depot, he had harbored the intention of leaving Qianjing City. Only thus could he personally layout the affairs of the realm, transforming the Eastern Depot into a colossal entity truly capable of overseeing the entire world.
"Who are you?!" Kira Izuru and H檜sagi Shūhei were the first to react, raising their swords to meet the Buddhist monk.
Anyway, in this way, Ruoruo's resentment for her father's revenge would all be transferred to the Japanese. We are all descendants of the Flame and Yellow Emperors, and we ought to face our external foes together. You do well, I do well, everyone does well—Qin Shuang was quite happy to see it turn out this way.
Since the original plan had changed, instead of throwing money here, it was better to use it in a more appropriate place.
Through this encounter, Qianqian officially met the Li family. The fear Li Yunlong held toward Li Qinghuang finally subsided, but he began to develop a new vexation. His father Li Qinghuang's unusual and excessive warmth toward Qianqian planted a thorn in his heart. He wanted to throw a tantrum and act wild, but he lacked the guts when facing Li Qinghuang.
Fa Zheng turned around and nodded at the figure behind him. Although he did not know what Yunmeng Feixiang was up to, he could roughly guess that he must be setting up some sort of formation.
"The Shadow Thieves have launched a counterattack?" The two earls simultaneously voiced the thought in their hearts.
That day, while cleaning the backyard, Caiyun met a girl of exceptional beauty who spoke with extreme gentleness and hit it off wonderfully with her. From their conversation, Caiyun learned the girl's name was Mo Hen, and she invited Caiyun to come chat whenever she had free time, sighing deeply and grieving sorrowfully upon hearing Caiyun's past experiences.
She would have a century to perceive this world through a different perspective, until the end of her life finally granted her liberation.
The co-sister-in-law periodically checked to see if the children were still wearing their watches, while helping them board the vehicle herself.

With no rules of taxation, it was a world where the strong were respected. Karina naturally became a fallen city; the sole guarantee of survival here was strength. Lacking strength, even if you were a king, no one would care if you were killed here.
Right at that moment, Changfeng also rushed over, and without needing us to say anything, he discovered the target of our journey.
"Then who should go catch them?" Prompted by this hint, the person in charge developed a vague train of thought.
A stray word in the nether realm sometimes gives birth to extraordinary 'coincidences' and 'accidents' on the miracle-ridden stage of the multiverse, but how could this not also be an inevitability?
Although Wu Nan was well-informed, he was still a mortal after all, not a god, and thus he could not be omniscient or omnipotent; some matters remained unknown as to their truth or falsehood.
"Clatter!" At this moment, amidst the eager anticipation of the crowd outside, the specialty store's doors opened. Upon seeing so many people outside, the boss froze, thinking some mishap had occurred.
"Who?!" At that instant, Tang Cheng suddenly roared. Hearing the sound, the crowd looked over and saw a figure instantly dart away. Judging from the direction the figure left, he had just been trying to approach Roya!
After a short while, Long Aotian, who had given chase, also returned, though judging by his expression, it was evident he had not caught up.
Kotori, who had almost failed to maintain her persona as a well-behaved younger sister, muttered under her breath, and with one hand untied the black hair ribbon from one of her ponytails.
Looking at the crab completely carved out of its shell, it was indeed no longer an ordinary crab, but rather a crab sashimi infused with a touch of craftsmanship, or rather, a work of art.
"Not enough power! Still not enough! Give me more power! More!" Zhu Hong roared and bellowed repeatedly. The koi inner Dan continuously radiated more energy, yet it still failed to keep pace with the lightning's rate of destruction upon his physical body!
