Chapter 54: White Jade Reflecting the Moon
Perhaps the situation with the mountain splitting is quite severe? Hesi has already been out for nine days? And still hasn't returned to the palace?
Her eyelids felt as heavy as if they were weighed down by thousands of pounds of lead, desperately wanting to close, desperately wanting to close. Unable to withstand the torment, she slowly closed her eyes.
Ling Xiao, Jiang Xinghan, and Liu Jie followed the driver sent by Qian Fenjin, walked past the edge of the lobby, and entered the elevator.
However, as soon as these words left my mouth, they made me draw in a sharp breath. These two words instantly brought back feelings to someone like me who had been through countless battles! Damn, it instantly made me hot all over.
Given Li Qian's ultra-open personality and her relationship with him, would she fail to pick him up at the airport just because she was feeling unwell? She would definitely come, and she would demand that Ling Xiao ride in her car, whispering countless explicit and tender words. If she didn't do that, then she wouldn't be Li Qian.
On this day, she strummed the zither alone, stopping only when her fingertips grew painfully sore. Pushing the zither away, she leaned against the bedpost, her eyes wide open as she stared at the exquisite and translucent glass ceiling above. Overwhelmed by a sense of extreme irritation, she finally pushed open the doors of the palace and walked out of the Qinse Palace.
Such a grade, such data—even Ling Xiao's cultivation progress back then could not compare to his. However, this was of no consequence; what Ling Xiao wanted was precisely this feeling. If Boss Cat could not give him this feeling, he would instead be displeased.
Back then, when she heard the Underworld Emperor declare that the passage linking the netherworld and the Jinling aristocratic families would be permanently sealed, she had harbored resentment for a very long time. The Underworld Emperor's actions were intended for nothing more than to sever her path of return to the Heavenly Realm, so that she would rest easy and remain in the netherworld.
"Wait, what did you say? You want to help me win over my cousin?" Karen rubbed her ears, asking in disbelief.
High in the air, Sun Wukong, wielding the Ruyi Jingu Bang, did not immediately launch a counterattack against those assaulting him. Instead, he searched for the person who had sniped at him from the shadows—namely, Caitlyn, who had shot him.
With a single punch, the void at that moment seemed like a tangible object, indented by Shen Longxuan's blow. Deep within the indentation, the Asura was directly smashed into flying ash.
"Once she returns like this, she won't just be Consort Man anymore; she will be Empress Dowager Man," Chu Yue said with a slight frown.
Zhang Mingzhi's hand trembled, and he nearly dropped the bag containing the Star-Moon Stones to the ground. Shen Longxuan's appearance had been so sudden that it gave him quite a scare.
Take bustling Monaco, for instance, which is forever filled with the clamor of a decadent dreamworld. Even so, it remains incomparably real.
The checks and balances between monarch and ministers are everywhere. Although the emperor appears to favor war utmostly, anyone with a discerning eye can see that if this battle is won and the series of policies in the Northern Frontier achieve favorable results, then reform will undoubtedly be carried out with great vigor and momentum.
Looking at these people, Shen Longxuan was somewhat speechless. He was coming to understand more and more deeply the profound intentions of his mentor's wife, Bai Yuning: good things should be fought for through one's own strength, rather than being granted blindly like this.
"However, his track record is still somewhat lacking. Winning a double in the Bundesliga compared to winning the Champions League with a Portuguese team—the difference in achievement between the two is self-evident." The assistant was unimpressed with Yun Sheng.
Moreover, Valyrian steel possesses an inherent anti-magic effect and inflicts fatal damage on both wights and White Walkers. This was what Su Yuan truly valued. After all, Su Yuan would experience various different worlds in the future, and things like magic would inevitably appear again. Therefore, he conceived the idea of stockpiling Valyrian weapons.
"Reporting to Her Majesty the Empress, the Noble Consort said tonight's dance is called 'Diaochan Worships the Moon'," Head Eunuch Feng said.
Yet, it had developed deep emotional attachment to the miraculous herbs growing on its shell. Through all these passing years, only those herbs on its shell had faithfully accompanied it without ever forsaking it. Whenever it was injured, the herbs on its shell would inject powerful life force into its body to heal its wounds.
Even though Yixia was bound very tightly, she was still able to walk forward. Even though the ropes were tight, even though red marks had been dug into her legs or her skin had been scraped raw, the agonizing pain that she once felt deep in her heart was now completely disregarded.
Following that, a figure was seen flying backward out of the dust and smoke like a kite with a broken string, stirring up a long trail of dust before crashing heavily onto the ground, coughing up a mouthful of bright red blood in a wild spurt.
Wu Qian managed to restrain himself, pressing his lips together firmly just as they were about to part to comfort his restless heart.
Dongzi sprinkled unicorn powder on his blade and thrust it straight into the heart of a charging dry corpse. As soon as the powder touched the corpse, it hissed and smoked white.
Tucked into his waist was a money pouch, which was slowly swelling up. Inside it were individual wizard coins.
Looking at the two almost identical maps, Wang Yetian's thoughts churned endlessly, leaving him stunned in place for a moment.
Jun Wuji was staying right next door; if he didn't find a way to sober up soon, there was no telling what kind of beastly thing he might end up doing.
"This can't be explained in a word or two. Alright, stop asking for now; we'll talk when we get out." Without waiting for our reaction, he walked straight to the back hall behind the coffin.
"Dad, what are you..." Father Xia had never expected that his obstruction would instead prompt the old master to make up his mind, leaving him utterly speechless.
Junhao patted her comfortingly: "Don't worry, we will cultivate diligently, and we'll be able to see her eventually."
His battle realm was meant to develop itself, ultimately relying on no external objects and taking nothing from the vast universe. Within his own body lay a world; once opened, it could continuously unleash potential and possess infinite divine might.
