Chapter 53: Jiang Yueshan's Regret

Several days passed, and Qingcheng remained peaceful and serene.

The incident regarding the Fu Corporation’s building radiating a golden light late at night had dominated Qingcheng’s headlines for two consecutive days.

Chen Fan flipped through the planning document, which contained the blueprint for the renovation of the Twin-Face Mountains.

Seeing the plan to transform the Twin-Face Mountains into an amusement park, Chen Fan couldn't help but marvel at old Fu's decisiveness.

However... judging by the divination signs, it was an immensely auspicious omen.

......

Inside the Shangyang Palace, two middle-aged men wearing court robes stood conversing with the Emperor, who was seated upon the throne. Upon receiving the guard's announcement, the Emperor said in a deep voice, "Have them enter."

"It still won't do," Zhang Qisong persisted, unwilling to let go, knowing that such a wonderful opportunity did not present itself every time.

The very first thing Qin Bin did after stepping out of the ancient painting's space was to use a pair of scissors to chop off all his long hair. After burning it to ashes in a single fire, he quietly slipped out of his house and casually found a barbershop.

Pushing open the bedroom door, Mu Qingya furrowed her brows sharply as a foul, suffocating stench rushed toward her, its acrid pungency almost making her vomit.

Both of these men were former masters of talisman arts with extraordinary mystical techniques. Qin烈 sought them out primarily for the Ten-Extremity Dome Array.

In the end, Shangguan Jue bid fifty-one thousand. Chen Yue's expression grew increasingly unsightly, and a sharp pain flared in her chest. She cast a cold glance at Shangguan Jue and said, "It seems I truly cannot match Young Master Shangguan's affection for Miss Li. She is yours."

No matter what happens, my heart will always be with you. Even if my physical body is not by your side, my heart will never stray far... Qingya, do you understand?

"My two sisters, the husband has been captured by the elder sister," Liu Ru-shi cried out in front, acting as if she were loudly proclaiming that the Heavenly Khagan had been taken prisoner. "Husband, what is this you're doing?" Xu Xiner found it utterly incredible to see her husband escorted over by a senior sister dressed entirely in red.

"She might be a little anxious about the engagement," Auntie Xu said with a trace of guilt. Over the past few days, Ling Yang had been playing video games all night long.

Eileen was dumbfounded. She felt somewhat baffled by Shao Yiluo's tone—it was the tone of a close family member, something she disliked, intensely disliked, as if he were trying to act like her older brother. She didn't want that, really didn't want that, and loathed it with a passion.

Fu Jingxing did not put her on the spot. He clinked glasses with her, yet without uttering a single word, he calmly averted his gaze.

To be able to conceal poison inside a golden hairpin meant it had to be done with extreme subtlety—something ordinary people could never discover—which also proved it was a most lethal and violent poison.

Meng Xuan hurriedly inquired about the location of Fang Shi'er's quarters. The bandit leader assumed Meng Xuan was truly "infatuated" with Fang Shi'er, and since Meng Xuan was his prisoner anyway, he told him everything in detail. Meng Xuan silently committed it to memory.

A-Yun retreated, his body skimming low across the ground as he flew toward Ling Yurou. With arms outspread, he caught her in an embrace. Ling Yurou let out a startled cry and tightly wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Do I look good? Fu Jingyao, do you think I resemble one?" Jian Xinzhu ran up to him, twirled around, and looked at him with eyes full of anticipation.

"Crab?" The old lady looked at Dr. Ma in bewilderment and couldn't help asking, "How come you didn't mention any of this when you took my pulse this afternoon?" Dr. Ma stammered and failed to come up with an answer.

—Liao Qing'er, I've had a secret crush on you for four whole years. If you don't marry me this instant, I'm going to commit seppuku!

If he guessed correctly, that old man Wu should merely be a mortal physician who could only diagnose injuries through pulse-reading, and thus predicted his own inability to cultivate in the future.

Just as Lin Qingsheng introduced them one by one, Qingchengzǐ and all the others changed color completely, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"Go, attacking ghost! Use all your power, use superpower!" the opposing trainer shouted. Naturally, they needed to rely on a move to boost their power; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to withstand the Steelix's double-edge attack.
