Chapter 140: The Blue Potion

As water disperses and light converges, they complement and harmonize, giving birth to the iridescent mist. Although the mist ray is a magical beast of both water and light affinities, it clearly leans more toward the light.

The rarity of the mist ray is in no way inferior to that of a mermaid. The mermaid Senior Sister Eve fished from the Dream Realm has been wandering near the center of the lake island. Qi Xiao has inadvertently seen the traces she left behind several times, indicating she frequently visits the island's edge.

Though it is unclear what purpose this mermaid serves or why she is kept in the lake, one can assume Senior Sister Eve...

In ancient China, merchants held low status regardless of the era, and few operated independently. Most were affiliated with a powerful official or noble, or the primary operator was merely a trusted servant within such a household.

"It's nothing, Mom and Dad are just watching a movie," Jenny said, looking a bit flustered as she spoke to Dennis.

Zhang Tianhao looked at Bai Yutang with eyes full of hatred, spat out a mouthful of blood, and collapsed to the ground, his life fading away.

Seeing the hundred cavalrymen of the bandits preparing their assault formation, He Bai knew they had made their choice. After calling out, he and his twenty guards, along with the Zhen family general Zhen Ge, leaped off their horses. Using the steeds as cover, they drew their bows and placed their arrows in the most accessible spots.

A breeze blew by, and Qingtian immediately covered his mouth and nose. Now he understood how these phantom spirits could silently infiltrate the human body.

Furthermore, archers on both wings rained arrows down upon the enemy flanks, while the infantry in the vanguard charged into the enemy cavalry, hacking and thrusting. By the time a shaken Hua Xiong was pulled back by Zhao Cen and prepared to order a counterattack, the main forces of He Bai and Huang Zhong had already joined the fray. The three thousand Xiliang iron cavalry, left to fend for themselves, had completely collapsed.

While boiling the water, Yang Tingting looked at the water successfully coming to a boil thanks to the red-hot stones, lost in thought.

Cen Jiunian and the man limped downstream along the creek. After walking no more than a few hundred steps, Cen Jiunian noticed something strange about the man. Although he was trying his best to endure, for some reason, the aura he exuded felt familiar to her.

"Mommy, Mommy, do I look good in this?" Wang Zhenzhen twirled in her graduation gown and asked.

"Do you really think I'm the kind of person who would knock on the door while others are busy doing that?" Gu Yu turned his head to look at her, half-annoyed and half-amused.

He waved his hands repeatedly, helped Lu Xueqi up, and asked her not to address him as "Master."

Otherwise, the lightest consequence would be damaged meridians and a compromised foundation; the worst would be an explosion of essence and qi, resulting in certain death.

After all, thanks to the system's boost, the attraction for customers had doubled, and the number of people visiting the shop had indeed increased significantly.

In the northwest, both officials and rebels were gripped by anxiety, fearing they might be the next Nanzhou. In other regions, vigilance toward Princess Duanrong instantly rose by several levels.

The other man screamed, "Zhongshi!" as his long sword danced like a madman’s, desperate to break through and fight Huang Shaohong to the death.

They all understood the reason, yet they wanted to explain but could not find the words, for they truly did not know what to say.

Opening the system's notification, Li Sao discovered that the Wutong Flame had not completely perished after all.

After attaining immortality, his immensely powerful divine sense expanded, instantly grasping the dire crisis unfolding in the outside world.

Tang Shizhe smiled slightly; he knew that sooner or later, human nature would overcome brainwashing, and someone would surely be unable to bear the cruelty.

Previously, the Bamboo Demon had given him ten low-grade divine stones, and selling one God-General Pill had earned him another twenty. With one God-General Pill still unused, Chu Feifan wanted to see just what level of cultivation he could break through to.

This was also why, after escaping and thinking things through, the ascetic monk, despite his severe injuries, did not elevate the threat level of Xie Feihong to an extreme degree. Calling upon friends and allies was one of the primary reasons he intended to eliminate Xie Feihong in the shortest time possible.
