Chapter 25: The King of Flowers

Page 1 of 3
Within the Rongguo Mansion, Wang Xifeng could hardly suppress her excitement even after returning home from the flower banquet. As a lady of the house, she could not wander freely outside the Yunxiang Pavilion, so she had observed the proceedings from the private compartments above, yet the scene below had been perfectly clear to her.

"Old Matriarch, I have truly learned today what it means to say there are people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens. The entire floor was filled with peonies; it was a grand display indeed," she said, wishing she could return to that scene at once.

Regrettably, even Daoist Hong Hong could not truly peer through the heavenly secrets surrounding Mu Bai’s primordial spirit body.

Hearing Mi Zixuan’s words reignited hope in the hearts of Er Lan and the others. They all prayed that Mi Zixuan would defeat Big Bear, sparing them from a life on the run and allowing them to remain here.

Hijikata, finding the situation unbearable, intended to mediate the dispute between the townspeople and have Chizuru return to the garrison, fearing that the crowded streets might lead to further unnecessary trouble.

Mi Zixuan finally understood why Xuan Ying had summoned him. If the hospital refused to pay, this fellow would keep coming back to cause a scene every day—who could endure that? Yet, there was little one could do against him.

"Damn you, you wretch! How can you break all my attacks?" Seeing her strikes rendered useless, Ming Ruzhu’s face twisted into a savage mask, her eyes flickering with panic.

Long Fan looked at Yang Shichao with a sneer and declared arrogantly, "Who said I wanted to be a Demon King? Who said my ambitions are limited only to the demon race? My goal is the entire world. Demons, humans, and devils—all three races shall bow to me. I am the master of this world! Once I rule this world, why would I fear a lack of subjects?"

Tang Yu had been in seclusion for days, and even he did not know when he would be able to return.

The tree was not tall, perhaps the height of a man, its body crystal clear as if carved from blood diamonds, radiating a bewitching and exquisite beauty.

However, she dared not disturb the confrontation between Munakata Reisi and the Colorless King. She attempted to input Munakata Reisi’s birthday, but the system prompted that the password was incorrect.

"Over a hundred pounds? Heh, so you refuse to shed tears until you see the Yellow River, is that it?" Huang Donglai smiled faintly, his hands moving with such blinding speed that only afterimages and the whistling of wind remained.

Moreover, his goal of reaching the Karst Forest seemed to have been established long before he encountered that member of the demon race.

Guo Yuan, eager to prove himself, was incensed by Xu Song’s words. With a thunderous roar, he charged straight at him.

"He had even assassinated a ninth-grade master, though the end result was that he was defeated by the ninth-grade warrior and nearly killed."

The Third Hokage’s expression was also grim. It had been agreed that the matter would be handled by the Fourth, yet he found himself intervening. He understood well that by inserting himself in the middle, he was making things difficult for the Fourth.

"The reason I appeared here disguised as a pervert is because, some time ago, I noticed many wounds on my sister’s body, and she would cough up blood from time to time. Whenever I asked, she would say nothing."

She wanted to offer words of comfort, but it felt inappropriate. Yet, seeing the wounded expression on Xiao Jing’s face, her heart ached.

Upon hearing this, Liu Shi’s expression shifted once more, and a cold sweat began to bead on his forehead.

The sight of Nie Ting effortlessly killing four men in the midst of conversation that night was witnessed by every spectator.

By Ji Sheng’s own estimation, he had enough to evolve his cultivation to the late stage of the Reincarnation Silver Body, and perhaps even challenge the realm of the Reincarnation Golden Body.

The four of them included Lei Mo. Truth be told, Jin Shi did not particularly want to travel with him; given his volatile nature, one could never be sure when he might give someone a jolt, and that was a sensation no one enjoyed.

Even the head of the family, Xu Zhengyan, joined the fray himself, with Xu Youran hurriedly assisting.

Back in the countryside, he had slept on wooden planks; sleeping on desks and chairs was an everyday occurrence for him.

His aura erupted to its peak, and his spear glowed with a brilliant light, piercing the third layer of the Extreme Frost Seal like a rainbow striking the sun.

Meanwhile, Shen Nanfeng, who had long suspected Shen Hao’s identity, stood frozen in shock.

He could hardly believe his ears; this sudden surprise left him feeling dazed.

This was the Demon Suppression Division, an institution dedicated to maintaining the stability of the Great Qin, with its primary duty being the execution of demons, monsters, and phantoms—though it certainly had its side ventures.

The factory manager would likely vent his anger on them, and there was no telling what punishments might follow.

Indeed, what kind of big shot could possibly be in all of Rongcheng to make these two wait at the door?

"Brother Saiye, Mr. Jiang is an expert at identifying raw gemstones!" Qin Yunjie said with a chuckle, recounting how Jiang Chengtian had selected raw stones at his factory just a while ago.

In an instant, he caught a faint, elegant scent of orchids, a fragrance that seemed to possess a magical power capable of soothing the soul.

Secondly, with the presiding elder Zhang Zhizhen here, a single finger from him could obliterate him. If he were to engage Long Pingfan in battle, the elder might just snuff him out if he felt the slightest bit displeased.

Elder Xie Yun’s face turned deathly pale. If Long Pingfan died, how could he answer to Gui Zhenzi? More importantly, Long Pingfan had once allowed him to study the Profound-grade Superior Spirit Gathering Array, a debt of gratitude of no small measure.

"The cultivation method of the Rabbit lineage draws entirely upon the power of moonlight. Cheng Yu, you can do it." Mi Tu encouraged Cheng Yu with all her might.

"Human effort is the decisive factor; hope is better than no hope at all. By the way, I’ve heard Senior Zhuang mention that Senior Zhang suffered great grievances in the past. Do you know what that’s all about?" Having heard Zhuang Bieli mention this more than once, Cheng Yu decided to ask Mi Tu to see if she knew the inside story.

"Let go of me!" Cheng Yu clung tightly to the invisible entity before him. Sensing the increase in strength in Cheng Yu’s grip, the thing could not help but grit its teeth.
