Chapter 64 Glutinous Rice Crispy Rice

Jiang Yuan said, "The New Year is approaching, and my mom and I have been quite busy lately. We spend every day racking our brains over how to produce short videos about New Year customs, so I didn't mean to tell you not to come see me."

Only at this moment did she try to explain why she hadn't urged him to come over these past few weeks. Clearly, they had agreed beforehand to meet every weekend, yet she ended up breaking her own promise. Jiang Yuan felt a bit embarrassed, but her conscience was entirely clear; she was simply genuinely busy.

Cheng Yubai nodded.

With her hands clasped behind her back, Xia Chan inspected the cells one by one, determined to find the cell where the Yu family was imprisoned.

Before Dongfang Fengfei could be taken to the infirmary, she ran into the seven handsome youths who had rushed over. Seeing that the person who suffered an accident during alchemy was none other than Dongfang Fengfei, the seven youths hurried forward, intending to take her back to their dormitory.

The pale, hazy moonlight shone down upon her. The lips that were usually lazy and fond of smiling were now devoid of even a shred of warmth, replaced instead by a subtle, desolate chill.

In retrospect, Lu Ming joining the frontline battle could be considered the icing on the cake, given that Yunmeng was already holding the upper hand in this sector.

The crowd broke into a sudden uproar. After a flurry of discussion, seeing that no further miraculous sights appeared, they gradually dispersed to continue enjoying the lanterns and festivities.

A yellowish-brown, an emerald-green, and a deep-blue—as soon as these three flashes of seal power manifested, they transformed into three fierce eagles. Accompanied by a piercing cry, these eagles, formed from pure seal power, roared as they hurtled toward the giant flame python.

Moreover, it wasn't a matter of one second at a time; the time units were at least at the millisecond level or even lower. It was entirely impossible for human capability to manipulate this, leaving one completely at the mercy of blind luck.

Originally, the seal-power flames condensed by martial artists possessed an extraordinary degree of high temperature. Coupled with the fact that grain and other flammable items were piled here, the fire instantly became completely uncontrollable. Not to mention the grain, even the entire stone fortress was in danger of collapsing.

Looking around, the entire scene was a dense sea of people. For a fleeting second, it felt as though everyone in the world was watching them. Her heart was not just fluttering nervously; it was practically leaping seventy or eighty times a minute. She felt utterly weak all over, unable to even move, and had no idea whether her legs had turned to jelly.

Looking at the exact 1100 gold pieces on her person, she realized that if she kept these blue and purple items, she could make a net profit of at least four or five hundred.

Mo Qumeng, dressed in a black gown, leaned against the wall with her black hair cascading down her back. A hint of a smile played at the corners of her lips, and her eyes were filled with anticipation.

Gradually, it also grew fond of these movements. However, as time went on, it discovered that these people's movements were always just those few repetitive ones. Growing tired of watching, Big Fatty decided to go elsewhere to watch people fight.

"Great King, Jiangnan in May is filled with lingering drizzle, black-tiled roofs and vermilion walls, standing pines and distant green mountains. The river is like a jade belt, and the flying boats are like shuttles. It truly is like a fairyland," Qian Zhao praised directly.

Half a month later, Zhao Yun returned to Xiangyang alone on horseback. Liu Yong's personnel for entering the capital were fully assembled, and everything was ready. Meanwhile, the defense along the defensive line between Cao's army and the Jingzhou army grew tense. Although the weather was already extremely cold, the atmosphere had become one of swords drawn and bows bent.

However, the Asura Continent had long known of the existence of the Five Forbidden Lands, so how could they not have made any preparations at all?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chong, who was already wearing a look of utter grievance, almost failed to hold back a mouthful of blood from spewing out.

"As a captive, what plans could I have? If you've come to humiliate this general, then forget it. Though I am incompetent, I am still a man of honor—rather death than humiliation." Cai Mao looked calmly at Liu Yong, entirely devoid of his previous anger.

Finally, the prominent figure from the General Temple was about to arrive at Azure Heaven City. It was an elder of the General Temple, yet his status was such that even the usually elusive master of the Azure Heaven City Alchemy Temple did not dare to be negligent, personally leading the elders and various stewards out of the city to welcome him.

The stone was not large, radiating chaos energy throughout, bearing a striking resemblance to a dragon egg, but it was definitely not a dragon egg.
