"Second Brother, you must be hungry too, right? Let me treat you to dinner," Yang Mimi said with another sweet smile.

Upon opening his eyes, Ye Xiu's gaze regained its confident look, and his complexion appeared much better—no longer as fatigued or pale as before.

Listening to Jing Muya's endless stream of words, Jiuer saw stars before her eyes, feeling dizzy and as though the world was spinning.

A trace of displeasure flickered between Jing Licheng's brows, and his unsatisfied expression made Jiuer cover her mouth with a chuckle as she sprawled across the sofa in uproarious laughter.

Seeing her like this, Qin Zhao knew that Yan Yan was currently extremely displeased; if he failed to heed her words right now, Qin Zhao suspected he might not survive this very evening.

"Pokong, Lieshi, lead the troops to launch attacks on the other sects. Leave this place to me; once I wrap up the battlefield, I will go and join you," said Yao Laiye.

Many people in the traditional medicine industry, and even some doctors who had nothing to do with it at all, exploited the common people's deep-rooted notion that age equates to wisdom, masquerading as veteran practitioners of traditional medicine to deceive patients.

Previously, Yu Manman had not held out much hope for victory in this match. However, seeing that the point differential remained at just two points after the second quarter, she could not help but see the possibility of winning.

"Master, which way do you think we should enter the imperial palace?" asked Xianxian. Seeing the two lagging behind, E Feng also stopped to wait.

Lying on their sleeping mats, the team members tossed and turned, clearly unable to sleep. After all, it was only a little past ten-twenty in the evening, at least two hours earlier than their usual bedtime.

"The confinement of Lady Yuan can be lifted, but the Empress's cannot!" Recalling the heartbroken look she wore on her bed that day, the Emperor felt a piercing pain in his heart, and he could not let her off so easily.

As if all her hidden thoughts had been exposed and all her scheming had come to nothing, Feng Yi's face flushed red, leaving her in a moment of utter desolation and helplessness.

Thinking this, a swirling white mist began to cloud her vision. She could not help but clutch herself tightly, burying her head deep into her knees.

The three of them, fortified by "Divine Shield" and "Stone Skin," now stood at the front, silently watching the intermediate sea monster draw near. They had gripped their longswords tightly, preparing for a head-on clash with the intermediate sea monster at any moment.

He had spent an astronomical sum of two hundred million to buy her, so even if he were to take her body, it would only be natural. Besides, wasn't she longing for such an outstanding man? At that thought, Su Mengdie nodded, a rosy blush spreading across her face.

When the mercenaries from the guild and the members of the eight noble families saw Martha approaching, they immediately felt the aura unique to Saint-level powerhouses, leaving them thoroughly shocked.

Fearing that Wu would make a major comeback, Chu abandoned Ying and relocated to Ruo. At that time, Wu relied on the strategies of Wu Xu and Sun Wu to smash the powerful Chu in the west, overawe Qi and Jin in the north, and subjugate the Yue people in the south.

Fifteen people sneered simultaneously, standing in a ruffian-like manner at the front to block Guo Lin and his companions' path, as if waiting to watch Guo Lin make a fool of himself. Daring to talk back to Young Master Yang—was he tired of living? Behind him stood the Wangyue Mansion.

With Li Yan around, even if negotiations fell through, there wouldn't be any major danger. Li Yan was someone valued by Isaac, and Guden had such a good relationship with Isaac that he would surely give Isaac that much face.

The two exchanged blows back and forth for another quarter of an hour, still unable to determine a victor. Beneath them, all living creatures had fled without a trace.

"Hello everyone, I am Su Xiyan. Because of some reasons, I missed the military training, which is a great pity," Su Xiyan introduced herself with poise and grace.

"Forget it. Chenchen, let's log off; this is too thrilling." In the face of a natural disaster, even the apex predators of the Jurassic period, the dinosaurs, were helpless, leaving Chen Feng with nothing to do but sigh at the overwhelming might.

Afterward, everyone sang and ate together. Although Su Yu's eyes did not look directly at Ding Ziyu, the corner of her gaze occasionally drifted over to monitor the situation on his side.

Reassured by the clerk, Jin Weilu bit her lip with a smile, softly whispered "Thank you," and went inside to change out of the dress.

"Humorous?" Luo Xing blinked. Looking at Qi Xiaoyu's hypocritical demeanor, she truly couldn't see how she was any better than Lin Shanshan; was it this ability to keep a completely straight face?

Venturing into the demon territories to carve out territory and establish a domain of steel and spirit was already an utterly insane notion.

In his other hand, he held a black umbrella, shielding her from the patch of sky above.

Many people rubbed their eyes and looked again closely, suspecting their eyes had just played tricks on them.

Just then, carrying his medicine box and hurrying through the door, Imperial Physician Li immediately stepped forward to bow before the Emperor. It was his turn on duty today, and just as he was dozing off, a eunuch had come to summon him, declaring it an urgent errand awaiting the Emperor's presence. Without a moment's delay, he had grabbed his medicine box and run all the way here.

Realizing their stealth had been exposed, Moji shouted, "Charge with me!" The sound of hooves rolled like thunder as they lunged toward Zheng's encampment.

The caravan entered through the manor's front gate and left through the back; in less than an hour, all the grain was unloaded into the granaries within the manor. The quantity of six thousand shi even exceeded expectations by sixty shi. Qian Si and Feng Dingzhong discussed and used the surplus to cover the handling fees, leaving everyone well-pleased.

"Your Majesty's teaching is correct; this subject obeys the decree," said Shi Chongren. After offering a few more admonitions, Emperor Shi Fangzhen instructed him to go into the palace to pay his respects to Noble Consort Liu so mother and son could converse.

Fang Tianmu said, "Time here flows simultaneously with the Lizhi Realm and the Penglai Realm." For he perceived that the traces of energy left behind by his party in the apricot forest dated back nearly two days prior, which was precisely the time frame when they departed the mortal world.

After bidding farewell to Wang Bing and the border garrison troops, Lu Zhen did not assume office immediately; instead, he first rented a two-courtyard residence in the capital to settle in.

Time passed steadily, and after a while, Chen Lin sat up from the sofa, looked at his hands, and a smile curved the corners of his mouth.

An ordinary person might simply feel excited about the benefits they had gained, but clear-headed individuals like Zeng Guang and Yue Liqiu were struck with astonishment at Lu Zhen's ability to pull all of this off.

"You are... Teacher Liu?" Chen Lin stared for several moments before recognizing her as Liu Yuhan, his academic counselor from university.

Spoken simultaneously by dozens to a hundred people, the shouting pierced directly through the tightly shut doors of the Ministry of Punishments, reaching the ears of the officials inside. It caused their expressions to tighten, and when they saw Lu Zhen walking into the hall, their faces grew even darker.

Yun Shu sat quietly in the second-floor private box, her expression calm as she watched the dozen or so dancers on the dazzling circular stage in the hall, who possessed "graceful figures and exquisite beauty," energetically stretching their alluring and charming bodies.
