Chapter 121: The Millennium Frescoes
As the man in the ornate robes drifted away, Cheng Xiaoshan and his junior fellow apprentice, Jiang Yingxue, were both filled with speculation. Although they did not know his true background, the hidden barbs in Young Master Chu’s words and the gravity etched upon Manager Lu’s brow were enough to convince them that he was a person of immense status—most likely someone from the imperial court with eyes and ears everywhere. Cheng Xiaoshan muttered to himself, "To think that someone from the court has arrived here; it seems that..."
Seeing Li Zhang so agreeable, Han Qi’s face lit up with joy. Just as he was about to ask a question, his gaze accidentally swept across the river, and he suddenly leapt up, his face pale with terror.
A sneer of profound contempt erupted from Huo Peiyi’s nose. Gradually, I began to learn how to adapt to these taunts, transforming them into the strength that drove me forward.
It seemed she had truly provoked Su Qingqing just now; she needed to think of a way to make her happy again.
A sharp rap landed on Feng Zhi’s head. "Ouch..." he muttered, rubbing his scalp in pain.
Because they had sent people ahead to make arrangements, there was no such romantic cliché as there being only one room left.
The drama for the night had concluded, and everyone needed time to digest the aftermath; no one was in the mood to celebrate a birthday or the new year.
Reflecting on this, Dugu Qiubai began to consider those masters who had broken through their martial limits and departed. Had they, too, felt the shackles of the world’s heavenly laws tightening around them, and chosen to escape?
Who would have thought that after Shi Wei handled it this way, Qi Yun would seem to have matured? She felt deeply gratified, convinced that Shi Wei was the guardian angel of their family.
His temper was foul, and his volatility, including his threats, gave him a unique, masculine charisma—rugged and unbridled.
"What bank account? Which bank?" Li Huanfei snatched his glasses from the table, put them on, frowned, and sat up straight.
"Very well," Yue'er replied, following the steward while observing the environment within.
"Notify everyone to leave the Outer Ancient Alliance immediately and terminate all plans targeting the Titans." The captain looked at the other man deeply; he knew his subordinate was hiding something, but the terror in his eyes could not be feigned.
Even if Cobalion destroyed the Light Stone, their fate when facing the furious Kyurem was self-evident.
Slow, it was truly slow. So slow that it took a full half-minute to pierce his body, and blood began to trickle slowly from the wound. Wild Dog managed to hold back for the first ten seconds, but after that, chilling screams erupted from his throat.
At the same time, Liu Qi used his metal perception to scan the direction in which the strategist had departed; the man had not gone far, but was watching from a distance.
Both sides were desperate to find the other’s main force for a decisive battle. With mutual intent, a massive conflict erupted less than ten miles from Jinzhou City.
Under Kabu’s notification, the dragonfly-shaped aircraft stopped at the entrance of the auditorium. The monk slowly boarded the airship, waving to Kabu and several soldiers who were saluting him from their posts in the distance.
Mosheluo had long been jumpy and suspicious, his heart trembling, but upon seeing who it was, he let out a long sigh of relief.
However, even with the two of them joining forces, their speed and strength were far too weak to compare with Feng Jiu. As she threw a punch, she struck one of the Flying Immortal cultivators squarely.
It was precisely because they were in the presence of the Grand Chancellor that the palace servants were cautious, which is why they were so polite! If Wan Tianxiong had not been there, a lowly concubine like Huang Xiang would never have received such courteous treatment.
Hearing this, Zhao Fusheng laughed. He remembered that in his past life, Tan Kaixuan had told him the same thing, and he had truly lived up to those words.
Jade Fox said solemnly, "My memories have awakened, and I know that the Celestial Fox clan is considered the ultimate vessel for cultivation. Those powerful factions are surely seeking me out for this very reason. Although dual cultivation is not uncommon in the Eternal Realm, I have no desire to become a sacrifice."
