Chapter 42

“Of course, these are extraordinary times. But have you noticed anything different about those people?” Zhan Hen held Tang Ruyan’s waist, honestly feeling quite shocked himself.

At last, Shen Haoxuan reacted—not by retreating, but with a faint smile curling at the corner of his lips. Suddenly, a terrifying roar, like the cry of dragons and phoenixes, burst forth from his mouth.

Sima Sen watched helplessly as she reluctantly finished the ‘medicine,’ then quickly drank some water.

After all, they did not know the depths of Taoism in Huaxia or the stance Huaxia Taoists would take on this matter.

The single word “Prince” instantly bridged the gap between them. The mere few feet that separated them in the endless falling snow felt like the ends of the earth. He didn’t dare reach out, fearing even the slightest movement might stir a breeze that would carry her away like a drifting snowflake. Instead, his hand traced her form behind her back, capturing every detail without missing a fraction.

The bait had been cast, but the man in the red robe was in no hurry to haul in the net. Hearing Ye Jian’s words, he offered no substantial response, leisurely watching him, waiting for his choice.

Zhan Hen shook his head. It was unlikely they would switch people. Although she had grown up, Tang Ruyan’s face still faintly bore the appearance from that time.

After sending the same message three times, Ziyun returned to the pavilion to drink. He didn’t believe those old fiends would stay put. For there were people like him, whose abilities had surpassed the realm of the Golden Immortal. Hence, sending such messages would inevitably draw someone to test the waters.

Potato chips were originally very fragile; when dropped on the ground, they usually shattered into pieces, making them difficult to pick up.

Finally, the military police, under Mandela’s command, chased after one of them, while the Black Rabbit angrily pursued another direction.

A gentle autumn breeze blew; it was deep autumn. It had been over a month since Binglian ran away, and Zhao Fuxin’s wedding was just three days away.

The bronze demon coffin, accompanied by Mandela’s low chant, had already been submerged in the river of blood, never to be seen again.

However, it now seemed that the storm at sea was the real culprit behind this passage. There was no secret tunnel between the two sea areas. Only because of the storm had this passage, capable of sweeping people along, come into being.

Guan Chenji saw Gu Meng enter the kitchen and hurried in to help. Song Yuchen was left standing in the cold.

Why was she so attached to that bracelet, which was made of the same material as his own, differing only in design?

Such a smile—Gu Meng had never seen it on Feng Island. Yet here, on Guan Chenji’s face, she saw this completely unguarded expression.

The light was about to break through. The sperm whale had not yet fully closed its jaws. In a moment, Bai Xue would break free. He admired himself greatly: such a perfect plan, such flawless execution—all would end perfectly.

Pei Yueyue held the card and suddenly fell silent, as if recalling the scene of sending Chenxing off early that morning. She thought she had risen early enough and wanted to help Chenxing pack, but upon arriving, she found Chenxing already dragging a suitcase out of the hotel.

Senior Brother Qing harbored a burning resentment deep within. For some reason, the fat man’s recent actions filled him with immense anger.

At this stage, the basic thought process of the initial phase was clear: harnessing the super-energy radiation obtained from the third-dimensional space to reach a critical threshold, thereby igniting the primordial universe.

His face, usually cold and stern, now brightened with a smile as he slowly stepped out from a corner. In his hand was a delicately carved sandalwood box.

At first, Fang Changsheng didn’t understand Fang Chen’s plan. But after hearing about the Sword Grass and the Source of Life, he realized why Fang Chen was so confident.

A simple sentence—initially of little significance to him—became a tremendous insult in the ears of the middle-aged man and several members of the Wang family.

Originally, the power of the Golden Core, which had been suppressed in the dantian, instantly shattered amid this fluctuation.

My goodness! Luo Hao and those scattered fleeing figures were terrified out of their wits, their legs going weak.

“If they knew that this batch of blood diamonds was merely nailed to the ceiling, I wonder if some would truly go mad,” Fang Chen smiled quietly.

It seemed that Yin Miaotong revealing her information to Prince Chiyang was merely a ploy to use him to capture her. Thus, her promise to protect the North Pole Palace was nothing more than an unfulfillable lie.

Beside him, Li Hengxuan from Jingzhao, who had accompanied King Chu, saw the bloody conflict at the Yanwang Mansion. Realizing the gravity of the situation, he hurriedly dispatched officers to the palace to inform the emperor.

Zhou Tong’s hair stood on end. He tried to nock an arrow but was too slow. He only saw the feathered arrow pierce straight through the horse’s eye. The horse let out a mournful whinny and reared up. Zhou Tong could no longer hold on and fell off.

The marquis walked to a large tree and placed Qizhi beneath it, then moved aside. The marquis and Li Yunhui quietly observed the situation around Qizhi.

“There is much hatred between us that cannot be explained quickly. Once we leave here, I will tell you everything. For now, let’s wait and see if we can survive. We’ll talk about what happens next later!” Zhang Xing had just spoken when the marquis appeared beside them, followed by the corpse demon.

If they couldn’t contain it, even he might fall into this ‘great swamp’ and be unable to escape.
