Volume One, Chapter 46: She Was Destined to Become the Princess Consort of the Prince of Zhenbei!

As soon as Xiao Chuyu uttered these words, everyone present assumed that the Prince of Chu was displeased because the Princess of Chu had been injured at the spring hunting grounds due to the Prince of Northern Suppression, prompting the usually mild-tempered prince to openly mock him.

Even without all this, the strength of the Howling Moon Valley was by no means inferior. Striking at this moment might only succeed in slaying Lang Hongxiang and his companions, but once the Howling Moon Valley learned of this, how could they simply let the matter rest?

Although the physical body of Lord Holy Dragon had fallen, the origin crystal and soul remained intact, and it was believed that a day of rebirth would come in the future. Unfortunately, it was feared that those of them belonging to the remnant tribes would no longer have the fortune to witness it.

However, what he found strange was that while the gold liquid within the cauldron boiled incessantly, he did not feel the slightest trace of heat. Although the protective Profound Dragon Aura barrier completely blocked the gold liquid from his body, he should still have retained some perception of the ambient temperature; yet at this moment, he could feel nothing at all.

Moreover, the most formidable aspect of the Dragon-Searching Hand was its ability to reduce a dragon-clan opponent's resistance to the absolute minimum, ultimately leaving them vulnerable to its powerful tearing force. Once the opponent broke free from the control zone of the Dragon-Searching Hand, its power would instantly be lost.

Tang Lulu had even less intention of freeloading a meal. After offering her greetings, she linked arms with her mother and departed alongside her parents.

Qiu Lian's face flushed bright red. Her hand remained suspended mid-air—neither knowing whether to raise it further nor how to retract it—leaving her in an exceedingly awkward predicament.

On the morning of the second day, a sliver of pale red sunlight had just broken through the clouds. While the other team members were washing up and preparing for morning exercises, Wang Feng had already donned a neat service uniform and arrived at the doorstep of Battalion Commander Xue Hao's quarters.

They had never figured out what the ship ahead was actually doing, yet the vessel in front seemed oblivious to the presence of their own ship. The two vessels simply sailed on in the same direction.

Song Xi's mother was overcome with emotion, and then, with a soft thud, she actually dropped to her knees before Ye Bai, making as if to kowtow.

Although Super Saiyan 5 Bardock's combat power had broken through the twelfth dimension to reach 150 billion, he had channeled all of his energy into resisting the temporal quake, leaving no surplus energy to protect himself. Had his physical resilience not reached its absolute peak, he would have been blown to smithereens on the spot.

Despite the fact that Senior Brother Yuanxiu had always been completely obedient to her and never once went against her wishes, deep down in her heart, she still felt uneasy. Judging by his atrocious behavior toward others, she had no confidence in whether this could last.

It was precisely because of this that Long Qi's movements had slowed down, ultimately allowing him to successfully strike with a single blow.

"Do you remember what I said on the first day? You will get used to it—used to the embraces between us. You've managed it." Dongfang Ziqing pressed her face against Ye Feng's shoulder, shedding a single tear.

Nearly thirty thousand troops and militiamen controlled the three mountain peaks, bringing the Xi and Tatar forces to a complete standstill. Their only remaining option now was to bypass these three peaks and directly attack the rear of Dalian City.

"That option is indeed much safer, but we only have two days, and we still need to find the Blue Force command post. If we go down from here, it will undoubtedly consume a vast amount of time on our journey," Wu Qingcheng shook her head and said.

"This subject dares not pollute Your Majesty's eyes, and begs to take leave immediately." Yang Jiaojian knelt and kowtowed, retreating backward a few paces on his knees before rising and departing.

"Very well! We shall see the outcome one month from starting today." With those words, Nie Hun stood up, evidently somewhat displeased by Nie Qingyun's "interference."

"I grew up in a place called Zhao Family Village. From the time I can first remember, I've never seen my parents. An old grandfather picked me up in the mountains while he was gathering herbs. The old grandfather said that when he found me, I was only this big." Mao San gestured in the dark, though he had no way of knowing whether Xia Yuhe could see clearly.
