Chapter 93: Holy Light City
Gran acted as though nothing had happened, belching beer as he called Rock over and handed him the golden harp resting at his side. He had bought it at a ridiculously low price from a half-elf merchant, but it had sat unwanted for a long time, and now was a convenient time to be rid of it.
Though the white tiger made no move, the dreadful aura of the king of beasts had already descended over everyone, as if that fearsome giant tiger might launch an incomparably savage assault at any moment.
In the eyes of most people in the northern lands, being merged with the central lands meant surrender. What Lin Wei had to do was make everyone understand that this was union, not enslavement. Such a thing could only be done by him personally, because only his prestige could win the northern leaders over to the idea.
After struggling to gather the formula and the materials, only to learn that they still had to seek some imaginary thing called the Prime God Space, and no one even knew where it was, the feeling was simply maddening beyond words.
After he left, those words still echoed in Lu Xiaohang’s ears, sinking little by little into his heart. In his mind, images of Lin Rong and Xu Zhexin surfaced. A longing with no end? An impossible happiness? What did that mean? What on earth was Xu Zhexin talking about?
With such a powerful fighter on their side, this kind of monster, though strong, was still no match for the team.
The instant those soft, fragrant lips touched Lu Xiaohang’s, he felt as if his entire body had been immobilized by acupoints. The sensation was wonderfully strange, as though a seal long waited for had at last been lifted.
Interlacing and crisscrossing, and once the power of that immortal-severing sword radiance was exhausted, there appeared within the tribulation clouds a vast maze of truly astonishing complexity.
That man could not tell whether he was a monster or a new human. After killing the sniper, he walked toward the factory district, and only then did the call from the field agents behind him ring out.
Although Ye Feng did not know there was an interception ahead, he did know there were pursuers behind. Thus their speed was not slow, and with horses available for changing mounts, stamina was no problem for the animals either. So Ye Feng’s urgent task was to keep moving, rather than paying much attention to the planes that had just flown overhead.
“I need to make a call. If you mind, you can leave first, or perhaps change to another room.” Bertram felt he had already gained quite a lot, a simple and unexpected windfall.
“That is the most sincere thing I have heard today.” Jiang Haoran tapped her waist, and Chrorong laughed with a childish voice, her body shaking.
Thinking of the culprit who had abducted her, Gu Qingwan could not help frowning and thought bitterly, Damn it, since you like climbing trees so much, why not stay up there for a lifetime? Then she added darkly that he had better never fall into her hands, or she would tie him to a tree and make him stay there until the end of time, long enough to make up for everything in one go.
She had only just remembered, so she hurried out to call for Green Shu and Green Yi. As soon as she stepped outside, she ran into Green Luo just returning.
The lights dimmed completely. The entire arena erupted with shouts of the Spurs’ name. Today, to the rare delight of the crowd, passing tickets were sold, making it the best-attended home game of the season for the Spurs. Even the VIP viewing rooms were fully snatched up.
She did not hasten to answer the shop assistant’s question. Instead, she examined the jewelry once more with great care, picked out a few pieces from among them, and only then began discussing the price. After a lengthy war of words, Gu Qingwan finally secured the jewelry she had set her sights on at the price she had in mind.
A man of gentle bearing, dressed in a white robe edged with silver, wore silver peonies of noble yet understated elegance that stood out vividly against the snowy silk. His long black hair was loose upon his shoulders, lending him a touch of classical grace.
That single note of music was like the first birdcall of spring, the first breeze of winter, and its power to move the heart was beyond words.
Fan Jiuniang and Fan Wuniang exchanged glances, waiting for Fan Banniang’s bosom friend to make a public fool of herself.
Xia Jiaoyu had already decided how she would apologize to Emperor Wushuang after he was brought over. After all, with his cultivation, he could in no way escape her cousin’s move.
Compared with last time, this time there were only the two of them, so the energy required was much less.
Boom! Another explosion rang out, and from the enemy army opposite came countless screams. The nearly ten thousand soldiers before Chu Haoran instantly turned to dust.
“Please, sir, lend me your strength. It seems this mission is even more arduous than I imagined.” Fu Tianchou bowed to Mo Yi and said.
“Then I’ll be leaving too. I’m relieved now that Haoran has awakened. Besides, there are still matters on the Red Guest Alliance side. Haoran, Director Liu, Sister Yaru, I’m leaving now. Goodbye.” Xue Yuqiong nodded to them and left as well.
After all, no matter how it was said, Si Muyuan was still a member of the Si family. And the people of the Si family had always protected their own; naturally they would not sit by and watch Si Muyuan suffer bullying and grievance.
And these hidden medicinal effects, when combined with other herbs, could produce remarkable results.
Si Tuyaru was not at all worried that her lie would be seen through by Si Tuo, but she could not guarantee that Li Peixia would not notice. Especially with her mother staring at her so unblinkingly, she felt as though she had been seen through completely, and every inch of her skin was ill at ease.
