Chapter 44: The Cannon Fodder Fiancée (44)

Xie Yanci did not send Yun Jin back to the Yun family residence, but instead brought her back to the villa where they had stayed together yesterday.

In his own words, a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's person.

The indulgence of the previous night had given Xie Yanci a taste of sweetness.

Naturally, he was unwilling to let Yun Jin go so easily.

After a night of intense passion, when morning came, the space beside Yun Jin's pillow was empty once again.

After finishing her morning wash, Yun Jin received a WeChat message from Xie Yanci on her phone.

It read:

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Supreme Lord Laozi finally arrived at the Qingwei Palace. I was bedridden and did not get to see him, but I heard later from my aunt that the Heavenly Lord, who had always remained so calm, had fingers trembling uncontrollably when he took the elixir of life extension from the Supreme Lord that day.

Seeing that Ma Chao had adopted his suggestion, Pang De held him in even higher regard, yet he soon looked at Ma Chao with a trace of doubt. Logically speaking, since Pang De was serving as the vanguard, there must be a formidable warrior in the army to act as the rear guard to ensure the main army's rear would not be overrun and attacked.

Why must the heavens be so cruel, stripping away the most important things in her life one by one and making her endure pain over and over again?

A moment later, the boss finished casting its ultimate skill. The tranquility of the sky was restored, but the ground was left in utter devastation, riddled with massive craters smashed by the giant blade.

Yan Liang also noticed an enemy general charging toward him. Relying on his exceptional martial prowess, he disdainfully turned his head to look for a weapon on the ground, completely disregarding Gao Shun's attack.

"I am going to stay at a friend's place tomorrow. It is really inconvenient for me to live here!" Su Xi said in a lowered voice, a fathomless expression on her face.

Li Yunqi's muffled voice came from Xiao Changfeng's chest, giving vent to his dissatisfaction without restraint.

Even after guessing who the poisoner was, before she could confess with her own lips, he still tried to convince himself that perhaps it was his enemies who had planted someone to poison him, or perhaps this matter truly had nothing to do with her.

Liang Chu felt extremely out of place upon entering the embroidered uniform guard's yamen. Moreover, there was too vast an age gap between him and Zhang Zhijie, leaving them with practically no common language. After exchanging a few casual remarks, he felt thoroughly uncomfortable all over.

Suddenly, a beam of light flashed through the gap between the two horses. This light was not unfamiliar to Pad, as he had witnessed firsthand yesterday the magnificent feat of Old Wang slaying two Silver-tier enemies with a single sword.

Having shattered the first stream of black light spewed by the Shadow Dragon, Old Wang returned to Landon's side. Hearing Landon's words, he immediately sprang back into action.

While the fierce battle raged intensely outside, the inside of the carriage remained dead calm. Li Dongling and Linglong sat drinking wine together, paying no heed to the outside skirmish whatsoever.

The exquisite wings flapped gently as the Wind Spirit Master stepped into the high air. With a light wave of his right arm, the deep yellow crystal flower burst apart instantly.

"Xiaoyang, how on earth did your King of Ten Thousand Nights pull that off?" Yan Sage asked in astonishment as Xiaoyang walked back.

Hearing this, Xiao Yang's breathing paused slightly. Within the Netherglow Empire, there were a total of ten Spirit Soul powerhouses, and this Fang Yan was one of them.

Zhang He had also sought out numerous restorative tonics for Lady Zhang to take, but those medicines, both in color and taste, fell vastly short of the one before their eyes.

"These talismans probably weren't inscribed all at once; they should carry two layers of meaning. My Daoist arts back then were somewhat different from those of humans in later generations. I will need some time," Nuwa said slowly.

The commander of the Spanish fleet, Francis Drake, had yet to arrange for the aftermath of his flagship when he saw the entire fleet of twenty-five seven-hundred-eighty-ton Hua Xia warships sailing past not far from his flagship.

Above the Five Elements Palaces, five types of Five Elements spiritual Qi continuously converged and poured downward, making the Five Elements Palaces look as though they were situated in an ocean of spiritual energy.
