“This is bad!” Su Fu thought uneasily. The group had come here in secret and had not wanted to cause any trouble, but they had broken that rule after all.

All the soldiers stopped what they were doing. The soldier hurriedly knelt and began clawing at the earth with both hands. At last, as the layers of soil parted, a human skeleton was revealed. On the index finger of its left hand gleamed an exquisite gold ring.

Li Feng nodded. During the National Day holiday, the tour guides here were paid quite well. None of them took time off, and Li Feng could do nothing about it.

What palm technique in the world could be more grand, imposing, and prestigious than the Dragon-Subduing Palm? As a successor of the Dragon-Subduing Palm, Wanyan Zongwang was thoroughly familiar with the palm techniques of every school and sect under heaven. Yet he could not discern what technique Yelu Dashi was using.

They were only a few newspapers. If you wanted to read them, then go ahead. It would be a good way to broaden the paper’s influence. As for whether it made money or not, that hardly mattered.

It was midnight. It would be unwise to clash with Bai Sheng at such an hour, since there was no certainty of killing him or even defeating him.

At that moment, beneath the dim glow of the night, she saw her own shadow twisting inexplicably. A sudden thought stirred in her heart.

“What the hell?” Tiger Leopard nearly cursed aloud. He had just claimed he was too busy with work and ended the call, yet the moment he went downstairs, he had run off to call Li Feng.

“All of you, get out of here. Do not tell anyone what happened tonight. Anyone who is found out will be executed immediately!” Vermilion Sand ordered her subordinates. “And prepare a large room for me at once.”

Then she clenched her teeth. Without the slightest hesitation, she took a blue gemstone shaped like an eyeball from her bosom, bit open her index finger, and let a drop of thick black blood essence fall onto it.

Gong Puyi also smiled radiantly at Shu Qingci. Shu Qingci paused, then smiled even more brightly. Before Ye Hanyue could react, the two of them had already walked together toward the carriage.

When Liang Anyue heard her words, she felt somewhat stifled. So the children here did not even have a simple dining table.

Li Xiangnan was a very honest man, with the refined air of a university student about him. When he met Tang Yuxi, he was especially bashful. It was only after Lin Shiya told Tang Yuxi that he had recently been following her television dramas that she realized he was actually her fan.

Whatever the true state of this family’s affections—whether they were united in appearance but estranged at heart—they had lived together for so long that some feelings had inevitably formed.

“Don’t worry. I’m fine. I’ve taken my medicine.” Seeing how concerned his son was for him, Old Master Jing felt an indescribable warmth in his heart. In the past, his son had rarely shown him much concern. Perhaps because of work, Jing Chaoyang had gradually become more sensible.

There were many people in the porridge shop, with only one or two empty tables. The walls were covered with posters and illustrated explanations about the health benefits of drinking porridge, along with descriptions of the characteristics and effects of the shop’s various specialty porridges. A price list hung on the wall to the right of the entrance.

Suddenly, a bolt of heavenly tribulation struck one of the men in black. In an instant, both man and clothes were burned to a crisp, and he turned into a wisp of blue smoke that drifted away.

After saying this, he hired Jian Si without the slightest hesitation, although he had no idea what use this special skill might be to their agency.

Thus Rong Li watched as Mingshu seemed to confirm something, nodded to herself, and then turned around and left the very next second.

Tang Yuxi lowered her head to conceal the disgust in her eyes. She had not expected that, after Wang Peng finished speaking, he would focus his attention directly on her.

Qingqiu picked up the yellow talisman from the table and sprayed a mouthful of strong liquor over it. He then set the talisman alight and tossed it into another bowl. Lifting the bowl of liquor, he pried open Shen Wanqing’s mouth and poured it down her throat, ashes and all.

She stared at him, dumbfounded. Had Li Huai known about it long ago? Or had Yu Meiren already discussed the matter of taking a concubine with Li Huai? Fearing that she might refuse after the wedding, had Yu Meiren added this extra measure?

That night, she disguised herself and hid inside the palace. When the palace gates opened wide the next day, she slipped out amid the confusion. She traveled eastward, and it was already four months later when she reached Tianxiang.

One was noble and aloof, the other gentle and radiant like a flower. With identical faces, the two women walking down the street naturally became the center of attention.

“Regardless of whether she is pitiable, I cannot let her do anything that might bring disgrace upon Xiang Wei.” Kang Fanni spoke with utter determination etched between her brows.

Chen Luo raised his brows slightly. According to the rumors circulating within the marquis’s residence, his cheap father could shatter a stone stele a hundred paces away with a single palm strike from the air. His strength had clearly surpassed the Bone Tempering Realm by far.

The Duke of Du Cao could not see, but his hearing was extraordinary. When he heard the chess pieces flying back, he leaped and rolled, evading every one of them through a series of linked movements.

Ding Ning felt a little embarrassed. He scratched the back of his head repeatedly with his other hand, giving a foolish little chuckle.

After seeing Yun Manduo off, Jiang Yunyao finally breathed a sigh of relief. At last, a glimmer of hope had appeared in her heart. If only Prince Jingqin had gathered some of this Tendon-Reforming Grass after climbing Zhongnan Mountain; that would save her a great deal of trouble.

“Hey, hey, hey! Move aside, move aside, do you hear me, you old bastard?” Several guards brandished leather whips as they drove away the townspeople blocking the road.

Seeing how these people had upgraded the way they addressed the handsome man, one could imagine how nervous they were over that small sum of money. Yet some people merely shook their heads, whether out of contempt for them or because they disagreed with what the handsome man had just said.

She quietly turned around. Her eyes burned as though they were red-hot irons, searing a deep hole in her heart.
