Chapter 155 Unrecognizable
A younger sister?
Consort Dowager Zhang felt a sudden surge of amusement. I am your elder, yet you call me your younger sister.
Yet, this single phrase from Qin Xiao managed to slightly lessen the aversion in her heart.
"Since when did Xiao-er learn to be so glib?"
"I am already this old, how could I possibly be your..."
Pan Fu smiled eerily. "Then spare his life, and kill all the rest." Their original plan was to keep Lin Yun alive and use his words to let Mo Zixun learn the "truth" of the matter.
Seeing this, Sima Fan actually wore a look of disgust and took a few steps back. Lin Yun instantly felt a surge of anger, ripped open the front of his robe, and said crossly, "Surely you must have seen this thing before?" On his chest was a fiery-red array tattoo, which occasionally emitted a faint red glow as his magical power circulated.
A sudden gust of air caused the plane to jolt violently up and down, throwing the two of them heavily to the ground.
Huzi shouted joyfully, "Alright, alright! You're from her family now, and you'll be from my family later. We're all a family anyway, and my Yanzi isn't afraid of having too many mothers-in-law." As he spoke, he winked playfully at Shuzhen and Juan.
"We at least need to know if it's true or false. Take us to see it first," Li Sisi said upon seeing this.
As for herself, she went to the pharmacy, prepared ten doses of medicine for Hongying, handed them over to her, and instructed her on various dietary and lifestyle taboos.
Mahu nodded like a pounding pestle, readily agreeing. For a moment, it felt as ethereal and comfortable as being in a dream.
To think that when discussing matters between two nations, one should always have core pillars of the state present for consultation; yet today, the Emperor had summoned only Feng Qize, without even calling the Crown Prince.
If there was a good show to watch, it was hardly limited to just these two men. Chen Ruohong and Xuan Ming also staged a wonderful drama of their own.
The patch of woods where several of them stood was closely adjacent to the woods housing Sima Fan's underground cavern. In fact, passing through these two wooded areas led straight to the city gates of Yanchixiang.
"Attack them!" the captain of the guard shouted angrily. But the flames that suddenly appeared in the mage's hands startled these ordinary guards, causing them to hesitate and hold their ground.
"Dammit! Situ Li, you motherfucker only know how to stab people in the back. What kind of a hero do you think you are?" He tossed the chair aside and roared loudly.
"Enough with the formalities, everyone go inside first!" Tang Ling nodded at Luo Yan and walked in ahead.
The Fallen Knight gazed quietly at Xiao Fen without speaking, then abruptly drew the long sword from his waist. The mage was startled and hurriedly raised the Dark Arcane Rules to prepare a spell. However, the knight did not attack; instead, he held the sword horizontally across his chest and bowed in a strange, ancient salute.
"Very well, lead the way for us. Is there any new situation on Hongquan's side right now?" Liansheng asked.
With that, the old man asked him to demonstrate it immediately. Sure enough, he did not disappoint the old man. Supplemented by some technical guidance from the elder, he had roughly mastered this set of leg techniques. He only needed more practice, contemplation, and application in actual combat hereafter, and he believed that in the near future, he would be able to better carry forward and promote this martial art.
Liansheng tightly furrowed his brows, unable to figure out what had happened to him. In just a single day, his demeanor had completely changed. Yet that very night, Liansheng and Fo Budou still accompanied Hong Huan to the abandoned stage in the imperial garden, sitting down and quietly waiting for Lan Meng to manifest.
Legend has it that the eyes are the windows to the soul, serving as the direct channel connecting the soul to the outside world. Leaf Feng's Crimson Fire Pupils should be able to generate a power that affects the soul, thereby interfering with the consciousness within the soul and its control over the energy in the body.
Continent? Xiao Fen was stunned for a moment before reacting. He shook his head noncommittally and said, "Rather than dwelling on this, everyone, we should consider how to handle our current predicament." The mage was still agonizing over the previous problem; he had hoped to make an easy escape, but now that seemed nothing more than an extravagant hope.
