Chapter 54: It Is Better Not to Go at an Unauspicious Hour

"Madam, this old servant is Mother Ding from the North Courtyard. I manage all matters within the North Courtyard in good order, and the maidservants below all take my orders."

Song Tang did not speak immediately; her gaze lingered on Mother Ding for a moment.

Mother Ding suddenly felt a chill run down her spine and grew somewhat flustered.

Just moments ago, when Madam Shen walked out with a darkened face, she had given her a specific look.

She had come here just now with a mission in mind.

"Mother Ding, just—"

Zhusha's entire body instantly generated metal-type defense in response to her intent. Derived from Duan Leng's ten-star metal destiny, it was indeed overbearing, and within a split second, black-and-gold textures covered her entire body.

"Sigh..." Ouyang Yi let out a soft sigh. How could he possibly not love such a lovely and delicate beauty?

If he were to absorb spiritual energy and cultivate along the way like this, his cultivation would probably increase even further before he entered that altar realm. Although he was already at the Master Cultivator stage, it was still difficult for him to match those disciples at the Grand Master Cultivator stage.

"Have you been out tonight?" the chief inquisitor asked expressionlessly. From his expression alone, Li Zhishi knew that the other party probably suspected nothing of him at all. Acting this way was likely just a formality. He figured that Chen Dong and the guards definitely had not recognized him, and they had only come to interrogate him because of that last remark he had made.

"Trouble? Avoiding me?" Taishi Kun was somewhat puzzled. After hurriedly bidding farewell to Sun Dewang, he turned and headed straight to Ma Zhi's room.

The vendor at this stall was an ugly man dressed in black, with a face covered in pustules. However, his ugliness did not deter customers from gathering around the stall to pick and choose items.

While digging the pit, Li Zhishi had deliberately found an opportunity to say those words to him. The fatty considered himself a veteran who had experienced three or four mission worlds, but he hadn't expected that this fellow, who called himself Wood, would use just a few words to completely shatter his confidence as a senior.

When Yunque heard this, she felt resentful and cursed the old dowager inwardly countless times for being an "old wretch." Yet she was utterly helpless, forced to watch as Wu Song took the silver and left.

All fifteen priests reacted, one after another reaching out to tear the black cloth from their faces, then sitting up to look blankly at the unfamiliar room they were in, their faces filled with bewilderment.

However, Wu Song had miscalculated after all. When he reached Fangzhou, he discovered that the enemy had long since seen through his trick. What did this mean? Because Fangzhou was already an empty city. Unreconciled, Wu Song redirected his forces to Weizhou city, located twenty-five li west of Zhenzhou city, only to find that it too was completely deserted.

"I'm really surprised that you took the initiative to come find me." Anna's body was also recovering quite well, though the doctor's advice was still for her to get plenty of rest. Besides, she had already begun processing her departure abroad.

Zhou Yiyang's haughty and rude demeanor had already fallen into the lower tier. Possessing a noble status does not mean acting arrogant and rude equates to nobility. That can only be called sheer blindness to others.

"Family members wait outside!" The nurse dropped that brief remark, and Mo Chenhai was shut outside.

Tian Tian, however, felt that the engine was only one factor. There was another point: Old Chen's special regard for her. No matter what, she was inclined to trust that old man with a story.

Since the old dowager was the Empress Dowager's younger sister, she did not wait with them, having already gone ahead into the inner chambers to pay her respects and greet her.

Yet at this moment, Kelly appeared before the X Legion's camp in her sports car. With a screech of tires, she braked sharply and leaped directly out of the vehicle.

Qin Tian closed in on the formation of guards holding massive magic-light rifles, acting quite like the descent of the Grim God. He appeared unpredictably beside different guards, viciously driving the iron claws in his hands into their throats.

"You should have learned from me long ago. Look at that greeter just now. Her smile was so flirtatious. When she saw Lord Monkey here, she was practically drooling." Lord Monkey chuckled with a snicker.
