Chapter 62: A Bad Bargain

Mu Shuan had not expected Song Tang to visit today. When a palace maid reported that Song Tang was waiting at the entrance of the hall, she panicked immensely.

Looking at her heavily swollen eyes in the mirror, Mu Shuan hurriedly instructed someone to apply makeup to conceal them.

Song Tang waited outside the hall for a long time, finally—

Back when she was together with Cheng Yiben, she never really enjoyed attending such gatherings, and unless it was absolutely mandatory, she would never show up.

If previously she had held a certain degree of disdain toward Lin Xiangnan while simultaneously being irresistibly drawn to him, then tonight, she was truly filled with curiosity about him.

"Stop fretting over such matters. Your imperial father is still alive; launch the decisive battle swiftly," Pang Tong urged. In his eyes, this Cao Zhi was somewhat overly sentimental and melancholy.

Jin Bei, Ba Gu, and Bai Luo all widened their eyes and let out a deep sigh, looking at Xue Yue with uncertain and disbelieving gazes, before shifting their focus back to the already seated Pang Tong. It seemed only this man could explain the situation.

Taking advantage of the momentary diversion when Jiang Chen had just stepped down and everyone's attention was elsewhere, Su Dong drew a throwing dart from his sleeve and flung it toward the crowd.

In Qiu Zimo's eyes, the conversation between Chen Yin and Jiang Chen was clearly flirtatious, fueling even greater anger in his heart.

The sound came to an abrupt halt because, while descending the stairs, she unexpectedly ran into Han Xiao who was heading up. Looking backward, she saw a long line of attendants following closely behind him, all carrying gifts.

Pang Tong said coldly, "An enlightened ruler governs the state, and the myriad people thrive. To see Jingzhou with a plentiful population and abundant goods is a great blessing for the people. My lord, why bother to conceal it?" He had accurately targeted Liu Biao's inner desire to become emperor.

The surrounding atmosphere grew increasingly bizarre, and even somewhat oppressive, due to the silent "gaze" exchanged between Li Junze and He Yining.

Having finished these tasks, she turned to leave, but unexpectedly, the person who should have been lying obediently on the sofa suddenly reached out and grabbed her.

"Captain Xiao, was this the only person causing trouble just now?" Jiang Dong ignored Xue You and turned to ask Xiao Guoguang.

Towns possesses a well-rounded skill set and diverse scoring methods. Yet, facing Gobert, who had restricted Embiid to a mere 15 points, Towns's offense was far from easy.

"I'll go with you." Having finally reunited, Hua Liansuo simply could not endure the agony of another separation.

They were not beasts; even beasts knew fear, let alone beings endowed with intelligence.

That originally wildly turbulent Evil Eye Tyrant was merely accumulating power within his body. If he were able to completely unleash this torrent of power, it would achieve a terrifying effect. However, Yun State simply did not give them the opportunity to attack.

On the deck, the bear-like man was locked in a brawl with Leon, both of them risking everything for that suitcase.

As he spoke, Bai Yue felt the scene suddenly shift, and upon regaining his awareness, he found himself already inside another room.

"The Demon Potion that will allow me to take a step further—I have finally found it! Hahahaha!!" A ferocious smile appeared on Poison Scorpion's face, his frantic laughter growing louder and louder. As his wild laughter echoed endlessly, a tear also slipped from the corner of his eye.

After a few minutes, Xu Yang took the jade out of the persimmon juice and wiped it clean, holding full hope that the jade would transform. He was instantly dumbfounded. What the hell is going on this time? Are you playing a trick on me with a sudden jade transformation?

"Teacher, my side is almost done too! Just waiting for the enchanting~!" Wang Zhuohao pointed at an arm-type exoskeleton armor on the table and said.

Jiang Chuan looked at the men in black, whose resolve had loosened somewhat due to her words. Cruelty welled up in the depths of his eyes, yet he was forced to compromise: "Let us see the person first!" He did not doubt the truth of those words at all.
