Nineteen thousand and nineteen

“Master Tang, is this true? I feel like I’m dreaming,” Yue Banri Can said, still unable to believe it.

“What’s wrong, Xue Nuan?” Wei Cheng, standing beside her, noticed her unease and looked at her with concern.

The art of alchemy among humans had long since declined. Could this young man truly concoct a pill capable of curing Qian Ye?” a powerful member of the Qian family voiced his doubt.

Ridiculous—who could guarantee that such a treasure would remain effective long after it was taken?

His crown prince robe fluttered without wind, the four-clawed golden dragon embroidered on his chest breaking free, growing larger with the breeze until it stretched a hundred feet long, its golden scales glinting fiercely as it bared its teeth and claws, majestic and divine.

Yet in the next moment, his eyes widened in horror as he saw Qingge release spiritual energy, sweeping over Dragon Phoenix Mountain like a storm.

However, subordinates Tang Luoluo and Xu Qingchuan said little in such a moment.

Ye Huan spoke slowly, a terrifying thunderstorm gathering in his hands. The roaring white light contained an indescribable force, sending a shock through everyone’s hearts.

Objectively speaking, what Gu Qianmo said was indeed a fact.

Yan Jie knew well what Yang Qiqi was thinking but dared not say it aloud. Unable to find perfect words of comfort, he silently stayed by her side.

After several rounds of wine and tastes of many dishes, Zhou Chu and Yang Cheng’s faces were flushed red. By then, the two were slinging arms around each other’s shoulders like brothers.

So if Tie Jue was willing to take over the task, she would be very happy; of course, she still needed to find a way to save herself and rescue Tie Ying—she couldn’t allow Tie Jue to truly seize the throne.

“I know!” Leng Wuchen seemed unwilling to hear her explanation, but in truth, he knew well that Lin Hanxi had the ability to win people’s hearts.

Li Daniu took the booklet and glanced over it. It was simply marked: Produced by the National Security Bureau of China.

Thus, she could only obediently let the Empress hold her, suppressing the fire burning within; yet her eyes flickered repeatedly, pondering how to make the Empress realize that Afeng hadn’t given her what she desired.

Guangbao was already struggling to suppress it, but the calamity thunder symbolized the might of heaven. Such heavenly power was everywhere, far beyond his ability to control.

“So beautiful, so sexy! Look at that deep cleavage—at least a D cup,” the boys in the class immediately stopped laughing, their mouths watering with admiration.

The cold-blooded struggles within the palace never entangled Afeng; the quiet life of more than a decade truly protected her, allowing Afeng to grow normally—becoming Afeng, not Tianfu or any other princess.

Lin Yue swallowed hard, intending to quickly find Zhou Chu to plead and admit fault, when the phone rang again.

At that moment, Tang Lanhui’s warmth and sunshine sharply contrasted with Mu Zhihan’s coldness and indifference. Since Pei Junhao refused to accept her rent, she bought groceries herself and warmly invited him to dine together, personally cooking the meal.

Yulinglong watched Mu Xifeng’s departing figure without stopping him. After all, all she could do was inform him of everything—beyond that, there was nothing she could assist with, as she was only a first-tier realm king with the power of one realm.

No one knew what the elder was thinking. Below the cliff and beside it were rock piles forming artificial hills—stones scattered everywhere.

But he was a sword cultivator, his combat power always formidable. Fearing the delay would be detrimental, Lin Qingwan also appeared.

Others could not see the soul spirits, but Su Rui could. Seeing them shocked him—The Demon King casually grasped large swathes of soul spirits and scattered them like seeds toward the unconscious team members.

They paid no mind to questions, each boarding their vehicles to bid farewell. Their hearts were eager to return, camping once on the way, finally arriving at Su’s village on the evening of the fifth day.

Having just met Huang Xin that day and still unfamiliar with each other, I had little hope. Yet unexpectedly, Huang Xin agreed without hesitation.

She sat on the boat, clad in dark clothes, holding her mother’s ashes. Watching as the city slowly blurred in her view, until finally it merged with the horizon over the sea.

After a while, feeling less dizzy but still cautious, she didn’t rush to open her eyes. She slowly moved her numb fingers first, then opened her eyes just a slit to confirm her surroundings before fully waking.

“Senior Zhou, this matter is indeed the fault of the Mo family; I beg your forgiveness!” Mo Wudao could only grit his teeth and swallow his pride, for Senior Zhou Ban Shen was a figure from the same era as the Mo family’s ancestor.

The two remained fully alert, following only the red fruit. Apart from the fruit ahead, no trace of spiritual energy was sensed. Passing this trial cave meant survival, failing meant death. Only insiders of the Youshan clan knew the inner situation and shared no information.

When they burst into Cai Di’s dorm, the fellow was still asleep in bed. Even after being told Lin Huan intended to jump, he looked half-asleep and unresponsive.

Looking over the entire Blood Clan, powerful princes could be counted on one hand, and each was an ancient being living hundreds or thousands of years. Stephen was considered a genius in the clan, reaching marquis level in just three centuries, but becoming a prince might be impossible in his lifetime.

Voices in the main hall quieted considerably. Many editors, assistants, and models—those flashy types—no longer lingered, subtly watching from a distance.

The situation grew increasingly strange, leaving Han Guang more confused. He was utterly clueless about what these things were up to.

Although Lou Suyun guessed it was Xu Shaoyan, confirming it made her heart skip a beat.

Sun Min felt discouraged, glanced at Li Wei, then bowed respectfully to me before lowering her head and leaving.
