Chapter 30: Better to Untie a Knot than to Tighten It

"This is the main reason why I didn't want you to meet Grandfather!" After listening to Lin Yu's words, Xu Qingcheng sighed softly as she spoke.

Lin Yu was shocked by Xu Qingcheng's statement. He looked at her curiously, wondering if she had already foreseen that meeting Old Master Xu would lead to such consequences.

He was intrigued...

"I thought your name was Holy King, but—haha—I never imagined your real name was..." Lu Xia couldn't contain her laughter. Yan Shao, confused, glanced oddly at Lu Xia, then frowned at the Holy King, dragging Lu Xia out of the hotel.

At this moment, Dongfang Qingyue lay battered and blood-soaked on the ground, barely clinging to life. With one last limp turn of her neck, she went to meet the King of Hell—there was no way she could be alright.

Upon opening his eyes, the whole world became strange and wondrous. Previously, Mo Song saw only mountains rising to the sky, but now, he could see countless doors scattered across the mountain slopes, startlingly out of place, yet invigorating to the spirit.

White Wolf's words were meant to drive down the price. Since the envoy wanted to exchange labor for grain, he naturally had to undervalue the quality of their laborers.

“Lan’er, aren’t you planning to visit your sister?” After a month together, Li Lan called Liu De ‘brother,’ and Liu De affectionately called her ‘Lan’er.’ The depth of their relationship was beyond outsiders’ knowledge.

She looked at the young man, then at the supernatural beings around her, all huddled behind her and watching him warily. As the young man drew closer and closer, the supernatural creatures suddenly scattered and fled in all directions.

For a scout, concealment is paramount. These Qi spies, already exposed to the Jiangning Army's surveillance, would find it impossible to escape the cavalry’s light crossbows.

At the very least, it could be announced to the world that the Great Zhou dynasty had not fallen. Zhou had ruled the land for centuries, and the people’s loyalty still lay with them. Establishing a new ruler in Luan City could attract devoted Zhou officials to join, expanding their strength and perhaps even giving hope to rebuild the dynasty.

The vendors in front of the Teleportation Palace were merely of Imperial or Royal rank, utterly incapable of resisting.

Among the three brothers, it was impossible to avoid friction. For example, Chen Second and Chen Third always felt their father favored the eldest—why else would the eldest’s business flourish above all?

Yuan Feng listened to Master Dong but said nothing. Their generation cherished nothing more than a house full of descendants.

The bodyguards escorted the aunt to her bedroom, where they discovered pinhole cameras and some illegal medicines.

Recently, rumors had spread that Mr. Chen was frequently visiting the Lu family's villa, and everyone understood the implications.

To uncover the truth, Lin Yu immediately crouched down and roused the lewd man lying on the ground.

The next moment, Liu Yi, who had appeared ‘dead,’ suddenly sat up straight, a stream of black blood seeping from his mouth.

Yet he did not know that while his soul was returning to his body and he closed his eyes to advance, Han Qianyun suddenly opened her eyes.

It was rare to hear the young master speak of someone in the Wuhua Sect who was especially kind to beasts—so he persistently dragged True Lord Chisong over.

“If only I had found Yu Qing earlier, would things have turned out differently?” Li Zheng thought, tears of regret flowing once more.

Yang Huan was suddenly taken aback. Although it was his first time seeing the bronze token, he knew it was the symbol of the Mechanism Sect. Those who possessed it were master-level figures.

“Understood. Go back and tell the Meng Song people—all actions await my signal,” said Yang Huan.
