Chapter 65: Let's Bring A-Ye Home

This proposal caused many officials in the imperial court to look visibly brightened. Even Emperor Chongzheng seemed quite moved by it. Having confiscated millions of taels of silver from the Ning and Rong Mansions, he knew that the immense wealth of the two great households was far beyond that of ordinary nobility. Therefore, the idea of having the Ning Mansion fund the imperial court to help overcome this crisis held a strong appeal for him.

"That's right. If you open the sprite's stats now, you actually won't be able to see its potential. We need to go to the main city for that," Ye Yi said.

In the Sacred Firmament Palace beyond the heavens within the Saint King Realm of Hongjun, Tathagata, who was asking Hongjun a question, suddenly shivered inexplicably.

This startled Gaea, throwing him completely off balance. Seeing a large lump of shadow suddenly appear at his feet, he hurriedly raised his blade and turned around, only calming down when time-stoppage triggered. His abilities had not been activated for so long that he had almost forgotten them.

The Chaos Heart of every universe can only be seen and obtained by those destined for it. Fifty Steps was destined for Atlantis, but Yang Jiong was not. Thus, the Chaos Heart returned to the universe, awaiting the next destined person.

She frowned on the screen and said coldly, "I don't know where such strange confidence of yours comes from."

Zhao Guanyang was truly worthy of being a top-tier mecha pilot. Although his reaction time was much slower, he eventually regained consciousness and frantically pulled back the control sticks with both hands.

"Storage slot? Could it be a title bundle?" Qin Feng knew that only title bundles would appear in the storage slot, so he immediately chose to 'open' the bundle that was flashing with white light.

The three major wealthy families, headed by the Liu family, failed in their expedition against the Mingyuan Star and consequently shifted the blame to the starry sky pirates, claiming that their performance during the attack was unfavorable. At the same time, they intended to use this to reverse some of their negative influence within the Interstellar Federation.

Fray wanted to break free with a painful look in his eyes, but it was already too late. A flash of golden lightning appeared behind him, and that mechanical monster from the sky had descended.

However, when they finally reached the center of the desert, where Wang Biao was undergoing his heavenly tribulation, they were stunned. A man who was completely pitch-black, with his hair burned off and his armor long since shattered—virtually identical to being stark naked—was pointing at the sky and cursing furiously.

Yet she waited for a long time without seeing Li Haonan's palm come down. Opening her eyes, she saw him leisurely walking over to the large bed, casting off his bathrobe, and lying down comfortably and naked as if this were his own territory, falling asleep.

"You... are qualified!" Yue Jia spat out those words with resentment in her eyes. She believed that Xu Zhe's victory over her was purely a coincidence and sheer luck.

Li Haonan had a brilliant business mind. His very first CS live-action gaming arena became a sensation across the entire southern city upon opening, leading him to open many more such chain arenas in numerous other cities.

"What is this?" Yang Erlong instinctively took the class-transfer potion from Lu Feiyang's hand.

The atmosphere grew somewhat ambiguous. Sun Luo stopped speaking, lowering her head to fiddle with a tissue. After a brief moment of contemplation, Lin Feng suddenly leaned in close and whispered something in Sun Luo's ear.

When Li Haonan arrived at the hotel entrance with Gu Xiaobei and the child, Chen Shuang and Shao Jihua were already standing at the entrance to welcome guests. Today, Chen Shuang was exceptionally beautiful, wearing exquisite makeup and a diamond-inlaid tiara on her head that sparkled dazzlingly with the slightest movement.

"Yes, wise and mighty Boss! You are that great sun, illuminating the direction of our advance!" Both of these guys loved playing tricks, trying their best to disgust Lin Feng.

In this situation, Xu Zhe had no choice but to use three battle blades to fend off the moth-like onslaught of the mutated beings.

There was no other reason; the only thing that could make the Vamdemon react so violently was something related to the eighth chosen child.

Due to successive years of severe drought, Yuan Shu lacked grain after declaring himself emperor, so he sent men to the Chen State to request food supplies. Rejected by Liu Liu and Luo Jun, Yuan Shu was furious. He then sent Zhang Kai—who had previously defected to him after failing to assassinate Cao Cao's father, Cao Song—as an assassin, who pretended to be passing through the Chen State on personal business, seized the opportunity to murder Luo Jun and Liu Liu, and occupied the Chen State.

Yan Ning knew that her father had accepted her proposal. With a nod, she pulled Yan Lie along, and each returned to rest.

Accompanied by this came boundless golden light and countless falling golden flowers. The golden light swirled and burst, revealing the figure of an ancient and profound Buddhist master in the center. Unmatched Buddhist might rolled across the land like a tidal wave, illuminating the boundless universe and displaying infinite power.

"That's good, which means you have a sense of proportion. Do you know what a person who knows proportion should be doing right now?" Cai Jing said indifferently.

"Just now! Poliwrath, jump down and use Body Slam!" With Bounce, Belly Drum, and Body Slam combined, Poliwrath's pitiful remaining stamina would definitely not be enough to withstand it. Never spare a venomous snake lest it bite you back; facing a Pokémon like Kingler with off-the-charts physical attack power, Sancheng did not want to make such a rookie mistake.

Now the situation in Guanzhong was changing rapidly. Dong Zhuo was likely to die within half a month, with his entire clan wiped out, while Cai Yan would be left orphaned and helpless. He had to do something. Therefore, even if Dong Zhuo did not relieve him of his post as the Administrator of Hedong, he intended to linger in Guanzhong for some time to make certain plans.

Though called artificial intelligence, all its thinking and operations were based on digital logic and fuzzy computation; even so-called independent work and operation required human definition and direction.

Celestial Venerables were supreme beings of the Ancient Emperor class, except that back then, the terms "Great Emperor" and "Ancient Emperor" did not exist; they were revered as "Heaven" or "Dao," and later generations called them Celestial Venerables or Dao Venerables.

Haotian smiled faintly, his eyes sweeping intentionally or unintentionally across the grand hall, making Ao Guang break out in a cold sweat.
