It was still early. Chu Lingtian paid a visit to the largest shopping plaza in Jiangnan. He needed to purchase additional ingredients for crafting the detoxification elixir. The reason he did not have Huang Yanchen prepare everything was that the Mysterious Ice Vermilion Fruit served as the primary ingredient; other herbs must not overwhelm it, or the medicinal efficacy of the fruit would be diminished. Therefore, even for the most common and inexpensive bitter chrysanthemum, he had to select those that were not too mature, ensuring they were at the appropriate growth stage, which required his personal oversight. The composition, proportions, heat control, and age of such ingredients—once altered, the resulting concoction would be entirely different. Had Huang Yanchen prepared them herself, she surely would have just bought the most expensive ones available. After arriving at the shopping mall, Chu... Meanwhile, the gazes of many powerful experts fell upon Lu You’s face. The moment they discerned his appearance, the expressions of several experts turned somewhat peculiar. Peak Master Mu Bing deliberated for a long while before disclosing the full extent of the strength of Mu Bing Peak. The archives were located in a three-story building; given Meng Qi’s current clearance, he could only enter the first floor, while he lacked the qualifications to access the second and third floors. It was easy to imagine that, before long, Zhou Li would become a trending topic on the Huacheng University forum. "And you lot, have you considered the Great Patriarch’s feelings? Do you know how much pain he is suffering right now? Impulsiveness? Is impulsiveness of any use? Just like what Long Tao did a moment ago?" Qishi turned to look at the other members of the Dragon Tribe. Seeing his business partner’s lecherous nature, Xiao Guonan smirked with satisfaction; for businessmen, understanding one’s partner is akin to being halfway to a successful deal. "It is in the evidence room at our police station. At the time, I thought it might be the only piece of evidence, so I had someone bring it to the station," the fat officer explained.

Mu Bao, who had suffered external injuries, was feeling much better by now. Sitting on the edge of the bed, smelling of medicine, A-Bao sniffled and looked at his second brother, Mu Hu, with tear-stained eyes. Mu Hu was outside the house, kneeling solemnly toward the south. Meng Qi searched for another excuse, signaling to Liu Yufei as he spoke, hoping for her cooperation, but Liu Yufei turned a blind eye, preoccupied with grooming her hair. Upon hearing this, Lanlan felt a pang in her heart. What a cruel choice! To walk among the mortal world like a normal person, yet force someone else to depart from it. The Ghost Emperor nodded and sighed softly, his expression weary; this matter had finally come to an end. "Things have reached this point; naturally, we must think of the best solution. What is the use of your anger?" Wen Yu said, unable to stop herself from frowning. Yun Zheng was usually very good-tempered, except when it came to television dramas he was involved in, at which point he became exceptionally irritable. His sudden shift to a serious demeanor frightened Officer Han so much that she widened her eyes and quickly covered her mouth with her hands. Large crowds of fans rushed in from all over, and even fans from other clubs arrived as well. Logically speaking, Yun Zheng’s supreme luck should have guaranteed success in everything, but Yun Yan happened to be his fated romantic tribulation—a reality that even supreme luck could not prevent. To be honest, Gao Ruijin still could not quite accept this reality; when she saw Gao Minhao arrive earlier, she had once believed their crisis was resolved. "Oh? What has happened to the old hero? Why is he so furious?" Xiao He asked, feigning ignorance. Yet, even as Xiang Yue’e felt uneasy in her heart, time marched on without hesitation to that day two weeks later. Watching Li Yue remain silent, a faint smile always playing on his lips, he felt his own confidence grow. In truth, Li Xiao had only inherited a portion of the legacy, with his primary inheritance being related to cultivation techniques. Although Feng Feili was equally puzzled, he knew it was highly suspicious that the other party called him Long Guang, and he could not fathom what was going on with the young woman before him. Calming his heart, he had no choice but to wait and see how things developed. The Wu Immortal Art consists of five major realms: Void, Divine Clarity, Yuan-Condensation, Chaos, and Great Completion. Ling Xuan had experienced Void and Divine Clarity but could never grasp the meaning of Yuan-Condensation. At this moment, he finally understood: Yuan-Condensation meant that once the sea of consciousness was sufficiently strong, one would form a Nascent Soul within the mind.

He stamped his personal seal on the paper and, following the terms discussed with Qiao Mingjin before the competition, placed the order. Those who swapped the items, no matter how skilled their imitation, could not withstand the test of familial affection; as long as they had lived together for a long time, the relatives would naturally discover the issues with those impostors. Here, there was a scene of harmony and joy, and the kiln factory on the other side was much the same; at noon, the Zhu family had prepared a meal. It fit perfectly once worn; Hua Li was about the same height as Lu Yunxiang, and although it was just a plain cloth garment, Hua Li felt something unique wearing it, as if she had returned to the days of several years ago. No matter how I looked at it, I felt there was something wrong with the matter, so I asked Uncle Youfu for half a white wax candle and, taking Heizi with me, headed toward the back mountain. As he spoke, Blood-Stains-Half-the-Sky reached out to shake Ye Fei’s hand, and Ye Fei, indifferent, shook it casually. The old matriarch looked extremely exhausted, her spirit clearly failing. It was only when she heard that Prince Zhao had left that a faint smile appeared in her eyes. It was evident that Zhao Xingfeng’s proposal to the Lin family had also caused her great distress. Blood-Stains-Half-the-Sky let out a shout, and immediately a bodyguard in a black suit rushed in from outside to shield him, staring at Ye Fei with vigilance. Consequently, on the road from Taiyuan to Kangcheng, Guo Mo and his party constantly saw caravans and travelers heading east or west. The Red Lotus Knightmon laughed, saying nothing more. He had not yet reached his maximum speed. If he wished, he could easily double his current pace. Because this involved money, one had to worry about exorbitant demands after a breakup. There was also the concern that a messy breakup might affect the company. Considering he had one year left in his term and the various repercussions this matter might trigger, Elder Zhu tactfully declined.
