Chapter 148: A-Ping Takes Action! Targeted Client Acquisition

He Yulan took the nutrient solution handed to him without reservation; after all, Su Ye had provided all the supplies along the way, and if he had stood on ceremony, he would have starved to death long ago.

Wei Limo sat on the imperial palanquin, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth as he offered what he considered to be a charming smile. He expected her to greet him with a welcoming face, but instead, she turned and walked away, leaving him with nothing but the cold back of her head.

Kagawa Yu froze in his chair on the spot. Kagawa Yuki watched with amusement as Aragaki Yui blushed furiously, then turned her gaze to the bewildered Kagawa Yu.

Gao Zheng-yang was a man of contradictions. Just when you thought he was a buffoon, he would prove to be formidable. Just when you thought he was formidable, he would act like a fool. He lived his life with such whimsy that it seemed no person or event ever truly weighed on his mind.

He had risen to become a favored court official, surviving two changes in reign without ever losing his prestige. If one were to describe his nature, it was less about cunning and more about his willingness to sacrifice—to sacrifice anything to hold onto that immense, heavenly wealth. Even the suspicious and sinister Fusang trusted him implicitly on many occasions.

Qin Hong asked, "These require skilled craftsmen to build; the Goguryeo artisans likely wouldn't know how." How could A-wan be so knowledgeable about siege engines? Qin Hong dared say that not a single general present fully understood them.

Ji Yingru bent down to pull one of them apart. "Alright, stop fighting." She asked in surprise, "Whose children are these?" No sooner had she spoken than a maidservant came sprinting over, offering apologies as she scooped up her child.

Another explosion rocked the ship. As the smoke from the vessel grew thicker, He Yulan’s heart began to hammer against his ribs, his eyes locked onto the source of the blasts. He could no longer spare a thought for He Jianrong; his only concern now was the safety of Su Ye and Cheng Xi.

The door to the earthen hut was largely blocked by stone, but Shi Qingqing, desperate, threw her entire weight against it, forcefully shoving the piled rocks aside.

Long Xiao said, "Alright, everyone, enough bickering. Since we are all here together, let’s discuss the matter at hand."

Since she first had memories, Ji Anchen had moved house three times, yet each place was less than two streets away from the others.

"Hello, my wives. You’ve all arrived so early. Why didn't you wait for your husband?" Wang Yunlong walked up to Gao Lingling, pulled both her and Lin Siying into his arms, kissed them each, and chuckled.

The way she addressed him as "Senior Brother Sect Leader" nearly made Yue Mingfeng stumble; he could hardly believe his ears. He turned abruptly, but Weng Qingyi’s face remained as calm as ever, devoid of any fluctuation.

Aside from Zi Long, who glanced at Ling Xiao from time to time, not even Zi Qianye had expected Ling Xiao to earn so many killing points.

"I forgot to introduce myself; I am Naguri. Please treat me well," the man said quickly, attempting to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Long Fei gave an embarrassed smile. "How could that be? I haven't done anything dishonorable, so why would I fear being reported? It’s just that I love Xiao Ying; my heart has no room for anyone else." As he spoke, his expression turned unexpectedly solemn.

Once the cloth ears were removed, black horns were revealed. They were pure black, sturdy, and slightly curved, not particularly long, but they suited Qing Ju’s head well. They stripped away his original coldness and replaced it with a ghostly allure; he truly looked like a demon now.

"You audacious, rebellious disciple! The Emperor valued you above all others, yet you have plotted against him and now lead a siege on the city. Speak! What is your scheme?" the white-haired man shouted sternly.

He was a demon; surely, he had been sent to the human world by the Demon Spirit. Now that the Demon Spirit had been defeated and had vanished from the Demon Realm, he could technically be considered masterless. But to hear a demon claim in the human world that he had nowhere to go—only a fool would believe such a pathetic lie, especially considering his connection to Lin Shao.

A celestial beauty, the peerless Chang'e, recited an incantation and unleashed a bright moon, filling the air with boundless murderous intent.

Suddenly, he was jolted awake by a sound like a booming bell, only to find himself surrounded by darkness.

The twelve experts in the Nirvana Realm were still able to resist Ye Zhengfeng’s aura. Sensing his immense power, they all surged into the sky at once, Bei Shixiong among them.

Gu Tianxue’s beautiful brows furrowed slightly; she felt a sense of revulsion. It wasn't that she begrudged the wealthy for coming to receive porridge—in fact, she understood that some came solely for the sake of seeing her.

But at this moment, Xuanyuan Gu was scratching his head, his face twisted in bitterness. He held a black chess piece in his right hand, hovering in the air for a long time. Finally, gritting his teeth as if having made up his mind, he prepared to place the piece on the board.

Before filming began, Matthew Vaughn called Cheng Shiyuan over to give him careful instructions on what he needed to attend to.

"Hmph! The people of the Dragon Child Legion are truly insane! Over a dozen ancient clans have already perished under their demonic claws! Fortunately, our secret realm is well-hidden, so it hasn't been discovered yet," an old man said, his expression filled with rage.

The people living on this Star Moon were simply too wicked; that was the only adjective that could come to the mind of the innocent monk.

"We must reclaim Rome immediately!" Servius lowered his voice, his fists clenched so tightly they began to bleed.

She didn't remain idle either; while the others were stunned, she lunged forward and clawed at Cheng Lou’s face.

This was somewhat plausible. This was the Immortal Realm; it was not impossible for other immortals to enter the vicinity of the Heavenly Pool. But why would an immortal attack her for no reason? It made no sense.

The voices were neither high nor low, just clear enough for everyone inside and outside the room to hear. Yueya and Fenrui’s pretty faces turned shades of red and white, while Dankui and Qingzhi, standing right there, didn't even try to hide their laughter.
