Chapter 153: Sharing a Room! A Test of Character
"Mr. Li, out so early? Where were you headed?"
Ah Ping took the initiative to speak to Li Junsheng. Since she had agreed to scheme against him, she couldn't afford to be too distant.
Li Junsheng laughed, radiating energy. "I went out for a run to exercise. It’s good for the health. Are you settling in well at my place?"
However, now was not the time to dwell on that. Lin Zhan looked at the boy who had spoken earlier, Xing Chao, a student in the class who had decent grades.
Xia Fantian was helpless; this was a decision made by the "top leader," Shang Yunfeng. She couldn't assist either and could only offer some comfort to "Cheap-Man Chun."
The night passed without incident. By the next day, the four of them had not forgotten that this was the day they had agreed to meet Ke Qi, so they went together to the West Gate of Jingtian City to pick him up. Chen Feifan had already spoken to Xiao Mufeng about this the previous night.
"Do I?" Xu Xiuxiu was naturally aware of her own situation, but she feigned ignorance with a blank expression.
Empress Dowager Su said she would merge the Eastern Palace into the Central Palace. Did that mean Yan Shu was to move into a room within her own quarters? She was rather curious.
"One vote for 'Prospering the Nation and Securing the People'!" Chairman Lin added a vertical stroke after the phrase, beginning to tally the votes in the traditional "Zheng" character style.
Contacting Jianye was hardly an easy task, and Old Madam Luo simply didn't take Manjing's words to heart.
After a morning of commotion, Murong Chong was carried back to Tianjiao's room. Yan Chuheng also carried Yan Shu back to Consort Sang's chambers. The imperial physicians of Wanchun Palace were ordered to treat them separately, yet they all hesitated, afraid to prescribe any medicine.
Facing five opponents at once, Du Mengyue remained full of confidence. She kept shifting her footwork, and no matter how the five of them attacked, she parried them with ease.
Usually, he would challenge the trap corridor at least three times a night, but he didn't intend to continue tonight. He had something else to do, something that was, to him, of even greater importance than "Absolute Rationality."
Zhong Qing didn't mind at all. She considered herself quite the poet, though that was entirely her own assessment.
"Plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum—each has its own unique charm." After struggling for a long moment, Qiu Shaoze finally managed to say something that offended neither side.
As the system notification faded, Ghost Night Nether was the first to rush out, entering stealth mode within a split second.
The middle-aged man felt the pure lightning-attribute power transmitted through his arm and could not help but show a trace of surprise. Even he had not expected that there would be such attribute power within the boy's body. Judging by his Dragon Combat Power, it didn't seem to be the lightning attribute. Could he be a dual-attribute user!?
However, he was, after all, a "glass cannon" assassin. He hadn't allocated points to his constitution, so his health was not particularly high, and he hadn't finished replacing his new equipment yet.
This caused both Li Ningyu and Zhao Duoduo to blush, bringing the farewell ceremony to an end. However, the moment before Li Ningyu boarded the plane, Zhao Duoduo shouted to him, "Ningyu, remember to come visit me when you have time!"
But looking at Lin Qingyu's attitude now, it seemed that the matter would not be resolved by a few simple words.
These slaves had all been ordinary people before. Even with the transformation of the world, because of the demons, they had never seen much of the outside world. Although the demons had restricted them, they had also protected them, leaving them like flowers in a greenhouse.
The movements of "Flowers Blooming on the Path" were not subtle and were immediately noticed by the War-Crazy players. "Understanding the Clothes" was furious and issued orders to the subordinates around him.
The call was from Simmons, the general manager of Lemur Company. His grandfather had done him a great service.
The cavalry that followed had good intentions, but they had overlooked the fact that there might still be Chang'an cavalry outside the city.
Before Li Yan struck, he had already sensed his senior brother's aura. In that final moment, it wasn't that he hadn't considered such a possibility, but he hadn't dared to entertain the thought, forced to deceive himself into believing that his senior brother must have been intercepted by the Celestials who had laid an ambush long ago.
