Volume 1, Chapter 57: Actually Kidnapped to the Xuanlin Pagoda?

That indifferent expression of hers toward him—Wei Guoxiao dreaded seeing such a look on Su Zhizhi's face the most. He always felt that, dignified prince though he was, he appeared so utterly insignificant in front of this woman.

Fuwei understood why Jeffs had suddenly grown so melancholic; if he were in Jeffs's shoes, he would feel melancholic too. He could only pat Jeffs apologetically on the shoulder.

One could easily imagine that if not for the "Circle" deployed by Lin Xiu, they would likely have been melted down directly without leaving a single trace.

In merely a split second, all the members of the Ancestral Dragon clan re-gathered around their patriarch and abandoned the encirclement and annihilation of the Demon Lord and the human coalition forces.

"An evolved beast; there is a terrifying evolved beast down below," Qin Li said in a deep voice at that moment.

"In other words, you are actually just an abandoned pawn of the Demonic Cult, aren't you?" Chu Yunduan's tone carried a hint of mockery.

Whether viewed from the perspective of personal emotions or the demands of future development, capturing the base of the rampant and ferocious pirate crew was an absolute necessity.

The wave of fire raged wildly, blasting several members of the Three-Tailed tribe into ashes. The already sparse one-star Three-Tailed people suffered further casualties.

Li Shen now saw it clearly. Although Emperor Taizong had not given explicit approval, he had tacitly permitted the matter; otherwise, they would never have dared to act thus.

"Yo! Long time no see." Li Zehua greeted familiarly, draping his arm over Feng Baobao's shoulder as if they were dearest friends.

"Then you tell me, where has the Saint of Tang gone? He has been imprisoned here for more than twenty years, unable to use even a shred of his cultivation; how could he possibly escape? Furthermore, I didn't even know a thing about this until now!" Yuchi Wang's tone had calmed somewhat, yet it remained brimful of anger.

Gao Zhan was unwilling to admit that this was the only place with a signal, leaving Ning Qian with no choice but to leave on her own. Shen Chenren happened to walk out at that moment, and seeing her holding a bouquet of fresh flowers, he suddenly recalled their wedding day—though everything had been so simple, he still remembered the way she looked holding those flowers.

"Take this with you! Whenever you miss us, just look at this painting!" Zihan tore off the painting, folded it, and handed it to Huang Yi.

The "Black Tortoise Aspect" was a stance specializing in attacking an opponent's lower body. Its moves were vicious and ruthless, with no equal. An adversary fighting against it, should their foundational legwork be even slightly unsteady, would easily find themselves exploited by this stance.

"Your Highness, please place the young master here!" Lan Shuang motioned to Long Yuling, who laid the unconscious Zihan onto the bed before fainting himself.

Zhang Aotian and Wanyao Feng had conspired to frame Bi Shuihan, and the Emperor's Radiance and Thousand Gleams was hidden by him in an underground secret room.

Feng Qingye did not bicker over his obnoxious attitude, having grown accustomed to it all along the way anyway. Besides, his attitude toward Hua Lingyu was hardly any better. Now that he was living under someone else's roof, he would endure what he must; everything else could wait until the poison was cured.

A figure rushed out—it was none the less than Jalen, who had been ambushed a couple of days prior by the Luo brothers and stripped of his storage ring and superior magic stones.

Wu Siyuan's sudden roar caught Duan Ke somewhat off guard. Initially, she thought Wu Siyuan was merely furious that his research had gone to waste, but upon hearing later that he was actually thinking about saving funds for the country, Duan Ke felt a wave of shame followed naturally by a surge of deep respect for Wu Siyuan.

Upon hearing Gao Zhan's words, Ning Qian knew he had not fully grasped her meaning, though admittedly she had not explained it clearly herself.

Jin Yi sighed endlessly with emotion, overflowing with happiness. It is difficult enough in life to find a single confidant, let alone a romantic soulmate. What virtue or ability did he possess to be blessed with four such tender and beautiful wives, each more considerate than the last? This made his impending ascension even harder to let go of.

"Lord Aegger, what do you mean by this? You are actually siding with an outsider?" Lawson said with unconcealed dissatisfaction.
