This female educated youth must be seriously out of her mind!

What a bunch of kind children!

Xu Qinghuan watched them head down the mountain before turning to walk deeper into the woods.

In just that short moment, she had already gathered several kinds of herbs. The feeling of getting something for free was truly wonderful!

This was an unprecedented experience for her.

In her past life, wild Chinese herbal medicines were exceedingly rare, and even if they existed, they were exorbitantly expensive.

Virtually all of them were artificially cultivated.

There remained a vast difference in medicinal efficacy between cultivated and wild herbs.

How could—

Tang Xiao could not help but shake his head. Daring to duel someone in such a state? Was she acting spoiled, or was she betting that the other person wouldn't dare kill her? In his previous life, Tang Xiao would have already killed her hundreds of times over.

The first to fall was the outer turret in the top lane. Facing a mid-to-late game Kassadin, very few people wanted to bother dealing with him, and the defense tower could only fall under Yu Tingsen's hands.

Wei Chen's voice was not loud, yet it echoed clearly throughout the entire auction house. Everyone's eyes widened slightly at that moment, staring in disbelief toward Wei Chen's direction.

Another mouthful of blood spewed forth, and the burly youth could ultimately no longer sustain himself. Finally, amidst those somewhat startled gazes, he crashed into the ground, blood mixing with the dust and mud, making him look exceptionally wretched.

Meanwhile, the Emei players who had joined earlier looked smug as they popularized the glorious deeds of Soaring Sword Across the Nine Heavens to the fresh newcomers.

Similarly, the Japanese 40th Division at Jinjing also grew formidable. Combined with the 9th Independent Mixed Brigade led by Ikegami Kenkichi, which had escorted supplies all the way, they managed to stubbornly withstand the combined assaults of the 20th, 37th, and 58th Armies.

After all, Liu Hao was Big Brother Qingfeng's sworn brother. Even knowing full well that Liu Hao was spouting nonsense, he would never question it.

"More than half a month has passed. Have you figured it out?" Hazel pulled her hand over with pity, gently rubbing the calluses on her fingers.

Everyone in the know exchanged a knowing, lewd expression, tacitly understanding one another without needing to speak.

Deng Xiufen scolded her for being foolish, but she merely smiled, the thoughts deeply buried in her heart driving her to continue her actions.

A hazy white mist swirled around him, obscuring his features like an immortal in the fog—mysterious and alluring.

Mentioning these four words, Sang Ling instinctively straightened her spine, feeling a sense of pride and glory.

The original owner's previous resources had been mediocre, and the number of times she went on location shoots could be counted on one hand. Naturally, she could never have been here before. Seeing how familiar Wen Yanli was with the place, Ling Xi let him lead the way with peace of mind.

Yet the situation had already occurred; he neither expected it nor could prevent it, only hoping that these Heavenly Sword Sect disciples would not actually flee.

Seeing that she meant business, Shen Yuan could only silently pray in her heart, hoping her brother would rush over to save her soon.

The soldier even turned toward the two of them, speaking in clear, standard diction, "Our City Lord has instructed that all distinguished guests must be treated with the utmost courtesy."

The literal meaning was very simple. Placed in his own era, perhaps a middle school student could have answered it. But here in Dayin—where information was closed off, thought was constrained, and knowledge and experience were still in their infancy—understanding it was no simple task.

"Big brother is overthinking. I simply haven't slept well these past few days." Shen Yuan yawned, brushing it off casually.

"Handsome man..." Hua Xuanji crept a bit closer, intentionally pulling down the fabric on her shoulder just a fraction.

Walking out of the Buddha hall, Xiao Ye could not help sighing inwardly. He had originally thought the Qing Dynasty palace dramas he watched in his past life were already dramatic enough, but he never expected the Dayin imperial family to be even more absurd than those trashy shows.

To think that this murderer and plunderer was actually none other than the "Exploding-Exploding-Exploding-Exploding-Extreme" who constantly engaged in murder and pillaging! He truly had no idea how that guiding emissary chick could have picked such a fellow. How could someone like this even be qualified to participate in the trials for her family's ancestral treasure?

Zhang Yue recounted everything he had witnessed outside the Tan residence the previous night to the father and son, and only after finishing did he speak once more.
