Volume 1, Chapter 50: Li Xueqian rolled her eyes in exasperation

Hosley’s dark, long eyes fixed on the person in his arms, showing not the slightest intention of letting go.

Jiang Qin, being held upright, worried about falling and had no choice but to place her hand on his shoulder for support.

Huang Mazi chuckled, “Brother, you’re from out of town, right? In Pingyang County, no one dares to interfere with my affairs.”

“My family’s shattered and my people are gone—why care about... why care about injuries?” Xiong Muyan shook his head mournfully, his words drawn out as if in great pain. His earlier bold spirit had instantly vanished like smoke, as if he had aged ten years overnight. His face, pale and sullen from excessive blood loss, betrayed the tears glimmering in the corners of his eyes.

Because the Tongxuan teleportation array had been activated, almost every talented warrior from Jialan had left to explore the wider world, leaving only the older generation, those without hope of further breakthroughs, to stay behind. They guarded their homeland while nurturing newcomers.

Wu Cunrong chuckled and waved to the four, “I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first. If you have time, you’re welcome to visit the Wu family.”

“How many came from Changhen Palace this time? Who led them? What cultivation level?” Having made up his mind, Jiang Han no longer hesitated and asked his final question.

This was Ruono, a close friend of Jos, who had taken over the ancient sacred tower from his mentor after ascending to the fourth level.

Exclamations erupted one after another. At this moment, all experts knew that Chen Xiao was finished. Once his identity as a successor of the Buddhist sect was revealed, the Divine Realm would never spare him.

What puzzled Jiang Han was that after traveling continuously for a full day and night, not a single spirit herb or medicinal plant appeared. Not even a single beast of the wild crossed their path.

Dragon scales possess anti-magic properties, so it is impossible to locate the reverse scales through divine perception. Otherwise, when the black dragon’s divine sense swept over, everything would be clear and there would be no need for such trouble.

The liquor was also brewed with black spring water from the mountain, buried atop the peak for centuries, absorbing the moonlight’s essence endlessly. A sip of the Moonlit Night Wine brought an icy chill that pierced the heart, leaving an unforgettable aftertaste.

“Besides Old Tian, I only told you that my feet are especially sensitive. If a member of the opposite sex touches them, it feels like an electric shock. Then my legs start shaking and wobbling, you know what I mean!” Liu Chunzhu said, her gaze sultry. The passion in her eyes seemed to drip with the essence of roses.

In this dimly lit room, no subordinate knelt awaiting punishment. Only two men sat side by side, dressed impeccably. One was naturally Liang Di Youzhen, and the other was a middle-aged man garbed in silk, his waist adorned with silk cords, wielding a feather fan and wearing a scholar’s cap.

If you don’t want to join the White Sect, just pay him his fee. I’m not stupid; I’ll learn it soon enough.

Chen Xiaojing was extremely happy at this moment. This matter could be considered perfectly resolved. At least their department of traditional Chinese medicine was saved. As long as it was preserved, there was hope.

Because the weather was hot, Liu Yangshi worried that Liu Shuanwang would develop bedsores from lying too long. So every once in a while, she wiped him down with warm water and helped him turn over.

In her heart, she withdrew her previous judgment of Nicole. It turned out that Nicole wasn’t careless about wardrobe malfunctions—it was simply that such things never happened to her.

“I was in such a rush to leave, I forgot to bring money,” Qin Fen said suddenly after patting his pockets left and right.

Now Li He’s appearance was completely changed, save for his voice and a few facial features.

Even though she loved sports and occasionally swam at the pool, the water temperature there was artificially heated.
