Chapter 48: Expounding Wondrous Truths with Universal Teaching, Testing Sincere Hearts in Absurdity
A dish of pickled vegetables, half a bowl of clear porridge, and three or four slices of freshly made spiced dried tofu. In the square courtyard, the morning light poured into the skylight.
Cheng Heng mentally sorted out the current situation of the Ying family, pondering how to play the role of this tutor—who was "equivalent to wearing a long gown." As for taking in a young woman like Ying An, the tutor probably didn't mind the queue of a braid on top of his head all that much.
The spiced dried tofu grew more fragrant the more he chewed, the aroma of the beans and brine filling his nasal passages. Cheng Heng's gaze instinctively fell upon the chopsticks.
After the match ended, Fan Zhong went to the exit to wait for Xue Rong to leave the arena. During the early stages of the tournament, due to the massive number of participants, each person generally only had one match per day.
Gu Baiye hesitated for a moment, feeling that his cousin's words made a lot of sense, and thus obediently stood by the family's front door.
"There's nothing to apologize for. In the end, you stopped, didn't you?" Meng You's tone was calm, yet carried a hint of indifference.
Although no more enemies had emerged from the spatial rift since that colossal mechanical monster charged in, who could tell what twists and turns the future situation might take? Right now, they had to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to seal the Gate of Space.
Seeing this, Ren Yicheng channeled his Longevity Energy, spurred his blade aura once more, and lashed out with a backhanded technique: "Reverse Blade Returning Wolf Shadow."
He had already understood that relying solely on static meditation and cultivation improved one's realm at far too slow a pace; only by gaining a profound insight into the essence of the realm could one's cultivation truly achieve significant advancement.
Hearing the commotion, everyone looked over. Fu Mei'e remained silent, but through years of living together day and night, Li Mingyue could still sense her panic and unease.
Once the transaction was completed, and with Lord Saint Ruler making a move, wouldn't taking back these three pieces be an effortless task?
Gu Xingzhi looked at the dark circles under his eyes, feeling a pang of heartache, but the path was one she had chosen herself, and he could not interfere.
To avoid exposing the existence of the dream world, Meng You decided to slightly conceal his own actions and credit the rescue to an "unidentified wandering expert."
Having listened to Ya Guqing's words, Gu Waiyan raised his foot to search for the person without a second word, only to be blocked by Jiang Lingque.
Especially that Jiang Lianji, who not only stubbornly occupied his spot without leaving, but also deliberately fed Ruan Zhinan various fruits and pastries right in front of Qiu Meng.
Having finished speaking, Feng Xian waved his hand to the younger generation behind him, his figure shifting to descend from the boat in the blink of an eye, heading straight toward the direction of the Pin舫 on his own.
The wooden Lu Juexing was pulled away by Qin Yue, who loved playing with a fan, leaving only the sisters Shui Juezhu and Hua Jueyu at the table.
Under X-ray vision, the spiritual energy on every single character was exceptionally dense; upon closer inspection, one would even find that the handwriting looked as fresh as if it had just been written.
Lady Huang sat by the table, cradling a large bowl containing some unknown food, eating it bite by bite. Half of a cooled-down roast chicken still sat on the table. A slight sniff of her nose told her it was definitely the handiwork of Old Honest Li.
Upon hearing Uncle Liang's words, Yun Xuan's expression immediately turned rather ugly. Two cultivators approaching the Great Perfection? If the two of them joined forces, they would probably be comparable to entities of the Earthly Kun.
Zhongli You arranged for the brother and sister to live in his own guest room, ensuring they were free from worries about food and clothing. But after all, it was someone else's home; no matter how well others treated her, it ultimately gave her the feeling of living under another's roof.
Feng Xian had originally held no pleasant expression toward Baishi, but upon hearing the two words "fine wine," he felt somewhat tempted. Swallowing hard and hesitating for a moment, he finally beckoned Baishi to step forward and speak.
3. People who spend every day together, as long as they put on night clothes and veil their faces, become completely unrecognizable to each other.
"Grandmother? What grandmother?" Lian Tian almost blurted out, fortunately remembering the situation at the critical moment.
