Chapter 138: Should We Tell Everyone the Other Ending?
As for why she did not deny her connection to Gu Ruoyun, it was because the Profound Yin Palace had already tracked her down and must have conducted a thorough investigation. Even if she denied it, the other party would not believe her.
However, actually seeing so many people die such miserable deaths before her eyes still filled her with uncontrollable rage.
Before my unlucky self, renowned as the number one villain of the martial world, could finish speaking, I was dragged away by the ear in front of this massive crowd by the number one young hero of the martial world... Damn it all, if word of this gets out, how am I ever going to show my face in the martial world again? Ran Sui, even if you hand over all your precious medicinal pills, it won't be enough to compensate me for this loss.
Listening to the murmuring discussions, a sudden sense of foreboding rose in Wen Ya's heart. Her gaze slowly shifted toward Gu Ruoyun's face, and upon seeing the latter's calm and tranquil expression, her inner unease grew even stronger. She opened her mouth as if to speak, but ultimately closed it again.
"My master taught me that the mortal world is full of suffering and turmoil, with emotional attachment as the ultimate torment from which one must never become deeply entangled. Only by casting off the seven emotions and six desires can one attain the realm of a supreme true god!" Jiaoruo recited a stack of lofty principles.
He cared nothing for fairness or justice, nor did he care for principles. At this moment, the only thing that mattered to him was whether Si Zhijian could be happy and whether she would no longer be consumed by sorrow.
As for the remainder, it was divided among the eight teachers, and even Jiang Xun's wife received a small share because she cooked meals at the school.
Having spent a long time following Cang Luochen, he naturally understood that whenever Cang Luochen wore this kind of faint smile on the battlefield, the enemy forces were bound to suffer misfortune.
Over the past two years, the imperial court had continuously expanded its borders and established a large number of new provinces. However, these newly pioneered frontier territories were still just pretty shapes on a map for the time being. Only by stepping up the migration of settlers to populate these regions and stationing troops there could the empire truly claim to have expanded its territory.
Could this room have been prepared for me? White gauze hung across the windows, fluttering gently in the breeze. I crawled onto the massive bed, and it smelled so fragrant... My thoughts drifted into a dreamlike landscape as I slowly fell into a deep sleep.
Professor Liu, however, fell silent. He walked off to the side and said no more. The others found this strange, yet no one voiced their thoughts. After being imprisoned for so long, having a few eccentric quirks was completely normal, wasn't it?
Di Qing's concern actually reflected the worries of many. They had gone to great lengths to build up this force, and if it were to be wiped out entirely over a matter that had nothing to do with them, it would undoubtedly be a loss that outweighed any potential gain.
Sun Kang had followed Tao Qian for many years, and having listened to speeches about restoring the Han Dynasty day in and day out, he eventually came to believe that he, too, possessed a loyal heart devoted to the Han house.
Just as the door was closing, the ghost soldier felt as though someone had brushed past his side, then shook his head, assuming it was merely the mountain wind.
Dian Wei started to speak, but stopped himself. Guo Jia shot him a meaningful glance, and only then did Dian Wei follow Guo Jia and the others as they retreated outside.
"Zang Xuangao, if you're a real man, fight me to the death!" Yierlun's voice echoed from outside the tent.
Dian Man whipped his head around and found Dian Wei glaring fiercely at him. In an instant, Dian Man understood—he had failed to follow Hao Zhao's military orders, which was what ultimately led to their defeat.
Although Bai Sen was unable to truly confront him head-on, merely managing to slightly obstruct him was enough to shock the onlookers. The armored figures could hardly believe their eyes.
The Golden Crow Clan's Ninth Prince used this opportunity to retreat, shaking with fury as he wished to avoid a direct physical clash with Ye Chen. At the same time, he was deeply shocked; the Solar Holy Energy was the very foundation upon which the Golden Crow Clan established itself among the top-tier great clans of the demon realm, and he never expected the opponent to shatter it with such ease.
Only Ou Ge possessed the capital to fight her. First of all, the gap in martial prowess was vast; secondly, when it came to scheming, she was no match for Ou Ge. Even when complaining, Sami couldn't be bothered to intervene, and most importantly, the fatty was in Ou Ge's hands.
Ji Xiyan instantly surged with energy. Hanging up the phone, she bolted upright from the bed, washed up, changed into the new Chanel professional suit she had bought yesterday, applied light makeup, and checked herself out in the mirror.
Hu Xiaoquan and Ben Leijingyun Bu had been of great help in the early stages, but they were no longer suited for him now.
Inside the formation master's manor, the remaining formation masters watched as Qiao Jian lost an arm, his shrill screams echoing through the palace, chilling them to the bone.
If the filming went smoothly, Ji Xiyan would reap massive benefits, because all of their footage would belong to her.
Ruoxin reached out and gently embraced Shang Si's trembling body, her brows knitted tightly. The incident had happened so abruptly that she had no idea how to handle it for the moment.
This resulted in Changmen naturally accompanying them toward the location of the ancient ruins while being pulled along by Tian Dashan.
Z's brilliant blue eyes snapped open, casting a casual glance at Nangong Ming before he closed them again to rest his mind, maintaining an air of detached serenity.
Ahem, He Ruoqian seemed to have forgotten to introduce the three freaks in our dormitory. Counting down from second, third, and fourth, they were: Genius Lan, Sensational Xu, and Wealthy Xie. These were the codenames given to them by He Ruoqian—self-explanatory and concise, which later gained widespread acceptance.
Casa remarked that he had been drinking and could not drive, so he and Williams both climbed into Mr. Bai's car, taking the back seat with lowered heads as they listened to the two men bickering.
That very day, three beauties, one imperial concubine, and twenty-four court attendants and eunuchs who had entered the imperial garden were directly escorted into the Eastern Depot by the secret agents.
"Silly auntie, you are not allowed to say things like that in the future." Gu Zizhan slowly uttered, stepping forward once more.
Lose a little weight, do a bit of skincare, and I am certain you are a beauty at heart; otherwise, your man wouldn't have married you back then.
"Since it is his wish... I shall simply go back to sleep. Instead of guarding me, the Eldest Young Master might as well go back to guarding your father. I am weak with no power to truss a chicken and cannot break ropes as thick as these." Mu Lan said with biting sarcasm.
The place where Lin Jingyi appeared this time was entirely different from her previous location, and the architecture was visibly much more dilapidated than before.
In order to search for Han Yiyi and Jiang Pingping, Jiang Zhongshan and his party were definitely among the very last people to set off for the imperial examinations, leaving extremely late.
