Chapter 111: The Tale of the Herbalist Woman

"Absolutely not," Gu Zhuo said without a moment's hesitation. "The Ten-Thousand Gold Vitality Pill cannot be taken excessively; it is a potent medicine, and you are only permitted one dose per month. When the time comes, you are to come to me and take the medicine under my supervision."

The medicines in the Pharmacy of Origins were somewhat peculiar—highly specific and often remarkably effective. When they hit the mark, the results were twice the effort for half the cost, but because the combinations of ingredients were so bizarre and often unconventional, they could be lethal if used incorrectly.

Fearing that Cheng Yingshuang might become greedy, [he...]

"But the ZAFT fleet is still out there. Given the current combat capability of the Archangel, it will be difficult to break through their blockade," Murrue said, looking worried.

If anything were to happen to her, she would have no face to meet Madam Zhu and her daughter, even in death.

Long Ling had not expected Huang Shan to be so impatient, demanding that he begin forging weapons immediately.

This was a technique frequently used on shields, but ordinary swords did not employ it. If one were to ask why, it is because it is extremely difficult to parry a beam with a sword, and there is no necessity to do so if one has a shield.

When these people charged in, they had only one target: the dark-faced Bao Zheng. They intended to kill no one but him.

At that moment, a sudden, jarring noise rang out in the tranquil Sun City. The steed beneath Feng Guozhang shuddered and collapsed with a thud; there was a bloody hole in the horse's head, from which dark blood trickled out.

"Everyone, rest for a moment, then we continue!" After a brief exchange, Yan Qing and Ning Fangyuan issued orders to their respective teams.

With a powerful swing of his arm, he drove the short blade firmly into the middle of the giant spider's two rows of eyes.

Just then, Yan Fu caught sight of several more Russian warships entering the fray through his binoculars.

Zi Xuan crossed her arms over her chest. "And if I don't? Fangfei, you had better be clear. I don't like playing guessing games." With that, she suddenly stepped forward twice, nearly colliding with Fangfei.

At the moment the flower pot fell, the young man who had draped his coat over her shoulders last time suddenly rushed over. Before she could react, he had swept her into his arms and spun her around several times.

That evening, considering that the elderly Madam Tao was over sixty and her health could not withstand such strain, Jiang Chuanxiong sent people to escort her back to the Jiang estate, while he and Zhen Huiyuan remained behind to keep watch.

It was over! It was truly over this time. If Li Yunshen already had a wife, did that not mean they had been courting death all along?

Gu Ning suddenly had a craving for steak, so upon seeing a Western restaurant, she pulled her car into the parking lot.

On the night of the charity gala, Wen Nuan had just shared an intimate moment with Shen Mo. Assuming it had been her own wishful thinking and too afraid to face him, she had gone to the gala with Peng Zhe instead.

"These posts were spread before we even returned. Practically the whole school is talking about it. If they are to be expelled just for talking, isn't that..." Gong Zhe glanced at the boys in Class One, not knowing what else to say.

She had always considered herself a darling of the heavens, but ever since this Yun Qianyi had appeared before her, she felt suppressed at every turn.

He had to admit that Ye Ying was gifted in medicine. She studied with great diligence and seriousness, even proposing ideas that left him in awe.

The lamps at the city gates were not maintained by individual shops but paid for by the local government. To be willing to light so many, it seemed the local officials were truly committed to making the Thousand Beauties Festival a success.

For the sake of further development, the Wang family joined forces with the Su and Li families to pressure the declining Zheng family, forcing them to sell off much of their assets and family businesses.

However, Huyan Zhuqing remained unperturbed. Seeing the embroidered ball descending, he leaped high once more, reaching out to catch it. Unexpectedly, another figure traced a graceful arc through the air; instead of reaching for the ball, the person charged straight at Huyan Zhuqing with sword in hand.

Ares was also stunned by the roar, and then, shaken by the tremors, he was thrown to the ground, rolling quite a distance while clutching Melu in his arms.
