Chapter 63

"I naturally understand. Prime Minister Mu is the only person I can rely on now." While the Empress Dowager surrounded herself with various high-ranking officials, he had only one person left whom he could truly trust.

Mu Liqiao gave a soft laugh. "That sounds like something very difficult to obtain. For a box of rouge, I'm afraid it's hardly worth it." She originally intended to turn and walk away, but her heart was filled with a rising tide of curiosity, her feet seemingly nailed to the ground, unable to budge.

For instance, if you only know how to communicate with elemental energy and barely manage to condense it into phantom power to strike out, you have merely completed a series of processes in using phantom power. You only know how to use it, and during this process of usage, the elemental energy flows away just like phantom power.

The wind blades pierced into the skin of the Taowu. With a flick of its tail and a stamp of its tiger paws, the Taowu actually shook all those wind blades back.

It was possible to exert force and break free, but he hesitated for a moment, turned around, and saw a kitchen knife placed on the noodle chef's chopping board—fierce and intimidating.

The madam rolled her eyes and made a helpless gesture, utterly speechless, yet she had to speak.

Just imagine, even if he were to defect to someone else, such as the Maitreya Buddha, could that former Mother of Buddha truly trust him?

"Enough! I don't care about any Founder or whatever! Monk, did you deliberately come here to stir up trouble?" Han Kunyan strode up to Fangzheng, glaring angrily.

Sitting together and sensing each other's breath and heartbeat, Zhenyi's mind cleared and settled accordingly. She sniffed, rubbed her stinging eyes, and her face grew vibrant with life.

If his behavior just now was merely a performance—acting out a scene before Miss Yun—then this moment came straight from the heart.

A portion of the inspection team's achievements was permitted to be published in the newspapers, which not only greatly boosted the morale of the team but also indirectly heightened the enthusiasm of Beijing citizens for reporting and exposing offenses.

People from the back of the longevity studio saw how unbearable it was and brought out a cushion for her to kneel on so she could feel a bit more comfortable.

At nine in the evening, in front of the courtyard gate in Nanluoguxiang, He Jinyin arrived carrying a heavy bedding roll. Pushing the door open, he stepped right in, giving Yan Bugui, who was stirring coal ash in the west corridor, a nasty fright.

Su Ran's thinking stalled for 0.01 seconds. Big brother, you're just a male supporting character; how much space did you expect the author to waste on the detailed descriptions of your daily life???

The old beggar, Hong Erqiang, mustered his spirits and wanted to continue the fight, but before he could even execute a move, the twin dragons playing with a pearl tattoo on his back gradually faded. His robust physique also progressively withered, returning to the appearance of that frenzied, mad beggar from before.

Rat-a-tat let out a squeak, leaped forcefully onto my shoulder, and continued to use my hair like a steering wheel, pulling hard toward whichever side he wanted to go.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help shivering involuntarily. I felt that since Xue Qiancheng could tell me such a life-and-death secret without reservation, he must have already prepared to silence me.

Especially after Ye Qing agreed to pay two mid-grade Ginseng Essence Pills as compensation, Old Li agreed without the slightest hesitation, patting his chest to guarantee the successful completion of the commission.

Later on, Xue Qiancheng rambled on about many things from the past, including how he and Mei Xuan met and got to know each other, how their affections deepened, and how they made their choices upon learning of their respective destinies.

In the past, one might not encounter such a sight even once a month, but now, the skies of the Immortal Realm had become invisible highways, with tens of thousands of flying boats and celestial junks shuttling back and forth in an endless stream.

Zhao Gou shook his head helplessly, completely defeated by Zhao Yougong, and thoroughly despised him in his heart.

Lan Xinyan silently lit a cigarette and took a fierce drag: When a teacher is played for a fool by a student, where does their dignity go? I want to commit suicide.

Hu Weizong was fuming. Every time he was in the middle of enjoying himself, he would receive a call from Li Hao. If it were any other friend, he would have broken off relations right then and there.

Zhao Gou was his enemy, yet she felt no aversion toward her dependence on him or his teasing, which made Jinzhi feel rather surreal. Listening to the sound of the ocean waves, her heart rose and fell turbulently, remaining unsettled for a long time; she didn't even notice when Zhao Gou returned.

Yet he felt no particular regret. In this life, apart from eternal youth, he had obtained everything he desired.

Her innocence did not mean she was foolish; on the contrary, she was quite clever. It was just that staying by Li Hao's side all this time, she simply hadn't needed to use her brains for anything.

Tang Chen easily picked up the gold coins dropped on the ground and locked his gaze onto the next long-armed ape.

Hua Tianhai immediately ordered the fighter jets to take off and completely sink the Japanese aircraft carriers. One hundred Lightning jets instantly surged forward, pursuing the Japanese forces and launching fierce bombings, while the East China Sea Fleet also frantically joined the pursuit.

Although Li Hao's divine sense had given Dula a certain shock, her goal today was not that, but rather to rummage through Li Hao's memories.

Lorraine's fingers moved slightly, and an arrow of flame trailed by embers dragged a long line of fire, instantly reaching Ouman's face.

"Hoo," Liu Feiyang took a deep breath. Under the influence of alcohol, he was faintly losing control of himself. Irritable—extremely irritable. He wanted to knock everyone to the ground to vent the raging fire in his heart.

The Town-Suppression Cauldron once more emitted a "rumbling" sound as space expanded yet again. This time, the expansion wasn't as massive as the last, measuring only fifty million miles.

To make a long story short, the change in the light happened in a mere instant. Because they had been anxiously watching Lorraine, Los and the others witnessed firsthand the process of the light transforming on Lorraine's right hand.

His body was curled up like a shrimp, trembling all over like a sieve, and powerless moans escaped his throat. The pain was so intense that he no longer even had the strength to scream.

Hannibal appeared somewhat dissatisfied, as if he had splashed water all over someone and they ought to be overwhelmingly grateful to him.
