Chapter 116: The Ailing Emperor

Su Li, upon hearing Dai Jieyu's words, felt not anger but rather joy in her heart, though she feigned displeasure on her face and asked, "What do you mean by that, Your Highness?" Dai Jieyu had just realized the purpose behind Tang Yu’s summons, so when she saw Su Li earlier, she quickly thought of this remark. Now that Su Li had responded, Dai Jieyu found herself momentarily at a loss for how to reply.

"I should have realized long ago; our meeting at the airport was no mere coincidence!" Wu Wei declared with certainty.

"Greetings, senior brother!" From afar, Mu Bai cupped his fists in salute. Sitting cross-legged beside the main hall, the attendant disciples upon hearing this, seeing Mu Bai clad in white robes—marked as a disciple of the Qi Condensation realm—did not rise but nodded slightly in return.

Next to the front desk was a spacious waiting room, furnished with a circle of milky white genuine leather sofas and a massive aquarium, where several long golden fish swam leisurely.

"We will take it under consideration," Yu Xiayan said solemnly, prompting Su Ye to glance back at her unexpectedly.

It was a power capable of devastating the heavens and earth, yet all of this unfolded with merely a single gesture on Feng Xing’s part.

Zhou Mengqi asked again, curling her legs beneath her and drawing into a tight ball, gripping the quilt so tightly that her knuckles turned faintly white.

Zhou Lu’s decision was resolute and unchanging; after all, he had once been an emperor.

After burying the bodies, Mu Bai moved a large blue stone into the village and carved upon it: "Grave of the Nameless Village." Since none in the village had survived and their names were unknown, this was the only fitting inscription.

It was said that Xiao Boyan had returned to the capital several days ago. The eldest princess had even sent someone to summon the princess back, but she stubbornly lingered in the separate courtyard, refusing to leave.

"Commander Liu, last night when we went to scout the mountain, the theft of the Nine-Dragon White Jade Cup was not committed by that group of thieves," Yun Xi stated directly.

He had long wanted to eliminate Lin Baicheng; arrogant and imperious, he came and went through the palace as if it were nothing, while the emperor himself dared only to fume silently.

For low-ranking soldiers among the free troops, their training was sufficient, but for their leaders, such skills were far from adequate.

Watching the interaction between Li Xinheng and Ji Shaohua, even the usually cold and aloof executive assistant, as frigid as a snow lotus on a mountain peak, couldn’t help but smile.

Though the devouring beast seemed unimpressive aside from its maw, the hunting team all knew that its seemingly innocuous, round, and plump body was not only highly resilient but also carried venom.

She looked utterly heartbroken, her quiet sobs tinged with a mournful tone that revealed she was utterly devastated.

Meanwhile, the audience in the stands remained unusually silent. After Gu Beicheng shouted once, no further sounds arose. Everyone shifted their gaze toward the direction of Gu Beicheng’s piercing eyes, eager to see who dared challenge their guest.

Before falling asleep, Mo Ziqian had held Shao Shao’s hand, but upon waking, he found himself alone in the guest room, with no sign of her.

With a flick of his duster, Hua Wudao summoned swirling winds and clouds; the stars in the sky above Yunyan Temple dimmed suddenly, only to blaze brighter than before moments later.

In later times, supermarkets during holidays were said to be packed with crowds, bustling under the guise of festive promotions, with people lining up outside to shop.

At first, as the Daochen Codex operated, Li Yang’s mind clearly perceived the fundamental structure and operational trajectory of this natural formation array.

After purchasing numerous mansions, Li Jun felt a bit overwhelmed—visiting so many places to view houses was truly a test of endurance.

Perhaps the only remaining suspense now was how many rounds ahead Perugia could clinch the championship, and whether they would break the record for the earliest victory.
