Chapter 45: Rest After Exhaustion

Tang Yu was momentarily at a loss, so she said, “No matter. As long as we raise the money, the biggest problem before us will be resolved, and Su Li won't be able to stir up any real trouble. Still, we can't be careless. Assign a few people to keep watch around the Prime Minister’s residence. Record everyone who goes in and out each day.”

Eunuch Feng replied, “Yes, I obey. However, Su Li has been working in the shadows for years. It may be hard to keep him under surveillance.”

...

“This gold sunlight represents you. You’re writing about your relationship with your father, and this rain stands for her. Isn’t that right?” Hua Jian tried to keep her composure, driven by her curiosity for secrets.

The young man wore the simplest of clothes: a student’s haircut, a white shirt, blue jeans, and a youth cap. His whole appearance was pure and spotless, and his clean smile made him exceptionally striking.

As the roar of engines drew nearer, several vehicles soon arrived. From a few military jeeps stepped down a group of uniformed soldiers. At the front stood a man in his sixties, tall and upright, with Hu Shuang slightly behind him to his side.

But after a great catastrophe, the savage beasts were nearly wiped out. No one knows how much time passed before the first group of humans arrived on this planet.

Lu Changhe laughed heartily and turned to Han Xiangzi. “Old Daoist, I’ve always been too impulsive. About what happened earlier—please, forgive me.”

Heavens. Heavens. Did she really hear right? Leng Litian had already found her mother. He hadn’t lied to her, had he?

All of a sudden, he felt a sharp, piercing gaze upon him. Turning his head, he saw that Hu Meiniang had also woken up. She was glaring at him now, her face twisted with hatred.

Helian Nuo could hear the sound of people swallowing nervously—including himself. Although he had seen Hongxia’s body before, he was still stunned now. Her fair skin seemed to shimmer with light, making it almost impossible to look directly, yet he couldn't bear to avert his eyes.

However, when the embarrassed, sweating Minister of Rites stepped forward for introductions and exchanged pleasantries, the hearts of the other Yanxuan officials finally eased a little.

Nodding slightly, his consciousness once again entered the Descending Scale. A cluster of purple flames surrounded a core of even deeper violet spiritual consciousness. Instantly, the once brilliant white glow within the Descending Scale was suffused with purple.

People often say: circumstances change lives. But things are never that simple. Just as Sun Lijuan was heavily pregnant and about to give birth, a dramatic turn changed their situation and relationship.

The crowd’s gaze swept past Tang Qing, finally settling in all directions around her, as if searching for something.

Liu Mengtian sat in the hotel, holding her guitar, a little gloomy as she sat on the sofa. Beside her was an iPad, where she was video chatting with her senior. At that moment, her senior was enjoying a bath while chatting with Tiantian.

This was no trouble for Fat Pig. With one hand free, he pinched the Hanging Ghost’s nose. Unable to breathe through his nose, the Hanging Ghost had no choice but to open his mouth.

After Tang Qingyu spoke, she took a seat and lifted her gaze towards Ji Yuan, her expression full of contempt.

“Whether you speak or not is not up to you,” said the Attendant, stepping back. Behind him, two late-stage Golden Core cultivators from the Li family stepped forward, wielding spiritual swords, and together attacked Yun Bo.

A drop of plant sap in Yoon Ah’s hand turned into a faint mist, enveloping all nine heads of the three-eyed, nine-headed python. The giant snake, already somewhat dizzy, had no time to dodge. The mist entered its mouth and nose, and in the blink of an eye, it fell unconscious.

Heavens! Taohua’s sudden cry startled Liu Haitao, who was lying atop her, nearly to death. The commotion also awakened his in-laws sleeping in the next room. Aunt Liu stared at the ceiling, tears streaming silently onto her pillow.
