Chapter Twenty-Six: Li Mang.

If Grace was willing to accompany her, that would naturally be ideal. After changing her clothes, Lu Xia came out and asked, “Can we buy it once we get to the black market?”

“Not necessarily. Sometimes we have to wait and see whether the auction house has any in stock. It would be best not to purchase it from private individuals.”

Although Grace did not explain in detail why it was inadvisable to buy from private individuals, Lu Xia more or less understood what he meant.

Potions held by private sellers were usually exorbitantly expensive and might even be counterfeit. By comparison—

This expert’s temples were streaked with white, and his gaze was sharp. If Wu Lei had been there, he would certainly have recognized that the man was at least a Saint-rank Supreme Heavenly expert. He had actually come by shattering the void itself.

Anna sat beside Wu You. The more they talked, the more they found themselves in agreement, and before long Anna was nestling in Wu You’s arms.

Chu Lanxi was an important member of the Yanxie faction of the Divine Race. To show mercy to one’s enemies was to be cruel to oneself.

The man they had encountered in the elevator, meanwhile, had come specifically to confuse those who had arrived for the audition.

When Wu You heard this, he felt he had heard of the sect before, though he did not have any particularly deep impression of it.

By the time Keke was startled again, she was already resting comfortably in Qian Yunche’s arms, held in a bridal carry.

This time, Yiruo Han was held completely immobile. The only part of her body that could still move was probably her mouth, twisted askew with rage.

The Lord of the Holy Church—their first meeting should have been six years earlier, when he had only just entered the sect.

The Demon Lord Mo’s demon clan was just as it had been before the battle. The shops on both sides of the street stood open, and pedestrians streamed past without end. From time to time, young demons ran laughing down the avenue.

The three of them exchanged bitter smiles. Seeing everyone behaving like rabid dogs and paying no attention to Yang Yonglin’s corpse, they immediately began searching the area for officers again. A few sharp-eyed men had already spotted them and were pointing them out; it seemed they would be coming over any moment.

“Let me see. I’ve been so busy cultivating that I haven’t had a proper look at this cultivation-transfer jade slip yet!” Xu Feng explained, somewhat sheepishly.

Imperial Physician Wu saw the bloodstains on the bedding and realized that the situation was grave. He did not dare delay for even a moment. He promptly knelt down and placed his fingers against Rumo’s wrist. After a brief moment, the expression on his face grew increasingly tense.

Huang Rengui smiled smugly when he heard this. If he had not happened to meet her that time and formed a favorable connection by purchasing the lyrics, how could they be enjoying such a pleasant collaboration now? When all was said and done, it truly had been a fortuitous encounter.

“Fine.” Since the person involved genuinely did not wish to speak, Murong really could not force the matter any further, could he?

“The Laundry Bureau.” She felt the world spinning around her, everything twisting out of shape. Her master, who had once doted on her most, had suddenly become so terrifying. Her master now seemed like a demon, seizing her “weakness” and desperately “exploiting” it!

Even so, I insisted on putting on a short-sleeved shirt and casual trousers and going for a stroll in Royal City Grand Plaza. This was in a district of Jiangfeng City called Royal City District. As for Royal City Grand Plaza, it was the largest square in the area. Many people went there in the mornings to walk and exercise, and in the evenings they took their lovers there to gaze at the moon.

Li Ling had indeed deduced the truth in an instant. Before Crescent River had completely dried up, there had actually been a chance to relocate. It was only because the village chief was hidebound that they had missed the best opportunity.

“Have you finished being moved? Where are we going? I’m completely unfamiliar with this continent.” Leng Yue teased him, trying to calm the sudden surge of emotion in her heart.

Their shop had originally been opened in the Fourth School District, the area within Academy City with the highest concentration of restaurants. But after all the other shopkeepers pleaded with them together, they had no choice but to leave the Fourth School District and move to the Seventh.

On the other side, Zhou Cang could not break through either. Xiahou Dun intercepted him from a hill nearby, commanding the high ground. Arrows and rolling stones came raining down, and his subordinates suffered heavy casualties.

Moreover, his old disciple Zhang Tingxiu could hardly be called a warmhearted man. Yet for Su Ruotong, he had been running about tirelessly. He was beginning to worry that the young Su Ruotong might have given his old disciple some kind of bewitching potion.
