Volume 1, Chapter 54: He and She Discuss Love

"That is a good proposal," Ye Yuntang replied in a soft voice.

Xie Chenyan gave a light cough and asked, "What are the two of you chatting about?"

Before Ye Yuntang could speak, Noble Lady Min chimed in first, "Your Majesty, I was just telling older sister that we want Your Majesty to take us out for a boat ride on the lake!"

Xie Chenyan fell silent for a moment.

After walking for about the time it takes to burn half an incense stick, dwellings gradually appeared as they proceeded further. Knowing that her master was getting on in years and fearing he might be tired, Chunhua ordered everyone to take a rest, then quietly asked Lian Yuncheng to join her in finding a carriage.

"Due to the purchase limit on the Longevity Pills, we were only fortunate enough to acquire one. We would like to buy another ten pills each, and we kindly ask President Deng and the Heavenly Emperor to show some flexibility," said Sun Wangzu.

"Very well," said the Fox King, leading Princess Jade-Face back to his dwelling. After a lengthy discussion, Princess Jade-Face listened with an expression of utter astonishment.

As the sickly yet elegant woman uttered these words, a faint blush inevitably crept across her face, making her already bewitching appearance all the more captivating.

However, Qin Ge had just taken a look and noticed a heavy accumulation of dust at the fracture site of the plank, with no distinct footprints visible. This showed that the plank had broken beforehand, and the recess was already there. That raised the question: how did the person fall down?

Except for the falling leaves, everyone was frozen in shock. No one expected that Zhang Yifan would resort to action the moment he spoke.

His father had actually conquered the Hall of Miraculous Mist, which thrilled him immensely, as he had no intention of missing out on such a fun and wonderful opportunity to enhance his cultivation.

"Wait, what on earth are these Fiend-folk you keep talking about, and why have I never heard of them?" Fang晓慧 (Fang Xiaohui) asked deliberately, then glanced at He Xiangdong, waiting for his reply.

"Ten thousand? You want me to open a portal and deliver someone right to your doorstep? Why don't you fly up to the heavens instead?" The system's loli voice was practically bristling with fury.

"Spirits of grass and trees, entwine!" Meng Xingchen channeled his spiritual energy, causing the vegetation on the ground to grow instantly into colossal proportions, transforming into vines that coiled around Chiyi.

"The only Heart-Protecting Pill I had on me just now has been destroyed. Right now, I am merely using my true qi to sustain Mo'er's heart pulse, which can last for half a month at most. If Mo'er does not ingest a Heart-Protecting Pill after half a month, she will die of heart failure," Gong Wuchen said with a heavy tone.

"Remember what I told you earlier: under no circumstances are you to act on your own accord. That is the most important thing." Following Grandpa Qin's prior instructions, they were to say nothing once inside and let Grandpa Qin handle everything.

Yet Wan Guiyi's restraints proved completely ineffective, serving only to stall for a moment before Ruo Qingfeng struck forward with his sword once again.

The sandstorm lasted for a full hour and a half. Over such a long duration, more than five hundred million martial artists lost their strength one after another. The duration was too protracted, and the concentration of the Spirit-Stagnation Pill was too potent for anyone to withstand, whether they were at the peak of the God-Exceeding realm or the first stage of the Early God realm.

In just an instant, the moonlight turned unusually desolate and chilling. Amidst the hazy glow, Ning Yue mistook Zhan Long for someone else. She returned a smile, but felt a surge of deep sorrow welling up from within.

Regardless of her current whereabouts, or the discussion surrounding that matter, there was nothing at all. This seemed rather abnormal, prompting Luo Yu to raise an eyebrow slightly.

During the time he had been away, that man had no idea where he had run off to; it seemed he would need to conduct a thorough search.

Jun Yao frequently traveled to the Middle East and Africa, and he knew all too well the kind of life ordinary people lived there. Seeing such already pitiful individuals subjected to brutal slaughter made it difficult for him to suppress his rising fury.

"Seeing you all alone and wandering here, you must have encountered some hardships. However, even if you have brought a catastrophe upon yourself, I have my own ways to ensure your safety, so you need not dwell on it with regret," Zhan Long said, offering a gentle smile.
