Chapter 47 Breach of Promise

Not only Song Qiao, but Shen Ruoxi's expression also changed drastically as she watched from the side.
Never had anyone expected that Mu Yi would take the initiative to pull Song Qiao into his arms.
"Ah-Yi, what are you—"
Mu Yi grabbed Song Qiao's arm with one hand to keep her from struggling, his tone harsh, "If you don't want your hair, just say so."

After completing his slam dunk, Shi Lei shook his fist fiercely at the fans and then celebrated with his teammates one by one.

Old Madam Zhang could even stoop to scheming over this to benefit the Cui family; was there anything she wouldn't do?

A maid brought in some pastries. When Hanxia, keeping watch outside the door, asked Yun Qian—noting there were no urgent matters to discuss—Yun Qian told her to let the person in.

Otherwise, if he miscalculated the Human King's strength, and once he found the path to the sun, took fighter jets to attack the Human King, wouldn't that simply be walking straight into the jaws of death to perish?

Longhuan Island had been reached, which meant Sambis was about to leave. Though this naval officer had not spent a long time with them, his heroic and loyal nature deep in his bones resonated perfectly with them. Over this period, they had already become friends.

A gentle breeze drifted by, fluttering the curtains. Under the shroud of moonlight, aided by its pale glow, he clearly saw the scene inside.

However, after waiting all night, the Roman legion never appeared. The next morning, just as the Parthians were preparing scaffolding to repair the city wall, the piercing blasts of battle horns resounded across the land.

During this tribulation, because most of her spiritual power had been transformed from absorbing and refining the energy of inner demons, it was not fully compatible with her true self and contained too many impurities. This not only subjected her to an extra wave of heavenly lightning but also nearly caused her to fail.

Seeing Anthony's impatient expression, Cleopatra could no longer restrain herself. Turning serious, she stared fixedly at the robust man before her and pressed him for answers.

The Seventh Prince seemed somewhat anxious, but Imperial Noble Consort Lan was a bit flustered at the moment and failed to notice it. Fortunately, the Fourth Prince was observant; he lowered his voice to comfort him, leaving the Seventh Prince looking sullen and dejected.

By now, the Zubat in the air was merely putting up a desperate last stand and posed no real threat. The situation was far better than he had imagined.

Princess Kunyi proceeded to recount the dispatch of troops by the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, and England. Carried away by her tale, she repeatedly brought up Zheng Chong without realizing it.

These new intelligence reports had only surfaced after the previous courier had set out. The earlier messenger had been delayed on the road by a spell of late-spring cold, creating a full week's gap in timeliness between the former dispatch and the current one.

Mr. Niu, who called today, spoke in a tone so gentle it left one guessing his true intentions.

Jin Nu'er felt a chill in his heart and promptly agreed. He often delivered messages for various factions, and occasionally encountering someone too lazy to write a reply who sent a verbal message instead was nothing out of the ordinary.

Turning around, the two heavenly soldiers walked back toward the sky-ship parked outside the door and continued hauling the rest of the cargo.

Dian was just about to introduce herself when she noticed that the twin-tailed girl running up behind looked rather familiar... not that she had met her before, but she seemed to have seen a photograph of her, albeit wearing a kimono.

This frenzy of intent was no ordinary mental attack; the Grand Luo Talisman Decree showed no intention of unleashing its power.

The stalwart guards of the Brocade-Clad Guard were not generals in the true sense, but rather an honor guard, somewhat akin to a modern national flag-raising detail.

The young man in the white lab coat acknowledged the call, picked up his medical kit, and rushed toward the direction of the shouting.

Li Qiniang pondered for a long time before finally deciding to make a move. She had no intention of taking Concubine Qiao's life; she merely had someone slip a drug into her meals—a sterility potion. A son was already quite enough for the Qiao woman; if she were allowed to bear two more, she might genuinely threaten her own position.
