Chapter 59
Lu Yuanqiao was in an even better mood. Walking lightly over to the dining table prepared by Mother Tang, and seeing that there was indeed a portion set aside for him, he began to eat with a beaming smile, even sipping a few times on a beverage he usually rarely drank.
At the summit of Mount Tai, dazzling rays of light pierced across a radius of tens of thousands of miles, allowing everyone to clearly witness that divine radiance atop the mountain.
Then, countless flashes of blades and shadows of swords swept across the firmament, the continuous clanging of metallic weapons echoing endlessly. Star after star plummeted from the heavens, hurtling toward the sword immortals. More and more celestial anomalies manifested in the sky, and the tribulations grew increasingly fierce: fire and lightning, blade lights and sword beams, surging rivers and falling stars, all appearing in abundance.
The street lamps burned brightly along the avenues, and the shops on both sides were fully illuminated. The night of Jeju Island was as bright as day.
The young woman grew even more displeased. "Could it be that having a background allows one to arbitrarily decide the destiny of others, or to chase people away on a mere whim?" Evidently, the young woman was truly angered, no longer caring about her surroundings as she spoke her mind directly.
At the time, Chen Fan felt that this person was unfathomable in depth, and he had also learned of this person's identity from the High Priest.
Today, Yi'an wore a court dress embroidered with phoenixes, without any jewelry adorning her body. Yet, with her tall figure and powerful aura, she still looked quite striking in it.
I originally thought he could be saved, but now I realize he is beyond redemption. My existence certainly holds no particular viewpoint, and I truly hope we can refrain from letting our imaginations run so wild like this.
"Let's go, let's head out." Yanchen took Bael's hand, and together they appeared before Chu Haiyu.
The reason human beings were able to become the masters of the Nine Provinces naturally boiled down to their intelligence and ingenuity. Over thousands of years, humans continuously summarized their own cultivation processes, compiling everything they experienced during practice so that all human beings could cultivate.
Who would have thought that as soon as those words left my mouth, expressions of astonishment appeared on the faces of everyone around me, staring at me as if looking at an extraterrestrial creature.
The higher the two climbed, the lower the temperature dropped, and the sparser the vegetation became, transitioning from broad-leaved trees at the start to conifers, then to moss, until finally nothing could be seen except for the boundless white snow.

The others gave chase as well. Seeing this, Ye Tian flew forward to block their path, engaging them in fierce combat.
She could not fall into traps again. Since the position of empress undoubtedly belonged to Xiniang, why bother fussing over such trivial matters as a ceremony exceeding protocol?
At this moment, Qin Heng once again produced the imperial edict written a year ago. Having not attended court for an entire year, he suddenly seated himself upon the imperial throne today. The ministers shouted "Long live" as they usually did, and they also understood what today signified.
A smile curved the corner of Lin Hao's mouth. It seemed that Qianhua's prestige within the Myriad Sword Sect was exceptionally high, completely incomparable to the likes of Yue Shanhao twenty years later.
With these words, a glistening film of tears flashed in the corners of her eyes. Guan Wanwan picked up a silk handkerchief, turned her head slightly, and gently dabbed away her tears. Looking at her gentle movements and frail physique, that trace of faint sorrow in her eyes was enough to evoke a strong desire to protect her.
Upon hearing this, Qin Aobin could not help but be startled, his gaze returning to the small bottle still clutched in Yao Ziyun's hand. That was to say... the heart-protecting pills were long gone, and the medicine she held was fake.
A bone-chilling light intensified on the Black Mysterious Bracelet, and a man was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture, collapsing to the ground with a crisp crack.
"Granny Liang, you must tell His Majesty and Her Ladyship that I miss them dearly here. And don't forget, as soon as you are relieved of your duties, come accompany me!" Zhao Cheng threw himself into Liang Shicheng's arms, weeping tearfully.
The two of you—one a biological mother, the other a biological sister—sitting here in the living room openly discussing how to upgrade Gu Chen's hardware qualities, don't your consciences hurt at all?
The man in the black robe shook his head without saying more, his expression turning markedly solemn. "The two of you go take a look! In that direction, less than twenty kilometers away."
"I am very disappointed in you." Truly, extremely disappointed. Roben smiled at Su, who had turned back, and slowly shook his head to stop Su from speaking further.
Yet now, he suddenly discovered that this person was not only an outer disciple but also the personal disciple of Elder Wei Zifeng. Although being a personal disciple was merely a title, as a direct disciple of an elder, how could he compare to ordinary executive disciples? The treatment he enjoyed was hardly inferior to that of disciplinary disciples.

An Xiaoxiao gave Gu Chen a thoroughly ungraceful and massive eye-roll. If her hands and feet were not currently entangled by Gu Chen, she would have genuinely wanted to kick him straight off the bed to knock some sense into his head.
Besides, Tongrentang's reputation in China was stellar. For an elder to consult patients individually at the Qincheon branch of Tongrentang, his prowess was self-evident. Therefore, upon hearing the old man's words, the already cautious Wei Zi was forced to treat the matter with even greater gravity.
A random survival mission in a world lasting one hundred years... with no mandatory task requirements... and of course, no generous task rewards either.
Listening to the respectful tone of the lobby manager, Bai Qian's heart was filled with doubts, yet she managed to suppress that astonishment.
"What kind of mess is this? You could figure out what's going on even with your toes!" Old Woman Zuo smiled triumphantly. Had she not been shrewd enough to wait by the street, how would she have known that someone like Jiaru could be so audacious as to invite wolves into the house in broad daylight?
That grounded sense of security was just like an airplane finally landing safely after encountering a fatal aviation disaster.
Mu Ling strolled out of the vortex, successfully unlocking the seal with the stellar formation diagram, and emerged alongside the Seven Heavenly Kings.
As for Gao Shiman, she had long since sent someone to notify Shiyan, recounting the entire affair and telling her simply not to go either.
