Volume One, Chapter 43: Miss Qin

The little beggar stood rooted to the spot, gazing blankly at the countenance that had just been fleetingly revealed through the carriage window. What peerless beauty and regal majesty it was.

Thinking of what Chen Lengyu had said: "We are all subjects of the Emperor; how can there be any distinction of high and low?"

"This..." Imperial Physician Gong found himself in a difficult position, faint beads of sweat appearing on his forehead, fearing that telling the truth would spark another pointless dispute. Yet if he said nothing... there was simply no way to get past the Empress Dowager.

At that moment, a wisp of autumn breeze blew past, stirring her raven hair that cascaded down to her hips and fluttering the edges of her floating robes. For a moment, everyone present felt a sense of trance, as if watching her figure gradually fade away.

At this time, Li Ningyu was utterly perplexed: what on earth did this hidden adversary in the shadows intend to accomplish?

Just like last time, Mu Manni's driver was the first to step out to inspect the vehicle's condition. However, this time he did not escape the same fate either, being knocked flat to the ground with a single punch by Jiang Chengce, instantly rendering him unconscious.

The novice guide responsible for coaching them yesterday had made it crystal clear: the souls of the slaughter space numbered in the hundreds of millions; adding one more of him didn't make him significant, and losing one didn't leave a void. If his soul were to scatter into the wind right here, absolutely no one would care.

A few more loud crashes echoed out as five inner-gate guards of the Zhou family were sent flying inward, their bodies drenched in blood. Their eyes were glazed and their spirits shattered, clearly at death's door. It was only then that Steward Zhou snapped back to his senses. With a fierce shout, he brandished his broadsword and charged toward the dozen or so Zhao family guards who had broken in.

National capitalists, under normal circumstances, had economic developments largely disconnected from foreign capital. Weaker in capital strength than bureaucratic or comprador capitalists, they could only be classified as a secondary capitalist faction.

Gu Chen swallowed hard in secret, knowing full well that this crimson fruit had grown into such a state entirely due to Mu Xue's excrement and urine.

Yet under the chain reaction of this uprising, insurgent troops emerged across four provinces and continued to multiply. Most of the fallen revolutionary martyrs were elite members of various societies, including civilians who supported the revolution.

Shortly after, the white mist dissipated, taking Hu Dingtang along with it as he vanished from my sight. My mind felt dizzy and muddled, and I couldn't shake the feeling that I had just lived through a dream.

He first made a phone call to Huilinfang to brief them, and then called Di Hao, asking him to provide protection for Liu Xueqing and An'er over the next few days.

With his eyes closed and devoid of internal energy in his body, Madman could only wait for death. At the very split second, a blade blocked the path right in front of Madman's throat.

With her eyes closed, her withered, bony fingers continuously groped and pressed behind my ears, as if sensing something. I bit my lip, waiting anxiously, terrified that she would discover my silver needles.

Yet the red glow dimmed little by little, while the pulsing amplitude of the Gu parasite grew increasingly violent. I could not help gritting my teeth; it seemed that the magical power of the fire lotus was, after all, no match for the seed of the golden silk Gu.

Indeed, in an instant, having absorbed the complete World Tree, he had actually reached the ninth rank of the Dao Sovereign.

Meanwhile, the eagerly anticipated first Longevity Cup Invitational Tournament finally opened its grand curtain.

Shangguan Furong stepped out of her workplace and, seeing Su Ze's car parked right outside the entrance, walked over out of curiosity. Peering through the car window, she discovered that he was indeed inside.

She had originally thought that Li Mo was a righteous hero who came forward to rescue a damsel in distress, but she never expected that Li Mo turned out to be spineless as well.

Chai Jun was stunned for a moment before he realized that this lass had beaten around the bush for so long just to ask him this question. She had stripped away the layers step by step, and he had cooperated every step of the way, until in the end, brushing it off was no longer an option.

Lin Duoduo pushed aside his lips directly to inspect the Zombie King's teeth. A zombie that brushed its teeth indeed had a very healthy oral cavity.

I wore a beaming smile all over my face, wanting to open my mouth and say something further. Suddenly, I noticed the princess before me gracefully raise her delicate right index finger to her lips, making a gesture that told me to shut up.
