36. Eternal Self
Fortunately, the tools had been prepared well in advance. Zhang Cheng took them to retrieve the equipment and brought out the vegetable seeds that had been purchased earlier, telling the elderly couple they could plant whatever they pleased.
Having received gifts every day, Jin Moli began to get angry when, suddenly, two days passed without a single one.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with blonde hair and blue eyes stepped forward; he was the head of the Sanoce family and the current Speaker of the Council. Standing beside him was another man, whose cultivation level was similar to his own, though slightly lower—he was likely the current President of the Council.
In the nick of time, a thunderous sound of war drums erupted. As the city gates swung open, Li Long, fully armored and helmeted, led a large contingent of Shule troops along with Hou Wu, Cheng Huailiang, and others, charging in to strike the Kuche army from the rear.
Then, the two men’s gazes collided in the air, clashing in silence. A subtle scent of gunpowder seemed to linger, as if a conflict were on the verge of breaking out.
Lin Fengyi fled the bar in a frantic, disheveled state, as if someone were chasing him with a blade, and hurried toward his car.
If anyone else had teased Wang Changlong like that, he would have flared up long ago. But this Sun Feng had known him for years; the two often played cards, drank, and sometimes even hit the bathhouses together to talk nonsense, so they were far too familiar with each other to take offense.
In truth, Qin Tianyu was still somewhat reluctant to face Li Xue, mostly out of embarrassment. The timeline must be traced back to a few days prior, on the night Sun Hui left. Just as Qin Tianyu finished his shower and was about to head to bed, he discovered Li Xue walking in from outside, her face flushed red.
"I saw you eating with your head down and thought you were truly hungry from the training," Han Lize said, looking utterly innocent.
Chen Kang was willing to help Shen Gongbao improve his strength and cultivation. Even if Shen Gongbao could not inflict real harm on the immortals of the Chan Sect, it would be enough if he could simply be a thorn in their side.
Chen Kang even stopped teaching classes to the students at the Military Academy, leaving the lectures to Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong.
Sun Jian cooperated with Cao Cao, biting down hard on Lu Bu’s Bingzhou army, pursuing them relentlessly with great initiative.
Chen Mo did not know why the Lion Hero was so agitated, but he instinctively corrected his mistake.
Yan Que sat in the carriage, observing the surrounding environment, the people, and the local customs, before finally fixing his gaze on a line of cargo carts.
Lu Wanning’s attitude was resolute, leaving Qingzhi and Qingdai no choice but to follow her wishes. Qingdai packed away the brightly colored clothes they had previously selected, leaving only the set Lu Wanning had specified hanging up, which still needed to be ironed shortly.
Hyuga Yunchuan would not risk his life to investigate where the central figure of the convoy was resting. It was also unlikely that Danzo would send ninjas to assassinate a Kage... after all, the Raikage of the Cloud Village had been confirmed to be in the party, and there were no Cloud ninjas on the other route.
Ye Xiran’s gaze turned cold. Ignoring everyone else, she entered the private room, grabbed her handbag, and turned to leave.
The next day, Han Ling, accompanied by Han Zhongxu and Uncle Gu, arrived at Ouyang Mu’s office.
Several security guards rushed in, calling the police and an ambulance, then surrounded Guo Shao'an and Ye Xiran.
The T-54 did not focus its attention on Bu Hui, but instead stared ahead at the rocks, leaving the entire side of the tank exposed to him.
There was no helping it; this was the cheapest assault rifle in the Main God Space, an essential piece of equipment for novice reincarnators who were short on points.
Before she could finish her sentence, she felt a sudden warmth on her lips. Her entire mouth was filled with the unique scent of Qiao Muchen.
So that was it. I nodded in sudden realization. In that case, did it mean Zhi-ze no longer had to worry about Yuan Zhixun causing him trouble in the future?
Yao Ziyun sat down casually without pouring tea for Cai Xiangning. Seeing such insolence, Cai Xiangning felt as though she were being completely disregarded.
After the song ended, Ji Yan did not forget to glance at Ye Chen, who nodded back at her. This interaction did not escape Wang Sidi’s notice; she leaned forward, and a moment later, a cry of pain from Ye Chen was heard, followed by a burst of laughter from the stage.
"In that case, we should really blame Empress Dowager Wei," Binu finally felt she had fully grasped the truth and justice of the matter.
"Yiran, I'm sorry, I just want to be alone." Having said that, he left Gu Yiran with a lonely silhouette.
Xiangru pursed her lips, tilted her head to look at Ye Tian, and suddenly chuckled, "I don't know you, but you're quite handsome. However, I already have someone I like. His name is... Tian, hehe." With that, she turned and skipped away.
He Zhan clearly had anticipated this. Without another word, he patted his friend on the shoulder and turned toward the floating bridge, leaving behind a dashing figure.
Song Cheng leaned in, reached out to pull my head into his embrace, and raised a hand to ruffle my hair.
I couldn't help but frown as I listened. The information revealed by his words puzzled me. Did it mean there were others besides Gu Xi and me who had come to this Blin Town? Was it for some unknown purpose, and did it relate to this school or to Blin Town itself?
My only memory of birthdays was pain. I remember that on that birthday, my grandmother boiled a poached egg for me early in the morning and added brown sugar to it.
"If you don't make yourself clear today, don't even think about stepping out of this door!" Ai Mingshan, driven to fury, ignored Ai Daquan’s attempts to stop him and grabbed his cane, raining blows down upon Ai Yonggui.
At this point, Chu He raised his hand and pointed. The stone tablet trembled gently, and inside, countless invisible strands of origin were straightened out. The entire tablet began to radiate a soft light, and the swirling mist rose once more.
Liu Zheng stood in the wind, completely disheveled, opening his mouth several times but unable to find the words to say. Han Zhenhan had left just like that.
"Then take good care of yourself. Fu'er and I will be at home waiting for you." Du Ruo buried her head against his chest.
Actually, I thought the maternity matron seemed quite kind, but my son was my priority, and I didn't have the energy to get involved in such matters, so I let it be.
I picked up the chopsticks nearby and tasted a mouthful of food. I didn't know when the meal had been delivered, but it was already ice-cold.
