Volume 1, Chapter 62: Empress, Just How Poor Are You?!

Before Nan Yu could say that she had already severed ties with the Pei family, Tang Huaijin's call came through.

"Young master, I have my own," Yan Xu said, his emotions somewhat unstable, the usual respect missing from his tone.

Therefore, once a person becomes a martial artist and greatly enhances their control over their own body, many things that ordinary people need to learn are naturally grasped by martial artists. It is simply no challenge for them.

The scorching sun overhead was easily over thirty degrees Celsius, yet despite this, the entire construction site remained a scene of fiery, bustling activity.

Eventually, realizing that reasoning with her was futile, Qian Zhishan couldn't be bothered to say more. She would learn once she suffered a loss, and besides, her current state was so embarrassing that being associated with her felt shameful. Truly, she was quite unlikable.

"Listen to this, I heard Qian Shuishui is very aloof and already has a boyfriend. You have no hope," said the person, who didn't quite believe that Chi Ji didn't like Qian Shuishui, given that he went to squat outside her classroom every day. Of course he liked her! Besides, judging by his current tangled expression, could it be that he had just been rejected?

Jiang Guangguang strolled along leisurely in the back, occasionally kicking the pebbles on the roadside. When she reached her front door and saw Cheng Rongjian leaning against his car, she paused in surprise.

Yi Jin's mind went blank for a split second, and the electrical current within his body uncontrollably surged toward a certain spot.

Once again, the hall fell into absolute silence, followed by the leaders of various clans reacting as if they had lost their minds. They stepped forward to inspect the silk blueprints and bamboo slip manuals, their eyes glowing with shock and wonder.

Furthermore, their family resided in Jinling, and her relatives had already relocated there as well, so they had no fear of any retaliation from the Grand View Hotel.

The White Wolf's attack struck true. The Black Wolf seemed somewhat dazed, its mind completely shrouded in chaos, taking the White Wolf's fireball squarely. The blazing flames consumed its twisted black fur, instantly blasting it flying dozens of meters away.

On the battlefield, Ning Qing was seen charging ahead into the vanguard of the Shui clan's formation, his heavy cavalry spear spinning into sparkling silver blossoms as he unseated several enemies in succession. Behind him, the cavalry battalion of the Nanning army swarmed forward like a sharp dagger plunging deeply into the midst of the Shui clan's horsemen.

Rather than saying he triumphed over the other competitors to ascend the throne of the head of the house, it was more accurate to say that the clan elders chose him after deliberation and bestowed the position upon him.

At that moment, Lin Han let out a furious roar, followed by a fierce slash with his saber directed at Yu Liuming's flank. The blow was immensely powerful and carried the absolute momentum of a sure kill. Yet Yu Liuming appeared entirely prepared, a flicker of peculiar light crossing his gaze while his expression remained completely relaxed.

After all, whether attacking or defending, Luo Ting utilized basic soul-fusion. While it did not consume physical stamina or spiritual power, it did expend a certain amount of mental energy, meaning it would induce a sense of mental fatigue in Luo Ting.

"I went to confirm this later. There was indeed the scent of goblins on that trail, and they came from the north before heading back north," the Black Wolf replied without hesitation.

Qin Qiong lowered his head to look at the unconscious Xiuer. After a moment of thought, he fetched a bowl of water from the inner hall and held a mouthful of it.

After all, for a feudal state to achieve rapid development, relying solely on itself was far too unrealistic. It had to engage in ruthless resource plundering in order to grow stronger like a game of greedy snake.

Immediately thereafter, across the sky, stretching from a single point to a line, and then to a surface woven from countless lines, the sword Qi descended like an all-encompassing celestial phenomenon, leaving nowhere to hide.

Until this very moment, not a single person from the Shao tribe could have imagined that Bai Xinglai would bring such weapons and armor for trade.

"Granted!" Xuan Tianfei was not afraid of Chen Che escaping; with troops tightly surrounding the hunting grounds both inside and out, Chen Che had no such opportunity.

Accompanied by a deafening roar and a sudden burst of flames, everything exploded at once. He slammed heavily onto the ground, unable to hear a thing, while his original location was already reduced to ruins.

In Paradise Apartments, the floor area of each apartment was indeed not large, but fortunately, with few rooms, there was no sense of confinement. The interior was decorated in a rather old-fashioned style, with solid wood furniture, snowy white walls, large floor tiles, a refrigerator in the living room, and a shower in the bathroom. Overall, it was quite good, and Yingrou was quite satisfied.

Yet only they knew that in private, Lou Kui had a formidable temper and was extremely difficult to serve, presenting two entirely different faces from his public persona.

Su Jiaohan went upstairs. Nan Sheng had already begun preparations, and the photographer was briefing her on the precautions for the shoot and the style she needed to portray.

Chen Che, his eyes bloodshot with rage, was about to seek out Guo Feng for a fight to the death when Zeng Tong intercepted his short sword with a sweep of his blade. Remembering his military orders, Chen Che grudgingly sounded the whistle for retreat.

Seeing the gloomy and unbearable expression on Lin Minsen's face, Xia Wan knew how hard he had been working. She could only cup his face and place a kiss on it as a form of comfort.

After thoroughly refining the marvelous fruit, the vital source energy within Zhang Yu Chengduo's body increased by an additional third on top of the foundation of advancing to a peak seasoned warrior. Moreover, the strength of Zhang Yu Chengduo's soul and willpower could now project nine thousand five hundred meters outside his body.

"Ancestor, I have the very same intention. Setting aside a full set, passing on half of the Wisdom Skill to you is no problem at all, provided you follow the method I teach and guide me into the mountain marrow," the ancestor said calmly, as if he had already made up his mind.

Furthermore, with other peers, seeing two handsome guys together was pleasing to the viewers' eyes, but with this pair, everyone looked on feeling as if they might vomit yesterday's dinner.

At that moment, Aemetis saw three dark arrows flying toward him again. Unflustered, even if dark arrows were fired by a senior archmage, so what? Aemetis deflected all three arrows with a single stroke of his sword, merely taking a forced step back.

"I'll take it! Name your stakes, but don't bet money—I'm not as rich as you!" Zhao Qiang immediately issued a precautionary warning.

Liu Badao drew the Dragon Divine Sword, and the eight demonic beasts sensed the fiery dragon's blade, causing the fire tiger to let out a roar that echoed the dragon's chant of the Fiery Dragon Divine Sword.

Rao Guoliang had no choice but to call off the attack and checked the time; it was about time to retreat anyway. Since only a single reserve torpedo remained, he might as well try his luck at the outer anchorage or lay in wait right at the harbor. Otherwise, once the minelaying submarines began operating, even he would be trapped within the naval port.

Shielded by the title of teacher, Shaoyao received no less respect in the Yi residence than concubines like Fangcui.

"Hey! How can you taste the true wonder of it by drinking like this? You've been missing for so many days, where on earth have you been?" Ignoring Han Jun's question, Zhu Peijiang asked with a smile, while Yang Yihe smiled in silence.
