Volume 1, Chapter 27: Is This an Attempt at a Scam?

It had been many days since she had a proper wash, and the water temperature was absolutely perfect.

Because there were few trees beneath the steep cliff, Chen Feng and Haoxue did not continue their pursuit, fearing they might reveal their presence, and had to lie behind a pile of rubble to wait for an opportunity. The faint moonlight spilled down, and the surrounding area was utterly silent, making the blood-red building appear all the more eerie.

The remaining five mystics continued to drive up the price of the Moon-Chasing Sword, gradually increasing it from five hundred medium-grade mystic stones to seven hundred. At this point, three more mystics withdrew. The Moon-Chasing Sword became a contest between the final two.

His eyes were bloodshot; he swung his blade with firm resolve, neatly piercing his own heart, and his vision gradually blurred.

Yu Yinyin peeked out from behind Ashui, only to see what appeared to be countless ghosts wielding blades, swords, staffs, spears, and forks rushing toward them. She could not help but take a step back, her body trembling slightly.

Moreover, there was no way to treat or recuperate in this realm; only by returning to the Sacred Realm and back to the family would there be a chance for a full recovery.

Although more than thirty years had passed since that event, Wuyan’s voice still trembled as she spoke of it now, as if tears were about to spill at any moment.

Ling Zhou-tian did not concern himself with why the system had become so talkative, instead focusing on recalling experiences from his mind.

"Jade Emperor, the recent change in the throne of the Mo Kingdom has incited too much slaughter, with many demons interfering as well. I wish to volunteer to descend to the mortal realm and eradicate them." Su Yusheng rose and bowed slightly.

However, his actions were still a step too slow. Lu Jin frowned slightly upon hearing what Yuan Tao had just said.

The sound of a max-level cannon echoed nearby. Xunfang was also using her phone to play a fishing game, her serious expression suggesting she was taking revenge.

The two left the hotel, went out for breakfast, and then headed straight for the luxury goods street.

Do not be fooled by the fact that she practiced medicine and dispensed herbs in her past life with precise measurements; alchemy is different from anything else. A slight variation in the scale could lead to a massive difference, so it had to be precise to the absolute limit.

"Very well." Dongling Rui signaled for Princess Jing to wait quietly outside, and he followed An Xueling inside.

"No need, I am the one who should be apologizing. Thank you for your support of my work." Wanwan replied with a smile.

Furthermore, they had suffered heavy losses in this salvage incident, with cruisers, destroyers, carrier-based aircraft, helicopters, and nuclear submarines all sustaining varying degrees of damage, not to mention the significant loss of personnel. That was precisely why they had conceded and sent envoys to negotiate terms.

Primary-level medicinal pills are the simplest; just like cultivation, they are entry-level. Generally, a single pill only requires ten to twenty types of herbs, and at most no more than thirty. It is quite similar to a modern traditional Chinese medicine prescription, making the ingredients relatively easy to gather.

"Exactly! He has locked himself away, refusing to eat or drink, just brooding in there. He won't even let us in—it’s worrying me to death!" Huoer said.

Huang Hao naturally knew that Liu Shan could not bear to part with the silver chamber pot. Huang Hao was the Emperor’s confidant, not the confidant of the attendant Dong Yun, so he naturally had to think solely for the Emperor’s benefit rather than obeying the rigid and overly preachy attendant Dong in everything.

"That is why I said you haven't changed one bit. It really reminds me of those old days." Charles said, sounding somewhat pleased.

Thunderous power condensed frantically, and the purple light of the Power Stone flared brilliantly. At the same time, a green radiance enveloped the strike.

Su Nan wanted to stop her father, but not to kill him. She hoped she could become the leader of the faction opposing him.

Since they had come down to Guangdong, how could they not go to Guangzhou for morning tea? Wouldn't a trip to Guangdong be in vain without having morning tea?

The hunters of the Long River Tribe had long noticed the eagle-horse beast circling in the sky. Seeing Bai Fumei jump off, they immediately ran over, intending to protect her.

Old Green-Skin wandered about with a solid-state flashlight, shining it here and there, with a group of jungle fairies following him in curiosity.

This behavior even spread to Wang Zhongwang, Shang Qianqiu, and Li Chuyang, and now even Gu Baobao had joined this learning camp.

Before entering the palace, the blade at her waist had been removed; otherwise, she would have appeared even more valiant and heroic, and even as a mother, her imposing air remained undiminished.

"Tsk, what on earth is going on? Can someone tell me?" Lin Tianlun clicked his tongue and said.

Hearing this, everyone felt that if one were to follow Long Baozhu’s conjecture, this could truly be described as a grand fantasy drama.

Tang Minzhi was indeed quite wealthy, and others dreamed of fleecing him. However, since he had delivered himself to their doorstep, whether or not to fleece him depended on Fourth Master's mood.

Yet, after all these years, they still lived here. The furniture and such had hardly changed, and they had not added anything new. For the mayor of the dignified Yan-Hui City, this was somewhat shabby.

Susan had inquired and found that the land was a real estate investment by the Fu family. Susan gave Gu Nian a call and successfully secured it at an internal discount of sixty percent.

"Shu'er!" Seeing the person who had arrived, Ye Qingyu hurriedly rose and walked to her side. Seeing her clothes in disarray, her hair unkempt, and her body covered in blood, his eyes could not help but fill with a dark storm.

When the two emerged from the bank, it was already half an hour later. Because the currency exchange method for the goods was a bit complicated, it had taken a long time.

As she spoke, Yun Shu's gaze drifted toward the distance. Looking at the slightly sorrowful expression on her face, Yun Yao felt that she was not feigning it.

More importantly, it also depended on whether Le Zao herself was willing. If she wanted to stay in Fenglin City, he did not believe Xuan Shang could simply kidnap her against her will.

"The Yunjian Continent is divided into the Southern Land and the Northern Land, separated by a steep and perilous forbidden zone called the 'Stigmata Canyon.' The two lands are very far apart, and the cultivation forces on either side do not interfere with or interact with each other. Senior, your current location is the frontier of the Yunjian Northern Land." Lu Chengfeng explained respectfully.

"Goodbye!" Tang Yeshuang flopped onto the bed, slightly regretting the question she had just asked.

"Pah, six hundred taels to buy a Profound Ascension Pill? Poor wretch! I bid eight hundred taels!" another mocking voice chimed in.
