Volume One, Chapter 119: Stand Up for the Princess!

At the entrance to the Princess’s Residence.

Cao Qingzhu was dressed in plain white mourning clothes today, making her look delicate and pitiful. There was a hint of coquettish charm about her, along with an unmistakable air of helpless despair, as though she were a woman trapped in a quagmire, compelling anyone who saw her to reach out and pull her free.

When Cao Qingzhu arrived at the gate, she asked the gatekeeper to announce her arrival.

The message was delivered, yet there was no response at all.

Tang Wei seemed able to restrain the incarnation of Yellow Dragon Jade. She merely pointed a finger, appearing to do nothing at all, and yet the result was nothing short of miraculous.

He knew that repeatedly exhausting his primal force in this manner would inevitably have serious consequences for his cultivation. But for the safety of the Holy Church, he was willing to sacrifice even his life. How could he possibly care about such an adverse consequence?

The Fatty thought about it, but could not figure anything out. In the end, he simply sent a chat request to Wild Dance and Wolf Smoke.

“I’ll wait for you.”

Those three simple words struck his heart like a massive boulder plunging into a tranquil lake. From the very center of his chest, ripples spread outward in widening circles.

Lu Jiaze’s clothes parted slightly. He reached toward his waist, then drew a pistol. With a sharp motion, he pointed it at Langbogr.

“That’s right! Half a month ago, several groups of mercenaries discovered traces of the Scarlet God and tracked them all the way to the Great Zhou Empire. But the Scarlet God organization was both ruthless and powerful. In the southernmost part of the Northern Wasteland, they set an ambush and annihilated those mercenary groups, after which they vanished without a trace.”

In the blink of an eye, five years had passed. Their lives had not been easy at all. The more courteous the Reincarnation Clan was, the more terrified they became. Even when they drank a sip of water, they had to check first to make sure it was not poisoned.

Ultimately, the reason her husband, Xuanyuan Jing, disliked her so deeply was largely because of the cruelty her parents had shown in the past.

“Hehe, there is no need for such formalities. You all did a fine job this time. Once you have completed the mission, you may collect your rewards from the Rewards and Punishments Department.” The middle-aged man glanced at all the officers present and smiled faintly. At last, he turned his gaze toward the officers responsible for handling the matter of Yun Feng’s group going out to sea.

As their eyes met, Weila’s face suddenly flushed crimson, and she struggled to rise. Ke Ya merely smiled and tightened his arm around her slender waist, refusing to let go.

At the time, when Old Fox heard Empress Su speak so highly of Chen Jing, he had not dared voice the slightest objection, yet deep down he had remained somewhat unconvinced. Only now, after Ba Mian encountered such a devoted believer of Chen Jing, did he truly understand how powerful that divine might was—the overwhelming majesty that could penetrate straight into one’s soul with nothing more than a single glance.

“I will give you my full support. Whatever you need, just tell me,” Duan Qiu said indifferently.

Fortunately, after making several inquiries, Zheng Ji and Li Weiping found a fairly priced restaurant with a private room large enough to accommodate two tables for twenty people.

“I told you, the city lord isn’t here. You only need to hand the letter to me. When the city lord comes back, I’ll give it to him!” The burly man clearly had a violent temper and seemed furious that Gao Hao had ignored his instructions.

Chun Yu wanted to forcibly summon the giant shadow, but she could no longer condense that chaotic power. Yet now, as the giant shadow on the ground dissipated and lost its vitality, the body of the steel giant shadow was finally torn in two by the black giant shadow behind it.

After killing countless people, the cultivators surrounding Ye Feng finally grew frightened and began to retreat.

At this point, there was no time to concern herself with the fleeing demon. Sha Lin Ming used holy light magic to protect Duan Qiu, who was still in the middle of the battlefield.

Patricia and Roland were both elves, so they naturally knew the effects of the Water of Life. Moreover, both belonged to prominent elven houses and possessed a certain amount of it.

“Sister, today is your wedding day, so let’s not discuss this now. When we have time another day, we can talk it over slowly.” With that, Su Zimo stepped back two paces, her fingers continuing to pluck the strings. Once again, the accompaniment began to play.
