Chapter 133: Trifles
"Are you sure you aren't misremembering? Those two were really called Ren Woxing and Zhu Yuanzhang?"
After a long while, Zhu Yu finally steadied himself from the wretched sensation of choking on water, then earnestly asked Wang Yuyan to confirm the veracity of the news.
As for Wang Yuyan, you could say her other skills were lacking, and she might accept that, but if you dared to suggest her memory was poor, she would never stand for it.
"I have possessed a photographic memory since I was a child. If you don't believe me, send someone to ask my cousin yourself."
She felt that Jin Xi was acting just like an adult. The days passed by peacefully, one after another. Meanwhile, in Southern Yue, Su Ying lived every day in a state of fury.
Hou San lived in a shantytown on the outskirts of the city. He had a younger sister, and he also cared for two orphans who were neither kin nor acquaintance.
"What is this? To think it could have such an effect..." I have personally experienced resentment energy; not only is it persistent, but its lethality is also exceptionally powerful. I never expected it to be cleared away so easily.
"Then the three of you have passed the preliminary round. Come here at ten tomorrow morning for the secondary round. As for the content of tomorrow's test, I will announce it on the spot. I’ll be going now. Bye-bye, Brother Xiaofeng..." After the loli club president finished speaking, she walked back to the original arena.
Fan Ping'an sneered, unleashing the Blazing Sun Finger technique. It collided incessantly in mid-air with the tiger's claws. These claws were the hardest part of the beast's body; even the high-temperature Blazing Sun Finger could not break through them.
What! Liu Zhenguo was astonished! What was going on? Wasn't it said that Su Ying was not in the palace? This... how could this be! The ministers who did not understand the situation began to whisper among themselves, speculating why Su Ying had suddenly appeared at court. Could it be that he had learned of their rebellion?
She felt as if she had caught a glimpse of something; one conspiracy after another descended upon her, making her appear solitary, helpless, and terrified within the vast, empty hall.
"Crack!" The sound echoed repeatedly as earth-yellow energy enveloped his entire body like a suit of armor.
"The King has a straightforward nature and naturally disdains such actions. Furthermore, Gu'er is still in their hands. Zhao Yuanting is a man of deep schemes and will certainly not submit. We cannot truly kill Zhao Yuanting, for if he dies, Gu'er will lose her life as well." Speaking of these entanglements, Hu'erhe's expression grew solemn.
Shi Jia bit her lip, her clenched palms damp with sweat. The panic in her heart made her reflexively turn her head away.
Perhaps he hadn't just come to deliver a cake to Shi Jia, but might even have intended to celebrate her birthday. Yet, even thinking of this possibility made Qi Qi shudder uncontrollably. Jiang Rui, a delinquent like him, acting completely out of character to be kind to Shi Jia, truly frightened her.
The rebels were jolted awake by this shout, looking around blindly. Sure enough, the emblems on the faces of every rebel within sight had vanished. Cries of shock erupted, echoing endlessly.
As the Fire Qilin beast charged toward them with rolling heatwaves, reaching a distance of one hundred meters, countless rays of different colored light illuminated the four directions simultaneously. Several light barriers appeared out of thin air, trapping all the Fire Qilin beasts within them.
"Xijiu, what's wrong? Where do you feel unwell? Songyan... what on earth did you do to Xijiu? Why has he suddenly become like this?" Hua Ya’s brows were knitted together in worry; she was deeply concerned for Xijiu.
"What? There will be no more Prefecture Wars in the future? The Cold Emperor? Which Cold Emperor?" Everyone was bewildered. The Prefecture War, which had been held for thousands of years and had claimed nearly a hundred million lives, was to be abolished completely? Didn't the continent have only one God Sovereign? When did a "Cold Emperor" emerge?
Phoenix wore a sneering expression. Having long held a high position commanding Yanhuang, she had been the leader of the entire Earth Federation before arriving in the Immortal Martial Realm.
Mira nodded. "I understand." Understanding did not mean believing, nor did it mean accepting. The days ahead were long, and there would be plenty of time and opportunity to prove it.
