The elders all looked at Heavenly Saint Xuanyuan. The third elder said, "Patriarch, Yun Shimo is indeed a scourge. If we kept delaying it, he might gradually spread his wings and grow stronger. How about we set off tomorrow?"
Everyone was afraid that a long delay would mean more trouble. The sooner they dealt with it, the better.
Heavenly Saint Xuanyuan nodded. "The third elder is correct. We cannot delay this. It's deal, then. Let's set off tomorrow. You guys go pack your things. Remember to pack more resources and medicine pellets."
All the people responded in unison and then went on their ways. Heavenly Saint Xuanyuan sat there for a long time.
Xuanyuan Quan sighed. "We should not tell Chu Yang about this. He is young and impulsive. I am afraid that he will insist on going there with us. Accidents will happen if we are not careful enough."
Heavenly Saint Xuanyuan nodded in agreement. "Sure, Quan, you go back an
[Thanksgiving Special Updates][In the folllowing 3 days, we will update 2 chapters each day on this novel,thank you for your continued suppport for TapRead!]Princess Mingzhu was waiting for Hua Mengshi to finish her sentence, but then she felt the sudden and unexpected pain. She looked at Hua Mengshi, fully shocked. She could not believe it! Princess Mingzhu felt a dagger deep in her back. Even when she immediately used her anima energy to stop the bleeding and heal the wound, it was impossible to stop the bleeding because the wound was too deep. "Why... Why did you want to kill me?" Princess Mingzhu asked in a weak voice, looking at Hua Mengshi innocently and confusedly. Hua Mengshi's smile was cold. She lifted Princess Mingzhu's chin with her long and delicate fingers. "Oh, honey, because you are useless now... I don't need you. Just me and Lan Luo can kill Yun Shimo!" Princess Mingzhu shook her head. "No
Yun Shimo and the rest stared at one another. Their faces were calm since they had long guessed something would be brewing during this evening banquet. Otherwise, a conceited Crown Prince would not invite citizens of the Changjing Kingdom to the palace. After all, the relationship between the Yuewu Kingdom and the Changjing Kingdom was not that good. "Please explain, Your Majesty!" Yun Shimo said quietly. He sipped a mouthful of scented tea. Wafts of its scent still lingered in his breath. "Evil practitioners have arisen in our Yuewu Kingdom. They are overbearing, especially those from the Dark Sect and the Blood Sect. They're absolutely lawless. And our kingdom... even I feel guilty over this. I've failed to rule my kingdom well and recruit virtuous people. I can't do anything against those unruly heretical sects, even though I would like to." A haggard look appeared on the Emperor's face and his eyes looked guilty. The Crown
"Hare, you still dare to talk? Humph, I've never seen you act when we encounter danger! You're just a worthless pet—utterly useless!" Ji Jing snorted coldly, her eyes full of scorn. The hare was quite embarrassed by her talk and harrumphed a few times. "What? I was just giving you guys the opportunity to practice. Do you think it's so simple to become an experienced Qi Artist?" Ji Jing glanced at it and was too lazy to argue. Hua Qiyue read the information little by little. By midnight when she was overcome by drowsiness, Tianci was already on the bed, snoring noisily. "Alright. Let's come again here tomorrow and continue reading. It's getting late." Yun Shimo saw the tired look on Hua Qiyue's face and started to smile lightly. Everyone put the records in place and dispersed into their rooms. Yun Shimo sat by the table, glancing gently at Hua Qiyue. "You accepted the Crown Prince's invitation because
Hua Qiyue frowned. She was only an ordinary friend of Bai Qianxue, although Bai Qianxue had faithfully supported her, standing by her side. This had caused misunderstanding among countless people. This woman was no more than an admirer of Bai Qianxue. She was looking for trouble in Hua Qiyue. "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen Princess Chulan from the Yuewu Kingdom?" Another maidservant yelled out arrogantly. Hua Qiyue raised her brows. This Princess Chulan was no more than an eminent guest of the Crown Prince. Even the Emperor had to give in to her at times. But she was too bold, wasn't she? Provoking her on the streets? Seven or eight maidservants immediately surrounded Hua Qiyue, Tianci, and Bai Qianxue. "Princess Chulan, you're mistaken. I am only an ordinary friend of City Master Bai. But... would you like such a wilful and ignorant girl, City Master Bai?" Hua Qiyue smilingly gazed at Ba
Hua Qiyue heard her. She turned around instantly and dashed out. She saw at the bottom of the stairs a man in teal robe climbing up. The man raised his head. His familiar face made Hua Qiyue and Ji Jing cried out in astonishment. Ji Jing had wanted to go out for a walk. The moment she came to the corridor, she saw a man climbing the stairs, greatly resembling Xuanji. She did not expect it to be really him! It had been almost a year. He had finally returned. Xuanji smiled and nodded. "Qiyue, I'm back." They had not seen each other for almost a year. Xuanji had lost much weight. His somewhat fleshy face had become long and thin. But it could not disguise his handsome features. Hua Qiyue was at a loss for words. She was extremely agitated. Ji Feng and Bai Qianxue also came out following his voice. Both of them were smiling. "Haha, Brother Xuan, you're finally back! We've waited a long time for you!" Bai
Bai Qianxue glanced at Ji Jing curiously but did not reject her proposal. "Very well then, let's try the food there." Bai Qianxue did not know why. Suddenly, he did not wish to go back and face Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo. He was late to the party. Yun Shimo and Xuanji were there before him. Hua Qiyue had liked Yun Shimo. He would only feel upset appearing before her again. The two of them came to Xueyue Restaurant on the opposite side and sat down. The waiter brought them the menu. "Sir and madam... oh, isn't this City Master Bai? Ho ho, thank you for your patronage. I'll give you a treat today!" Bai Qianxue was no mere character. Everyone could pick him out with his silver hair, regardless of where he went. "You're too polite, waiter. No matter who I am, I don't have the right to make you spend. Thank you for your offer," Bai Qianxue said with a smile. He ordered a few dishes recommended by the waiter.
Hua Qiyue furrowed her lovely brows slightly. She said helplessly, "Very well, do what you will!" The moment he heard Hua Qiyue agree, Yun Shimo's heart was completely set at ease. As long as Hua Qiyue agreed, the matter could be easily resolved. Yun Shimo was overjoyed and kissed her delicate brows. "Qiyue, go and rest at once. I'll first find men to prepare for our grand wedding on the eighth!" With that, his figure flashed. With a whizz, he had disappeared. Hua Qiyue stared on stupidly. This man was too quick, wasn't he? She stretched out her hand and touched her brows and lips. That smoldering kiss was still there. The tender feeling brightened Hua Qiyue's mood too. She leaped nimbly back into the room, preparing to leave for her room, soak in the bath and then rest. This scene had naturally been witnessed by Xuanji, to the left of her window. He stared dazed at the half-shut window
That man was the First Palace Leader, Luo Sha. The others stared at one another, obviously voicing no dissent. Only the Second Palace Leader snorted. "It's just a few small fries. Why affect all the Palace Leaders? Hey... Hua Mengshi isn't here? Where has she gone?" Lan Luo gave a light laugh. "Of course she has her own matters. Everyone ought to do what they should do. But you can't be too careless. Hua Qiyue isn't someone easy to deal with." "Haha, I heard that you've been subdued by Hua Qiyue? Tsk, tsk. How can the 10th Palace Leader of our Dark Sect be so weak? By rights, you should be more powerful than the Fifth Palace Leader. But why you still lose to Hua Qiyue? Aren't you a bit too useless?" The Third Palace Leader sneered very impolitely. Lan Luo raised his brows. "I was indeed defeated by Hua Qiyue. But it's no insult. If you think I'm poor, I'll let you guys fight first. You can probe her prowess first
