Chapter 62: What Did You Do to This Prince a Month Ago?

Clad entirely in blood-red attire, the monstrous figure exuded a destructive, pitch-black aura, gazing at the person before him as though looking at a corpse.

"Young master, it has been verified that this fabric, thread, and paper all originate from Imperial Concubine De's chambers. Furthermore, the handwriting on this paper and the embroidery patterns were all crafted by the maidservants in Imperial Concubine De's palace," Hongruo reported to Zihan.

This middle-aged man was by no means of low status; he was Ding Xumao, known as the "Crocodile Venerable," one of the five venerables of the Blood Tyrant Alliance. Kneeling now before the figure in the black robe, he looked like an unforgivable sinner standing before an impartial judge.

"You..." Flushing crimson, Luo Shuiyi hastily scrambled to adjust her collar, which had been pulled open by the fox, covering the magnificent scenery exposed at her chest.

Meng Jue let out a sigh, then gave a rough account of his battle with the gluttonous beast Taotie and the subsequent unbearable, searing heat that had engulfed his entire body.

Amidst the golden radiance of the hook-sword, the previously sorrowful expression on the visage of the Buddha's incarnate dharma slowly curved into a faint smile. With his eyes remaining closed throughout, his hand formed the flower-twirling mudra, which gradually opened into a palm before joining together in prayer, and suddenly dissolved into nothingness.

"Judging by this, he must have been born not long ago—probably about twelve days, which roughly corresponds to twelve years in the mortal realm. From the fluctuations of his spiritual energy just now, immortal essence seemed to outweigh true essence, so he must still be underage," Kelan nodded and said.

Luo Shuiyi looked toward her and handed over the wildly spinning compass in her hand, only to see the needle spinning around like a madman.

Seeing Aomi Yun's actions along with the somewhat exasperated Ao Fenghua outside, Ye Zhengnan found it rather amusing, yet he also felt a trace of envy. He no longer had close relatives who cared for him like this, and upon hearing Aomi Yun's words, he could not help but fall into a pensive silence.

However, a conspiracy and plan had already begun shortly after Dewenna departed from the imperial capital, and their target was precisely Dewenna, who had not yet fully matured.

From Yue Yunfan's perspective, his own strength made it entirely unnecessary to pay attention to the two robust Martial Emperor realm men standing on one side. As for Meier, she would be kept in check by Yuxi. Although Meier did not appear to have expended much energy judging by her condition, Yuxi inherently surpassed her in raw power.

Ye Qiu's formidable strength had penetrated deep into their bones; even if someone incited the three of them to make an enemy of Ye Qiu, they would never do such a thing.

Yang Zhi, ranked fifth among the seven masters of Yuxu, had a sinister gleam in his eyes accompanied by a ruthless expression. Biting his teeth, he spoke in a chilling, frigid tone.

"Of course! Anyway, he's the one paying the bill later!" Li Jiajia said with a mischievous, quiet smile, seemingly thrilled by the success of her little prank.

"Have you heard? Because the Yan family was unsatisfied with the territory they were about to be allocated, Nantian Yijian has personally made an appearance. The Yan family is about to make a major move..." Moments later, such rumors began to circulate.

This was an aged scholar of Western medicine who had dedicated himself to the field for many years and was a renowned professor and expert in the capital.

After discussing the current state of the company with the staff, announcing the time and date of the memorial service, and giving everyone an encouraging pep talk, Xu Wen turned around and took her leave.

Moreover, although the White Lotus Sect was rumored to be "abounding with experts," the Brocade-Clad Guards were naturally no less inferior! As for ordinary cult members, they were even less comparable.

"Let go!" Wang Zitao desperately clamped his grip around Zhang Qian's wrist, causing Zhang Qian a pang of pain that forced him to loosen his hold.

Yet the Sun family misinterpreted the situation, assuming that Xu Lingqian had agreed, and completely glossed over his warning.

"I wonder what Your Majesty wishes this humble minister to say?" Jun Feiyu asked with a completely solemn and puzzled expression.

Having broken through to the realm of the Azure Sea and Cinnabar Heart in his mental state and comprehension, Chen Yu felt that both his understanding of cultivation and his mastery of martial arts had subtly improved quite a bit.

Watching the man's retreating figure, Qiao Chu first wore a look of bewilderment, followed by anger and disappointment, until she finally slumped down in dejection.

The rest of the company felt a deep sense of emotion, raising their cups one after another to toast this prosperous era. Yet Beiming Wu remained immersed in shock, unable to recover her senses for a long time.

Thus, Wan Qi hopped out of the vehicle first and headed straight for the dressing room. But as soon as she stepped inside, she heard the voice of An Shuirong, which definitely should not have been there.

During the first two days after coming home, she would still consciously or unconsciously check the entryway to see if there were any men's shoes replaced, but later on, she simply couldn't be bothered to look.

A trace of anger surged into Brother Xing's eyes. Raising his hand and bringing down his blade, he slashed at the outer side of Yin Yun's thigh. No matter how furious Brother Xing was, he knew the limits of his strength; using the blunt back of the machete, he did not injure Yin Yun, merely inflicting a brief sting of pain.

"I gave her a chance, but she didn't know how to cherish it. Since she is my soldier, I won't haggle over that billion-dollar breakup fee. But failing to listen attentively in class means walking to a pointless death on the battlefield," Quan Shaoqing sneered and said.

From the very beginning, Shi Guiyi integrated the factions built by the Zhao family over the years into his own grasp, and that alone was enough to earn Wang Zhi's appreciation.

If these bugs were to be secretly leaked and circulated underground, there is no telling what catastrophic disasters they might cause.

Upon returning to Pengcheng, Chen Bo never paused his movements, spinning continuously like a top without even a moment to catch his breath. Having settled matters with Zhang Yiming, Chen Bo immediately began reaching out to Tencent's founding team.

Therefore, Guan Jianjun definitely could not afford to take care of these children for at least the next month.

"Who is President Lu? Lu Xiaoyun?" Chen Bo was truly not very familiar with Galaxy's internal operations; after all, he had spent the entire second half of the year abroad, and even when calling Gao Yuanyuan, they rarely talked about work.

The leaders of the local district government, the Administration for Industry and Commerce, and the Futian Public Security Branch—anyone with any real clout—had to make an appearance. Interpersonal relations had always been a tradition in China, and proper etiquette could never be omitted.

"That's true as well. If they are allowed to keep developing, sooner or time they will become renowned figures in their respective fields," Han Chonghua remarked.

During their very first training session, with Jinzi's covert assistance under Liu Chang's guidance, she managed to pluck a chicken hanging at a height of 2.85 meters.

If Rinmaru Yurui could appear here, could an even stronger enemy be appearing on Saeko's side?

"Yifeng, you and the boss conspired for so long—are you trying to use the same trick to make us fall into a trap? Were you plotting with this boss to make money off of us?" Liang Qi sneered sarcastically.

"Hehe! I possess a body of Vajra steel; although your sword has formidable penetration, it simply cannot crack my Vajra physique!" Xu Yuntian looked at Itokawa Shizuka and laughed.

This was precisely why Gu Lingzhi insisted on forging a weapon with her own hands despite knowing she was not particularly skilled at smithing.
