Chapter 26: The Flesh Bait

Well, that interruption completely derailed Sanzi’s train of thought.

He first went next door to pick up a carrying pole loaded with soy milk. Signaling Zhao Zhao to follow, he returned to the kitchen courtyard and settled her into the storage room where he usually loafed about. Taking Zhao Zhao’s two water skins, Sanzi shouldered the soy milk and headed off to deliver it.

While the master was busy, Sanzi ladled a small pot of soy milk and set it to simmer over the blazing red clay stove. He then found an excuse to send away the two maidservants working at the main hearth and took some dried lotus leaves to cover it.

The two arrived at the side hall and took their seats; before long, a maidservant arrived with fragrant tea. Ning Feng watched Zhan Long, who was sipping his tea with leisure, and opened his mouth to speak but hesitated, a trace of anxiety visible in his eyes. Zhan Long, finding this strange, inquired with his gaze. Just as Ning Feng wavered, the figure of Ning Zhenhai appeared outside the door.

"It’s fine. Now that we are family, there is no need to dwell on the past," Yu Yun said with a smile, inviting her to sit down.

Deng Yanlin laughed heartily; with these infants out of danger, Renhe Hospital was naturally safe, and the heavy stone in his heart was finally lifted.

After taking his oath, Li Jing immediately departed from the sinkhole that served as the grave for the divine dragon’s remains. He released his spacecraft and entered the coordinates of this planet into the star map, making it much easier to return in the future.

Blood splattered everywhere. Eight formidable artificial warriors were taken down by Ghost Disciple as easily as if he were slicing vegetables.

Perhaps the rare treasures sensed by the Snow Velvet Mink were related to this mist; the treasure itself might be the source of the fog.

Listening to my words, Lin’er lay obediently on the bed, staring unblinkingly at the chicken soup I had scooped up with a spoon.

Guarding against her was indeed difficult, but fortunately, everyone already knew her identity. At the very least, everyone in the Yin family would be on alert and would not be caught off guard by her schemes.

However, the requirements were extremely strict. Beyond the need for one’s Sword Soul to reach the sixth tier, there were other conditions, though I will not list them all now.

The second item the Divine Son left for Jiang Ling was a branch. This twig also left Jiang Ling deeply shaken, for it was a branch from the Primordial Tree.

But upon learning that the Divine Court existed here, Jiang Ling had to rethink his plans. If he went too far and attracted the attention of the Divine Court, the consequences could be imagined.

Yet, at the most critical moment, Ying Xueqing displayed her immense power. Using the secret, peerless technique of the Heavenly Sword Peak, the "Void Drift Sword Art," she soundly defeated her opponents and successfully rescued the four of them.

As he spoke, he opened a jar filled with honey. The brown bear nearby heard the sound and immediately poked its head out, but at a single glance from Qi Yu, the creature immediately assumed a posture of staring intently at the sky.

"So that’s how it is," Sobel said. If she had been the first to discover this Magic Radiance Beast, it likely would have perished under her merciless ice arrows. But judging by its elegant demeanor now, its value was far beyond fifty thousand Scarlet Radiance Coins.

"That is too heaven-defying." Jiang Ling put away his previous contempt; all that remained was shock.

The second sound was that of a sharp blade parting flesh. Amidst the howling wind, the sound could not be heard clearly; it could only be perceived through the pain it brought.

But looking back today, Lou Yunxi reflected on her actions, the innocent lives lost in Red Maple City, Senior Zhang Xuanyi, and the many other poor souls who perished in the war.

Seeing that everyone had fallen silent, Huo Yaoyang cleared his throat and connected the call.

Before Jiarong could make a decision, the Winged Rabbit had already snatched both fruits, tossed one to Jiarong, and hugged the other as it began to gnaw away.

After explaining their relationship, Jiang Hua began to recount the history of the Jiang family. In ancient times, ancestors were held in the highest regard; since they had forgotten, how could Jiang Hua not retell the history of the Jiang clan?

Chen Pingru watched their bewildered expressions and the dazed look on Number Thirteen, who had been tossed to the ground, and laughed until her back teeth were exposed.

After eating, he felt his strength returning. Unfortunately, his witch staff had been lost in the sea, and he was busy wondering what he could find to use as a weapon.
