49 True and False

Li Honghui smiled as he saw his older brother out, feeling somewhat melancholy upon his return. When he joined the Shadow Guards back then, he had sworn a solemn oath: to live this life without fame or fortune, without a wife or children, to serve his master with absolute loyalty, and never to harbor a second heart.

Xue Xue's expression remained unchanged as she calmly said, "Naturally, this palace has no doubts. Since the Princess Regent has made this proposal, we might as well give it a try. What do you say, Your Majesty?" Her voice was cold and clear, crisp like the babbling of a spiritual spring, which prompted Yin Yueying to cast a scrutinous gaze at her.

The Military Governor's Mansion was in absolute disarray. Servants and guards began cleaning up, while the masters all sat on the sofas that had been temporarily tidied up.

Looking down from his horse, Tang Wannian could not help but frown: General Liu was covered in dust, most noticeably his bright red, bulbous nose right in the center of his face, beneath which hung two crystal-clear strands of snot.

Lin Xi's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed a little. She put down the fruit I had given her, keeping only a single citrus, and then began peeling it with a fruit knife.

Having received the news that Himimiko intended to have him killed, Himikakō sent Zhuge Liang twenty thousand able-bodied young men in exchange for ten thousand sets of Han army equipment. Armed with these, the soldiers of the Dogu Kingdom launched a fierce assault on Yamatai.

Even during the three days he was unconscious, Brother Jing's mind was entirely occupied with He Lang's safety. Now seeing that the other was safe and sound, a trace of tenderness clearly emerged in his gaze.

The war had ended, and Ergouzi shed all his fatigue, even changing his address to "Elder Brother" rather than "Commanding Lord."

Knowing that these men came from prominent local clans, Qu Fei had placed them in high positions solely to win them over. In terms of ability, they were inferior even to the dispatched Furuo tribesmen. Gazing at the two gray-bearded Left and Right Chancellors, he sighed and went to the back to rest.

The Sword Enthusiast gave a cold smile. His target was not the Sea Demon God at all, but that peak Sea Demon Emperor who was still stunned in place. His sword edge carried a frigid aura, and a sword qi, even stronger than the previous one, flashed forth and accurately struck the top of the Sea Demon Emperor's head.

Legend has it that among the blood slaves nurtured by the vampire clan, a blood patriarch is born every three hundred years. When blood patriarchs mate, they perpetuate the human characteristics of the blood patriarchs, possessing the appearance of mortals, and the leader of the vampire clan will only ever emerge from among the blood patriarchs.

Thinking of the mission of the Ice and Snow Vortex, Shao Han smiled as he walked close to Ruoshui's side and gently embraced her waist.

"Then this crown prince will thank Second Brother." Mu Shaogong exchanged a glance with Ji Zili, a cold sneer hidden in his heart, yet he simply drank the cup of wine.

Seeming to respond to Alleria's words, over ninety thousand werewolves directly ignored the dense army of skeletons behind them. Each mounted on the back of a giant wolf, they raised their sabers high in the air and bowed their noble waists deeply toward the fifteen suddenly appeared thousand-man skeleton phalanxes.

The Demonic Yaksha, one of the supreme powers of the Demonic Path, possessed a body as hard as dark iron that ordinary magic treasures could not harm in the least. Moreover, possessing boundless strength, it could single-handedly resist Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Not good! Everyone, take action and refine him first!" shouted a cultivator of the Sleep Demon Clan. With a single hand, he urged a bronze mirror forward, releasing a burst of seven-colored sacred light that enveloped Wang Xinhuai.

He could sense that the Prince's feelings for Yi were unusual, and had even thought that he could accept her even if she had a child.

Qian Yue allowed her to pull him, yet he could not take a single step forward. The emotions in the depths of his eyes flickered and changed rapidly before finally settling into calmness. If only she had said this a little earlier; if so, perhaps they really could have ignored everything else and stayed by her side for a lifetime, and that would have been enough.

Wang Xinhuai frowned. Ximen Yue had once said similar words. This was the tragedy of descendants of aristocratic families, who must sacrifice everything they had for the clan, regardless of whether they were willing or not.

That evening, Chu Yan had dinner with Fan Xianghan and Wang Lan. Su Yinuo had already left the "Omni-Carving Workshop," but she still worked here part-time and would come whenever there was work. However, she had gone to Europe for further studies during this period, so Su Yinuo's figure was missing from the evening gathering.

Therefore, sharing one's secrets with such a good person did not feel inappropriate at all.

Chu Yan did not intend to lecture Saul and Daphne on wilderness survival knowledge. Although they had not experienced it firsthand, they were certainly well-versed in it and had a clear, fundamental understanding of the essential points of survival.

Ye Zilin sat quietly in the living room. Seeing the family of three enter, she didない show any expression, merely casting a faint glance at Leng Yan.

Kaikai did not say a word, only leaning into Jiang Ruoxi's embrace. Jiang Ruoxi gently patted her son's back, coaxing him, but he refused to close his eyes and sleep again.

In her anxiety, Su Xiyi quietly got out of bed and then went over to poke Deng Meiji, who was still fast asleep.

"Leng Yan, what on earth is going on with Ruoxi? How could she have fallen into the lake out of nowhere, and the child in her belly is gone?" Lin Zhanpeng's face was stern, lacking his usual gentleness. He was clearly blaming Leng Yan.

Lu Yuexie saw that trace of sorrow and helplessness in his grandfather's eyes, and saw him incessantly shaking the unconscious Big Man Wang: "Uncle, Uncle, no, no, Yuexie still wants to take you to enjoy a good life, Uncle..." But no matter how Lu Yuexie called out, Big Man Wang remained unconscious.

Zhou Ziyan had not seen Jiang Xueyan for a long time, but at this moment, Zhou Ziyan did not dare to ask Jiang Baige. Since Jiang Baige had already returned, what about Jiang Xueyan?

The Temple Pope looked in horror at the place where Xing Fei had vanished. Even with his current Golden Immortal level cultivation, he had been utterly unable to see how Xing Fei had left.
