No! Others must not find out!

Although she had no idea what they were here for, considering that Tang San was Tang Niannian's brother, Xue Ke still allowed them into the private box.

The manager was somewhat speechless. Were they really friends with the princess?

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

Acknowledging the order, the manager immediately put on a flattering smile and respectfully invited Tang San and the others inside.

Xiao Wu let out a cold snort, giving neither the manager nor the guards a pleasant look.

Tang Niannian cast a gentle glance at Xiao Wu, finding her somewhat overbearing.

Relying on sheer determination and the backing of the Ye family, Ye Yingfei eventually climbed to the rank of Imperial Noble Consort, yet she was constantly suppressed by Empress Mingzhen.

Just imagine, the Dowager had managed the Yun clan for many years, commanding great prestige and respect, where every word she uttered was worth its weight in gold. How could she possibly have put the Second Concubine, Madam Hua, in such an embarrassing position at the dining table in front of several maidservants? The Dowager was clearly speaking in riddles, using the occasion to rebuke certain actions of the Second Master, Yun Qi.

Mu Churan’s eyelids fluttered slightly, as if she were about to wake up. For some unknown reason, Xiao He suddenly felt a prick of guilt, quickly withdrawing his hand and resuming his feigned sleep.

"Come on, let's go in together." Mu Qingwan naturally hooked her arm through Xiao He's. Unable to refuse, Xiao He let himself be half-pulled into the side hall.

At this point, he suddenly shut his mouth because he could not see any exit whatsoever in this ethereal space. Even when he turned back, his expression shifted slightly, for behind him—the exact place where he had just entered—there was likewise no exit to be found.

"You're worse than a beast! Honestly, sigh, you're driving me crazy," Hua Yuechan said with a face full of disappointment, as if she had missed out on some exceptionally wonderful opportunity.

The ordered stir-fries and soup were served, and the two picked up their chopsticks and began to eat. Just as they were eating, the door to the private room was pushed open. You Tianliang and Propaganda Department Head Liu Feng walked in, and upon seeing that Qin Feng and Jia Jia occupied a table, they sat down without the slightest bit of courtesy.

Meanwhile, Lü Xiangxiang's party was traveling in three carriages, two of which were particularly ostentatious, drawing countless stares from pedestrians along the road. Upon arriving at the Lü residence, people in the neighborhood finally realized that this newly relocated family was far from ordinary.

Tombs are quite different from human dwellings; they generally cannot see the light of day, devoid of blue skies and white clouds. The space is littered with gravel, and the surrounding atmosphere is intensely oppressive.

Beads of sweat, large as soybeans, popped out coldly on Zhang Tian's forehead. The cold, austere aura emanating from Xiao Yu made him feel a deathly oppression and fear, as if an ancient fierce beast had emerged to devour all things.

Yet at that exact moment, the right leg David had kicked forward suddenly bent, and with a fierce whistling of wind, he abruptly switched movements into a side kick, his large boot hurtling straight toward Wan Miao's chest.

Such a powerful entity, a Supreme Elder of the Kunlun Sect, had thus fallen. This bloody reality filled the hearts of many with terror and extreme awe.

A young male attendant of about twenty, dressed in a clean white shirt, immediately blocked Xiao Yu's path.

Lan Zijiang withdrew his gaze, closing his eyes slightly to feel the caress of the evening breeze. The scent of blood was fainter than it had been during the day, carrying a coolness that made one somewhat sleepy.

The giant hooves of the lions thudded heavily against the ground, and the horses ridden by the examinees at the front were so terrified they scrambled to get out of the way, almost throwing their riders from their saddles.

The bandits are currently dispatching troops from three camps, with two camps positioned on our left flank. Consequently, the enemy forces on the left are too formidable to charge against.

Outside the wagon array, guards lit bonfires a few dozen paces away, fearing that assassins might launch a sneak attack under the cover of night—at the very least, their figures would be exposed from that distance.

Coupled with the fact that her health had always been poor and she frequently had to visit the hospital, her parents-in-law became even more dissatisfied with her, cursing her as a jinx and the like.

Today, in order to go out, Yue'er had changed into men's clothing early in the morning. The two rode side by side on horseback and before long arrived at the Court of State Ceremonies.

"Wait a minute, Commander Han. I understand what you mean, but among these massive armies, many are people who have been eroded by evil qi and turned into monsters. We don't have to kill every single one of them!" Yue Fei said cautiously.
