Chapter 191: I Am a Stone in the Mountains!

Obviously, judging by the established destiny currently known, the level of power in this world was far higher than Li Chang'an had anticipated, though exactly how much higher remained unclear to him for the time being.

But regardless, for the present Li Chang'an, entering a world with a high-tier power system was ultimately much better than entering one with a lower tier.

Setting everything else aside, the probability of obtaining superior treasures was at least vastly greater than in a low-end world.

Yuan Xie had bought a residence in the southern water towns ahead of time for Li Longyu to live in; as it turned out, he had long arranged a retreat for after their departure from Luoyang, he simply had not yet found the opportunity to mention it to her.

"Aren't you just a wolf?" Ben Chi said, yet she deeply relished the feeling of nestling within Mu Yiyang's embrace.

Yet with Jiufang Changyuan's words laid bare and the surrounding crowd entirely composed of onlookers eager for drama—not a single soul expressing the slightest fraction of sympathy or pity for her—Yue Feiyan's eyes brimmed with red, for she truly had never suffered such grievance and humiliation in all her life.

When that Han man leapt down from the half-meter-high vessel and stood firm, the expressions of these clansmen transformed in unison.

Zhan Gai let out a wretched shriek as the black flames upon his body abruptly surged toward the heavens, accompanied by a turbulent spray of fresh blood erupting alongside the dark blaze.

The very person An Zheng and his companions had tried every conceivable means to find had actually been picked up by her people, and was staying right within the Four Prefectures.

Be that as it may, seeing that these things were all still here made me quite pleased, so I returned them to their original places and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Ningle subconsciously wanted to touch her face with her hand, but her wrist was caught in someone's grasp; she turned her head, only for her chin to be lifted by another.

Mocked so coldly by his words, the irritation in Shen Zhe's heart grew even sharper, leaving his chest feeling stifled and uncomfortable.

A startled howl rang out; the passersby, originally accustomed to such sights, had long grown used to a man like Sun Hao, yet they dared not intervene, so most of them continued forward with indifference, but with this sudden cry of terror, they halted their steps one after another, staring in astonishment at Sun Hao lying upon the ground.

She could not help but harbor doubts in her heart, and pretending it was nothing, she found a staff member responsible for receiving clients in the gym, beating around the bush to gather information from them.

Otherwise, she would not have brooded over her father's matters for so many years, nor would she have disbelieved the truth spoken by anyone else, choosing only to believe the truth she herself imagined.

Commanding Princess Yi'an's body was clearly still trembling, yet her emotions had visibly stabilized a great deal by now.

"Wishful thinking," Fang Jian sneered, then raised a hand in a summoning gesture, and in an instant, clouds soared from all four corners and mist arose from all eight directions.

Bai Mengxi was also startled, looking at Madam He in great surprise, though her mood grew increasingly heavy.

To ensure the reliability of the intelligence, scouts were required to monitor one another and were not permitted to act alone, so there were at least two of them.

With this order given, many people returned to their rooms one after another, and some robust men even shouldered their hoes and went directly to the fields, thinking to take advantage of this weather to turn the soil, lest it should snow in another ten days or half a month, at which point they could no longer tend to the farmland.

Zhu Wushuang and the others followed closely behind. Once everyone had departed, the sea-patrolling Yaksha finally managed to crawl up from the ocean with great effort. He submerged into the water, and only after a long while did he find the sea-searching Yaksha. Looking closely, the head was gone, completely dead beyond any doubt.

Li Zhe said, take the assistants and the stove to the ruined temple north of the city, bring more steamed buns and two jars of Dukang wine! Will fifty taels of silver suffice.

Hu Wu held a middle-aged man in custody, whose clothes were disheveled and hair was a tangled mess; though restrained, his two eyes rolled about, scanning the surroundings and revealing an excited glint.

"Yes, yes, yes, of course, I will have the people below cooperate fully with you!" Zheng Yiguo said with a superficial, joyless smile.

He also extended his own hand and shook hands with Liu Qianqian. Since his state of mind had already been disrupted, he might as well set fishing aside for now.

"Reporting to Your Highness, when your servant came to report, the Prince had just entered the main gates of the prince's mansion," the maid replied truthfully with her head bowed.
