Volume 1, Chapter 53: Destined to Have No Wife

Jiang Yan had just been subjected to a thorough interrogation by Fu Che downstairs.

She had not expected him to remember every trivial matter from their childhood, from how her younger brother got things he was denied, to how her younger brother caused trouble while he took the beating.

He had recounted everything piece by piece, in a calm and deliberate manner, leaving her blushing furiously.

Feng Lin nodded; it seemed these were simply buff skills from those games, meant to enhance one's own status.

"For countless ages, you are the first person to find my true form during the trial. I am extremely curious. Just now, whether it was my aura fluctuations, my actions and behaviors, or even my expressions and gaze, they were identical to those of my avatars."

Having run several hundred feet away, they heard a succession of clashing weapon sounds and the angry roars of the Hulk echoing from behind.

The instant Huilian watched her senior sister die, an indescribable feeling welled up inside her, as if a sky full of bitter gall was churning within her stomach. She could not bear it and wanted to expel this bitterness, but just as it reached her lips, she forced it back down, leaving her with only an empty, bitter taste.

No one dared to break the rules. After hearing Ying Qiong's words, all the adults hurriedly gave their juniors a final round of instructions and then rushed to leave the venue. They knew that if they did not leave now, once the identification formation activated, they had no idea where they might be flung.

"Lian Yuncheng, come in. Chunhua, step outside and close the door behind you," Abbess Yinqiu said upon seeing Lian Yuncheng enter.

Monk Zhengyi calmed down slightly, staring at Lian Yuncheng as if looking at a prisoner. He scrutinized every pore on Lian Yuncheng's face, seemingly trying to read something from it.

The mere thought of being slapped and kicked by Ye Tian yesterday under the gaze of a large crowd still fueled the burning rage within his heart.

He had converted eight or nine-tenths of the clan's assets into 'Heavenly Spirit Powder,' intending to head to the Chaotic Lands to make a fortune. Indeed, if the goods were successfully sold in the Chaotic Lands, his Lu family fortune might not double overnight, but expanding it by seventy or eighty percent based on its original foundation was entirely possible.

Only then did the green snake carefully observe the Immortal Court, feeling spiritual energy pouring into her body at every moment, while her cultivation steadily rose and tended toward stability.

After spending two days building the brick-kangs in every room within the city, he went to the Newcomer Village to build kangs for them as well. In less than ten days, this massive project was completely finished, and every household was provided with straw mats.

Without even looking, Yu Gubai tossed the pill into his mouth, took a sip of water, and swallowed it with a tilt of his head—a motion both bold and elegant, executed in one fluid movement.

At this moment, Yu Gubai, as the eldest son and eldest grandson, felt a pain that was almost numb. Looking at his mother weeping hysterically before him, his unconscious father lying on a stretcher not far away, and his younger sister—whom he still could not believe had been separated from him by death forever—he finally could not help but choke up and sobbed aloud.

Jun Mo furrowed his brows and said, "Right now it's a case of each side telling a different story. His Majesty does not entirely believe him, nor does he entirely believe us. His Majesty asked for Min'er's opinion; it would be best if she is willing to marry the King of Miaojiang, but if she is unwilling, His Majesty will write a letter to negotiate with the King of Miaojiang, allowing you to become the successor wife to the First Prince of Miaojiang."

Time seemed to freeze for a moment. Yu Haohao had also met Guo Jingnian a few times, and before the cold wave, they had even gone out to chop firewood together.

Xu Heng took it in his hand and glanced at it, unable to discern any profound mysteries. He swallowed it directly into his mouth, only to find that the pill traveled smoothly all the way down and settled in his stomach without the slightest sign of releasing its medicinal power.

Hearing the sound, Lao Qian the doorman immediately came out, looked Yu Zhannan up and down from head to toe, and asked with a face full of smiling wrinkles.

Looking at the options on the system interface, Lu Xuan was slightly stunned in her heart. What startled her was not this task, but the reward attached to it.
