Volume One, Chapter 21: The Autumn Hunt Assassination Reveals a Conspiracy, the Crown Prince Turns the Tables

At this moment, a figure slowly walked from one room to another.
I understood immediately, yet a dull ache spread through my heart. I dared not sleep with her lightly; whenever such matters were mentioned, Han Rong's face would surface in my mind.
Four white mages might sound formidable, but in truth, if they fail to control their opponents and allow the opposing damage-dealing classes to unleash their burst, Red Fox's side can easily collapse.
Although Ling Feng’s martial arts are exceptional, the girl Yun’er possesses no internal energy at all. Even with an elder’s protection, I fear she would perish if sent to perform the weaving.
On April 19th, in the 12th year of the New Era, Lin Yue arrived at the Military Commission for work as usual. However, unlike other days, as soon as he entered the office, the other commissioners looked at him with strange expressions. Shortly thereafter, personnel from the Arrest Division, directly under the Political Commission, suddenly declared they were there to apprehend Lin Yue.
Once they confirmed there was no danger, they stepped onto the green stairs and made their way to the top of the pyramid.
"Hahahaha, what a piece of trash, weak as hell! He couldn't even take a single strike under Brother Zhou’s blade!" The long-faced man behind Shan Qingzi shouted incessantly, hurling mockery as if he were the one who had just thrashed the dark-faced man.
When the battle report from Xuyang City reached the headquarters in Bian City, the entire city erupted in cheers. This battle at Xuyang City gave the people of the Lingying Alliance hope.
I first went to a pawnshop to pawn some items in exchange for banknotes, as the banknotes from outside were useless here, and I didn't have much cash on me. I had no choice but to pawn something for silver.
To my surprise, the one who ran out with them was Jia Zhihai, the bespectacled guy from our dormitory.
For a time, it was impossible to tell what the relationship between this Third Prince and the current Emperor truly was.
Zhou Xinzhi nodded. It seemed this ancient era had such bold festivals—wasn't this just a massive matchmaking event?
Qiaocui had also come along; she had been trained by the matron to style hair since late at night, all to ensure that Zhou Xinzhi would not encounter any issues during the investiture ceremony.
Qiao Xi turned deathly pale and shouted, "I won't go!" How was this any different from humiliation?
To use black crystal ants for labor in such a way is truly a waste of heavenly treasure and not worth the loss. The use of white crystals is merely for refining equipment, specifically for the materials required for certain third-grade spirit tools.

Chu Ge was pulled along by him, hurrying forward two steps, and nearly collided with the sofa beside her. With a startled gasp, she was pulled into Lu Yiming’s arms the next moment.
The figures around them quickly vanished. As Muse watched the rapidly flickering phantoms, she felt her own body become constrained, suddenly frozen in place.
Heaven knows how hard she struggled when facing An Jingrou, just to keep from lunging at her to strangle her or tear her to shreds.
A dull, masculine voice emanated from the broadcasting equipment, the tone intentionally exaggerated. Yu Xing raised an eyebrow, immediately realizing that multiple broadcasts were playing simultaneously.
Shang Jiuge, Gu Xiaoyao, and Wudao—those peerless prodigies from the immortal factions—had personalities quite to Jiang Yun's liking, and he had intentions of befriending them.
Bibi Dong contemplated the black hole she had just learned about from the Life God King, and then thought of that Tang San from another dimension.
Chen Fei took a brief look; the difference between these two was that one was a subspecies, and both were at the mature stage.
Chang Xiao spoke up, and I took a look as well. Although I couldn't sense how good the feng shui was ahead, compared to other places, it was indeed a rather decent spot.
Not to mention Uchiha Itachi, then there was Deidara. He could be considered a misguided soul who had been led astray. At most, he wasn't very bright, but he wasn't necessarily a despicable person.
This statement served as consent to begin the soul-summoning. The man nodded, then signaled, and several men like him emerged.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Ability Unit, sitting at the head of the table, picked up the paper and read it twice. His expression rapidly shifted from clear to overcast, and soon, dark clouds gathered.
Qingxia was only eleven, and Qingyun was only thirteen; how could they possibly process such a major event in such a short time?
They, too, could scheme, but what they craved was the kind of camaraderie and respect that even rivals could share.
But these sounds made me feel increasingly terrified and tense; I never expected it to all be staged by the paparazzi.
Though the Wangxiang Terrace is a supreme immortal scripture technique, it cannot help a Nascent Soul expert defy a Void Refinement expert; it all depends on the choice of the evil spirit.

However, the truth was that Chu Guan really had exerted the strength of someone defecating, yet he still could not refine chakra.
Yu Shuangshuang came before the battalion commander and performed a comprehensive examination, asking him questions as she checked him.
At first, Chu Guan had assumed he was a grandmaster and expected his talent to be quite high. Finding out he was at this level left him slightly shocked, but it was precisely because of this that Chu Guan became even more eager to teach him magic.
"Sister Ruochuan, you’ve misunderstood. I truly didn't mean it like that." Zhao Yiyi pulled at her clothes pitifully, looking at Ye Ruochuan with an innocent expression.
Luo Cheng exerted force and struck down hard, but the crystal remained unmoved. Luo Cheng realized his current strength was absurdly powerful, yet he couldn't even break it with a single punch.
After Wu Yingbo returned from the super training room and opened the refrigerator, he found there were no groceries left. He went to the market to buy some, and to avoid suspicion, he walked back carrying two bags of vegetables.
Because when the two of them woke up, Zhou Yu and Lin Xue were already gone, and they had been captured by the savages on the mountain.
Seeing that Hua Gong was feeling down, Yu Shuangshuang wanted to cheer him up, so she told some witty jokes, hoping to dissipate his bad mood.
This was his first time transmigrating into a movie copy rather than an anime one; the other party’s appearance and mannerisms were exactly like those portrayed in the film.
After all, Zhang Wanrong knew that Master Zhang’s eyes could kill Yang Minghui as easily as stepping on an ant.
She had come to this gathering specifically because she had learned beforehand from Yu Xiuyin that Cen Yongan had organized it with a hidden motive: he wanted to get Yu Xiubai drunk so he would be docile and let the brothers play pranks on him. After all, he was usually such a cold, ascetic "god" of a man.
