127 Rakshasa Maiden

Meanwhile, Bai Zongnan stood aside, waiting for an opportunity.

“This move by Mo Zijian is definitely effective. Gai Qingshu is being suppressed; I wonder how long he can hold on,” Bai Zongnan said, his gaze fixed on Gai Qingshu.

After Mo Zijian used the black token, his combat power surged dramatically, enough to slay a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, let alone a mere early Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.

“I will wait until Mo Zijian gains the upper hand, then seize the moment to launch a surprise attack on Gai Qingshu, delivering a fatal blow.”

Stepping out of the stone formation, the sight before her was a field of corpses—arriving here late last night, the air was thick with decay, but it was not as brazenly bloody and terrifying as during the day... She recoiled a few steps, opening her mouth to vomit, but in the end, no bile came forth.

Ling Tian’s handsome face remained as cold and aloof as ever. Today, he had merely encountered Mu Xuan by chance and came to see who the mortal master chosen by Liuli truly was.

Xie Zhi looked at Qin Hong in surprise; Qin Hong sighed helplessly, “Awan, this is not Huaihuang. There are many places here beyond your imagination.” The poverty of the borderlands was something Xie Zhi could hardly conceive.

“What? Ten plants? Are you crazy? When my old man returns, he’ll skin me alive and beat me senseless!” Niu Er shook his head vigorously, like a rattle drum.

Fortunately, Xironghua’s milk supply was scant. Due to her weak condition, she did not nurse the Third Prince at night, so each of the three wet nurses still had one or two chances to feed him daily.

The Guo family borrowed several carts to move the sweet potatoes, farming tools, and remaining large bundles of sweet potato vines.

Gazing into the cold, merciless eyes of the Celestial Master, Lei Tian grew cautious. Though the Celestial Master’s rationality seemed to have vanished, a wild instinct far stronger than reason appeared to be awakening within him.

At that moment, the telephone on the office desk rang urgently. Everyone frowned; during meetings, no calls were allowed to interrupt.

Xie Zhi’s collection of land rent was modest. After taxes, the tenants received thirty percent more grain this year than usual, all thanks to increased harvests. How could anyone not be pleased? Moreover, the village’s income no longer came solely from grain but also from livestock, counted as work points and converted into copper coins at year-end.

“Hongyan, your master doted on you dearly, but what did Ni do? He cruelly killed him over a secret manual. Do you remember how he tormented him to death?” The Empress Dowager’s eyes blazed with fury as memories flashed before her.

“Understood.” Ouyang Qianyu had been here many times and could navigate it blindfolded. As for danger, as long as one avoided the undeveloped deep mountain forests, there was no threat from wild beasts.

At this moment, Duan Ran’s dantian and heart pumped like a powerful water engine, channeling surging energy throughout his limbs and body.

Though Tiepíng City was neither wealthy nor advanced, its special status as a self-governed land made it uniquely chaotic.

Duan Ran’s plan included cultivating Senior Brother Zhao and Senior Brother Mu into formidable half-step Return to the Elixir Stage practitioners, hence he followed up on Senior Brother Zhao’s questions.

Stepping out of Dantai Yuqin’s room, Su Xin’s footsteps felt light, as if walking on clouds.

Duan Ran brimmed with confidence and unstoppable momentum, possessing the unyielding vigor of youth that never tasted defeat.

Sun Haochi did not immediately give the talent evolution pills to the children. Instead, he planned to wait until they reached the fifth or sixth level of Qi Control and had established a foundation before administering them.

“Oh, Chengcheng, I miss you so much I can’t sleep or eat!” Qin Wu hugged Gong Cheng tightly, showering him with kisses. Heaven only knew how excited and thrilled she was at this moment.

Though Wei Qingqing was deeply reluctant, she could not resist imperial authority. She obediently lifted her head, revealing her face, submitting to Emperor Wu’s unrestrained scrutiny.
