Chapter 41: An Old Customer’s Warmth

On the first day of the New Year, which was also the first New Year Fang Mingxi spent here, she guessed that the black market would be very lively today, so she had made preparations for it early on.

First, she transferred the mountain goods she had prepared over this period into her back basket. There were still various kinds of mushrooms, wild eggs, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and a large basket of wild strawberries.

She did not go to the black market every day, basically going only once every few days. Although she went infrequently, she had quite a few regular customers.

As Xia Bing had also said, apart from her, no one else had ever given him money, or perhaps he had simply never accepted any from anyone else since.

Zheng Fan asked with great anticipation, assuming that Mengyu was going to compare him to some ancient personage or sage.

That was a head of a family split into three distinct factions. Fortunately, although the internal strife within the Gu family had been quite apparent back then, they remained remarkably united when facing outsiders. Coupled with the presence of three supreme realm masters holding down the fort, they still managed to become the premier noble family of the Xuanlong Dynasty.

At this moment, the tall man no longer reined in the behavior of the shorter one, his eyes scanning Zhang Zihan’s body uninhibitedly, his gaze wandering up and down.

Xia Xuan produced golden needles and inserted them into Tang Hao’s Baihui acupoint, then channeled his internal energy to help him jump-start his body's self-healing capabilities.

Having lived in the imperial capital for a few days and having asked Gu Hong many questions about the Xuanlong Dynasty, Wang Yang learned that the dynasty had two emperors of the Heaven and Earth realm holding down the fort. Since this was hardly a secret within the imperial capital, it was naturally shared with Wang Yang.

The implication was that, after all, the bearded man was introduced by you. If the other party spoke falsehoods, wouldn't that reflect poorly on your own credibility?

As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Yan's wrist with one hand and gave it a vicious twist, snapping Chen Yan's hand right off.

Gu Wushang did not look at Wang Yang's expression this time. He had figured out that as long as he looked at Wang Yang's face, his mood would sour. Therefore, he simply chose neither to look nor to listen, finding it better to just speak his own mind.

When it came to healing injuries, martial artists with the wood attribute were still the most proficient. However, Zhan Wushuang's injuries were inflicted by a top-tier Heaven and Earth realm emperor; to treat such wounds using the advantages of wood-attribute healing required a wood-attribute emperor of the exact same realm to make a move.

"I cannot accept that. I require full-process supervision, as well as the right to terminate the experiment at any time," Neos said very seriously.

The few South Korean players who had been lifted into the air were startled and hurriedly rushed toward the open ground, but who could have imagined that the moment they landed, I had already appeared right beside them.

"So, what are your thoughts on 'alllying' with the Zhongzhou Team?" Although Neos was regarded as the decision-maker among the three, and the other two acknowledged this status, it did not mean he would not seek their opinions. Neos understood the principle that even a wise man could make a thousand errors.

"You!" A bit of powder fell from Ling Qing's face. She had to admit that she had aged a lot recently. In order to busy herself with the arrangements for Xia Yenuo's wedding, she had been running around relentlessly, only for someone else to ruin it in the end, rendering all her hard work completely futile.

In the Jiang family army, there were dedicated military scribes during every battle to record military achievements, and promotions were only granted once the required threshold was reached. Today, the fact that Jiang Yiming and the others in the tent had reached the rank of company commander could be considered a special, exceptional promotion.

"Jellal, the R-System is now complete. Choose: do you want to resurrect Zeref, or do you want to resurrect your companions?" Murong Chen did not immediately choose to resurrect Ultear, but instead posed the question to Jellal.

Xia Qingxin smiled faintly. This was the first time she had smiled since that incident with Li Yishan, but her smile was one of gritted teeth, suggesting that not only did she know Meier, but she also harbored some deep grudge against her.

I knew nothing of all this. In the morning, I was awakened by the ringing of a telephone, mentally cursing myself for forgetting to turn off the ringer last night, and wondering who on earth was calling me so early in the morning.
