Chapter 149

Qi Feng stretched his neck as if wishing to turn into a giraffe in a single second, staring wide-eyed and peering intently toward the bed. Once he finally saw clearly, he froze in sheer astonishment.

Upon hearing this, Jin Feng was visibly stunned. He had merely intended to provoke hostility from the master jade carver toward Moke, never expecting that Moke would actually follow his lead. It was a complete and utter surprise to him.

"Could it be that Xi is lying to me? Everything he said about a father, a spatial rift, and building mecha to defeat the mechanical titans—was it all a lie?" Zhang Yifan took a deep breath, a myriad of mythical beasts stampeding through his mind.

"Then... when are we leaving?" Knowing that Qi Feng would definitely not take her along, Wei Qingcheng had no choice but to ask about his departure time indirectly.

Looking at the blood trickling from the corner of Wei Qingcheng's mouth, Yang Weikang smiled again. So what? In the end, didn't she still fall into his hands?

Faced with this sudden shift, Chen Wanyun was somewhat taken aback. What on earth was going on? Yet, it was precisely this seemingly yielding change of attitude that altered Wei Wuji's impression in Chen Wanyun's mind.

However... Emily closed her eyes. If Kong Cheng had exposed her identity to protect himself, she could understand. After all, who isn't afraid of death?

Given his young master's lofty status, he naturally could not lower himself to speak with these humble servants, so he had to let his subordinate speak on his behalf.

"Go down and make preparations immediately. Send a return message to the princess's estate stating that we agree to their marriage proposal, and at the same time, ask when they plan to come and fetch the bride..." Cao Yun said solemnly. This decision was the result of much careful deliberation.

The noises made along the way caused anyone unaware of her presence to assume they were merely made by a mouse, nothing larger.

Imperial Noble Consort Yuan was once again placed under house arrest in the Chengqian Palace. This was a blessing in disguise; at least for a while, Muzhang'a and Noble Consort Yuan would have to tuck their tails between their legs and behave.

She removed the golden hairpin from her head, feeling immensely grateful that, in order to avoid drawing attention, she had not worn the jade hair-pin given to her by Cao Jin.

Upon returning to the Imperial Household Department, she hurriedly picked and chose the finest items to prepare, then quickly made her way to the Lijing Pavilion in the Palace of Gathering Excellence.

Nanny Feng was truly experienced, having given birth to children in the past. With proper methods, after Su Pan'er's legs were kneaded in this manner, the pain gradually subsided.

"Pfft... Hubby, are you serious?" Song Weiwei was torn between laughter and tears. How could a grown man like him suddenly start fussing over a matter like this?

He was considered a prominent figure precisely because his appearance and abilities were exceptionally outstanding, yet he remained remarkably low-key and disliked standing out in the crowd.

A short while later, a troop of riders galloped past. Judging by their attire, they appeared to be government soldiers coming from the opposite direction, seemingly heading toward the capital.

From what Night Lingxiao had told her, Night Minglan's child was safe and sound, yet she also knew that someone like Meng Hui probably held no shred of pity for Night Minglan.

In her thirties, she was still unmarried and seemed to have no intention of changing that, single-mindedly dedicating herself to raising Charlie.

From afar, a faint sound of zither music drifted over. He guessed that Chu Yanqing might have come here, having been absent for so many days.

With the rental issue resolved so smoothly, I let out a huge sigh of relief. After closing the shop early at seven in the evening, I returned to the hotel, packed my luggage, checked out, and headed straight for Jingyu Yipin.

Fierce winds and driving rain, restless spirits, and ghosts returning home—this was not for family visits or bestowing blessings, but rather full of grief and resentment, which was an ominous sign indeed.

After Zhang Guifang arrived in Xiqi, he camped outside the city. Upon receiving the news, and knowing that Huang Feihu had defected to their side, Jiang Ziya was the first to obtain a general understanding of Zhang Guifang through Huang Feihu.

"Since we've already reached this point, there's no way we can send them back now," said Yue Li, who had remained silent from the beginning.

This Japanese Navy Vice Admiral was named Taro Gōhara. Accompanied by a large retinue, he reached the vanguard's aircraft carrier via the sea and then boarded a Flying Eagle fighter jet to Bao Province.

The shock lasted only for a split second. Immediately following it, the assassins who had previously looked at Shen Hao with sneering faces all knelt to the ground in unison.

For some reason, Su Yuanyuan always felt that the road today was shaking much more violently than when her older and second brothers used to carry her.

When Bureau Chief Zhang left, a security officer holding a subpoena application form happened to cross paths with Wang Hu, the third squad's deputy captain.

Zhong Chu had truly brought this upon himself, foolishly believing that Lu Fei would show him some shred of face. In reality, he was vastly oversimplifying the situation. While his status was certainly not low, thinking that Lu Fei would give him special consideration for that reason alone was simply too naive.

Zhang Zhi nodded and quickly recounted what had just happened, not daring to leave out a single detail.

The guards were all chilled to the bone, their hearts nearly frozen with terror. When Ye Tian's gaze swept over them, every single one of them dropped their guns to the ground.

Miaoliang felt a heavy stone lift from her heart seeing that Fojin did not pursue the matter further. Her head felt heavy and dizzy from pondering the lawsuit all afternoon. As she drifted off to sleep, she still had Miaoyu's few pages of paper on her mind, resolving to get her hands on them the very next day. Soon after, she fell fast asleep in a daze.

Ye Sheng soared into the air, overlooking the sea of flowers below, pinched a talisman paper between her fingertips, and closed her eyes.

Xiao Weibing's gaze gradually returned to normal, and he looked at Fairy Luofuo in a daze, completely at a loss.

"Hehe, Brother Yun, why are you so slow?" Fairy Luofuo came to a halt, standing with her arms crossed and casting a sidelong glance at Yun Bufan.

Because its iron claws contained Geng metal, digging with them was even more terrifying than the sharp talons of the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast. Even though the Titan battle slave's body could withstand heavy-duty bunker-busting missile bombardments, deep trenches were gouged out across its body under those indestructible claws, resembling irrigation ditches rather than the shallow marks left by the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast.
