Volume 1, Chapter 29: None of your business, get back to work.

Ling Jingshu took out the papers and unfolded them one by one. Upon seeing the contents, her expression shifted subtly, indescribable in its complexity.

The Divine Barrier is the fundamental obstacle of the Dao realm, also known as the Ultimate Purity Barrier. As the name suggests, it is the source of purification within the Dao realm. Any material from the Dao realm that is not absolutely pure will be inevitably purified to its origin upon entering this barrier.

After scattering the medicinal powder, the master waved his hand, signaling the Cen family soldiers standing by to carry the bound members of the An family back to the An residence and release their bonds, to prevent them from speaking recklessly and causing displeasure among everyone.

Meng Zelan smiled and said, “You’re overthinking. You don’t know that your second elder sister called you to the capital originally to tell you about a good marriage alliance. The matriarch has already agreed, but you never approached her.”

Once bitten by a snake, one is cautious for ten years. If she hadn’t revealed herself before the bandits last time, how would they have targeted her?

At this moment, the power of time reversed, and a cave she had never seen before appeared before Xiao Yu’s eyes. He gave up resisting and leapt inside.

But the banquet she arranged today was precisely to make Chu Qingluo more resolute against Ji Qiran! Thinking of this, she pressed her knuckles harder against the back of the chair.

All these years, Lin Zhixuan had been trying to arrange a marriage for her. The men sought were from families no worse than Du Qin’s, most holding official positions in the court.

Wei Mingxu strode forward holding Sister Xin, and within a few breaths, they had rushed out from the collapsing side hall.

The realm that Cen Dalang took over now was a wasteland, a thorny and extremely difficult hot potato. To stabilize those with ulterior motives, he would have to exhaust his mind and energy, investing much time and effort.

Xue Ning was as beautiful as a celestial being. Although it was unknown how many had seen her, she easily drew attention. Going with her to the entrance of the Xuanwu Forbidden Land was no simple matter.

Zhou You glanced at the time; it was already past eleven. He guessed that only the duty officers remained at the entire police station.

Panting softly, Guo Huitong plopped down in a patch of grass. She raised her eyes to the distant horizon, grimacing as she asked Hao Yu beside her.

At this thought, a surge of anger welled in her heart. Suddenly, she understood everything: Zhu Zixuan intended to make her feel trampled underfoot, to strip away her noble birth and reduce her to an inferior status beneath Zhu Zixuan’s.

Turning out of the courtyard, she just happened to meet Zhang San walking out. Yang Da Sao’s face paled in fright. Luckily, Zhang San was chatting hurriedly with the monkey, merely nodding slightly upon seeing her and passing by. Yang Da Sao breathed a sigh of relief and went inside to find Yifei.

Lin Hao tried to lure her with thirty million meters in gold and a villa in the demon market. Hua Yan flattered him with her chastity. At least both offered tangible benefits.

Song Guyan changed out of her milk-soaked vest and used an absorbent cloth to dry it.

Ding! You have been officially granted the title of Apprentice Archer by Mentor Yulia. Professional titles can be upgraded by completing tasks after leveling up; the higher the professional level, the more advanced skills you can learn.

Strengths and Weaknesses: Humanoid reasoning at eighty, possessing high intelligence, a flawless boss-level creature attribute; arrogance is the greatest weakness.

Misfortunes never come singly. Hao Yu was just targeted. The indestructible AI had to sever contact with him, unable to offer help for the time being. Hao Yu’s forthcoming journey could only rely on himself, while his enemies, aided by the super AI, would find it increasingly difficult to conceal his movements.

As the voice ended, a strikingly handsome man clad in a simple blue robe, whose presence made all other men feel ashamed, strode into the official chambers with overwhelming aura. He was the current Prime Minister of the Great Song.

This fellow usually spoke in a strange sing-song voice that irritated listeners, but today he spoke normally, Angus noted.

“Is this important? We don’t even seem to have asked,” a surrounding officer complained, feeling that such topics were inappropriate in such a serious atmosphere.

Once the call connected, the energetic voice of Emperor Guo rang out, and the figures of Nan Qinli and others appeared on the screen.

Yet, that sense of crisis did not dissipate. An Zhe knew he had only destroyed a fragment of the spirit body of the indestructible gluttonous parasite.

Everything he knew and understood so clearly told him a cruel truth. Though just a half-grown child, he seemed to see through the world more clearly than countless adults.

Only a handful followed behind him. The army obviously would not enter the city. Facing the people of the Demon City, Esdeath refrained from unleashing her overwhelming aura.

Since the truth was out, self-deprecation was permissible; as long as they pleased this spoiled heir, the misunderstanding would be resolved.

She asked casually, as if just making conversation, but Yun Hui did not immediately answer—he glanced at the Ghost Queen and then at the Queen of Heaven, seemingly weighing how to reply without putting himself at a disadvantage.

He swallowed nervously. This wasn’t because he had seen something forbidden, but because he was simply too anxious.

Today, Sun Yuanyuan was determined to deal with Su Mohan. She would not let matters rest so easily.

The cook instinctively pointed to the maids and only realized after speaking that in her fluster she had revealed the truth.

“I, the dignified Lord Qi, have been so humiliated today?” Qi angrily massaged his forehead, utterly unable to bear it, boiling with rage.

Hua Qingyan put away her thoughts and led the sulky Ming Yuehan, whose head had been tousled, to the alchemy room.

“What a gigantic figure!” Soul Extinction locked his eyes seriously on the vast red glow overhead. This so-called Eastern Emperor mentioned by Pigsy—who exactly was he?
