Chapter 73: The Foundation Establishment Lightning Tribulation-With a Dimensional Chat Group in Hand, the Doomed Side Character Soars to Immortality(Ephemeral clouds and fleeting winds, like the tinkling of wind chimes in passing moments.)

Yun Xi handed two spirit stones to Dumpling, sent the person away, and then stepped forward, raising her voice:

“Senior, I’d like to rent a cave dwelling.”

The old man opened his eyes, yawned, and, upon seeing Yun Xi, asked, “Our establishment offers three grades of cave dwellings—superior, medium, and basic—differentiated by the concentration of spiritual energy and the array formations within. The price in spirit stones varies accordingly. Which grade would you like?”

Wei Yunxi grinned and said, “Senior,

‘What a powerful sacred beetle! It can suppress another inheritor of the same realm so effortlessly.’ Dai Bin’s expression was both surprised and doubtful as his gaze shifted from the milky-white orbs darting about the parlor to Li Tongxuan’s face.

Zhan Tiankuang ignored him; the three of them turned and charged outside. Upon reaching the boundary, they seemed to collide with an invisible barrier, their steps abruptly halted.

“Reporting to my lord, previously the Palace Mistress commanded me to investigate her would-be assassin. I have now uncovered some information and wish to report to the Palace Mistress,” Ye Shu replied.

Shen Yi turned back and smiled at her. His smile was pure and made others feel at ease. Though he lacked the ethereal grace of Yi Fan, she had to admit that Shen Yi was a striking man who easily inspired goodwill.

The person lying in the coffin was also his closest kin. Liu Che could sense that his father departed with a smile largely because of him. That smile held both expectation and trust.

Chen Hu could already feel the temperature dropping significantly; the snow line couldn’t be far now.

But he had never expected that within just two months of his departure, Liu Quli would have an accident. More precisely, both he and Li Guangli had been denounced. The informer brought to Liu Che their plot on the Wei River to establish the Prince of Changyi as crown prince.

“The grand pacification has already been approved by His Majesty. Yet he continues to stir up trouble time and again. Since you’ve caused no great mishap this time, you’ll be spared. But if you dare defy orders again, the crime of deceiving the sovereign is punishable by beheading!” Yang He snorted, sweeping out with Shen Yikui and the others.

This… Luo Zhen’s cheeks flushed red. “No!” Though inexperienced, she understood well enough what this fool’s actions implied. But with the sun blazing so high outside, she would never agree! Besides, besides—who had taught him such things?

Wang Rui was appointed Inspector of Jingzhou thanks to memorials from Lu Zhi, Yuan Kui, and other high ministers, who sought to counterbalance Dong Zhuo’s power at court. Wang Rui, a capable man, immediately promoted a host of talented individuals upon assuming office, including the renowned Wang Wei, Deng Xi, Han Song, and Liu Xian.

If He Qi hadn’t clung to Liu Yiyi and gained Yang Chengzong’s favor, things would not have gone so smoothly in acquiring the thunder spiritual root.

Daoist Bai Xiao was quite surprised—Cang Tan Yun still remembered the Southern Wastes, this treasured land, and himself, who had once been used by him. Presumably, there was still value to be had.

Bu An kept chewing the goose meat in his mouth, turning it over and over but never swallowing, causing the others—who were waiting for him to continue—to grow increasingly anxious.

“Lai, you bastard, don’t you dare take my kindness for weakness! If any of you lay a finger on Auntie and her daughter today, I’ll break your remaining leg!” A fierce, thunderous shout came from in front of a dilapidated earthen house.

The reason for refusing Qiu Wuji that day was the sense that he was not as simple as he appeared, but now there was no time for such concerns. When a matter is at hand, one must make a choice. In the end, he briefly mentioned the Five-element Life-founding Pill.

But just then, as Lin Shupi’s army had finished annihilating the dinosaur troops, Lin Jianya’s reinforcements arrived.

Fangqu Village, Hedao Town, Mubao Fortress, Shichang Town, then along the Malin River northward past Huan Prefecture to Wulun Village, Suyuan Village, and Hongde Village.

They say a game is but a dream, but in the end, a dream is only a fantasy—there’s only the game, never the dream.

The voice was crisp, pleasant, and melodious, but Bao Chu and Zhu Gongdao both looked pained. Was this really a solution? How was it any different from that unreliable Yang Aruo?
