Volume 1, Chapter 32: The Filially Blind Workhorse Elder Brother in an Ancient Imperial Examination Tale 12

Li Jianhua dragged his heavy feet, walking forward step by step with great difficulty. Looking at Lin Yongquan’s current state, he had no idea how to explain it using science.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator, fleeing at high speed a dozen feet above the ground, was startled by the momentum of the iron sword.

As soon as she heard there was a cat, she could not bring herself to leave, following them into the public elevator.

Soga Kiriren held a spoon, still keeping it in her mouth, and tilted her head to look at Shiraishi Zeshui, her eyes clearly asking, "Am I not?"

In the lecture hall, as the PowerPoint slides flipped one after another, Han Sen explained the content point by point from the podium.

The silly groom gave a bashful, sheepish smile. His awkward manner was unexpectedly cute, making Fang Mumu unable to bring herself to blame him.

"Hahaha, Zhen Yanyan, why are you so cute?" Lin Luzhi laughed until she doubled over, clutching her aching stomach with her left hand and slapping the sofa with her right. She looked up at Zhen Yanyi from time to time, then burst into laughter again.

Bai Hua, however, looked indifferent. After all, it wasn’t as if she had intentionally put it on display; it was he who had insisted on seeing it. Hmph, he had no one to blame but himself.

Zhao Yazi was lying on the bed chatting on WeChat when she suddenly looked stunned at the carnations, fruit basket, and gifts Ye Chen was carrying.

Everyone was clothed and accustomed to it, so regardless of Ye Chen being in the water, they jumped in one by one and grabbed the floating wood to stay afloat.

"Hey, what is this supposed to mean? You aren't the HR manager, so there’s no need for you to worry your head about this kind of thing, right?" Wu Zijuan instinctively objected. She knew very well that the man had nothing to do with her; she had only dragged Tao Ran in as a temporary boyfriend. How could she let him get fired over this?

"Jinfeng, go back to the Jialan City now. Tell Ji and Yuan at the temple that Lu Lian has been captured by someone from the Demon Realm," Huaxi commanded.

However, to say he had taken a liking to her beauty—the first thing out of his mouth was just asking where to eat, as if he were truly a starving ghost reincarnated.

"Damn it, you dare to obstruct me!" The voice of Chaos, filled with faint anger, echoed through the constantly squirming corridor.

"The two of you still have that old habit; can't you show some restraint? You have none of the demeanor expected of sect peak masters. You really should learn more from Junior Brother Mi," he said, turning his head to look at the young man in Taoist robes who was closing his eyes to rest.

Cang Jiuyao was also pondering this question: Why would Ren Xiaoxiao suddenly come to Jiayun Pass with such a massive fanfare?

Xuanyuan Tianyi lay slumped on the ground, his legs covered in blood and gore. One leg had been blown away and was clearly immobilized. Master Zhuoren was pressing one hand against his head, chanting incantations, while Master Zhuoren’s own chest was pierced by a lizard’s tail.

The strange insect let out a painful roar, its massive body slamming heavily onto the ground, causing the space to tremble once more.

Yun Tu had many, many questions in her heart, but just because she asked them did not mean Ming Hanfeng would answer.

He had just noticed the pot used for frying things nearby; it was very dirty, with a pitch-black layer along the rim, and even the oil didn't look very clean.

Tong Yujin took Duoduo’s hand, preparing to head to the backyard, but the brat insisted on following his grandfather. Fine, if the two children weren't following her, she could at least enjoy some peace and quiet.

Outside the door, Chen Mo-yan was truly startled to hear that voice, which sounded so urgent and panicked, as if it were about to burst into tears.

After dismissing his wife, Master Zhang stroked his beard and pondered deeply. He thought about many things, finally summarizing it into one point: everything depended on the Emperor’s ambition and resolve to govern.

After Kratos killed the gods and sealed himself away, he abandoned the Blades of Chaos, which were infused with his hatred and dark past.

"Brother Daniu, please give Qinglan a call now. Tell her I’m inviting her to my house to play. Tell her Zhao Mo is busy lately and isn't coming to see me, so I’m bored at home and would like her to come keep me company," Du Xinru said after some thought.

Tian Zihang frowned, staring at the few dishes laid out before him for a long while.

Tong Yujin, having been thrown, seemed to regain her senses. She looked up at the deep trench, which was shaped like an irregular strip. The slopes of the trench walls were steep in some places and gentle in others; it seemed possible to climb out.

As for Wang Liang, he was nothing but an ugly dwarf. Su Ying had always looked down on him and would certainly never grant her noble, delicate body to such a vulgar, penniless man.

Seeing the attitude the princess held toward the two of them, their hearts skipped a beat. Could these two be male favorites the princess was keeping on the side?

"Heh, I think this coffee tastes quite good. You should try it." Seeing Tao Hua regain her focus, Su Mu-chen didn't say anything else, just smiled and spoke to her about the coffee.

The call ended just like that. He was forcing me to make a decision. I activated "slacker mode"—putting it off day by day. After all, someone else was more anxious than I was.

Disturbed from her rest, Bai Muxue no longer felt sleepy. She propped herself up, stretched, and got out of bed. She went to the wardrobe, took out a goose-yellow dress she often wore, and changed into it. Looking in the mirror, she smoothed out the wrinkles on the dress and headed to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face.

"An unacknowledged person—don't tell me you're even afraid to strike him, Dicir?" Liya said from the side, her tone half-mocking.

Yan Lan smiled slightly and slowly opened the package. Yes, it was that dress—the exact same style as the one that had been destroyed before, with no difference whatsoever. At least, to the naked eye. Yan Lan seemed to see again the kind smile Zhao Dong had worn when he gave her the dress, and her heart felt a bit sore.

Yan Lan did indeed do so, but just as she was about to give chase, she was interrupted by an annoying voice.

Mi Yiqing suddenly felt uncomfortable; her hands were trembling slightly. This was the first time she had encountered such an occasion.

"No, if anyone goes, I’ll go first. The sect needs you more!" Deputy Leader Ma was not a man without loyalty; the friendship they had forged over many years went without saying. How could he watch his brother go to his death to cover his retreat?

Seeing this scene, the crowd broke into a cold sweat, shouting loudly to move forward and support them. But at this moment, they realized helplessly that they were also in trouble, unable to look after themselves. In addition to the first golden beam of light striking Feng Yu, a second, third, and so on... were also rising from the ground.
