Chapter 142: Rong Jinfeng Arrives

When Fan Xiaoyou returned to Imperial Scenery Mansion, no sooner had she stepped through the door than Rong Jinfeng’s voice reached her ears, "Xiaoyou, how was your first day?"

Seeing it was Rong Jinfeng, Fan Xiaoyou hurriedly stepped forward in delight and embraced her. "Mom, why are you here? You..."

Naturally, possessing a system would not instantly make one invincible. To be stronger than the younger generation, to surpass some contemporaries, was already quite remarkable. Furthermore, being stronger than anyone from the past thousand years was truly formidable.

Even though the fine sand had been expelled from his body, he had to admit that the eerie attack of "Li" had dealt him a severe blow. At this moment, he could muster no strength at all, relying entirely on the golden brick in his hand to slowly channel energy into his body, barely maintaining a shred of consciousness.

Xiao Can was sporting several visible wounds, and Han Mingche, whom he was holding captive, looked no better than him.

With a flash of the blade, hot blood sprayed forth, several droplets splashing onto Li Shu's face. Her brows relaxed for a split second, and following the pure scent of blood, she slowly opened her eyes.

As for the several figures behind Cheng Ge, they were precisely the remaining eleven guards, whose strength was by no means weak. Every single one of them was at least at the Foundation Establishment realm.

Hearing this whisper, Gu Sanqian’s brows furrowed tightly. With a shift of his incantation, the red glow outside his body deepened by another layer, and his speed increased once more.

At the entrance of the interrogation room, Ye Ye saw President Wang standing there, so he immediately looked at him and spoke.

The crucial point was that Feng Chengcheng was completely unaware of all this, which meant Xu Zilong had taken full advantage of her without any effort.

Having finalized the menu, the two called Steward Zhao over and instructed him to have the estate's chefs prepare a few dishes from the menu for every meal henceforth, rotating them so that Qiao Jinyu would not grow tired of them.

The mistress and servant made their way one after the other to the pavilion in the courtyard, their shadows stretched very, very long by the moonlight spilling from the firmament.

Within his deep, starlit eyes, flecks of silver light danced. In Lin Xiao's sight, the hidden array markings were exposed without a trace. In just a few breaths, the outermost illusion array was seen through, along with its underlying principles and operational direction, all thoroughly comprehended.

The black-haired youth smiled coldly and drew a flexible thin sword from his waist. Looking less like a sword and more like a sword-whip, he flicked it with one hand, causing the thin blade to lengthen like a whip and lash toward where the monk Xuanhui stood.

"I need you to answer a question for me," Ouyang Mo said in his usual calm tone, prompting even Binglan to feel a measure of admiration for his self-restraint.

Today, however, they were fortunate. This single-horned black rhinoceros had evidently fought a fierce battle with some other ferocious beast, leaving it severely wounded with one eye blinded. Dazhu and the others had set traps to capture it, and despite its dying struggle, they finally managed to slay it and drag the thousand-jin carcass back.

In truth, the Jiang family consented to, and were even quite enthusiastic about, having a few more allies. However, Jiang Qiuge herself was unwilling, and there was nothing anyone else could do. Who could blame Jiang Qiuge for having such high aptitude for cultivation back then?

Among these four major super families, not only did the masters intermarry, but even their retainers, household servants, guards, soldiers, and maids intermarried as well. It could be said with absolute certainty that by now, the Jin, Wang, Li, and Song families were already bonded as one family to their very bones.

Ziyun was feeding Yuxiang her medicine when with a squeak of the door, Huan'er slipped into the room and quickly shut it tightly. Seeing Ziyun look toward her with eyes full of expectation and deep worry, Huan'er suddenly felt a pang of heartache. She should have told her immediately, yet she couldn't bear to speak.

The rest of them knew very well that they were no match for Xutian, and could only surrender all their Emperor Pills before fleeing into the distance. Emperor Pills could be found again, but if they lost their lives, they would truly be gone forever.
