Chapter 36: Unlucky in Love

The Peaceful Inn.

The aroma of the food was rich, and as before, there was always a line of more than a dozen people outside the inn.

Only now, more people were whispering while they ate. Xiang Tian could not help but catch a few snatches of the conversation, and his expression changed at once. He was just about to leave when someone grabbed him and asked in a low voice, “I heard Shopkeeper Su had a fight with her husband?”

“Nonsense. That is not true.”

Xiang Tian left with a stiff expression.

Though he said nothing, everyone understood perfectly well.

...

Wang Feng exchanged a look with Wang Yuyan. Wang Yuyan drew a breath and nodded. Then Wang Feng violently smashed open the submarine hatch and charged out with Bulma in his arms.

So, fearing that the other side would strike again, he hurriedly rolled across the ground and tumbled aside.

Then he cleared his throat and said solemnly, “What matters most is that Jingxuan already has someone in his heart. There is no room for anyone else!” In his own heart, there was only Nian’er, and no one else could ever take that place.

“This time we brought iron shot, five thousand cavalry, and two thousand musketeers, with more than a hundred cannon. I refuse to believe the Qing troops are truly invulnerable to blades and spears.” Li Mu said through gritted teeth.

...

“Dad, then you should rest for a while. I’ll head back first.” Xiang Zuo had said everything he needed to say and asked everything he wanted to ask. It was not proper to linger in the principal’s office any longer, so he simply returned to the security room.

Hearing the booming shells draw nearer, Liu Zongmin dared not delay any longer. At once he led his personal guards and several carriages toward the south gate. Fortunately, Li Yan’s forces were too few to surround Taiyuan City; there were still quite a number of troops to the south, so it was relatively safe.

“Alas! How did I end up with a spirit like you? You have no real ability, and as your master, I know nothing about it at all. I’ve truly become pathetic.” Yi Jianfeng sighed after hearing this.

Wang Feng had the Heavenly Mountain Plum-Picking Hand and the Heavenly Mountain Six-Yang Palm, while the Tortoise Immortal had his own Tortoise School techniques and experience. The two of them traded blows in the air, and for the moment neither could gain the upper hand.

At that moment, Lin Yu merely flicked his wrist lightly, as casual as a meaningless gesture.

“Recently, monsters have appeared in many places and bitten many people to death. The city lord went to investigate,” Shuang’er said.

Right now, the most urgent matter was not revenge against her, but guarding Cheng Ziluo and the demon spirit, and making sure they were safe.

I watched over her for two days, yet she still had not awakened. I went to ask the physician why, and he told me that it was also possible she did not wish to wake up herself.

Yue Miao once again stepped to the door, handed over the elixir, and after a glance the heavenly soldier took it and let her enter the immortal realm.

Outside, the rain still came down in sheets. More than killing anyone, what worried him was where Zhen Xi would go in such weather.

Yu Wushang knew this was Ghost Qin’s full-force strike and did not dare to be careless. Drawing on his recent understanding, he increased the power of the Three-Beat Star Cloud Movement by one level.

“This man truly will never amount to much. He is far, far below Zhang Heng,” Old Ghost Huang said, narrowing his eyes.

Back then, Wenxin had been tricked by Huanmu Meizi into going to England. Later, she met Ziye, who was also from B City. Ziye’s wife, Lan Xin, was a designer. Judging from the approximate timeline, Lan Xin should have been in London during that year’s Fashion Week.

A sword aura carrying a rose blossomed from the Flower Goddess Sword and shot straight toward the gap between two towering trees.

Even so, he did not die, because the wounds were not on his neck, but on his limbs. With a ninja’s vitality, that was enough for him to endure for a long time.

Wang Youfu’s face darkened. It was truly outrageous. It was one thing to use the county lord to pressure him, but now this wretched girl actually dared to question him in public.

Xiao Jin’s sword cut down the black-clad man opposite him. The man raised his long sword to block, and with a sharp clang, the arrow fell to the ground.

Two breathtaking naked bodies were entwined with one another, greedily and lingeringly taking in every inch of the other’s skin.
