Chapter 47: The Abyss of the Sea of Desire

As if finding a lifeline, Zhou Zhihan hurriedly stepped away from Jian Tang.

Shen Suinian looked at Jian Tang, who was still in her pajamas, with deep, unfathomable eyes. "Little Begonia, go change your clothes."

Standing beside Shen Suinian, Zhou Zhihan kept his gaze fixed straight ahead, minding his own business, not daring to utter a single word.

Without looking back, having already obtained her answer from Zhou Zhihan, Jian Tang walked back to her room in silence.

Seeming to understand the intentions of Divine Action Unfettered, at this moment, anyone with even a modest family fortune did not hesitate to bring out their treasured elixirs.

Realizing they were in unfamiliar territory, and desiring to play it safe, the Scars of Heaven chose not to flaunt their wealth, appearance, or power, and thus readily went along with the guide's suggestion to figure out a solution.

I had never encountered someone so innocent, pure as a spring in a mountain ravine—so clear that one could see straight to the bottom at a single glance.

The long sword gave a faint hum, and with a great roar, he slashed the giant boulder flat once more. On the side of the stone where a poem was already carved, he swung his sword again.

Within the quiet space, a magnetic and profound voice drifted over, neither abrupt nor flamboyant. Every thread of sound exuded the refined elegance that belonged exclusively to Wei Yefeng. A stack of banknotes fluttered leisurely in his hand, making a rustling sound.

Was she expected to pay her respects in the Empress Dowager's palace later, wearing hairpins that clearly exceeded the rank of a Noble Imperial Consort just to provoke and distress her?

To actually pretend to be at a loss right from the start in order to throw Ninjutsu's thoughts into chaos—one had to admit she was quite daring. However, such a tactical ploy could only be used once; Ninjutsu was not so easily fooled. After all, that fellow was the 'Kansai Wolf'; if he couldn't even see through a petty scheme like this, he would unworthy of the name wolf.

Those hands slowly reached toward her own mother, a smile gracing her face, while tears instinctively welled up in her eyes.

The head of the Enforcement Hall wore a cold and stern expression, ordering a disciple to fetch the identity plaque, fully determined to resolve this matter today.

Beneath that beast's unkempt, tangled hair, a pair of bloodshot eyes glared fixedly at me. I had long since been beaten into terror by him.

When they first encountered the Time-Space Heavenly Emperor, they had not guarded against the Dao-Origin Divine Eye because back then, the Time-Space Heavenly Emperor had not yet revealed his trump card, and no one knew of it.

Suddenly, a sneer echoed from ahead, and simultaneously, chaotic footsteps were frantically closing in on us.

I found Juanjuan's words rather strange and sudden, to the point that I even suspected whether she was secretly trying to drive a wedge between Aunt Mei and me.

"Everyone has seen it, that is an absolute ironclad fact. Those three factions are in deep trouble now, hehe." Someone sneered, anticipating a good show.

Old Man Sao nodded, dashed away, and returned a moment later carrying a figure covered in blood—none other than Li Shancun.

After Juyan left, my responsibilities multiplied. My knees had fully healed, and sometimes Borjigin would order me to deliver her favorite teas and honeyed drinks to Yongshou Palace or the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.

The mention of Cang Qiqi and her younger brother reminded me that I hadn't visited them at the hospital for quite some time.

Suddenly, a dagger materialized in her hand, and the next moment, she lunged at me with a fierce stab.

Furthermore, she had gathered some background information on Mohan from the Xu family. Feng Zhanjue shared too many similarities with Mohan, and she refused to believe that Sun Xiang wouldn't be able to tell.

As Chen Xin walked through the campus wearing a mask, malicious gossip could be heard in every corner, and all of it was about them.

Right now presented a golden opportunity to rack up military merits, and Ma Sanbao certainly didn't want Zhu Di to miss out. With him around, Zhu Di's pacification of the northeast in history might become an effortless task, drastically reducing casualties.

"I won't joke with you anymore. As long as you're living well, that's better than anything else." The words sounded pleasant, but they left a bitter taste in my heart.

"I really like it here." Lin Luo cast her gaze around the restaurant, remembering that her last visit had been a year ago.
