Chapter 68 Shameless

Shen Mengli asked with curiosity.

"They praised her and the Heir of Prince Duan as a match made in heaven, calling her resourceful for unexpectedly founding such a unique restaurant as the Food Cauldron Pavilion, a peerless genius in business. They also said she is generous and shares profits with the common people. They blew her up as if she were unique in both heaven and earth. Listening to it from the side gave me secondhand embarrassment."

Shen Mengli picked up a piece of hibiscus cake, ...

The reason she handed that book to Qin Zheng was, firstly, out of fear that if a conflict ever arose between them in the future, what would she do if she got angry and went back? Secondly, she believed that the Thirty-Six Stratagems within it would definitely be of help to Qin Zheng in the future.

Seeing their longing expressions toward the First-Class Guest House, the Heir of Changan Marquis smiled disdainfully in his heart. Who in the capital did not take pride in being able to have a meal at the First-Class Guest House?

The clay figurine at the lead raised its long sword high, and then the clay soldiers behind him instantly raised their weapons with a rustling sound, as if a forest of steel was growing out of the tabletop.

"Everything shall be done according to Master's instructions," the three disciples, including Three-Headed and Five-Wolves Three-Eyes, immediately responded.

And the moment the Heavenly Mystery Xuan Fox's form moved, countless precious swords appeared in the world in an instant, roaring toward the Heavenly Mystery Xuan Fox like a violent storm and driving rain.

Mu Fangyuan thought for a moment, but ultimately did not voice her hope that Qiao Lan could arrange for someone to escort them to the South City Base.

Since the local clinic within a radius of several miles could not cure him, Niu Ben was taken to the county town of HY, but the diagnosis left everyone heartbroken. It was late-stage stomach cancer with severe metastasis. If surgery was performed, it would cost about seventy to eighty thousand and might buy a few more years of life; without surgery, he had about a year and a half left.

Therefore, deep down in her heart, she harbored the same worry as her younger sister—the worry that something might have happened to Qin Ci. After all, when Qin Ci left in such a hurry back then, his demeanor and actions were extremely unusual.

"Hehe, what else do you have to say this time?" Gajeel grinned. Although the blow just now had indeed felt quite uncomfortable, he hadn't been sent flying again after all, had he? If he wasn't sent flying, he had a chance to counterattack.

Therefore, there was no need for any coercion, nor any need to solicit Luoshui's opinion. Once the matter was settled, Luoshui had to obey because she had no other choice. Even if she were to run away, where could she escape under the shadow of two super sects?

The Ancient Tower, Heavenly Dragon, Qingtian, and Exterminating World were all profit-generating industries under Wuming's control, yet Wuming also possessed a massive bottomless pit.

However, compared to Jiang Qi's tall and handsome stature, Cao Cao, who stood less than seven chi tall and had a somewhat unattractive appearance, truly paled significantly in comparison.

How many heaven-defying geniuses had died under heavenly retribution, and how many cultivators had stopped at a certain realm, unable to progress further, waiting to turn into a handful of dust?

"The Law of Stars?" For this unfamiliar law heard for the first time, Qin Ci was completely baffled. But suddenly realizing something, he looked up at the light still continuously converging all around, thinking of the dense, simulated starlight that had previously filled the sky above the Sky-Trapping Abyss, and a flash of inspiration sparked in his mind.

Mu Qiutang pondered for a moment, waved his hand to recall the Xishui Yang Sword, and shot it into another stone tablet once again. After a short while, this stone tablet also evolved into a gate of light, revealing another secret chamber space.
