It was, after all, truly necessary to cultivate good relations with the Palace of the God of Wealth going forward.

Then Zhao Gongming shifted his tone. "As for how that batch of grey-market goods of yours is to be traced and investigated, that is an internal affair of my Palace of the God of Wealth."

Wei Zhao nodded.

The thread of Qian Liu he had pulled out; the man he had handed over; the goods he had obtained.

Up to this point, he and this matter were even.

Zhao Gongming looked at him, and his tone suddenly turned. "That list in your hands..."

Sure enough, after skirting a stretch of woods, there upon the open grass lay three or four airships hovering about a meter above the ground.

From such discussions alone, one could well see just how great the influence was that Chen Xi's first place in this Dao Discourse Grand Tournament had brought.

After that, the great personages in the hall cast all caution aside, rising one after another to toast Chen An and the others, and likewise met with no refusal.

The great army marched through, leaving no troops stationed in the cities already taken, yet carrying off the military grain stored there. Being close to the front lines, these cities had collected a considerable amount of grain, which eased the army's worries in the rear but slowed their pace somewhat once again.

"How did you find me?" The first to speak was the man with glasses, who raised a gloved hand in white to straighten his spectacles and smiled.

"Meet the strong and grow strong, victorious in every battle!" The will of the Nine Stars blazed in an instant to its utmost. His fist clashed once more with the battle sprite statue. The battle sprite statue shattered utterly.

This old man was indeed a scoundrel through and through, to have cast off his own wife; anyone who said he wasn't clinging to the daughter of a great house would be hard to believe.

"Ha! Thanks so much. Have you eaten?" He walked over to Jiegeng, who sat beside the stone steps, and looked at the meal she had laid out... of the very plainest sort.

Afterward, monsters appeared, and so did modified humans who still retained their sanity, but most of the volunteer soldiers in the nutrient pods had already died during the modification process.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Just as Aoki was about to shake the Ancestral Tree of Life, from outside the Pangu Treasure, a tremendous sound of bombardment against the space of the Pangu Treasure came echoing in from without.

"He had a fever, but it's all right now; he is receiving treatment." As Bo Yehan spoke, he turned his head and looked at Si Yeque with an awkward air.

Gu Jiayin could least bear to hear him talk like that. She had seen it with her own eyes, so why could he still find excuses to absolve himself? Would it not be better to own up to his mistake frankly?

"A repeat of the same mistake is impossible. Why don't you look on the bright side?" Qiu Yihan asked with a serene, unruffled smile.

"I say, you two are an old married couple already. Whatever lovey-dovey nonsense you have to say, can't you say it at home? Must you do it in the office..." Bo Yehan coughed.

Fahua and Lange were at this moment a hundred meters from the Capricorn clan's battle formation. The two stood back to back, ready at any moment to meet the oncoming assaults of the Mountain Leopard clan.

When she saw Fahua and Lange, she too was briefly taken aback; the next moment, she walked over toward the two of them.

He had drawn back only a small amount of flame before his form was utterly drowned by the great mass of fire surging back.

Just then a silver moon rose into the sky, and the space within the Hundun Golden Dipper Formation turned to night in that very moment.

Fu Jian then issued an edict commanding Murong Chui and Yao Chang to drill their troops and horses, making final preparations for the southern campaign against Eastern Jin.

It was not until he saw the familiar handwriting and that signature upon it that he was certain this patient had indeed been diagnosed by him.

Amid the roar, Young Master Ju's figure flickered and charged straight at Mei Ruoxue. Before the crowd could even cry out, they saw Mei Ruoxue across from him lightly raise a hand.

Little did I know that when Sister Xue heard it, she came rushing out and demanded to know what I meant, pointing her finger right in my face. I was so startled by her that I stood there dumbstruck, and only after turning to ask the maid did I learn that Sister Xue had not slept a wink all night either.

Blood welled forth in a gush, and pain came surging like a tide, yet Yue Chuan turned a blind eye to it all. His eyes stared blankly at the ground, and what raced through his mind was still the scene from a moment ago.
