Chapter Ninety-Two: The Ingenious Stratagem of Killing with a Borrowed Blade

They dealt in medicinal herbs. It was understandable if they weren't familiar with some organizations, but to be ignorant of Peach Blossom Valley would truly be strange. After all, Peach Blossom Valley was no ordinary group. Though it was composed of physicians, its network of connections was vast and far-reaching. If Ye Cheng was truly the master of Peach Blossom Valley, then seeking vengeance against him would be nearly impossible.

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes..."

Clearing his throat, he decided to use a relatively polite tone as he inquired about the White Tiger.

Yun Ba couldn't help but be startled. To be honest, he always felt somewhat uneasy in this young man's presence. Although clearly an ordinary person, the sense of intimidation he exuded was substantial and weighty. Could it be that he was destined for an extraordinary future?

Chu Fan looked at the bowl of porridge and swallowed with some difficulty. The grains and water were completely separate; the liquid was clear, and the rice undercooked. Casting a glance at Xiaoxiao, he sighed inwardly.

Only such a scene could fulfill all their beautiful fantasies about Zhou Jing. Yet, in a sudden turn of the camera, their illusions were shattered; for on the screen, Zhou Jing appeared especially busy.

As expected, the phone's wallpaper was a photo of Soo-ji. The fan fumbled nervously as she entered the passcode, her hands shaking so much from excitement that she entered it incorrectly several times before finally unlocking the device.

Not far from Cheng Fei, beneath a stone platform, a disciple of the Xuantian Sect was recording the information of the registrants. Every cultivator participating in the recruitment trials had to check in with him.

He had previously obtained over three thousand strands among the demon clan, then acquired another from Wu Qinghao in the Dragon Burial Nest, and now had gained over a thousand more.

Now, however, the high-grade spirit stones were of little use. To continue cultivating, one would need top-quality pills or some other alternative resources.

"They all say my golden hairpin was stolen by a bird, but I don't believe it. Hmph! Today I came here specifically to find out whether someone is playing tricks and pretending to be a ghost." Li Yanniang's enchanting eyes brimmed with challenge.

"Big Beard, are you alright?" The fox casually loosed another Frost Arrow she had conjured, then rushed to Big Beard's side. Seeing the shattered rock armor on his body, she hurriedly helped him up with all her strength.

Wei Yanlin knew well the deep bond between Chu Ze and Chu Pei. It would be difficult to take any advantage with those two, so he began plotting anew. After all, he was aware that the Chu family was not entirely united.

Si Qian'ai had just gathered her things and was about to leave the room when Li Yaochen suddenly grabbed her wrist and, with a gentle tug, pulled her into his broad embrace.

After a night of mounting tension, the atmosphere finally exploded. The great hall instantly erupted in chaos, with Shangguan Lei and his personal guards flying into a rage, smashing cups and drawing their swords to strike at Jian Heng.

Old Chen exchanged a glance with Old Eagle; no matter what happened, they could not reveal the matter they had originally been discussing.

At last, after selecting four sets of sexy lace lingerie, that awkward and bashful episode came to an end.

Gu Qingwu asked, "Brother Chu Mo, is it? May I ask where you are headed and for what purpose? Perhaps we might be of some assistance." Though wary of Chu Mo, seeing how reluctant Gu Linglin was to part with him, and always doting on her younger sister, Gu Qingwu did not want her to be upset.

Countless people below cheered for their favorite courtesan, boasting that they would pay a thousand or even ten thousand taels of gold for a single night with her.

"Brother Shishan, thank you for letting me win." As Shishan fell off the stage, Qian Ye stood with fists withdrawn, his face modest, showing no arrogance for having defeated Shishan yet again, and demonstrating remarkable poise.

"Master, we cheat in secret; if we don't admit it, no one will ever know. But your cheating is so blatant, it won't work anywhere," Lan Yudie said.
