Chapter Ninety-Four: How Was the Xiongnu Disaster Resolved?

After Old Geng, Su Chan, and the others had gone beyond Ye Cheng’s sight, Ye Cheng smiled at Commander Qin and said, “Please, Commander Qin. You can tell me the details of this Hunnu affair, and what you plan to do next.”

“Haha, no hurry, no hurry. Let me show you this estate first.”

To Ye Cheng’s surprise...

On the blueprint, the marked area was about two hundred meters long, fifty meters high, and roughly one hundred meters wide.

Hamisu could not help asking. He knew that this mysterious Song Jianfeng was immensely capable—so capable it seemed almost beyond heaven itself. Many things he himself could not accomplish, Song Jianfeng could.

They had long been used to Sun Wukong running to the bodhisattva for help whenever he ran into trouble, so none of them asked any questions and simply turned and left.

After hearing Old Wang’s account, everyone was dumbstruck. With their knowledge, they naturally understood how absurd it was that within these one hundred thousand years the world had passed through two ages of life.

“Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor is too kind. I will certainly convey those words.” As the only quasi-sage present, it was naturally Lantern-Bearer who answered.

Ye Hanzheng raised his brows, neither agreeing nor objecting, and instead deliberately brushed past her shoulder rather than taking the wide corridor.

With one sweep of her hand, Li Lin tossed the manicure set aside. Her fingers danced across the keyboard as she put on her headphones and connected to the e-commerce platform’s manufacturer customer-service line.

Besides, that man, Zhan Wei, had always been indifferent toward her. Unless absolutely necessary, he would not meet her; much less would he take the initiative to bring up seeing her.

The advertisement for the skin-care line of Yuan Sheng Biology had already been finalized and had entered the stage of selecting the spokesperson. This was rare; the usual process was not like this. This collaboration had been Lin Yuan’s own decision.

In addition, the serpent-bodied monster possessed eyes of nearly every kind of energy, yet uniquely lacked any eye of light attribute. In this cosmos of the primary material plane, filled everywhere with the radiant energy of stars, he could not absorb it.

Yet just last night, from the direction of Mentougou, there came a whole night of dull cannon fire. Like a thunderclap splitting the sky, it abruptly shattered that long-accustomed peace and serenity.

Only then did Fan Zeng breathe a little easier, though his heart still lurched uneasily, uneasy as if something terrible were about to happen.

Xiang Yu cradled the object in his hands, his emotions in turmoil, a flood of feelings surging within him, as though he saw the exquisite and otherworldly Yu Ji before him; his heart seemed at once to fly a thousand miles away.

Jin Xian could not help but shake his head at that. Then he slowly walked toward him. When the fierce ghost saw Jin Xian coming, his expression changed several times, but he still stared back with stubborn defiance. Yet Jin Xian paid him no mind. In the younger generation, the only one worthy of his regard was probably Zhan Ye.

The old and the young talked so long that they forgot the passage of time, and only when Song Huizhu and her group also came in did Fang Yi finally stop chatting.

“Deng Yuhao, you’re infuriating me to death.” Miao Xin stamped her feet in place. By the time Deng Yuhao reached the bottom of Ding Xue’s dormitory building, he finally seized Ding Xue’s hand. At that moment, the two stared at each other in silence, both stunned.

“What a line: radiant in life, without regret in death. Pity, what a pity.” Only a faint sigh remained behind.

Shi Qing took a glance. Aside from the box under the bed, everything else was here. Only, many things had been replaced with new ones; the old blankets and quilts had been neatly folded and put away. Those had all been brought all the way from far off when Shi Qing first came to the provincial capital.

No one knew what this Grand Preceptor was thinking, why he had fixated on her in particular. Besides, she studied fortune-telling and drawing lots; she knew nothing at all about alchemy. And yet, Helan Yao was truly formidable. Even after taking a human life in this way, she still looked as though nothing had happened at all. Was this what it meant to be someone in power? Ning Ruxi thought to himself, then quietly followed after her.
