They didn’t understand why the crazies from Qingshan Miao Village had launched a massive invasion last night, killing the masters stationed in their various villages, and now were making such a big fuss by gathering all the Gu masters from every village here. What could their purpose possibly be?
Once the news spread that she had a birthmark on her face, it was true that she no longer attracted attention. The swarm of admirers that had once surrounded her vanished without a trace.
Sending Yuan Xiu and Yuan Yun to the capital was indeed a risky decision, but Xu Yan was willing to take the gamble. Besides, it wasn’t as if she was putting Yuan Xiu and Yuan Yun in danger; the Yan family had sent some people to accompany them.
And this time, it was love without any impurities—intense and passionate, and it was only growing deeper.
Xiang Wan was close to Xiang Qiaoling, yet Xiang Qiaoling genuinely despised Xiang Wan, a deep-seated hatred that ran through her bones.
Upon hearing Jiao Xun’s words, Xuan Tuo and his master exchanged a knowing glance, and then a hint of understanding crossed their faces. They had guessed something, and under Jiao Xun’s watchful gaze, Xuan Tuo took out the imperial jade seal of the Yanhuang Kingdom from his pocket.

**Chapter 661: Commanded by Heaven, Long Life and Prosperity**
“Ice Block, have you seen that imperial edict anywhere in the room?”
When Li Mo brought breakfast into the courtyard, Ying Bing was seriously examining the freshly washed pants not far away.
At the sound of his voice, her ears inexplicably turned a shade of pink.
She lowered her eyes and shook her head. “Haven’t seen it.”
“Strange, where could it have gone?”
Li Mo looked at her seriously, suspecting that the mischievous Ice Block had hidden it, but he had no proof.
“What’s the big deal? You can just write another one later,” she replied casually.
“Thank you, Auntie!” Lin Yinjia’s gratitude was sincere. In her eyes, the makeup box was nice, but it couldn’t compare to the two heavy gold bracelets—having those meant she and her brother wouldn’t have to worry about money for a long time.
Lingxi felt a pang in her heart. Although she didn’t love Emperor Yong’an, she had to admit that this man was the father of her child.
However, after distancing herself from Huang Xuanling, Liu Xianlong’s eyes flashed with a fierce light, and then he flew away without looking back.
“Is that so?” Pei Changge replied lightly, then waited for Ye Kui to come out.
Hearing Tang Ning was going to punish his wife, Yin Shigu, who had been silent about everything, suddenly began to speak passionately.
The earth had long since changed beyond recognition; mountains were no longer mountains, and rivers were no longer rivers. Trees had turned to charcoal, scattered by a violent force, and rocks had turned to dust, filling the rivers. The beasts and creatures that once inhabited this area had met a tragic end, and the vast land showed no signs of life.
Once, he had inflicted so many wounds on Tang Ning. If every time she stabbed him, it could lessen a bit of his hatred, then he would gladly let her stab him every day.
It wasn’t until Wei Wei sent Wei Mama away that she suddenly came to her senses, rushing to kneel before Wei Wei with a thud, repeatedly knocking her head and crying, “County Princess! Save me! Save me!” Her face was drenched in tears.
“Understood!” Zhao Yun stepped forward, saluted seriously, and spoke loudly. Since Zhou Yu had said this, he needn’t say more.
Liu Bingbing clung to Lin Yifeng, unable to comprehend everything that was happening. Were there really masters in the world like those portrayed in movies?
Only when one becomes truly disabled does one realize how fortunate it is to have two arms. Yu Congbei had somewhat resigned himself to his fate, thinking he would have to wait twenty years to advance to the Tianyuan realm and regrow his left arm. But now, there was an opportunity to restore his severed arm much sooner.
Gu Qing sighed deeply. The journey from the East Sea to Chang’an was long. He opened his backpack to check; three handguns had been disassembled and wrapped in straw and oil paper, preserved well. The road from here to Chang’an would take him through many places, and after years of wandering with his master, Gu Qing had learned the ferocity of those wild beasts.
In the dense forest, several students participating in the assessment sat huddled together, their heads bowed as if discussing something.
Although they encountered a few groups of robbers along the way, upon seeing the formidable presence of Yu Hao and his group, the usual bandits fled in fear, not daring to act recklessly.
Lying in bed, Wang Xingxin looked at his dark feet, poked at them with his hand, and then sniffed, seemingly immune to the stench. He rested his head on his hands and stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.
After eating and drinking their fill, the group continued deeper into the mountains, but after walking a few more miles, they were warned about tigers and black bears, and not even a single wolf was spotted that night.
“Who cares? I reported it to a mentor, and he actually laughed, asking me if anyone died!” Cheng Yue’er cursed, clearly furious.
Xiao Keshou was taken aback. He had thought that the Ming Wang’s kindness must have some ulterior motive, but unexpectedly, it was completely selfless.
He never expected that the Fire Dragon’s strength had reached such a level, possessing three abilities, one of which could suppress the power of fruits. Just one oversight had led to a serious injury.

**Chapter 662: The Efficacy of the Divine Pill**
As the sun rose high in the sky, the Qingyuan Mountain Range was lush and green under the blazing sun, the forest waves rolling.
The two didn’t ride on the cloud; Li Mo held onto Ice Block, walking step by step toward Dan Ding Peak. Such a summer scene, if left unappreciated, would be a great pity.
A gentle breeze occasionally carried a fragrant scent to their noses. Ying Bing basked in the sunlight, her hairpin and hair ornaments sparkling in the light, but they paled in comparison to the brilliance in her eyes, like a proud, aloof divine cat soaking up the sun.
More than a year had passed, and the girl’s appearance hadn’t changed much.
Yet she still remembered how she had kept her distance from others back then.
Zhang Liang glanced at Su Li, thinking that all the energy he had built up over the past few days had just been spent in one go.
“Demon Commander, with just these people, they probably can’t take me down. Aren’t you going to make a move?” Zhang Liang chuckled lightly, his fan flipping up and down, deflecting the various weapons aimed at him and countering the Turkic soldiers across from him.
He saw three men in black slowly raise their katana, their originally blood-red eyes turning purple, and even the hands gripping the swords transformed into a strange purple hue!
Zhang Liang was momentarily stunned, feeling that the other party had a point. Shortly after, he taught the Compassionate Navigation Sword Manual to Hua’er, reminding her not to let it slip out to avoid trouble.
“What? It seems the Dongfang family really deserves to be punished for collaborating with those islanders. Tie She, take care of this guy, then find a place to hide. I’m going to deal with the Dongfang family and those islanders.” With a face full of murderous intent, Ying Jun said this to Tie She before leaving.
Although Li Jinghua didn’t use cruel methods on her, the pain was already evident on Xiao Jiuniang’s face, a deep, profound pain.
Lei Yuanzheng revealed a uniquely styled wallpaper knife in his hand, pushing his thumb to reveal the sharp blade.
In the following days, Cheng Lingzhi took a night shift. The patients in the ward were relatively stable, and there wasn’t much to do at night, so compared to her time in the emergency room, it was much easier. She could even catch a bit of sleep at night and didn’t feel tired at all.
Now, Zhang Liang finally understood why Fan Qinghui couldn’t reach the realm of sword heart clarity. Her feelings for Song Que were only one aspect; the more important reason was her inability to let go of her biases, being too stubborn.
“Alright, everyone just needs to get acquainted. This brother is still injured. Ying Jun, don’t you run a pharmacy? I heard your medical skills are quite good. Can you help this brother get the bullet out?” Long San looked at the brother who had been shot in the arm.
Lu Lei chose brown yarn; they had been out in the wild for days and nights, and this color wouldn’t show dirt easily.
The world began to learn about Atlanta starting from the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
On one side, the battle had just begun, while on the other side, a different scene unfolded. Inside the Geng family’s inner courtyard, sword energy surged like a dragon. A young man in a white robe wielded his sword, unleashing fierce sword dragons toward an elder dressed in a swordfish outfit.
Hua Qianwu quickly opened the door, wearing a light yellow embroidered dress, looking as if she had been trying on clothes in her room.
Earlier, when she returned home, she had dropped a ward in the middle lane, and now that she was going out again, she naturally switched her accessories to scanned ones. After scanning the grass under the red buff, she found no wards, which made things easier. She directly crouched in the grass under the stone figure.
In the S5 version, each hero could only place three wards on the map and couldn’t place more unless the scouting wards expired.
So, for both emotional and logical reasons, Jiang Gongfu had no reason to kill Fang Jiazhen. Of course, if he were the murderer, given his extraordinary status in the Fang family and the convenience of guarding the spirit hall, it would be effortless for him to pull off such tricks.
He was in urgent need of money! The new house had been built, but there were still many details that required investment, and he also had previous debts to repay.

**Chapter 663: The Cold Fairy Learned to Hang Stars**
Little Li, the genius, had now seen a bit of the big world.
But when he heard the words “cooking” come out of Ice Block’s mouth, he couldn’t help but show a look of someone who had never seen the world before.
