Chapter 65: The Yellow Tiger Changes His Mind

The moment she heard the words “black iron,” Xiao Jinxuan’s expression immediately hardened. Throughout the entire Great Zhou, only the personal guards of the Prince of Tai, the Black Armor Guard, ever used this kind of iron for their weapons and armor.

Brought back from the ancestral home? After Ye Wanchen was expelled from the Ye residence following her punishment that day, Wanling had originally intended to let her fend for herself. Given her condition, it seemed impossible for her to ever recover, and there were other matters at the time that distracted Wanling from her. Who would have thought she’d come so far? What truly happened afterward?

Usually able to maintain composure no matter the circumstances, she now lost her temper inside her bedchamber, smashing everything in sight onto the floor. The Worry-Free hairpin was the only object she could use to channel her longing; she never wanted it to leave her side for a moment.

“What you say makes sense, but the item was found in your courtyard. How do you explain that?” Yuan Hao frowned.

“It’s all right.” I smiled sincerely. I had no right to complain; to be so warmly received by them was already more than I could have hoped for.

Seeing that Young Master Ling had gone, the others felt compelled to follow suit; after all, how could they miss the excitement? Many nearby people quickly joined him.

The prince’s words were not a bit exaggerated. The glory displayed before others was bought with untold blood and sweat behind the scenes. “The bones of ten thousand men pave the road to a general’s success”—such words were not false.

Had Guo Shoujing spoken these words earlier, he might have ended up among the corpses outside the accounts, his head lost to his body, left behind to fertilize future crops.

On Friday, November 27, after more than two weeks of training, the Death Courtesan Melisa and four others finally set out for Kyoto City.

The assistant had originally gone to prepare for the big fellow’s departure, but hearing Oubu call, he rushed back in a hurry.

Meanwhile, the Mongol Yuan army in the north was slowly approaching. This war was far grander in scale than Li Heng’s siege; Guangzhou had successfully drawn Boyan’s attention, and its strategic importance now matched Deng Shijie’s.

“All right!” His wife had spoken, and this was a matter of putting everyone’s talents to use. Chen Nan had no choice but to agree.

Xue Youran assigned her to watch over Feng Bufan largely because of Xue Mengyao’s beauty; he hoped to use her to keep Feng Bufan in the Heavenly Snow Sect.

Ordinary people without spiritual power usually lived in ordinary towns or remote places. Thus, when so many powerless, ordinary folk appeared in the famous Ice City’s Caiyuan Pavilion, it was beyond Feng Bufan’s expectations.

After speaking, her left foot suddenly shot out, kicking the burly man right in the temple. The curly-haired man grunted and immediately lost consciousness.

The scene shifted abruptly. After calming himself a bit, Number Three noticed some clues and decisively launched an attack on the spot where Han Xin had just been.

The phone’s ringtone was like a curse tightening around Jin Xiayan. There was no time left to think; for the sake of her rare vacation, she threw caution to the wind.

When the two clashed, Erika shouted, “Mother Yasna is with me!” and activated the secret technique she carried. Instantly, Erika’s power soared to 112 points.

No one had seen anything, so they all turned to look at the fat man, who ignored their stares and walked straight over to Yan Yun, shaking him vigorously.

Master Wang and his retinue quickly responded loudly, their faces beaming with joy and loyalty as they stood watch outside the room.

Unused for some time, Lin Zhen’s armor transformation was employed once more. His body rapidly swelled, forcing one hand free, its claws flashing coldly as he seized the Thunder Snake’s head.

Early spring sunlight was thin and even, filtering through the delicate paper windows and casting its glow on her smooth, satin-like skin.

The beggar drew back his gaze and wiped his face roughly with his filthy sleeve; yet this only smeared the grease from his lips across his entire face, leaving it shining with an unspeakable luster.

Her words were scattered instantly by the fierce mountain winds atop the cliff, smashing against the stone wall and shattering to dust.

What kind of strange martial art was this? It was utterly beyond anything ordinary people could comprehend.

A while later, Jin Feihuan returned excitedly, carrying a large golden spirit pouch on her shoulder and flinging a cloth-wrapped, arm-shaped object she held.

These words rang true even in their own hearts. Qin Yunlang was dead, and as the elders in charge of this generation, if they did nothing, how could they answer to Sword Immortal Palace?

When Zhang Jingyuan arrived at the General’s manor, the room was already crowded with dozens—hundred-household officers, captains, lieutenants, and more.

On a sunny afternoon, Jiao Jiao brought her team to Huo Xiao’s office.

Two groups—inside and outside—began hurling insults, but none dared move. The Yan army cowered, refusing to emerge, while the local militia stood their ground.

His family usually ate coarse sorghum, and during hard times, wild vegetables mixed with wheat bran were not unheard of.

“I’m back.” Ye Guichen stood at the street corner, the weight in his heart finally settling.

Deputy Li was Shen Huaizhou’s confidant; before Shen Huaizhou, he was a loudmouth without restraint.

For example, when a certain servant wanted extra charcoal, Granny Zhang stubbornly refused, insisting that house rules could not be changed lightly.

A hint of disappointment flashed in He Buqu’s eyes—clearly, he had hoped to privately consult Shen Rufeng, but his rank was not high enough.

Gu Sinian and the others stood by the roadside. Before them were three hundred sturdy laborers, and behind them, the city walls of Fengchuan County slowly faded from sight.

“There are two gambling stone masters on Jin Feng’s side, plus me, that makes three. If any of us find a stone with promising appearance but hidden flaws, I’ll advise Luo Wanmei to buy it. Your job is to stop her,” Liu Shi said.
