Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Leaky Little Padded Jacket

Even defective goods can be sold, so long as the seller is not a proper bookstore. Since the owner here was merely a street vendor, he brought it back.

The owner handed the bamboo slip to Xie Yihuang. Xie Yihuang opened it, glanced through it, and then his expression brightened with a smile. "The contents are about everyday health and wellness. It looks like this bamboo slip was originally made for traditional medical self-cultivation."

"I can't make out the writing, but when it was taken out of the factory, I didn't hear them mention what was inside. I thought they ought to..."

It was not that Ancestor Wan Feng could not discern the rank of ordinary beasts. If it were an ordinary high-level beast or even a super beast, he could tell at a glance. But facing the enormous creature sprawled in the canyon of Seven Moon Mountain below, even Ancestor Wan Feng could not make it out.

When Leng Yue, now dressed in a fresh gown, stepped out from behind the screen, Feng Qiye, standing at one side, wore a smile in his eyes and extended a steel-hard palm from beside him. When her delicate hand, after a moment of hesitation, finally fell into his firm grasp, the two met one another's gaze in silent understanding. Affection was growing madly between them.

Ye Tianyu lifted his hand. None of the people from Dragon Gate around him showed fear; only exhilaration shone on their faces. In the distance, many others drew near, and one by one, they encircled the nearly hundred riot police with fierce resolve.

"A gag order? That ruthless?" Ye Tianyu's face showed shock. Though it had merely been issued in secret, he still found such a thing unimaginable.

A dead man? Gu Meng figured that Fu Shaojun's blood ran colder than Situ Xian's. With a touch of malicious amusement, she thought to herself: if Fu Shaojun were to go head-to-head with Situ Xian, who would be the last one standing?

"Very well. I will decide where we buy it. Tomorrow night I am free, and if your health has recovered well enough, you can come with me," Gu Lian finally said.

Yin Rongyu, however, thought nothing of it. Mo Wanlin had merely fainted from fright; there was no need at all to be nervous. The only thing Yin Rongyu worried about was Yu Youjia's injuries.

At that moment, her face was deathly pale and pitiful beyond words. Her mind was in utter chaos, and waves of white power surged wildly through her head. Her expression twisted with pain, so pale it was almost bloodless, and she could barely remain standing.

Gu Lian had no choice but to soften her steps. She stopped, called out for Pei Yueyue to come out, and made it known that she had something to ask.

"I've been stuck in this damned place too long. I want to get out and take a walk," Feiyi Hu said carelessly.

This concerned the iron law of the Gu clan and the overthrow of the existing order. It was easy to imagine that the Gu clan would not yield so readily.

Suddenly, several bursts of energy surged in from all around. They were foreign men like Ba Xingda, and they surrounded the four of them.

Sun Shaozu also felt at ease, for his master had not come again to press him. It seemed the master had more important matters to deal with. Thus Sun Shaozu and Yingchun passed a rather leisurely golden autumn.

The Shou Prefecture tavern could not possibly fit a banquet of one hundred tables, so tables were set up along the nearby streets as well, stretching for dozens of zhang and presenting a magnificent sight. This banquet at the Cold Jade Manor caused a sensation throughout the city. Many common folk came to watch the excitement, and when they saw Li Yihang and the others arrive, they all burst into cheers and praise.

Sha'er stamped down and a crackling blast rang out. Energy surged wildly as his figure shot forward, appearing in an instant before the four of Ren Xiao.

"Lin Fei, you called me here. Is there something important?" Chen Lin asked, looking at Lin Fei.

After all, as one of the candidates for the position of Wind Shadow, he would have to seek help from the daimyo. That was an utter humiliation, and it would have his name, along with Luo Sha's, carved onto the Sand Ninja's monument of shame.

Li Yihang shouted, "Right, you old bastard. Take my palm!" He struck out with all his strength. Though the distance had grown a little greater, the force was undiminished. Gao Deng's right ear rang furiously, while his left ear heard nothing at all; it turned out that his eardrum had already been pierced. No sooner had one palm passed than another came flying in, and he dared not force himself any longer, so he immediately pulled his head down into the sand.

Cheng Dieyi felt a chill in his heart. This fellow's idea was truly ruthless; he meant to set fire to the entire valley and roast those one hundred and fifty thousand people into dried corpses.
