Chapter 91: Sunrise, Overflowing with Boyfriend Charisma

Before dawn at the summit of the Jade Emperor’s Peak, the lone mountain stood beneath howling winds and a shroud of dense mist. Layer upon layer of white cloud blanketed the entire height as though it were smoke.

The crowd remained deathly silent, their spirits sinking lower with every passing second.

“Why isn’t the sun up yet?”

“Could it be overcast, and we won’t be able to see the sunrise?”

“No, please. We climbed all this way, and if we miss the sunrise, that would be awful.”

Su Ming nodded, and a complicated feeling welled up in his heart. He understood that only by doing so could they ensure continued success in the actions to come.

So, after three days of recuperation at the residence in the west of the city, Qin Mu and Daoist Jingwei took several people to Changzhou.

Amid Cui Shu’s laughter, everyone also busied themselves in earnest with preparations to rebuild the gate between realms, though Jing Lin carried himself with a rather superior air.

After a brief hesitation, Yan Xiao decided to try interrogating her first. She had plenty of ways to make people suffer, and she did not believe Jiang Xinrui, who had never endured hardship, could bear it.

Before wine is served, the cork must be pulled and the bottle left to stand for more than ten minutes, so that the fermented substances in the wine may fully react with oxygen, breaking down the various elements in the body of the wine and removing the sediment.

After all, handing the goods over to Zong Shengge here would save them a trip, and she could use the time to make arrangements on this side.

This frightened Liu’s father and the others terribly. Why had she woken up crying? She must not faint again right after waking.

Looking at the charcoal-black braised ribs in the box, Lin Mo secretly steeled herself. Perhaps she was simply overthinking it; the appearance was poor, but the taste might still be good.

Thus, when Master Xue’s gaze fell upon Meng Yu, what he saw was a good child.

When their strength was roughly equal, those three abyssal creatures had been slain with ease. So if it were herself facing those three, what then?

And if I refuse her like this, wouldn’t that be the same as admitting I’m afraid of her? That would be far too unmanly. Besides, he suddenly wanted to see: if she could beat several of them last time, could she really take on dozens now too?

He picked out pork, beef, steak, and a great many other meat dishes, then chose some green vegetables as well—scallions, broccoli, celery, and the like.

Once all this was done, the members of the imperial clan had left, leaving only the old patriarch and Third Uncle. Ye Yulin then invited them to drink. Old Madam Ye returned to the Elegant Courtyard, while Ye Shouxin went to tally the property he had received.

Because there was no proper bar in Bailing Town, there was only a quiet lounge of the sort frequented by middle-aged people; young people did not much care to go there.

So that was it. The reason he had come was also Qian Ruihan. Seeing the bewildered Qian Ruihan in his arms, Young Master Qi thought that if he had not come today, and if the old matriarch had announced her marriage in the next few days, then his entire mission this time would have ended in failure.

Because Liu Yuying was with them, she must have seen or learned of many of the bad things they had done. What she wanted was to make Tao Shanshan and the other woman doubt Liu Yuying, so that once she was called in, she would say everything she knew.

Dongling immediately panicked as well. “That can’t be! Then where could they have gone?” If Old Master Bai and Madam Du had disappeared, she really would not be able to bear the blame for it, after all, they had gone to town to celebrate the opening of her pharmacy.

Huangfu Yun watched the changes in his dantian. That trace of pale gold was gradually assimilating his true energy; before long, his entire dantian would be completely transformed into gold.

If it had not been my mother who came with us today, then even a woman who had lived in Spring City for three or five years would have seriously doubted whether my words could be trusted.

Bai Yizhi came from a family of imperial physicians and, at only eighteen, had already become a vice-director of the Imperial Medical Bureau, enjoying great prestige in Northern Ling.

Especially since it had been a merciless massacre of an entire city, countless Xu Prefecture commoners would flee south to Jiangdong.

“Lily and I made plans for tonight. I’m going back to watch a movie with her.” After saying that, Su Manyue turned away.
