"Is this real? Have you truly achieved enlightenment?"
"If the Twelfth Princess suffers from acclimatization issues in the Tian Tong Kingdom, develops blemishes on her face, and becomes even less attractive, I doubt the lustful Crown Prince would spare her a second glance. If she falls ill only after arriving in the Tian Tong Kingdom, then it will be of no concern to us," Bai Fuling said with a smile.
Zhang Panni woke up groggily. Initially, she felt a pleasant sensation of someone sucking her finger. But when she opened her eyes and saw Lu Qiushi engrossed in sucking her delicate fingers, she felt both embarrassed and furious. Instinctively, she slapped him away.
"But you still haven't told Mother where the queen of the ghost-faced gu came from..." Mu Peilan recalled this matter, a hint of unease lingering in her heart. She always felt that the origin of this thing was highly suspicious and likely not as simple as it seemed.
Ye Feng, who had only just eaten a few steamed buns and hadn't finished a cup of soy milk, turned as pale as if he had eaten a dead rat upon hearing the melodious voice. His face contorted into a grimace.
Bai Fuling froze for a moment. She looked her mother up and down, her gaze finally settling on her abdomen. To her surprise and disbelief, her mother was pregnant! No wonder they were willing to delay their visit until the Mid-Autumn Festival. It was likely because her mother had just become pregnant then and needed rest, making travel unsuitable.
After expelling the venom, the giant insect seemed to have lost much of its vigor. Its once robust body had shrunk to about half its size, its skin dull and lusterless, covered in bumps. Only its strange insect face appeared more contorted and ferocious.
Xiao Ruonan, who had never given a man a second glance, quickly dismissed this absurd and terrifying thought. Then, ignoring everyone's reactions, she unleashed a torrent of scolding.
Bai Fuling smiled and bowed slightly to him from the carriage as a greeting. They sat opposite each other, and for a moment, the carriage was silent, save for the sound of each other's breathing.
Lu Ying naturally did not refuse her. He immediately crouched down, allowing Bai Fuling to rest on his back, then steadied her knees and strode out of the room.
Because they were young, they possessed sufficient capital to strive for the highest martial realm, the Innate realm. Which faction would not want to recruit such a peerless young master?
"My legs are so weak," Long Jianfei said, simultaneously taking the cigarette from the other person's mouth and placing it in his own.
The Heavenly Dragon Temple Master touched his right hand with his left, halting the spread of the red line. He looked at the completely dead snake corpses on the ground and said, "That should be the snake蚯母 mentioned by Gu Du Chang Hen. This thing expels white eggs. I carelessly accepted one, and it transformed into several snake蚯 that burrowed into my hand." He then extended his arm.
The sword, no longer held firmly, was knocked to the ground. Tong Ren narrowly dodged this unexpected attack. Bell, using the airflow generated by the magic detonation, flipped backward and landed, gripping his dagger again before charging into the smoke.
On the other side, Yun Ming charged forward, his Wind Cloud Pure Yang Sword slashing horizontally. Xie Yang Tian's body flickered as he struck out with several palms. Spots of blood fell to the ground, resembling blooming plum blossoms. The two bodies surged forward, leaping into mid-air, their figures intertwined.
Meanwhile, Li Zhichen's chest burned with pain, and he couldn't help but gasp. However, he had no sword to block with and no time to conjure another. Du Hui had already placed his long saber at his throat.
It was too cold; her hands and feet were frozen stiff. If Mu Yichen hadn't held her, she would have truly sunk.
At this moment, the four newcomers gradually woke up. None of them were particularly outstanding; they were all ordinary people. Faced with the sudden change of scenery, they first felt shock, then fear. Some trembled uncontrollably, while others cried, wanting to go home. Not a single one remained composed.
