Volume 1, Chapter 49: The Beautiful Teacher, Su Wanwan
Then, the bedroom door was cautiously pushed open a crack.
Seeing that there was no one else besides Xiao Fanchen and Tang Wanyu, Su Wanwan pushed the door open all the way and let the two enter.
Xiao Fanchen familiarly began to look over the English teacher in front of him.
Su Wanwan was twenty-four years old. Although she looked soft and gentle, her figure was quite full and voluptuous.
At this moment, she wore a white shirt on her upper body and a pair of simple suit trousers on her lower body.
"This... how can you say that? I'm just a wanderer of the martial world, and I merely have some acquaintance with Prefect Shen..." Gray Phosphorus still wanted to defend himself.
The owner of this grand mansion was a very powerful and influential figure in the current imperial court—Prince Wei. As mentioned earlier, this noble-status Prince Wei was actually the true Mo Lier, the only son of Mo Li'ai, the former director of the Ghost Mask Bureau.
Of course, the most important thing was that it stated there were no local household registration restrictions, and upon passing the probationary period, one could apply for talent introduction residency.
They were family after all, and it was the eldest grandson's full-month banquet; as long as they dressed appropriately, comfortably, and without losing etiquette in front of others, it would suffice.
"Mr. Nan, speaking of this, does that mean Bi Yungai is completely finished?" Mu Qingchuan casually mentioned.
Opposite King Yun, the burly and robust General Yun, currently in his prime, nodded heavily in agreement with deep emotion.
Fortunately, Lin Dalong's bold and unrestrained personality had helped him make quite a few friends, and in the end, these friends joined forces to protect him and send him safely out of the trial grounds.
He had already guessed that Dai Shi would take action, but he hadn't expected that the moment Duan Tianyi returned, his call would come through.
The outside was reinforced with barbed wire, while the inside resembled a fence made of overlapping layers of sheet metal. It stood about two meters high, making it impossible to see what kind of scene lay behind the fence, even if one jumped.
Listening to him, I could only echo his words in agreement. Seeing me nod, the old man became even more spirited. He went on and on about how they looked up at the sky every day, praying for the deities to show mercy and send down a torrential rain to save all living creatures. He also spoke of how they used various folk rituals to sacrifice to the heavens and pray for rain, begging the divine heavens not to cause a drought, lest people starve to death.
Indeed, what did the members of the Nangong family have to do with the uncle? They were worlds apart, with not even the slightest shred of connection.
Blazing Flame and the other four ghost generals borrowed the power of heavenly spirits to form a giant thunder dragon through the fusion of the five elements. With an immensely forceful momentum, they rapidly charged into the "Gate of Life," leaving everyone unaware of what the final outcome would be.
Yan Liu gave a smile and said to me, "Just right, we can reap the benefits while the snipe and the clam fight." With that, he exchanged a glance with Wang Hong, plotting goodness knows what.
Crack, crack. Amidst the sound of ice condensing, the scorching heat that could roast a person instantly plunged into a freezing cold that could kill one with frost. Such a drastic temperature change caused the Half-Moon Pavilion guards who had rushed from all directions to extinguish the fire to leap back and immediately run far away.
It was not until the Supreme Executive Elder finished speaking that Gu Mu dared to straighten his body and receive the Supreme Executive Token with both hands, stammering, "This disciple Gu Mu will definitely fulfill the mission!" He had originally thought he could decline, but now, not only could he not decline even if he wanted to, but he had no choice left other than to carry it out.
Muyun's movement speed suddenly surged, almost surpassing the wind. Now, one could only see the radiance emanating from Muyun's body, but could no longer tell where his actual physical body was located.
I had long known that this female shaman was difficult to deal with. The so-called White Immortal she mentioned was actually a kind of animal immortal; the deities in Shamanism were all-encompassing, and any animal could cultivate to become an immortal.
Following closely behind them, keeping a quiet distance all the way, was the thin man and his two subordinates whom they had encountered at the entrance of the Great Pyramid.
These people were all bondservants of the Xiao family, and the vast majority of them had been personally promoted by the grandfather after he took charge of the household.
Deep inside the cellar, Zhang Haoran desperately forced himself to maintain a standing posture. He knew that his current physical strength could never hold out for so long, but the one thing he didn't want was for his good friend to see his moment of embarrassment.
