Chapter 60 A Flute Revealed Within the Belly

"Zhu Zhanji, what are you doing running over here?"
A soft voice drifted out from behind the folding screen.
Seeing the Imperial Grandson stand up, Shen Hua quickly rose to her feet as well.
"Mother."
Zhu Zhanji bowed with his hands cupped, and upon seeing this, Shen Hua curtsied respectfully.
Thinking that Shen Hua had failed to show proper deep reverence to the Crown Princess, Luo He was about to step forward to remind her, but was unexpectedly stopped by the Crown Princess: "She comes from the Jianghu; there is no need for such tedious formalities."
Luo He did not—
Beneath that smile, Fang Xuejian caught a hint of a threat, as if it were saying: If you want to come with me, you had better play your part obediently.
The membership of the "Ocean-Embracing Stream" ranked second among the six major schools. While the ranking seemed high, if one were to count the total number of members, even the combined numbers of the other five major schools fell far short of a single "Qi-Practicing Stream."
Intimidated by Fang Xuejian's formidable presence, the city guards stationed by the teleportation array instantly became much more well-behaved, not daring to obstruct him further.
After leaving the Ding residence, Ye Yufan escorted the convoy toward the direction of Qiaojun City. As he thought about completing his mission and rushing to Shenyang City, a surge of excitement welled up within him.
Unlike the heavenly tribulation Liu Mang had imagined, the Yuchen Divine Thunder did not vanish in a flash; instead, it lingered upon Bi Yuntao's defensive barrier, continuously depleting his true qi.
He had removed his mask along the way. When the others nearby caught sight of his appearance and demeanor, a trace of hostility unconsciously arose in their hearts.
A few hours later, the car turned into an estate. The estate was not very large, but it was exceptionally quaint and exquisite, and the standard European architectural style was pleasing to the eye.
Roughly a century later, another martial artist challenged Domain Lord Zhang Junyan. Clearly, no one could have anticipated that Chen Xuan would be so audacious.
Taking the drunkard's spicy strips and mimicking Liu Mang, he tore open the packaging. A fragrance he had never encountered before drifted out, and he had to admit, it was indeed very tempting.
As soon as Hou Chongsheng finished speaking, he immediately whispered for a moment with Luo Pingyang, whom he had grown familiar with over the past half-day. With Wu Yonglin's consent, Luo Pingyang immediately walked off to prepare the new props Hou Chongsheng requested.
"What was that thing?" By now, it seemed everyone except Wu Yonglin knew the truth about that object.
However, Fan Qinghui binding him to her cause under the banner of martial arts righteousness truly placed him in a difficult dilemma. If he did not make a move, the heroes of the world would likely mock him as one of the so-called three great martial arts masters.
Yang Xinyu watched happily in the rearview mirror as the silhouette of the police car gradually faded away. Although he might have managed to escape even without anyone's assistance, all he needed now was a quiet place to properly examine how to consume his spoils of war.
"If it can really turn out the way you said, that would be wonderful..." Guo Qin said with deep worry.
With a slight glance, Altata spotted the dark profound sword hanging from Cain's horse saddle. Raising his arm and pointing directly at Cain, who was questioning them, Altata said, "That's the one, the sword hanging from his horse right there." He recognized the pitch-black, gleaming scabbard at a single glance.
Before long, Eunuch Wang walked in holding a box. He presented the box respectfully, and when Zhu Zhanji opened it, inside lay a golden dragon medallion. Zhu Zhanji bestowed the medallion upon Du Feng with a fresh set of instructions, and then had Eunuch Wang escort Du Feng out first.
It was only then that Du Feng put the pieces together, finally understanding why Peony had acted that way earlier—she had been jealous. Relaxing his grip, he stood up and thought to himself: Sister Yunjing has followed me all this way, unwavering and loyal. Come to think of it, it was because of me that she was poisoned with the Threefold Absolute Powder. Now that she has just regained consciousness, how could I possibly abandon her and leave?
Lin Li scrutinized the baby's face over and over again. Sure enough, there were a few traces of his own features in the brows and eyes.
Naturally, Lin Li had no idea that simply counting the floor tiles in alternating sequences would lead Lin Li to such a biased train of thought.
After all, having a wealthy benefactor backing you up in a game meant you would never run out of equipment and supplies; they certainly wouldn't let such a wonderful opportunity slip by.
