Love at First Sight Chapter 87: I Have Already Made Up My Mind

Wen Yueqing climbed reluctantly out of bed and dressed, leaving her hair uncombed—she simply didn’t have the energy, and besides, it was late at night and no one would see her anyway.

Stepping outside, she immediately felt a chill in the air. The midnight cold made her shiver as she followed behind Liu Yi.

“Is His Highness drunk at the Second Prince’s residence?” Wen Yueqing asked as they walked.

“Yes, His Highness was in high spirits tonight and drank a few extra cups,” Liu Yi replied with a smile.

...

“A student of an alchemist?!” Uncle Fu’er was deeply shocked. Though he was only a merchant, he knew that among the batch of medicinal herbs bought by Ye Linghan, some were only used in advanced elixirs.

“That’s not what I meant…” Qin Bai looked helplessly at the earnest young Qin Shou. Compared to the quick-witted Qin Lie and Qin Lin, Qin Shou’s painful childhood had made him withdrawn and straightforward; this so-called ‘simplicity’ often translated into stubbornness and obstinacy.

Having finished, Lin Chen paid no further attention to the two, hurrying over to check the injuries of Hua Shui Rou and Gu Qingyan.

Wei Qing’s headless body wandered aimlessly in midair, carried by the Spectral Warhorse, evoking the image of a headless knight from Western legends. Yet as several Han army ghost soldiers sacrificed their own souls, willingly dissipating to share Wei Qing’s grievous wounds, his head suddenly reappeared, restored in an instant.

On the tea table in the hall sat two cups. Zhao Desheng and another man were seated opposite each other. The man across from him was burly, his face thick with flesh and marked by fierce, triangular eyes—his presence radiated menace; it was clear at a glance he was no ordinary person.

“No!” Ye Linghan’s tightly shut eyes suddenly sprang open. Just now, he had sensed a distinct surge of source energy. Although it lasted only a moment, his acute senses had nonetheless caught it.

However, the Grand Matron of the Prison and the legion’s core members had already exhausted their strength during the ceremony to unseal the white-faced golden nine-tailed fox. They had no power left to besiege Qin Shou. Qin Shou merely sneered and glared, scaring the nearby Fusang monsters into scrambling away in panic.

Everyone was astonished. Had he already achieved first place and still refused to end the test? Did he insist on finding his absolute limit?

The Eight Trigrams diagram gradually burned to ash, swept away by a gust of autumn wind, leaving not a trace behind. Old He Bai, gasping and sweat-soaked, collapsed weakly onto the ground. He wiped his brow and managed a feeble smile, bowing respectfully to Qin Shou.

“To be granted the status of a formal disciple was due to my connection with Sunset Peak, not a display of true strength. It’s best to prove myself,” Ming Xuan said with a smile.

The bandits were shaken to their core, especially the three from within the town—they narrowed their eyes and surged forward without reservation. This Foundation Establishment cultivator was far from ordinary; he had easily struck one of them, causing serious harm. Only Boss Huang could have managed such a feat.

“It’s fine, really, you’re just being yourself,” Hao Lan quickly explained, fearing a punch might come his way.

The golden talisman in hand turned to ashes. The Moon Fox clutched her chest and sat wherever she pleased, utterly unconcerned about her predicament.

Verse after verse echoed, accompanied by an overwhelming surge of primal energy. At that moment, a figure stood resolutely before Ji Cheng; his presence spoke of innate strength and inspired awe in all who witnessed it.

Ye Xiao carefully stowed away the fine hair, intending to use it in the future. After all, anything undetectable by scouting spells had to be extraordinary.

Hao Lan smiled lightly—so the Azure Luan Society did have its uses, not merely assisting him in the Wheel Seal Realm. It seemed they were willing to meddle in his personal affairs as well. This time, it was a timely intervention, providing precisely the help he needed.

From then on, the world was unified, the Five Domain lands fell entirely under the sway of demonic forces. The war between righteous and demonic factions thus drew to a close, with the demonic path emerging in its prime, reigning supreme.
