Chapter 32: Mecha Maintenance

“Fine.” Xiao Ningxue lowered her head, looking aggrieved, like a rabbit that had been bullied.

Unable to help himself, Zang Zexin reached out and patted her head.

Xiao Ningxue jolted and nearly struck him.

A flash of murderous intent appeared and vanished. Fortunately, she reacted in time and restrained her instinctive response.

Ability crystal cores, like zombie crystal cores, were located in the brain.

Xiao Ningxue valued her brain above all else.

Xiao Ningxue’s Reaction

Having revealed every last detail of her family’s circumstances before Lin Xiaoguang upon their first meeting, Liang Guo’er felt utterly humiliated and deeply remorseful.

Of course, this was naturally a good thing for him. With such a colossal formation in existence, outsiders might truly be unable to discover that someone here was unlocking the Great Luo Secret Treasury. He could also relax and have some fun with these people.

Judging from the messages sent back by the disciples outside, the enemy Ji Dong was seeking was by no means weak. It was said that quite a few experts had reached the Universe Mirror Realm. Against such a powerful force, the Divine Palace would naturally have to send out its hidden experts, lest some unforeseen accident occur in the end.

Liu Xinyan took the matter in stride. Without Qin Heng’s help, she absolutely would not have been able to enter that cavern dwelling and would have gained nothing. If he helped her enter the dwelling and obtain its inheritance, then she would be the one profiting. It was only right for him to take some of the things he needed.

Ning Xiyue felt as though a ball of fire were pressing against her chest. The moment she opened her mouth, she spat out blood and fainted in Feng Huayin’s arms. Feng Huayin carried her back to her room and immediately sent for Chu Jiangcheng.

It seemed that Ning Xiyue truly was no longer fit to become the Crown Princess. Moreover, Ning Fu was already dead, and the General’s Residence was now nothing more than a scattered mess. Marrying Ning Xiyue would bring Ci’er no benefit whatsoever and would instead cause trouble. It simply was not worth it.

In his dreams, such voices rang out endlessly, while mocking faces and strange gazes swayed before him.

The carriage jolted along the entire way. Although Lin Yichen could see nothing, she was able to determine their direction from the wind and the faint sounds in the background. They were heading into the mountains—and were even circling around. It seemed their captors were extremely wary of them.

Though he had not expended much effort this time, he had still risked exposing his strength. Since he had taken the risk, he naturally had to gain something in return.

His body, which had originally been suspended in midair, suddenly lost its balance and crashed heavily onto the floor of the hall. Black smoke continuously rose from Xiao Moyu, who was completely ensnared in the web of ink, accompanied by the stench of flesh burning.

In those days, both the Fanshi Kingdom and the Boshi Kingdom had sent military formations to attack the tribal lands of the vassal Redwatch Heights. In the end, however, they were soundly beaten by Xuansha and the warriors of the White-Brow Clan. Ever since, they had obediently obeyed Redwatch Heights, and Xuansha had risen to fame because of it.

When he saw me like that, he comforted me, saying that all these things would pass and that there was no need to remain trapped in such emotions.

The Pillar of Holy Light was the final barrier protecting the Imperial Blood. As the Imperial Might gradually faded, its power was diminishing as well, but it was still not something they could break through in a short time. Then, at a certain moment, the radiance of the Pillar of Holy Light suddenly dimmed. Everyone felt as though their attacks had lost their point of impact, striking nothing but empty air.

Ye Linglong thought of something and said, “Brother Moxi, Brother Tianyu is back. Come on, let’s go find them.”

Teacher Li was the first to recover from his shock. Looking at his dazed colleagues and the principal around him, he unconsciously spoke up to ask a question.

“Good brother! I’ll remember you. We’ll meet again if fate allows!” After saying this, the fellow rose and was just about to leave when he happened to run into the old men from the cooks’ unit, who had arrived at dawn to prepare breakfast.

Those who received rewards were not limited to the cultivators. Everyone in the forbidden land benefited from the treasure as well. The Grand Generals of the Four Garrisons, Earl Bolao of the Office of Works, Master Changling, and all the soldiers stationed here were granted appropriate rewards. Everyone rejoiced.
