Chapter 75: Reckless and Unrestrained

"Second Miss, your words are laughable. Boss Su clearly said that this item is no good and might very well bring you disaster, which is why I'm keeping it for now. Rest assured, this thing is priceless, and I would never secretly sell it."
I rolled my eyes, my stomach rumbling endlessly; I had no time to spar with this girl.
"I don't care what your character is like..."
Madam Tao had not expected Xia Chiwan to so brazenly bring up the matter.
While others saw the Fifth Prince as a likely candidate for the crown prince, Lingxi only saw the countdown to her own life.
His lips were so close, his breath so hot that Lin Yijia felt her scalp tingle. Nervously, she clenched her palm and unconsciously nodded.
None could avoid it in time; their hair and clothes were splattered. Without looking closely, they rushed toward a nearby shop.
However, the video was only ten seconds long, and some suspected it was a staged show—a publicity stunt to boost someone's fame.
"Tiger Cavalry!" This time, even the pikemen and heavy infantry behind the cavalry replied in unison, their voices like thunder shaking the heavens.
Now, with him and Madam Wu still here, they could send the third son away. If he made a name for himself out there, while the brothers still shared their bond, then when he and his wife passed on, the third son could help support his two brothers.
But after arriving in Wai Xiangzhou, Princess Liehua's quest for handsome men was no longer as easy as before.
"Ma Chao?" The crowd suddenly exclaimed. At the same time, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu stepped forward.
As a shout to halt rang out, the Sun-Stealing Sword plunged fiercely into the Abyss Lord's heart. Blood gushed like a fountain; the Abyss Lord howled in agony, rolling on the ground. Ling Xuan drew out the Sun-Stealing Sword, slipping away nimbly. He was confident that with such a wound, the Abyss Lord was doomed.
Then, several private messages popped up in the notification bar—sent by Shen Zhu, Zou Ting, and others. Zhang Ning ignored them all, focusing on unlocking the attributes of the third piece of equipment.
"Could it be that I just happened to run into her during those uncomfortable days each month?" Ling Feng felt terribly wronged.
After failing to find the two children, I hurried back to tell the others—they were missing, and no one knew where they had gone. I asked them to help search.
With those words, a streak of red light shot from Chen Han's body, vanishing before Ling Feng could even react.
This was the first time people in the capital had witnessed Jun Qiluo wielding her inner strength. The Battle King bled from the corner of his mouth, swaying unsteadily, yet she remained completely unscathed... How powerful must she be?
Zhang Ning emphasized the words "orphanage," intending to reassure Zhou Mengyun that people met in such places are compassionate. She wanted Zhou Mengyun to feel at ease: though Zou Ting's friend had a complicated background, his character was trustworthy.
However, just after she left the city gates, several men in black suddenly appeared on the road.
Everyone in the private room was preoccupied with their own thoughts, but those experienced in business kept up appearances. The meal was lively and pleasant, with Bing Xue Tang repeatedly taking the initiative to toast the others, reversing the usual roles.
When he learned Tang Yun was a spy and had harmed his royal brother, he was indeed angry, furious, and deeply hurt.
I had Teacher Zhang sit on the bed, then used silver needles to pierce several acupoints. The concept of "opening acupoints" isn't widely known nowadays; in ancient yin-yang practice, acupoints were considered portals on the body, usually closed. Only under the influence of spiritual entities would they open.
Zong Bao spoke softly in my ear, his calm voice starkly out of place amidst the heart-wrenching scene.
