Chapter 90: So This Is the Empress Consort

What?! There’s even a frosted door? Well now, it’s got dry and wet separation! How careless of me!

When Su Qingli finished her bath and came out, she found a patch of tape stuck to the door. Was it possible to see inside? Then, she quietly took another piece of tape and stuck it on the inside… Now, with a glance, it was just right! Everything could be seen! She slipped out quietly...

Under the suppression of the power that guarded the heavens, Qi Bai barely managed to withstand the pressure, yet could not break through the mysterious aura enveloping his body.

“After five hundred miles, there are several cities. If you give them up, after you seize them, the households who’ve been robbed will certainly investigate. We must distance this matter from Hongcheng as much as possible. Hongcheng is our base, so it’s best to keep it hidden and unnoticed!” Jiang Fan explained.

Li Qiang’s expression grew colder, and his tone became increasingly severe. “Tianzhen, you’ve disappointed me greatly. No wonder Master Boju imprisoned you.” Such willfulness from an ancient immortal stunned Li Qiang. For the sake of their shared risks at Xinbo Cape, he didn’t wish to fall out with him.

Shen Tingyang saw through Dongjiang’s troubles, which made Huan Zhen very happy. For a student of the Imperial Academy to pay such attention to border affairs was truly rare. But what could he do?

System: You have received a quest, Call of the Corpse Souls, S-grade. Clear the King-level instance, Grave Robber Camp, and slay the abyssal creature within. Class advancement quest—cannot be refused or forgotten.

Nanyang City is the capital of Ninghai Province, one of the nation’s sub-provincial capitals. This transfer was a golden opportunity for Yu Fan to rise higher, ushering him onto the path of departmental leadership.

Such was the truth. In those days, before the appearance of Immortal Emperors or cave-dwelling powerhouses, Yang Lin’s actions were difficult to deduce. Later, as more powerful figures emerged and sects in the ferocious beast forest grew connected, it finally became clear who had done what back then.

This demonic energy is so dense—has it truly condensed into a demon core? As a disciple of the immortal path, even if he secretly practiced demonic techniques, such progress in mere days is impossible. How could it be?

Ye Feng smiled faintly and recounted to Master Zi Xiao all about his marriages and concubines.

Li Gui’s eyes went blank. He only dared pose this question to Huan Zhen after thoroughly pondering his character, never imagining it would provoke such an outcome. Truly, one brings disaster upon oneself.

At the same time, the meeting decided to train militia and form self-defense groups in various tribal villages along the Heilongjiang and Jilin borders.

The paper unfolded—blueprints for a weapon. Landon was familiar with it, common enough in his past life—a heavy sword, one of the twin weapons of Hidden Sword Manor.

Song Xiechang nodded as well. “Fine, but Captain Zhang, you mustn’t go alone. Someone must protect you.” With that, he ordered Company Seventeen’s commander, Liu Xiao, to lead the entire company to guard Zhang Gengqiu and his party.

Liu Ye, wounded by love, no longer gave her heart lightly, but that didn’t mean she was cold and unfeeling. She and Tu Qitang met in conflict, grew familiar through suspicion; perhaps she wasn’t in love with him yet—so far, Tu Qitang was the only one making efforts. Liu Ye herself couldn’t be sure if she might love him in the future.

After all those words, not a single one was what Bai Fuling wanted to hear. Instead, her anger—soothes by the cluster of tender plum blossoms—flared up once more.

Landon looked at Lu Zijing and said, somewhat disgruntled, “Fine, the fussiness is still there. We’ve made up our minds, but when giving orders, there’s still reluctance.”

At present, there weren’t many arquebuses in Muling Pass. With the fifty or so new ones produced later, there were only about 460 in total. Since they were still needed for defending the pass, they couldn’t be given to the scouts for now. For the time being, things would have to remain as they were. When there were more arquebuses in the future, it could be reconsidered.
