Chapter 50: Uncle

However, at this very moment, Dark One, standing aside, had no heart to appreciate this so-called tender scene.

"Fated from afar, our zither and xiao could never blend in harmony; you soared to the nine heavens to play amidst the clouds. There are no more passionate souls left in this mortal world, so let the immortal music no longer draw tears of sorrow." What use was it for the beloved to return from the dead? The two of them could ultimately never continue their former romance. Severing sleeves to break with one's soulmate—such resolution and despair simultaneously foretold that the world's most beautiful sounds of zither and xiao would never be played in duet again.

"Not necessarily. Actually, traditional swords do have that appearance," said Master Xin. He was an expert who had been working on accessories for the past few days and happened to look up some reference materials.

After looking around in all directions and hearing the urging for a second time, he finally snapped back to reality, stood up, and joined the bidding.

Jiang Mubai, who had been sitting quietly in his seat all along, smiled faintly at the crowd upon hearing this and slowly stood up.

A burly man let out a shout, leading his many subordinates as they scrambled to their feet, preparing to leave.

"You reckless brute, running your mouth without thinking again," Song Beiqiao said upon hearing Li Xingzhou's latter remark, and cast a meaningful glance at Chief Steward Song. The chief steward immediately withdrew from the arena to check the surroundings for anyone approaching.

Important? Could she possibly be more important than Lady Chuxiu? Qingyi muttered inwardly, though she did not dare to voice it aloud, nor did she dare to speculate wildly about the relationship between that girl Zihan and Shen Yu, leaving her with no choice but to gloomily accept the order.

The Phantom Demon Clan took away the Demon-Seeking Mirror, the Inner Demon Clan obtained the Demon-Shattering Treasure Armor, and the Night Demon Emperor acquired the map of the entire Greater Yin Heavens.

They only knew that within this sprawling castle, this man was God, and also the Satan who controlled their life and death.

"What do you mean 'here I come again'? My foster brother is truly remarkable, no worse than that so-called teacher of yours!" Feng Huizi retorted once more.

The central altar of the Great Yan Sect served as the connecting point between the sect and the Great Yan Holy Land in the Second Heaven.

They swarmed around him with expressions of concern, but without exception, they were met with Ji Tian's cold indifference. He said nothing and simply walked on.

He believed that Shen Ang did not volunteer the information because he feared that achieving too much merit would arouse the suspicion of an official like himself.

Because an outsider like Ye Tian was present, they did not say much, and followed Ye Shuangshuang inside to put all their things away.

Chen Zhongheng wanted to keep it hidden, but that courting-death Shen Ang actually swaggered outside the imperial city to take out that jade pendant and admire it, reportedly laughing so hard he sounded like a butchered pig.

She looked down at the burgeoning peaks beneath her snow-white neck and muttered to herself, "Who says I don't have any?"

This left him completely baffled. Glancing sideways, he suddenly noticed that Xu Jiucheng's expression was as dark and frightening as if it were about to freeze into ice.

Aside from stories of past former lovers, there was much talk about how diligent the young men of the Lu family were, especially Lu Dongshen, who sat in on board meetings at such a tender age.

Ye Shuangshuang originally had no intention of paying attention to her, but upon hearing those words, she turned back with a helpless look.

Huang Lan was distraught. She was married into a wealthy and powerful family, but the idealized life she had imagined fell far short of reality. The matches were unequal; although her father-in-law was somewhat refined, her mother-in-law gave her the cold shoulder at every turn.

Lin Hao frowned, gazing at the dense black fog surging straight up into the nine heavens, and fell deep into contemplation just like the captains of the other teams.

Gu An wanted to follow him out, but looking at the closed door, he felt even worse... because the boss had actually set up some kind of barrier, making it impossible for him to follow.

The Endless Labyrinth was actually a palace—no, a city composed of various palaces, just like an imperial palace! So where would its treasures be hidden?

A mechanical voice rang out, and amidst the surging black energy waves piercing the sky, everyone learned the main quest.

Gu Shan's greatest talent was running to the elders to complain. For instance, over the years, although Yang Yuan had always doted on her immensely, whenever he displeased her even slightly, she would immediately tattletale to the old master.

Ya Jionghe's gaze trembled slightly. Abruptly taking off his heavy cloak, he accurately draped it over Yun Qingmeng's shoulders as Bai Zeyu passed by him.

Therefore, during her speech just now, Tian Pengpeng was reminiscing not only about the original owner's grandmother, but also about her own.

The moment he crouched down, Yin Hanzhao glanced at Wang Ben, who had been assigned to the third lane, directly to his left. This sixteen-year-old boy exerted immense pressure on him.

When S University originally admitted Gu Zhihui, though they were surprised by her choice of major, they had to admit that she was a student so exceptional her mentors were reluctant to let her go.

"With you like this, I cannot rest easy leaving," Qiaowei said, unable to bear leaving. He simply sat quietly to one side, his face filled with worry.

Mu Tian frowned and rebuked sternly in a deep voice, frightening the Gold-Veined Spirit Beast Supreme who had spoken into silence, while the remaining spirit beast supremes exchanged odd, uncertain glances.

Lin Mengya knew that Liu Qingrong might have an engagement with her eldest brother, yet her brother had not even mentioned it.

Then, for any life-and-death crises that might befall An Lingyi at any moment in the future, the two of them would have to face them together. In that case, it was necessary for her to test Su Heng's current strength.

That mass of giant flames swept forth like a fire serpent, and amid the intense heat, it abruptly enveloped Qiaowei's body. A massive wave of heat emanated from within him, his entire body overtaken by the scorching temperature, burning fiercely.

A silver streak of light slashed across the sky, and a bolt of lightning materialized out of thin air, striking the white vortex directly. The white vortex lasted for less than a breath's time before shattering explosively, yet the violent lightning force directly impacted Wang Ke'er's fist.

Just as the atmosphere reached an impasse, Zheng Kang, who happened to be feeling restless inside the Academy of Scholarly Affairs, walked out of the Yintai Gate to receive his father-in-law's memorial and happened to witness this scene.

As for why he believed that Prince Helian and His Highness Prince Mo were truly collaborating, it was because of the Dadabu tribe's ambition.

Qinren Lane, where Guo Ziyi's residence was located, was not far away. South of Wuben Lane was Chongyi Lane, south of that was Changxing Lane, and directly opposite Changxing Lane was Qinren Lane.

Mo Wu originally wanted to say that Tuling's strength was unfathomable to them all, and that as First Elder Zhao Wuxian's disciple, his talent was terrifyingly strong, meaning Feng Ziling might not necessarily win if she faced him. However, Beichuan flared up with anger the moment Zhao Wuxian's name was brought up, and with a cold snort—

The matter had to be resolved one way or another; otherwise, if things escalated to the police station, it would become much more troublesome.

Through a few days of getting along, the two of them were both amazed by the Labrador's intelligence and aware that the Labrador always possessed its own independent thoughts.

At that moment, the place was suddenly engulfed in a white light—spreading everywhere across the fields, so blinding that nothing could be seen clearly, followed by a deafening roar. This was undoubtedly a formidable spell, yet Hong Hao and the others were frozen in place due to Jim's magic. Suddenly, the entire world seemed to stand still.
