Volume 1, Chapter 45: The Thousand-Gold Formula for Preserving Pregnancy

Regarding the Black Tortoise Formula, when Our Lady of Turtle Spirit discussed her personal affliction, Jiang Xiao immediately recalled how the Black Tortoise met a tragic end due to its excessive sleeping. Thus, he deduced that the flaw of this powerful cultivation technique stemmed precisely from sleeping too much.

Feng Feng guessed that Zhuo Zhaoyun must be filled with regret, perhaps wishing she had kept her true feelings deeply buried in her heart. Had she not acted on impulse back then to pour out her heart, Gu Tingjun might not have distanced himself so far from her.

Although the majority of the inheritances within this secret realm belonged to orthodox prominent sects—which would be of little use to a practitioner of the demon race—there were still some inheritances belonging to the demons to be found here.

"Who is here?" the old man asked indifferently, unable to think of anyone who could be considered a guest in this place.

Li Rizhi walked in the lead, followed by Cheng Zizai and the village head. Along the way, Li Rizhi summoned a few bailiffs, and the group entered the grand prison, proceeding all the way down to the deepest death row.

She changed her clothes and opened the bedroom door, whereupon the beeping sound suddenly ceased. Walking over to the bed, she stared at the laptop resting upon it with a piercing gaze, a mixture of inner conflict and unease churning in the depths of her eyes. After a long moment, she withdrew her gaze and walked outward, leaving the warmth lingering within the room.

Nangong Yaoyao also offered a word to those behind her, and then followed the Blood Fang as they slowly moved forward.

After crippling Mo Huasheng, Chen Xuan flew through the air back to Lian Ru's side, helping the old man up once again. The Prairie-燎-Swords that had previously surrounded Lian Ru hovered around him now, before being instantly recalled and stored away by a wave of his hand.

"Freezing to death is letting him off too easily; I won't allow him to die so simply! It has been a long time since I last had fun, and this man should consider it an honor that he could invite me to personally send him to hell!" Zheng Chenheng was somewhat eager, rubbing his hands in excited anticipation as he strode toward the outside.

A pile of dry firewood and old tree stumps lay abandoned beside the campfire, and a man with silver-streaked sideburns slumped down, leaning his back against an old log.

The attacks of the earth statues were ordinary and could hardly pose a serious threat to Chen Yunfeng. However, the damage inflicted by each of Chen Yunfeng's attacks upon the statues was likewise extremely limited. To completely defeat a statue, one had to attack continuously until reaching the limit of what the statue could endure, causing it to collapse under its own accord.

For a split second, An Mu even considered calling the police if this Tang Dong intended to keep pestering her indefinitely.

While utilizing the surrounding flying cables to parry Chen Feng's strike, the Demon-Mind Star took a single step back, and a gale instantly swept past his flank! Seized by shock, Bida brought his hands together, and amidst the crisscrossing array of flying cables, he instantly trapped Yue Yucheng, who was possessed by the spirit fox.

An old man sat down by the window, and a servant placed a tray of golden-brown millet and meat cakes on the table before him.

Yang Xiuyun had originally planned to take Lin Fan and the others back to their hometown for the Lunar New Year, taking the opportunity to show off and let those relatives who used to look down on her witness her success, dazzling their eyes. However, this idea was vetoed by Lin Ruyuan.

Chen Yunfeng only felt a colossal force violently slam into his chest. He was utterly incapable of dodging, and his intuition told him that no matter how he tried to evade, escape from this attack was impossible.

Ye Wushuang did not reply. Instead, his figure abruptly exploded forward, pointing a single finger directly at the Dragon God. A terrifying sword qi, carrying the might of the Five Elements, swept toward the Dragon God in a crushing vortex of destruction.

"Filthy," Li Si muttered, glancing at the bamboo chair, genuinely feeling a pang of heartache for the garment she was wearing.

Sitting on the sofa, Shen Wenwen looked at An Mu's eager expression and hurriedly pulled her back.

In truth, how could he have known that back when he fell off the cliff, Li Tong and Feng You had already finalized his status as an inner disciple? It was simply that because Li Ning had fallen off the cliff right at that moment, Feng You had not yet had the chance to inform him.

Fang Zong went mad, unleashing a dozen punches in rapid succession in an attempt to blast open the cave, causing the entire mountain to tremble from the force of his blows.

He did not request a single military officer, not even appointing a squad leader from elsewhere; he demanded only ordinary soldiers, while the officers were promoted from the veteran soldiers within his own reconnaissance regiment. He knew that only by doing this could he firmly maintain control over the expanded force of four thousand men.

Yet Li Ning wondered: with Duanmu's unfathomable cultivation, would having a sufficient number of people truly be enough to kill him?

Aisha froze for a moment before realizing that someone was making a joke to cheer her up. The corners of her mouth curved slightly upward, offering a reassuring smile to her companion.

Nevertheless, Jiang Hao's blood-smeared face remained as calm as millennia-old ice, entirely devoid of panic—a composure that was utterly baffling.

Judging from the feedback provided by various officials, public order in all regions was gradually recovering from the ravages of war. Because the government had provided refugees with seeds and farming tools and reallocated unowned farmland—coupled with the vast expanses of desolate, fertile black soil in Liaodong available for reclamation—the ideal of ensuring that those who till the land actually own it had been largely achieved.

He gestured toward Ren Tianfei with his saber, causing Ren Tianfei's face to change with suppressed fury. Li Ning smiled smugly, took two steps back, and withdrew his saber, signaling his intent to watch the battle from the sidelines.

"Ha ha... The people of the world may hunt me down, but you, the Heaven-Covering Demonic Sect, cannot. I trust you aren't foolish enough to go reporting this to the Kunlun Immortal Sect." Jiang Hao burst into laughter.
