Chapter Ninety: The Final Year

The group soon arrived at the hotel they had booked in advance and settled in. That very night, Yuan Hongyu went ahead to the headquarters they would be visiting the next day to scout the route. At the very least, he wanted to become familiar with the distance and the road conditions along the way, so that nothing would go wrong the next day and delay the trip.

If they were late and failed to register within the required time, they would be expelled directly by the competition committee.

A newcomer who could casually spend several thousand yuan on a whim in the antique market was indeed a rare sight.

Of course, Wei Chi Tianhu believed that even if the shard of the White Tiger Fiend Star were sent to the World-Knows-All Auction House for auction, Xiong Kang would still have a backup plan waiting for him.

After Wang Biao took it, he would still have to gamble on how deep the green at the edge of the opening really ran. Otherwise, if the depth was insufficient and only the visible portion could be seen, then spending more than a million on it would be rather a loss.

Lin Yi still wore that wicked smile on his lips. Hearing Brant's words, he laughed.

There were at least two hundred disciples outside the door, but when Yang Yao spoke, only Luo Changzhong and Mou Shi entered.

Fortunately, Xuantian did not disappoint anyone and refined a ninth-grade elixir. Otherwise, she truly did not know whether she should make a trip to the Alchemy Sect after all.

After a flurry of notification sounds, Qu Bo arrived in the main city. He opened the ranking board and prepared to see how the various masters were progressing in their leveling.

Madam Wang's concerns were confirmed. The news Ye Zichun brought to Yun Xiang was that orders had already been issued from above: the Nationalist troops stationed at Spirit Peak were to withdraw from Spirit Peak City and assemble toward Wusong Ridge.

"Moon God, are we fighting or not? I'm already restricted in movement now, and I expect even my positioning will become difficult in a moment." The player sitting next to Qu Bo in the internet cafe, seeing that Qu Bo remained silent, spoke up to remind him.

Magic elements swirled restlessly, red and blue seeming to clash, yet Night Ling forcibly fused them together by compressing the gap between them.

As soon as those words were spoken, Hua Xiangrong was startled. So this fellow had always liked her; was it really only because of their age difference that he had been too afraid to cross that line?

"Stop hesitating. Try it on. If you think it won't do, then don't buy it, all right?" I was a little anxious.

"Ms. Hao Junqi, do you know what the real reason for my distress is?" Qi Zhengli continued.

"Are you ready?" The saying goes that to catch the thief, first catch the king. This time, they would certainly have to bring down Huangfu Hongxuan.

"Really? Since you and Si Yu have known each other for so long, do you mind if I ask Si Yu about it? Being deceived by my own husband, I feel quite wronged." As Tang Yuxi spoke, she had a servant fetch her phone from upstairs. She was wearing a formal dress today, and her phone had been left in her room.

"You brothers go and discuss it. From today onward, I, this old man, am moving back in. I plan to hold a housewarming banquet, and then invite everyone from the village to come and eat. You three brothers can discuss how to handle it." The old man was a hands-off patriarch; whenever something needed doing, one only had to call out a couple of times.

Hu Weifei saw Ye Kai and a stranger carrying over a box and reached out to take it. It was heavy; by conservative estimate, it had to be worth over a million. It seemed this was indeed a major undertaking.

"I know. I'll tend the fire. By the way, what brings you back today?" Since Lin Meiru got married, she had gradually become someone who only came by when there was something to ask. After Lin Grandma scooped some water from the vat to wash the pot, she filled it again with half a pot of water. Lin Meiru sat by the stove helping to tend the fire, and in the meantime warming herself.

Lady Chu Lan immediately remembered what had happened that day. Indeed, she had casually made that suggestion then, but at the time... at the time, Lan Yu Nuan had told her not to be ridiculous.

"Where did you learn such traitorous nonsense? Is this how your teacher usually speaks to you? I am going to dismiss every one of your teachers! Come back with me!" Peng Yaqian said angrily, stepping forward and reaching to pull Qianqian away.
