Volume 1, Chapter 28: The Missing "Weapon of Slaughter"

Beneath the solemn, imposing palace walls, the two sisters walked in silence.
They were nearing the palace gates when Silver Frost finally came running up, panting for breath.
Meng Tingfeng discreetly looked her up and down.
She was dressed exactly as before, and for a moment Meng Tingfeng could not tell where she had hidden it.
What exactly was that bloodless killing weapon?
The Meng family carriage stood alone outside the palace. When the coachman holding the reins saw the two young ladies approaching at an unhurried pace, he finally relaxed.
It seemed that neither young lady had come to any harm. The family head could rest easy now.
He hurried forward to greet them and helped the elder miss into the carriage, but the second miss remained motionless.
“Second Miss…”
Before he could finish speaking, Silver Frost came hurrying over, still—
After buying the materials, Shen Yiyi said she would take me out for hamburgers. She felt that she had grown thinner lately and wanted to put on some weight.
As for Bai Le, people from the other districts might find that question difficult to answer, but to the locals, Bai Le was practically a living King of Hell.
“Don’t worry. There’s nothing seriously wrong with our son. Put your mind at ease.” Ke Yonghua patted his wife on the shoulder and comforted her.
The smoke thinned slightly. Amid the ringing clashes of weapons, the figures of two people emerged—Uchiha Xuan and Uchiha Madara.
When Yu Miao pushed open the door, she found him sitting on the hospital bed, half reclining. He was not asleep; he was holding an iPad, though it was impossible to tell whether he was watching something or playing a game.
If it were not for love, he would never have allowed his proud self to endure such humiliation. Yet it was obvious that no matter how much he did, his partner had not left even the slightest place for him in their heart.

“I’ll do as my master says. I’ll betray the Uchiha clan. Master, please don’t abandon me. I don’t want to be cast aside a second time.” A frail voice rang out, yet beneath its fragility lay a note of resolve.
When Xuan reached the room where Uchiha Tajima was staying, he instinctively glanced inside. Through the crack in the door, he saw his eldest uncle discussing something with two elders. A map lay spread across the table, and they were pointing at various places upon it.
Beneath the brilliant sunlight, the Heavenly Emperor’s towering figure slanted across the polished white-jade platform. The luxuriant paulownia forest stretching below the mountain was lush and vibrant with life, yet his heart held none of the joy one would expect from a bridegroom.
The fragments of the restriction peeled away and collapsed, revealing the entire Guanghan Palace in a new form. It had once been filled with bone-chilling cold, but with the restriction shattered, boundless immortal energy began pouring in without end.
Fuli paused mid-step and frowned. “Penglai?” His voice rose noticeably, and even Penglai could hear the impatience in it.
But he had known for a long time how devious this monster was, not to mention how formidable he was in combat. Simply saying that he wanted to take a look clearly would not work.
“Captain Gu, we found it! We found the dangerous building in the photograph!” Group Leader Wang shouted excitedly over the phone.
After I finished speaking, Wang Dan fell into thought. Then he asked me to leave my phone number and let the two of us go. Before we left, he warned Zhang Xingyu not to try anything clever. Otherwise, he would make sure the two of us regretted it.
I had already made my position clear to her many times: once I had chosen this path, I would never give it up. She had also said repeatedly that she would stop concerning herself with me. But as the days passed, my mother’s longing to hold a grandchild grew stronger with each passing day, and she could not restrain herself any longer. She had come to persuade me again.
Zhang Xingyu hurriedly helped Uncle Jin to his feet, saying, “Don’t be afraid. It means no harm.” But Uncle Jin was in no state to listen. He scrambled away on all fours, fleeing a great distance before hiding behind a tree and watching them warily.
Everyone watched as that supreme expert of the sect leapt into the pool. He did not even have the chance to struggle. It was as though an invisible hand had seized him and slowly dragged him to the bottom. Gradually, he vanished from their sight and never returned.
The duck nodded, then flapped its wings and waddled toward the rear, as though it meant to lead them somewhere.
The Iron Bandit Brigade had already entered the outskirts of the Elven Forest. Along the way, Orion explained the forest, the elven race, and their various customs and traditions. Everyone needed to understand them.
Their expressions matched that of the deputy manor lord. Everyone present wore an expression of profound distress—even Zhu Wangli, who had always been decisive and ruthless, treating the beheading of a man no differently from chopping a radish, showed a trace of regret.
Thinking it was some strange person, Fu Yan intended to continue pretending that nobody was inside the vehicle. Suddenly, however, he heard a familiar voice from outside the door.
Upon hearing Shadow One’s words, everyone felt somewhat reassured. As long as they did not directly clash with an expert like the city lord, there was still hope. Ordinary soldiers were only at the early Gathering Force stage, while these were elite shadows; naturally, they were stronger than common soldiers.

“How utterly laughable! We have never met, you have no old friend to recommend you, you destroyed the trees guarding me, and now you intend to destroy my ancient tree as well. Do you really think I will help you?” After saying this, the Demon Hand turned his head aside and waited for Yin Ling’s answer.
The elderly people in the community, the parents in one’s hometown, one’s relatives and friends—they were all the same. No one could escape the cycle of birth, aging, illness, and death.
The moment Gan Liuting took out the map, he sensed a dangerous presence. Someone had already lain in ambush ahead.
Lin Feng had nothing else to do anyway, so he stayed in the villa and discussed matters with Mo Tian. The plan had originally been proposed by Mo Tian, so Lin Feng naturally had to consult him.
“Have you investigated where Lin Feng’s robot came from?” Old Master Lin was silent for a moment before asking again.
“All right, Sis. I’ll give it to you right away.” Seeing how anxious Yanyu was, Meng Ling realized that the matter was serious. She stopped at once, took a brocade pouch from her bosom, and handed it to Yanyu.
First Platoon Leader Fang Hu stepped out of formation with several spears, accompanied by three soldiers carrying several broadswords each, and walked before the regimental commanders.
Xuanyuan Yu was startled by Yin Ling’s actions. Then he waved the horsetail whisk in his hand a few times and laughed.
“You came to plead for Bald Zhang, didn’t you? There’s really no room for discussion on this matter. He may be sentenced.”
The moment Feihu heard this, his mind buzzed, and he nearly fainted.
He remembered clearly that when his father was still alive, he had spent at least ten thousand taels of silver to purchase this property.
“Damn girl, the guest in Room Three specifically asked for you. Where the hell have you been?” A shrill, spiteful voice rang out. It was not loud, but Wang Qiang still heard it.
“Come downstairs when you’re up. I’ll be waiting for you below. At least be willing to eat.”
The call was from Xia Yan. Feihu hurriedly hung up. He looked around the room and, after making sure he had not left anything behind, turned and walked out.
Since more than a dozen ministers had been arrested at once, the officials at court were thrown into a panic. Having risen to such lofty positions, which minister could claim that everything beneath him was clean? They were all terrified that the emperor’s investigation would eventually reach them.
