Chapter 182: You Have Grown Old
Lu Fei shrugged. "No matter what, thank you for saving me. I can do you a favor in return."
Luke pondered for a moment. "You're from the North, aren't you?"
"Yes."
"The Northern Changsheng Mountain Research Group is said to have developed an elixir of immortality. Are you familiar with this matter?"
...
Don't be afraid. You have nothing to fear. Mother will avenge you; she will not let you walk alone in sorrow.
"After all these years, is someone about to become a terrifying presence like the Ten Fiends again?" another Immortal King asked in surprise.
Qin’s mother’s expression remained unchanged, filled with disdain and cold pride. In some ways, Qin Fangbai resembled her quite a bit.
The emperor spoke eloquently in court, sharing his thoughts. Except for Cian, who nodded frequently behind him, most others failed to understand. They were shocked by the emperor’s final decree that even imperial edicts must be reviewed by the National Affairs Consultation Institute. Did their authority surpass that of the emperor? It was simply unbelievable.
The manuscript beneath Ling Miao was all too familiar to Su Yuyang, after all, he was its creator. Now he somewhat regretted making that secret realm too vast and complicated.

Mu Yu: Begging me won’t help. I’m curious though—considering your relationship with Ling Miao, he didn’t even bring you home to meet his parents.
Whenever Yang Hua came to mind, Su Yingmei thought about how, after tomorrow, she would have to agree to start a relationship with him. What kind of life would that be?
I was ecstatic. The nameless elder’s profound mastery of the Dao was willing to guide me—that was the best news. After repeatedly expressing my gratitude, I finally left the cave.
After admiring the candlestick, he turned his gaze toward the large marble statue on the opposite wall.
Ye Chu was worried about Lu Huai’s situation, hardly in the mood for anything else, but Ye Jiarou insisted on coming over to chat idly.
Liu Qingqing stepped forward, eyeing the four—greedy for wine, lust, money, and power—who were linked like a string of beads behind the speeding car, yet collapsed exhausted like little lapdogs to the ground. She smiled at Yun Fei, who had just stepped out of the vehicle.
Everything, absolutely everything, stemmed from this boy—the half-elf youth who was the prime culprit behind the monsters’ infiltration of this realm.
Ye Chu continued walking out, when suddenly her gaze paused and settled upon a man.
Fang Hu was quite the talker. Essentially, he said that everyone was enthusiastic and excellent, unsure who to single out, so they all came to see Your Highness.
Yue Wuyin said nothing, biting her pink lips until they subtly stained with blood. She gazed distantly toward the dusty horizon.

Confident in his own strength, he thought killing Jiang Tian would be as easy as crushing an ant. Yet he was slain by Jiang Tian’s single sword, without even a chance to retaliate. It was utterly pathetic and laughable.
She leaned her head back slightly, her black hair flowing like lotus petals over her knees, presenting a pitiful and delicate image.
Lu Xi instinctively grumbled a complaint. However, despite his grumbling, he genuinely trusted the character of Bishop Anthony and the Great Cathedral members; it seemed unlikely they would blatantly deceive him. So he reluctantly removed the bracelet from his left wrist and handed it over with some reluctance.
That said, who would willingly go back to play the submissive role far from the emperor’s reach? It was merely the inevitable trend, done out of necessity.
Because he often had to accompany Cheng Feng on outings and couldn’t stay fixed at the security post, Yu Biao simply let the manager take his salary directly.
Jiang Lanzhou rolled his eyes, pushed Odu’s face away, then pretended not to hear and smiled brightly at Shentu Youran.
The generals guarding the provinces of Upper Jin, Middle Jin, and Lower Jin remained under the command of Grand General Yelü Guojing, who still defended the frontier of the Liao state, leading two hundred thousand troops.
At the foot of Yutuofeng, in the village of Lüyecun, the veil of heavenly secrets shrouds eternal mysteries; the Healing Pot guards the ten directions of the world, and all heavens unite to vanquish the two divine beings.
