Chapter 59: Sudden Upheaval: She Is Taken into the Prince's Mansion

The next day, Shen Shuyi did not open her eyes until the sun was high in the sky.
She rolled back and forth across the bed, still thinking she was in the Fusang Courtyard.
It was not until she took a clear look at the room's interior that she remembered she was still in the Baixiang Tower. This was the guest chamber where Haitang lived, and she was now the top courtesan of the Baixiang Tower.
That was right, hadn't Lord Pei slept with her last night? He had even snatched away the quilt from her body...
Looking down, she saw the quilt covering her, while Pei Dongzhou was nowhere to be found in the room.

"Yue'er, you..." Liu Shuiyi's words were startled back by the expression of near total despair on Liu Ruyue's face.

Jin Yi's spiritual consciousness probed inward, and he instinctively sensed that the internal injuries of the East Sea Dragon King were far more severe than his physical ones. His inner dragon pearl was dim and lifeless, his meridians were in complete chaos, his immortal essence was splitting and darting about wildly, his five internal organs were displaced, his six bowels were out of balance, and several ribs across his chest were broken. It could simply be described as utterly disastrous.

However, Yun Yi was not having an easy time either. Having just survived a life-or-death battle with his true qi excessively depleted, he was now suddenly subjected to an encirclement, leaving him short of breath and physically drained.

Yun Yi looked at her deeply, his eyes filled with a touching tenderness, yet carrying a steadfast determination that could not be shaken even by the fiercest storms.

For a very long time after that, Hua Qianli deeply regretted his impulsive, meddling hands.

Ignoring the gazes of the crowd, Emperor Constantine walked directly past them, stroking his robe slightly as he sat down in the master seat.

Monica realized all of this a bit too late, as a cruel, bloodthirsty smile had already flashed across the mercenary's face.

Could this still be the younger brother from his memories? Is this the attitude a younger brother should have toward his own flesh-and-blood older brother?

Xueyuan looked at the pastries and couldn't help swallowing her saliva. Under the stern majesty of Mama Xu, she could only close her eyes, choosing out of sight, out of mind.

The principle of stopping and starting this wheelchair was nearly identical, both requiring the control of magic. Yet Susan was an ordinary person incapable of magic; what was to be done about this?

A handsome smile curved the corners of Lin Xuan's mouth. Of course, he had intentionally chosen this carriage after seeing Lin Yili's name on the seat, considering it interest on the payback for that kick this morning.

Had they not met me, the three of them would never have plunged so deeply into this, nor would they have experienced such life-or-death trials.

Unconsciously, Axi Yan recalled her savior from before—the man in white from the Prince Jin's Mansion.

"By the way, when I just arrived, I saw Herrmann coming out from here. What business could he possibly have that forced him to come see you during your rest time?" Fang Li asked feignedly in confusion, his eyes fixed intently on Aelinor's expression, trying to detect any hidden clues.

Hearing this, I was amused; it turned out that this girl simply wanted to fish, yet insisted on claiming the master loved cooking fish.

Through the rearview mirror, Li Siyi ahead caught this scene. She watched quietly with a profound look in her eyes, though she remained silent. After watching for a moment, she turned her head toward the window.

As for the embroidered ball throwing performance, it was purely for entertainment, and Ma Haoshan was meant not to take it seriously, which also served as an implicit rejection of Ma Haoshan's confession.

Yu Fan was a practical man and did not play mind games like others. Hearing what Hui Deyu said, he pondered for a moment, then glanced at the comical, winking expression of Zhuang Shiyun, and decided not to bicker with him.

In an instant, the coalition of humans and demons collided fiercely with the swarm of the Zerg, intertwining into a chaotic melee. The human-demon side excelled in refined skills, while the Zerg triumphed in sheer numbers, plunging the battlefield into darkness and bloodshed for a time.

The next morning, the guild hall opened for business as usual. Although it could not immediately reach the bustling midday crowds, there were plenty of people who believed in the adage that the early bird catches the worm, and many hardworking adventurers began their daily livelihood early in the morning.

To outsiders, these words sounded baffling, but Young Master Yuesheng felt a jolt in his heart, followed by an understanding smile, and said nothing.
