Chapter 54: Su Bai's Schedule!
After the cataclysm, the world seemed to have been pressed on the mute button.
Standing at the edge of the towering tree forest, Su Bai gazed at the distant silhouette of the city she once knew, completely cut off from all communications.
She could no longer receive any information from the outside world, and at that moment, Su Bai felt an unprecedented sense of loneliness and isolation.
The Cuigang Safe Zone was no longer accessible, and she had no idea what condition the other safe zones were in.
Instead of dwelling on these matters, she should first figure out how to explore this colossal forest.
As soon as midnight passed, the temperature inside the house inexplicably began to drop. The oppressive heat mysteriously gave way to a lingering chill.
Naturally, among everyone present, Zabuza was the most deeply moved. He never expected that Uchiha Fugaku would actually declare war on the Hidden Mist Village for his sake. He was well aware of the price the Hidden Tian Village would have to pay for going to war with the Hidden Mist Village.
"No, no!" Su Qing struggled fiercely in Ye Xuanli's arms, pressing her hands tightly against her face. She couldn't, she couldn't let Ye Xuanli see what she looked like right now. She simply couldn't.
As the official starting point of this western expedition, Kashgar had been garrisoned by Li Dingguo with sixty thousand troops even before Zhu Youjian's arrival. For two full years, Li Dingguo had been sharpening his weapons and making meticulous preparations.
His bewitching amber eyes slowly closed, and Xia Xi's innocent, smiling face gradually surfaced in his mind.
"What can I do? Can't you see for yourself with your own eyes?" Su Qing's eyes darkened as she looked at Ye Xuanli with utter detachment.
The priest brought his five fingers together, nodded, and touched his left and right shoulders. As the wedding ceremony had just begun, she glanced at the brown wooden pillar—it was precisely a quarter past eleven at night, an uncanny timing, as if it had been meticulously calculated.
Ouyang Yunge's pretty face was filled with fury, and tears of grievance streamed down her face continuously.
Samehada is a giant sword wrapped entirely in bandages, beneath which lies a deep blue blade covered in barbs. This sword possesses a life of its own, capable of absorbing the opponent's chakra during battle and transferring it to its wielder.
Her gaze was clear and earnest, capable of banishing the gloom from anyone's heart upon meeting her eyes. Ji Heng glanced at her, then suddenly unfurled his fan, blocking the space between Jiang Li and himself.
Yan Xiao said with a smile, "Right? Hey—" Just as she uttered a single syllable, her body was suddenly yanked sideways. Staggering, she stumbled directly into a broad and sturdy embrace.
Sweat mixed with tears slipped down his temples. Seeing this, Ouyang Qianlong felt his emotions stirred as well; it seemed he had pushed the man too hard after all, placing Wang Zhong in such an awkward and impossible predicament.
Curved Nange was not in a hurry either. She stood up, picked up an orange at random, put her phone on speaker, and placed it beside her. Listening to the rhythmic ringing tone, she ate the orange segment by segment.
Ever since she learned how to walk, Hanshuang had been sneaking into her alchemy room and tinkering with goodness knows what! Anyway, whenever someone went in to check on her, she would immediately freeze and stop whatever she was doing. So, as time passed, everyone simply stopped paying attention to her.
Not long after, Zhang Rang and his faction hijacked the Emperor, the Prince of Chenliu, the Empress Dowager, and others, escaping the Northern Palace via a secret tunnel.
Alas! This elder brother of his was a total blockhead, completely clueless about romance! Was he destined to remain single forever?
Hua Qingxin released a clone and then transferred her consciousness into it, leaving the physical body resting on the bed as the clone.
However, because she had been tailing Suzaku today, coupled with flirting with that girl Euphemia, she hadn't managed to return in time, thus missing dinner with the Student Council members.
Fortunately, she had already purchased that place and kept the lease active; otherwise, she would truly have nowhere to go at a time like this. She certainly couldn't just return to the An family, could she?
Puffing out her cheeks, Yan Xiao felt all the more that she had acted unreasonably, even harboring a pang of sympathy for Jian Mo.
Furious as he might be, and as much as he scolded, the undeniable fact remained that Gu Dezhao had returned in defeat from his campaign against the bandits, hiding within the county seat.
Qiuxiu kept her head down, saying not a single word. She tried her best to pretend she wasn't jealous, but she failed miserably as large teardrops pattered down continuously.
