Chapter 1862: Tusks

Law Hitesh

Priest Yun laughed out on the cloud. His eyes glowed with a bright light, fixed on the meeting hall in the center of Yao Mountain City.

Yao Mountain City was covered in countless seals and defensive formations, and the hall was surrounded in numberless spell symbols. However, all these defensive means were useless in Priest Yuns eyes. Through the layers of glows and seals, Priest Yun clearly see Fuxi, who sat in the hall.

Fuxi, back then, you ran so fast, each only left a clone to guard the humankind. Had you sensed something already? Shame, what a shame, I should have killed you back then. But, you ran so fast, and the three Pengs were guarded too strictly.

Yet, you actually had the guts to come back, how come? Where did you find your confidence from?

Priest Yun fiddled with the black jade ruyi, smiled scornfully, and said, Youre back, so what? Youre nothing but human beings. Youre wiser than the ordinary people…But Pan Gu world belonged to the powerful ones! frewebnovel.com

Clenching his hands, Priest Yun snapped the jade Ruyi into two, which was a pre-world supreme treasure. Strands of light shone out of the broken ruyi, while the deep cries of the ruyi could be faintly heard.

Priest Yun conveniently threw the broken Ruyi to the earth, then murmured to himself with excitement, It has begun, it has begun…Priest Jun, are you still hiding? You and your three disciples, when are you gonna show your faces? Are you still expecting the tree and the flower to do something? Not to mention their natures, they can barely protect themselves by now, dont you know that?

In Emperor Xuns camp, Emperor Xun was stomping his foot while hysterically growling to a group of elders and clan leaders with wrath. Some of these elders were his families, yet he just pointed at their noses and cursed them one by one. A few branch elders argued slightly, and Emperor Xun directly slapped on their faces!

Emperor Xun screamed, yelled, and ordered his people to figure out a way to kill Ji Hao and Xing Tian, to wash off the burning shame that he suffered when he was flooded away!

The group of speechless people looked at the impregnable Yao Mountain City with a bitter look on their faces.

Yao Mountain Citys defense way scarily strong. No matter how many warriors they sent out, the city would swallow them all. In the past months, which human clan under Emperor Xuns lead didnt suffer a severe loss? Those warriors were just captured alive by Yao Mountain people, but that was still a great loss.

Not to mention the fact that Ji Hao had shown his power earlier. The essence sun fire incinerated the entire Pan Yu world force in a moment. Which one under Emperor Shuns command could possibly hold off such an immense power? Ji Hao was a divine emperor chosen by the world itself, he was able to control the tremendous powers of the world, while every clan leader or elder around Emperor Xun was just an ordinary human being, no matter how strong he was!

Rivaling against the world as a human being, some people could do that indeed, but not the ones around Emperor Xun!

While Emperor Xun was screaming and cursing, a faint dark mist suddenly rose from the bodies of the elders and clan leaders around him. With a devil fire burning in their eyes, these elders and clan leaders turned around and walked straight away without saying a word. Stiffly, they rushed out of the central tent in giant steps, then burst into roars.

In Emperor Xuns camp, the clan leaders, elders, and the bravest and strongest commanders, smartest Maguspriests, and the most outstanding young warriors from each clan all rushed out from their tents and gathered together.

What do you want? Rebellion? Emperor Xun chased behind as he stared at these people who had gathered together and snarled, What are you doing? Come back! Back!

Dragon Mother showed up in midair with Shixin and his brothers. She was wearing a long red dress and a golden crown, holding a golden staff. She looked at Emperor Xun and laughed out loud, Human emperor kid, you just eat and drink and have fun. A useless kid like you should stay out of the important things…Hehe, what can you help with anyway?

Dragon Mother gave a bright shout, then raised her golden staff and pointed at the west and east. Following her moves, the elders and clan leaders who were controlled by devils immediately led all the elites to march to the military camps located in the east and west, and belonged to the colony world nobles.

Emperor Xuns camp was thrown into a chaos. The ordinary warriors didnt know what their leaders were doing, and neither did they know if they should follow up or stay in the camp. At the moment, people shouted, horses screamed, while countless warriors were running about like headless flies.

The chaotic situation of Emperor Xuns camp caught the attention of Ji Haos scouts. They reported step by step, and soon delivered the news to Ji Hao and the other leaders.

Donggong activated his magic mirror, letting it float in the hall. Through the mirror, people saw two forces march out of Emperor Xuns camp. Clearly, even the weakest ones among these warriors were Magus Kings, because they were all flying! After all, only the ones who had achieved the level of or above Magus Kings could fly, but Senior Magi couldnt.

Is Emperor Xun out of his mind? Ji Hao stood up as he looked at the mirror. He carefully observed the expressions on those warriors faces, then shook his head and said, Its not Emperor Xun. Its the Original Devil. What does he want?

The ones who came out are all elites from the clans under Emperor Xuns lead. Fuxi shook his head. He looked calm and serious, without showing any emotion on his face, but his face was glowing with a bright light of thorough understanding. These people are under Original Devils control, as their hearts and spirits have been possessed by devils. But, only the elites were sent out, without the ordinary ones…As same as before, have they started taking out human elites again?

Fuxi raised his head, as black and white mists wove into an enormous pattern of Taiji behind him. The ceiling of the hall suddenly turned transparent, as the black and white mists rose from his eyes to tens of thousands of miles away. The others followed his eyes, and immediately saw Priest Yun and Original Devil in the sky.

Original Devil looked at the hall, bared his teeth, and laughed ferociously.

Priest Yun smiled and slightly lowered his head. Suddenly, his voice could be heard from the hall, Fuxi…do you remember the young man who hunted you in that rainy night? That was a clone of mine. Youre such a survivor. You suffered seventy-two blade strikes in a row, yet you didnt die!

While looking at Priest Yun with a pair of sunken eyes, Fuxi slowly nodded and said, As I thought, all these years, it was you who had been attempting to destroy our wisdom and turn us into wild beasts, over and over again!

Priest Yun smiled at Fuxi and responded, What do you human beings need wisdom for? I just need your strong fertility. I need you to reproduce, to expand…Apart from that, the simpler, the more naive you are, the better…

Sighing slightly, Priest Yun continued in a bland tone, Wisdom, culture, you even wrote books to pass on the civilization…What do you need those for? You eat, drink, sleep, make love, that will be just enough for you. Why do you have to pursue something that is unnecessary?

Shaking his head, Priest Yun said coldly, Priest Jun has been treating you, ant-like people too kindly. Things will naturally be different when I have killed him.

Chapter 1959 See How Anxious You Are

Even though the bronze chimes did not belong to Cai Wenhong, he was the museum curator, so he was happy that such a priceless antique could become a part of the museum collection.

On a personal level, he was not interested in keeping the bronze chimes as a collectors item. After all, it was meaningless for him to have them.

Oh, I see!

Everyone finally wrapped their minds around what happened. Initially, they felt Cai Wenhong was offering too much for the bronze chimes. They felt they could have struck an under-the-table deal with Gu Ning to buy them at a good price if Cai Wenhong wanted them so badly and pretend to auction it off later. However, Cai Wenhong had unexpectedly already done so with Gu Ning. In that case, things worked out for the best.

Haha! Thats perfect. Master Leng felt happy that Gu Ning had read his mind.

Oh yes, Miss Gu. When are you free? asked Cai Wenhong. He was dying to bring the bronze chimes back to the museum so that he could set his heart at ease.

He was not worried that Gu Ning might go back on her word. He simply wanted to check it off his list since the antique experts at the museum were waiting to study it!

I can make arrangements for someone to go to Century City now. After lunch, we can go straight over and deliver the bronze chimes to the museum, replied Gu Ning.

Thats great, replied Cai Wenhong before he made a call and made arrangements on his end as well.

Haha! Just look at you! Why are you so anxious? Jiang Zhongyu felt speechless, so he kept teasing Cai Wenhong. However, he could empathize with Cai Wenhongs situation.

Of course I am anxious. The antique experts at the museum keep chasing me for the bronze chimes. They are really killing me! said Cai Wenhong.

After lunch, everyone parted ways.

Beiying, why dont you hang out at our place when you have time? said Master Xu to Zi Beiying before they left. Even if she was not dating Xu Jinchen yet, he really liked Zi Beiying and hoped that she could end up dating Xu Jinchen one day.

He did not ask about Zi Beiyings family background since he did not care. The Xu family was powerful enough for both of them and did not need political marriages, so any decent girl was good enough.

Sure thing. Although Zi Beiying felt terribly shy, she acknowledged Master Xu courteously.

Master Xu was very warm and friendly to Zi Beiying, but he spoke sternly to Xu Jinchen, Be nice to her. If I hear of you bullying her, I will skin you alive.

Xu Jinchen looked a little annoyed. Did he seem like a bully to his grandfather? However, despite how he felt, he did not dare to argue with his grandfather and simply acknowledged his wishes obediently.

Master Xu finally left with a peace of mind.

After Gu Ning got to the parking lot, she saw Harada Honichi and the others already there sitting in the car, but they had yet to leave and kept their eyes on her car.

Gu Ning watched as Master Leng left before getting into the car.

Since Cai Wenhong did not drive, he took a ride with Gu Ning. Chen Darong also headed to Century City with Gu Ning. He came in a car today, so he drove on his own.

Xu Jinchen and Zi Beiying wanted to hang out in the city, but did not know where to go. Gu Ning told them that she had to personally deliver the bronze chimes to the palace and asked if they were interested in coming.

Zi Beiying agreed right away. She had yet to visit the palace here!

Although this was her homeland, she had moved over to Country J as a child. Other than the language, she did not know much about the country.

Since the Zi family originated from here, they diligently learned their mother tongue and only spoke their mother tongue at home even though they resided in Country J

The moment Gu Ning and the others left, Harada Honichi and the others started the engine and continued following them.

By the time Gu Ning and the others arrived at Century City, Cai Wenhongs men had already reached and were waiting outside Gu Nings estate entrance.

No outsiders or vehicles were permitted entry unless they were accompanied by the property owner or possessed keys, so Cai Wenhongs men could only wait outside for Gu Ning to arrive and let them in.

For this same reason, Harada Honichi and the others were incapable of entering and could only see from outside.

Inside the car, Harada Honichi sat in the backseat along with his disciple who was in his late 20s.

Master, are you really going to snatch the bronze chimes from them? We are outnumbered asked Harada Honichis disciple worriedly.

Dont worry. I made plans. Even if we do not succeed, nothing will happen to us. Everyone will just think it was an accident, replied Harada Honichi.

His disciple stopped talking the moment he heard what Harada Honichi said.

Since a lot of strong people were sent to help with the bronze chimes, the task of moving them was quickly completed before they left.

Gu Ning did not drive and took Chen Darongs car, so Cai Wenhong took his car as well. Xu Jinchen drove Zi Beiying and the others using his car.

On the way to the museum, Xu Jinchen led the cars with the museums transport vehicle driving at the center and Gu Nings car following right behind.

Since Harada Honichi kept following them, Gu Ning was worried that they would move in on them while they were on the road. She especially reminded Xu Jinchen and the others to be vigilant before they went on their way.

Gu Ning did not tell them directly about Harada Honichi following them. Even without Harada Honichi tailing them, they ought to be careful and prepare for the worst!

Gu Ning contemplated while she sat in the car without driving. Where would Harada Honichi attack them if he wanted to?

Some people liked to do it with fewer people around while others might prefer doing it in a crowded place.

If Harada Honichi preferred to launch an attack in a less crowded place, a few places came to Gu Nings mind.

The southern and eastern districts were some distance apart, and there were some stretches of roads surrounded by wilderness. No other humans could be seen as the cars drove by.

If Harada Honichi preferred to attack in a crowded place, there were countless places he could do it. Gu Ning thought if he wanted to attack them, he would do it in the suburbs while they were on the road. It was simply easier to make an escape after causing such a commotion while stealing the bronze chimes.

Gu Nings speculation came true when they were about 100 miles away from the bridge that was approaching. She saw a vision of a huge truck which suddenly ran into a lorry. The lorry got thrown off the bridge and fell into the water. The images cut off.

The lorry that fell off the bridge happened to be the museums transport vehicle. The culprit that ran them over was close behind them.

Curator Cai, call your men and tell them to pull up immediately, said Gu Ning in a firm tone.

EndlessFantasy Translation EndlessFantasy Translation

He had never obtained it, and perhaps he did not have to endure the pain of losing it. However, it was not an easy thing to silently endure so many years of suffering.

You in green clothes, softly in my heart, for the sake of you, I have been pondering until now…

Lan Xiu raised his head and drank up the wine in his glass. He even swallowed the sour and bitter pain in his throat. In the distance, he did not know which corner, but he could vaguely hear such a familiar melody

If this chandelier falls down, perhaps I will no longer exist. Even if you dont love me, you dont need to be separated. If at this moment I have a serious dementia, I dont need to be loved at all. I will always dream in bed and never be sad for the rest of my life…

Lan Xius eyes suddenly heated up.

He was most afraid of this moment. The person he loved was right in front of him, but he couldnt do anything about it. He couldnt have it, and the regret would last for a long time.

Lan Xiu could not guarantee that he would be able to forget this unspeakable feeling in the years to come. However, at this moment, he was really sad, even though this was not just a one-time thing for him.

Your words are no comfort to me. Liuyun, every time I hear something like this, I feel even worse. However, as long as you live well, its fine. Initially, I couldnt bear to see Ah Ye like that, but seeing that youre living well, I suddenly wanted to be a little selfish. Perhaps letting you stay by Qi Leis side forever was the best choice. At least, youve cried and laughed for Fujiwara, and youve been in pain, but Qi lei can bring you satisfaction and happiness. Qi Lei can make you happier than Ah Ye. I didnt really believe in this in the past, but now, I believe in it.

Lan Xius low voice came through, and a faint light flashed in his slightly warm eyes, So, for the project with Mr. Ge, lets not do this anymore. I hope that you can live the life you want without any pressure. Dont feel that you owe anything. Youve already done very well. Youve made a lot of contributions to the company over the years. Without you, I, Lan Xiu, would probably have failed miserably a long time ago. Others might not understand my experience, but you understand it the best. Back then, when the company was caught up in the economic crisis and the internal betrayal of Manager Chen, I was already mentally and physically exhausted. If it werent for you, I would have collapsed a long time ago. freewebnvel.cm

Dont underestimate yourself. Youve always been very strong. At least, in my eyes, youre a good partner. These years, even without me, youve done well. Perhaps, if you didnt consider me, you could have done even better. Dongfang Liuyun replied in a low voice.

Liuyun, you overestimate me. In fact, many people overestimate me. To be honest, with the situation back then, if it wasnt for you and Uncle Dongfangs encouragement, my brother and I might not have been able to go on like this. Even if older brother met with misfortune now, I think that he must be very grateful to you in his heart.

So, seeing that youve trapped yourself for so many years because of him, he wouldnt bear it.

The biggest mistake I made in my life was probably implicating Lan Qi back then. He didnt have to bear all this in the first place. I used him. If I hadnt asked him to accompany me back then, I think I wouldnt have suffered all this. Its also my fault for not thinking properly. I knew that I was in a mess with Fujiwara back then, but I still messed things up. I harmed Lan Qi for nothing.

I blame Fujiwara for letting go too quickly. If he had held on a little longer to pull Lan Qi, Lan Qi wouldnt have fallen like that. She would definitely have been saved. But then I thought about it. At that time, it wasnt up to me to decide whether or not to let go. Everyone was exhausted. When I think about that, I no longer hate Fujiwara. I should hate myself even more.

This was the first time Dongfang Liuyun had mentioned that incident. Fujiwara and Dongfang Liuyun did not want to talk about it either.

Lan Xiu only remembered that when he saw Dongfang Liuyun hugging the bloodied Lan Qi and kneeling in the rubble, his heart was also bleeding.

I spent so many years to let these things settle. Every time I think of that incident, I feel more guilty towards Lan Qi. As long as Im alive, Im fine. If Im dead, thered be nothing left.

Life and death are determined by fate. Older brother has long entered the cycle of reincarnation. Ah Ye was also heartbroken over this matter. I think that if he could turn back time, he would rather be the one who fell than hope that it was Lan Qi. Now, what else could he do? Everyones been suffering and enduring.

Ive already made it clear to him that between him and I, its fated that were not meant to be together. Its impossible for us to go back to how we were. I heard that theres a Miss Inoue over there who has always been very fond of him. I think that someone that the Fujiwara family has taken a liking to should be pretty good as well. Let him finish his business here as soon as possible and go back. I dont know how many years he has left. I keep feeling that a persons life is very short. Its time for us to treat our feelings fairly, including you, Lan Xiu.

As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, she poured herself another glass of wine.

How did it get to me again? Werent we talking about you? You know that Im anti-marriage too, Ive said it before. Lan Xiu smiled.

Its impossible for you to not get married for the rest of your life, right? I remember that there was a university teacher who was quite good-looking and very kind. Didnt she have a crush on you for a long time? Why didnt you consider her? Dongfang Liuyun looked up at Lan Xiu and asked calmly.

She just got married to a male teacher in her school last month. How do you want me to consider it? Lan Xiu smiled helplessly.

Thats because she waited on you for too long, so she gave up. Waiting is a very torturous thing. Not everyone can be consistent. Take me for example. No matter how much I had hoped for Fujiwara, I still let him go and married Qi Lei.

Dongfang Liuyun drank a glass of wine and took a deep breath. Thats all my feelings were. This was as far as I could go.

However, I dont want to just stop here with you, Dongfang Liuyun. You know best what you took from me, I definitely wont let this go.

As Dongfang Liuyun finished speaking, a deep and firm voice sounded. A wild and cold fragrance assaulted them. Without even looking, Dongfang Liuyun could already guess who it was.

Lan Xiu subconsciously turned his head to look. Only then did he realize that Fujiwara was standing upright under the tree beside them. The cold wind constantly blew against the corner of his clothes, but he was like a stone statue, standing motionlessly, he did not know how long he had stayed there…

Chapter 1958 Focus on Things That Matter

Cai Wenhong simply smiled without joining in the conversation. He was still busy bidding for the bronze chimes and did not have time to explain the deal he had struck with Gu Ning. Gu Ning had already agreed to sell the bronze chimes to the Palace Museum, so the auction was just for show.

Even if he was free, he would not choose to explain now when there were bystanders around. It would only cause trouble if anyone overheard this since it was considered fraud. Both Xiangyun Antique-store and the museum would end up in hot water if anyone found out.

Gu Ning did not explain either.

By the time the price reached 8.5 billion yuan, no one else vied for the bronze chimes. The auction price was far higher than expected.

As expected, Cai Wenhong won the bid. No matter how much he offered for the bronze chimes, he only had to pay Gu Ning 5 billion yuan, so he was unafraid of offering an astronomical sum.

A lot of people were astonished by its final price. Most of them felt it would not go higher than 7 billion yuan.

Everyone looked at Gu Ning. Some looked at her with admiration while others looked at her with jealousy. They felt it was easy money for Gu Ning.

The most expensive item that got auctioned off this morning was only worth about 5 billion yuan, so the difference in price with the bronze chimes was simply jaw dropping.

After the bronze chimes got auctioned off, the first half of the auction came to an end. The second half of the auction would commence at 1:30 pm.

Everyone naturally spent their free time having lunch, as the Huarong Auction House had provided lunch for them.

Since they were able to earn a lot of money for each auction, the auction house had no trouble providing lunch for its guests. And if the food did not suit the guests tastes, they were welcome to go out for lunch.

Gu Ning, Master Leng, and the others did not plan on coming back for the second half of the auction, so they headed off together for lunch.

Among their lunch party was Gu Ning, Master Leng, Master Xu, Jiang Zhongyu, Cai Wenhong, Chen Darong, Xu Jinchen, and Zi Beiying.

Before they left, Gu Ning and Cai Wenhong went backstage to complete some paperwork. However, the sale could not be completed yet without the bronze chimes physically present.

The auction house usually earned a commission through the auctions. The bronze chimes were auctioned at 8.5 billion yuan, so the fees for the transaction were high. However, since Huarong Auction House was operated by the government and Cai Wenhong was the vice director of the National Cultural Heritage Administration, the fees could be waived easily.

Not all auction item commissions were eligible for the waiver. However, the deal between Gu Ning and Cai Wenhong certainly qualified. frewenovelcom

After completing the paperwork, they left for lunch together.

Everyone felt even more confident that Gu Ning had close ties with those bigshots when Gu Ning left with Master Leng and the others.

…

Master Yuan and Yuan Yilin were not going to attend the second half of the auction either. So after getting in the car, Master Yuan said to Yuan Yilin sternly, Whats going on between you and Gu Nin?

Yuan Yilin did not dare to lie, so she came clean about what happened at school and the conflict between Gu Ning and Yuan Shuyan. She even told him about how she warned Gu Ning without embellishing the story.

How could she do that? Is it possible for the Yuan and Rong families to be linked by marriage? Go tell Yuan Shuyan to sever ties with Rong Zechen, said Master Yuan reprovingly. Their families were at odds with each other, so Master Yuan felt furious to hear that a girl from their family had fallen for a boy from the Rong clan and caused so much trouble.

Although Yuan Shuyan was from a collateral branch, she was still a part of the family and they were on the same boat.

I will, replied Yuan Yilin.

Yuan Yilin had scolded Yuan Shuyan for this previously. Yuan Shuyan simply could not stop herself since she was in love with him. Nothing could stop people when they were in love even if the object of their love was not interested at all.

Yuan Shuyan knew it was impossible between her and Rong Zechen, so she did not tell anyone about it. However, it was an open secret, so it was genuinely an embarrassment for the family with all this gossip flying in the air.

Also, your feud with Gu Ning ends now. You have to focus on things that matter, warned Master Yuan yet again.

Despite having something to do with these incidents, he did not feel Gu Ning was at fault, so Master Yuan did not blame Gu Ning for them. From his perspective, Gu Ning was an insignificant small fry after all. However, it was impossible for him to take a liking to Gu Ning now.

…

Gu Ning and the others did not venture too far for lunch and instead settled for a nearby restaurant.

Shortly after they left the auction house, Gu Ning noticed that they were being followed.

Gu Ning was driving, so it was inconvenient for her to turn and check, but she was certain it had something to do with the bronze chimes.

Although Cai Wenhong had already successfully bought the item through the auction, it did not mean everyone was ready to give up on them! It was especially true for the famous musician from Country R, Harada Honichi, the very same man who abducted Chen Darong for the sake of the bronze chimes.

Gu Ning was not 100% sure it was him. It could have been anyone else, but her instincts told her it was Harada Honichi as the people from his country tended to be more unreasonable.

They arrived at the restaurant roughly ten minutes later and the tail followed them.

After parking the car, Gu Ning could see who they were.

Gu Nings gut instinct was right. Harada Honichi was genuinely on their tail.

Gu Ning narrowed her eyes. Even though she had yet to look them up to settle the feud, they had already come knocking on her door. However, now was not the time to teach them a lesson. Also, they had not done anything yet, so she went about her business normally.

Xu Jinchen had already booked a private room ahead of time, so they went right in when they got there.

Gu Ning looked at them cautiously every now and then. She saw Harada Honichi and three other men following them into the restaurant. They also asked for a private room, but it was some distance from theirs.

After they arrived at the private room, the waiter took their order and left. Gu Ning finally said, Grandpa Leng, Grandpa Xu, Grandpa Jiang, I have something to tell you. It was crowded at the auction hall, so I couldnt get to it. Now is the perfect time to tell you!

What? asked Master Leng and the others curiously.

I already struck a deal with Curator Cai the day the bronze chimes authenticity got verified. I already sold it to the Palace Museum for 5 billion yuan. However, the auction went on as per normal so that I could do some marketing for Xiangyun Antique-store, said Gu Ning.

All of them were shocked by the news.

Hehe! Otherwise, I wouldnt have auctioned for them at such a high price! said Cai Wenhong as he smiled.

Chapter 1906 — Leaving in a Huff

EndlessFantasy Translation EndlessFantasy Translation

After meeting Dongfang Shuman, the relationship between Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun seemed to have become a little more harmonious. Perhaps it was because this knot in their hearts had been opened, and the two of them got along more naturally than before.

Song Siting was the same. Ever since Dongfang Liuyun showed her those documents that night, she could clearly feel that she seemed to have become much more reserved and calm, over the past few days, she had already gotten her assistant to arrange the matters of the firm. She could be considered to have left the industry and did not personally handle many important cases.

Dongfang Liuyun returned to Tanshan Villa area to check on Song Siting. The results of the reexamination were out. Dongfang Liuyun heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that she had recovered well.

She had stayed at Tanshan Villa area for the past two days. Qi Lei was very busy and had gone to City C on a business trip. It was very boring for Dongfang Liuyun to stay home alone, so she simply returned to Tanshan Villa area.

On this day, Dongfang Liuyun got off work late as usual. She wanted to buy some supper and rush back to Tanshan Villa area. Unexpectedly, when she had just left the company to find her car, she met Lan Xiu who had been waiting for a long time.

Lan Xiu sat in the drivers seat, rolled down the car window, and waved at Dongfang Liuyun.

Dongfang Liuyun frowned, thought for a moment, and then walked over.

Get in the car, have a few drinks with me, Lan Xiu said in a low voice. frewbnovel.com

Dongfang Liuyun did as she was told, and sat in the front passenger seat.

The two did not go to any high-end restaurant. Instead, they went to the food stall next to Debao House, which Dongfang Liuyun often went to, where there were three trees.

They ordered two dozen cold beers and some side dishes to go with the wine.

The two of them poured themselves a glass of wine and downed it.

Its been a while since weve gathered together like this. Youve been looking good recently, so you must be doing pretty well. I heard that Grandmother has met Qi Lei. She must be very satisfied, right? Lan Xiu spoke with concern as he poured Dongfang Liuyun a glass of wine.

Theres nothing I can do if shes not satisfied. After all, things are already like this. You, on the other hand, dont seem to be in a good state. Dont worry too much about Mr. Ges matter. Ill take care of it.

Dongfang Liuyun frowned and took a sip of wine as she said calmly.

I know that youve been worrying yourself over Mr. Ges matter recently. Dont worry, Ive decided to give up on this plan. If we withdraw now, even though well suffer some losses, its still better than getting stuck later.

As Lan Xiu said this, he took a deep breath and paused. Ive thought about it. Even if we withdraw now, we wont lose too much in the end. We can look for other partners that weve talked about better before.

But if we withdraw now, those partners will take the opportunity to suppress us. Weve made too many preparations and poured too much effort into the cooperation between our two companies. I dont want to give up.

This happens all the time when it comes to doing business, its not that bad.

Lan Xiu was rather at ease about it.

Im really not convinced for us to have been stuck here. Lets think of a way first. At the same time, well also see if there are any other suitable companies. Its good to make some preparations in advance.

Dongfang Liuyun raised her hand and rubbed the space between her brows, Qi Lei did find Mr. Ges information and address for me before. Ive also called him, but he didnt pick up. This matter is clearly meant to be left unattended. This project is being delayed. Its not good for our reputation either. Well also the main party taking responsibility.

You went to look for Ah Ye?

Speaking of this, Lan Xiu suddenly could not help but ask.

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun paused for a moment and did not try to hide it. Didnt you say that sooner or later, wed have to meet?

Yes, hes much more haggard than before. Every time I look at him, I cant bear to see him. Lan Qis matter has long passed. I know Ah Ye very well. If he wasnt faced with a tough problem back then, I believe that he wouldnt have given up on Lan Qi. You have the same character as him. When you encounter things, youre probably not the kind of person who would try to explain it. But usually, people like that suffer themselves. Do you understand?

Even if there was a problem, it still so close yet so far apart. Im a little resigned to my fate. Ive been wandering around these past few years. Im very clear about my own path and the life Ive been looking forward to. Ive never dared to think about it. But now, at least Im satisfied with the current situation. If all of you really want to hear that answer, then I have to admit that Ive fallen in love with him.

When Dongfang Liuyun said this, Lan Xiu was stunned for a moment, but he did not find it strange at all. It was as if he also knew that it was only a matter of time.

When you told me that such a day would come, I never doubted it. I also told you that I always thought that you would choose between me, Fujiwara, or Lan Qi in the future. But I never thought that it would be beyond us.

When Lan Xiu said this, his tone naturally carried some lament.

I used to think that I understood you. I also felt that Qi lei might not have the qualifications to match you with any of us. After all, Qi Leis name was just for show. To be honest, I was really unconvinced at that time. However, after seeing your change, I have to admit that Qi Lei is indeed stronger than us. At least he can make you happy and take on everything for you.

At this moment, Lan Xiu did not have any prejudice against Qi Lei. From the looks of it, Dongfang Liuyun would never belong to him, Lan Xiu. As long as she was happy, he was willing to fulfill her wish.

Dongfang Liuyun lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, Thank you, Lan Xiu. All these years, if it werent for you, I would have been very lonely. I cherish our friendship. No matter what, I hope that we can find a place in each others hearts to hold our friendship. In my eyes, love is not the only thing that is so important. At any time, I would also go through fire and water for you, my good friend.

With those words of yours, Im satisfied. Come, lets have a drink.

Lan Xiu raised his glass to her, and Dongfang Liuyun nodded with a smile. Weve known each other for more than twenty years, and its impossible for me to forget my friends. Youre the most colorful stroke of my life.

Her relieved smile was apologetic, and it was reflected in his eyes. Lan Xiu suddenly understood that perhaps all of these decisions were worth it.

Why had he been thinking about her all these years? Why had he been so careful all these years, afraid that he would disturb her? Every night, in the dead of night, he would be heartbroken by the feeling of missing her…

That was because he had loved her so deeply…

Chapter 1861: Priest Yun Takes An Action

Chapter 1861: Priest Yun Takes An Action

Law Hitesh

Pan Gu world, outside the gate of the heaven…

Priest Yun and Original Devil trod on a cloud, looking down at the vast Pan Gu Motherland.

The front gate of the heaven was connected with Yao Mountain City by a colorful beam of light. Countless divine warriors and commanders had been walking in or out of the gate, but none of them noticed Priest Yun and Original Devil. They stood right before the gate, but were isolated from the world by a strange power.

What a wonderful world! Priest Yun sighed slightly. He spread his arms to embrace the world while saying, Fantastic creatures! Especially human beings! Great nature, human beings are truly masterpieces, incomparable masterpieces.

Ive traveled to countless worlds around Pan Gu world. Ive seen the creatures in those worlds. They all have weaknesses. Bodies, souls, wisdom, personalities…Or, the most basic bloodlines. None of them was perfect. Priest Yun laughed, But human beings… are perfect.

Newborn human beings are weak, fragile, without sharp claws, teeth, scales, or feathers, that even a tiny poisonous bug can kill a human baby. In the babyhood, human beings are confused too. They know nothing about the world, cant understand the secrets of this world, they cant even speak, or listen, or see, or walk…They seem to be full of flaws, but seriously, they are perfect.

The most intimidating thing about human beings, they can learn anything, and only if you give them time, they can do better even than the ones who they learned from.

I brought back ninety-thousand, seven-hundred and forty-five types of magic from the surrounding worlds. I secretly taught these magics to human beings. Without exception, all these magic have been mastered by human beings in years. Within ten years, a large number of human beings mastered these magics, and within a hundred years, they made new development upon over ten-thousand types of magic, and even upgraded them.

They also inherited Saint Pan Gus fertility. They are reproducing at such a high rate. After years of calculation, I discovered that… If we give human beings enough resources and space, they can occupy every corner of this world.

Human beings are so perfect. But, Priest Jun used them merely as cages to seal you poor thing!

Original Devil dropped his face and remained silent.

But, I am not like him. I saw greater value from human beings that is worth exploiting. So… long, long ago, back when I was still sealed deep in the great Dao by Priest Jun, I took the three Pengs as my disciples.

Look, Priest Jun and me are just like this. He is Priest Jun, while I am Priest Yun, he took the three who were generated from Saint Pan Gus soul, while I took the three who were pre-world gods and existed inside Pan Gus body. He used human beings as cages to imprison your soul, to weaken you, suppress you, to disable you from waking up.

But, I used human beings as my eyes, to see the origin of this world. If one compared the origin of Pan Gu world to a vast ocean, these human beings would be like tiny drinking straws, because they have been taking powers from the great Dao of nature and learning about the great Dao. And, the powers of Dao that they took were all absorbed by the three Pengs clones, which existed inside their bodies.

A human being can only understand a limited part of the great Dao, and absorb a limited amount of original powers of Dao. But, if you put countless human beings together, their understandings and harvests will be tremendous!

So, you fought the three Pengs, you felt their powers! With your current power, you cant survive a random strike from them. They have attained the power of creation and merged their bodies into the great Dao. They have…

Sighing slightly, Priest Yun smiled at Original Devil and continued, All in all, theyre very powerful. With their help, I have the confidence to kill Priest Jun and his three disciples, vanish the pair of greedy stupid troublemakers from the west, then destroy that soft-hearted woman who always protected Pan Gu.

After embracing the sky, Priest Yun continued with a deep voice, The measureless great Dao of Pan Gu world will eventually be mine. After dominating this world, I will finish what Saint Pan Gu didnt manage to do! I will attain my great Dao with strength, break all magic with strength, I will be the god of all gods, and I will make saints bow!

Smiling again at Original Devil, Priest Yun said, So, these human beings and Pan Gu world is my opportunity to attain the great Dao. You want to destroy the humankind and swallow the entire Pan Gu world, which is highly beneficial to you. But… I cant let you!

Shifu…then… Original Devil looked at Priest Yun in confusion.

I took you as a disciple because youre valuable! Youre good at controlling peoples hearts and starting conflicts. Wherever you go, that place will never be in peace. Youre such a sharp blade! Priest Yun grinned and said seriously and confidently, In the future, when I achieve the supreme level, I will surely be facing more enemies. By then, you will become my…dog! You will bite my enemies!

Slapping on Original Devils shoulder, Priest Yun laughed brightly and said, Youre good at damaging things in darkness. Once people are possessed by devils, the devils will never disappear. How great! Especially, youre not afraid of death. If youre killed, I can simply kill a random human being, and raise the devil seed in his heart into another Original Devil. You share all memories with your devil seeds, which means you can never die!

Eyes shining brightly, Priest Yun looked at Original Devil and carried on, You are very helpful to me, which why I take you as my own disciple, and dont want you to grow too much hatred against the three Pengs! But youre too weak now, so I will…raise your power a little! freebovel.com

Lowering his head, Priest Yun looked at the vast Pan Gu Motherland, then smiled and said, Do you know what kind of human being are the best? The violent, brutal, ruthless, simple-minded ones are the best human beings.

We dont need human beings to be smart and wise. We just want them to be in a sufficient quantity, so their bodies can contain enough clones of the three Pengs. As long as human beings with a large enough number exist in all surrounding worlds, they will be the best human beings. What do we need those smart, brave, decisive, and capable human beings for?

To me, they provided just as much as the ordinary ones did. On the contrary, they invented a secret magic to cast away the three corpses from human bodies, and that threatened the three Pengs clones! Therefore, your goal is destroying all human beings, but I am only targeting the elites among them! Thats how were different.

Now, my disciple, are you ready to take action with me? Feel all the clan leaders, elders, commanders, and elite warriors that you have controlled with your devil seeds. Forget about the ordinary ones, but select the elites…Look, those two non-humankind military camps, make those elite human beings march to the two camps!

Haha… Fuxi, Shennong, Suren, Cangjie, Taihao, Shaohao, Xuanyuan…These old human beings have sneaked back. Do they think I dont know that? Lets show them our power…I really like the color of human blood.

Back in the old days, if they didnt run so fast, I would have destroyed them one by one…Shame.

Chapter 1905 — Care

EndlessFantasy Translation EndlessFantasy Translation

It was already late at night, and the car slowly drove past the bustling streets. There was a constant flow of pedestrians, and most of them were couples on dates, walking past hand in hand.

The streetlights of different shades fell into the car, and Qin Sus face was as indifferent as water.

Grandfather and the others are really happy today. Its been a long time since Ive seen them have such a good time. Thank you, Qin Su.

Zhou Zimo continued to drive steadily. It seemed like a long, long time had passed before he turned his head to glance at Qin Su, who was leaning against the back of the seat and leisurely looking out of the car window.

Upon hearing this, Qin Su, who had been silent all this while, finally recovered. She returned his calm gaze and said indifferently, Its rare for President Zhou to say thank you to me. Im just playing my part. Arent you also trying to please my parents?

Playing your part?

Zhou Zimo quickly caught the key word. After deliberating for a moment, he smiled, It really makes me happy that Officer Qin Su has such an awareness. Its naturally best to be playing your part. They will also be your family in the future, and they like you so much. When you marry me in the future, you will definitely be very happy. There wont be any pressure from the family. Zhou Zimo said shamelessly.

Qin Su frowned. Only then did she realize that she seemed to have taken a detour. She took a breath and replied, Marriage is not a small matter. We still need to give each other time to buffer.

As she said that, she lowered her head to look at the bracelet on her wrist. Just as she was about to reach out to remove it, she was stopped by Zhou Zimo, Take it. Its Grandfathers will. They want you and acknowledge you. You should be happy too. Do you really not like me? You really dont?

When Zhou Zimo asked this, his eyes could not help but look a little dejected.

Qin Su seemed to have heard his somewhat dejected tone. Suddenly, she turned her head to look at him. All she could see was his gloomy side profile. After thinking for a moment, she said softly, No, youre very good to me. I know. Its just that I cant accept this marriage life so quickly. Isnt it good to let nature take its course?

Qin Su, as long as you dont nod your head, as long as you dont remember me in your heart, I wont have any sense of security. Im not afraid for you to know that I, Zhou Zimo, will only marry you in this lifetime. When will you at least care a little about me? How can I enter your heart? Tell me, Im willing to do it.

As Zhou Zimo spoke, he suddenly could not take it anymore. He pulled the car to the side and stopped.

Screench

The sound of the brakes cut through the quiet night sky, Qin Su instantly frowned. She suddenly turned her head to look at Zhou Zimo. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Zhou Zimo looking at her with some resentment. His dark eyes were filled with anxiety and unease, there was also a faint melancholy that he was trying to suppress.

Qin Su was instantly stunned. Her indifferent pink lips moved. Just as she was about to say something, Zhou Zimo suddenly unfastened his seatbelt and leaned over to her. Without waiting for her to react, his large hand had already grabbed her head, his hand swiftly unfastened her seatbelt and pulled her into his embrace. Qin Su instinctively resisted. In the next second, a passionate kiss landed on her lips. The slightly cold line of his lips accurately sealed her slightly opened red lips…

The passionate kiss naturally carried a burning temperature, causing her to be unable to withstand it. Both of her hands were firmly controlled by Zhou Zimo. He was invading her territory like a hot knife through butter, but she…

If I really go crazy one day, it will definitely be because of you! Your ability to torture people is too strong, yet I, Zhou Zimo, really have no choice but to have you!

Zhou Zimo whispered in her ear through gritted teeth, and he could not help but gasp for breath.

Qin Su raised her eyes, but what greeted her was his eyes that were as deep as the sea. Her pale pink lips moved, and her hoarse voice traveled over

You… Ugh!

Before she could finish her sentence, Zhou Zimos second round of attacks had already come in an overwhelming manner, almost pulling her into his embrace. The densely packed kisses also landed on her, bringing with them an overbearing sense of conquest, and the force was so great.., Qin Su could not withstand it.

Qin Su only felt that all her breathing was about to be snatched away by him, and a wild wave of passion directly pressed down on her. She was also somewhat in a daze, and before she had the time to think, her hands could not help but wrap around him…

Feeling the pair of arms behind him, Zhou Zimos heart suddenly felt a faint warmth. A look of joy flashed across his eyes, and he unceremoniously deepened the kiss.

The temperature in the car immediately soared. In this narrow space, both of them could feel each others rapid breathing.

Zhou Zimos large hand brushed past her long hair. The faint fragrance of her hair drifted over and he finally could not control himself. His large slender hand also reached into her clothes.

Qin Su did not react in time. It was only when she felt a chill on her shoulder that she snapped back to her senses and subconsciously reached out to push him away.

Being pushed away suddenly, Zhou Zimo was also in a daze for a moment. He looked at Qin su across from him and realized that she was lowering her eyes. The dim light had concealed her expression, but her actions had allowed him to see her panic.

The jacket and skirt on her had already slid down by more than half. The zipper on her back had also been unzipped unconsciously, revealing her pure white shoulders. At this moment, she was awkward and flustered as she tugged at the clothes on her body, and her breathing was somewhat unsteady.

She glared at him in a sorry state, obviously feeling a little angry from embarrassment.

Zhou Zimo naturally took in all of this. He let out a low laugh and hurriedly reached out to help her put on her clothes, saying, Im sorry, I couldnt control myself. I definitely didnt mean to take advantage of you, I swear!

Mind your own body.

Qin Su glared at him in embarrassment, and could not help but clench her fists and punch him in the stomach.

Zhou Zimo did not even let out a grunt. He only smiled dotingly and suddenly reached out to pull her into his embrace. He whispered her name, Qin Su, Qin Su…

Qin Su could feel his emotions. She suddenly stopped moving and allowed him to hug her.

I really hope that we can be like this in the future. In this life, only I, Zhou Zimo, can treat you like this.

Zhou Zimo said in a low voice, Dont make me wait too long. I dont want to waste my remaining time. Were many years too late, I should have married you back then. Im sorry, Qin Su… in my remaining time, I only want to pay attention to you. Do you hear me? Qin Su…

It was not the first time she had heard Zhou Zimos affectionate confession, but this time, it seemed to have moved her.

Hearing him say this, she suddenly did not want to deny that she felt a little happy in her heart.

Perhaps she also cared about him a little? A little more than that?

Chapter 1860: Priest Yun Talk to the Devil

Chapter 1860: Priest Yun Talk to the Devil

Law Hitesh

Everything in the world had a side of Yang, and a side of Yin.

The Yang side of Pan Gu world was the side where billions and billions of creatures lived and developed. On this side, the natural sceneries were picturesque, the weather was good, the soil was rich, and the plants were thriving. This side of the world was a warm, fertile place, nourishing all living beings.

But, the Yin side of Pan Gu world was dark, covered in snow, cliffy mountains, and sharp rocks. The fierce wind blew like wriggling serpents, screaming through rocks and mountains and raising clouds of dark snow. The snowflakes bumped against the mountains and rocks and caused muffled thunderous noises.

Countless dark and cold earth meridians, caves buried in this side of Pan Gu world. Never-melting essence glaciers gradually accumulated in the earth meridians, neutralized with the warm and positive earth meridian powers from the Yang side of the world. Yin and Yang supported each other, generated an inexhaustible power of Creation.

But this dark and cold place was also where the evils hid. The evils creatures which could not see the sunlight and hear the thunders, which werent able to touch even a slight positive power, had been hiding and resting in this place. These rare evil creatures who survived the prehistorical era saw this side of the world as a paradise.

The Original Devil built a magnificent devil palace in the center of the Yin side of Pan Gu world, forcibly turning tens of thousands of evil creatures which lived since the ancient time into devils, to follow his orders.

He gathered the dark and cold earth meridian powers in the palace. The devil palace turned the earth meridian powers into the darkness devil power, which condensed into a large pond in the palace. He then killed countless creatures, poured their blood into the pond, and created a blood sea. Day and night, Original Devil quietly bathed in the blood sea to absorb the dark devil power and the spirit blood power from it.

This day, Original Devil was bathing in the blood sea as usual. But suddenly, he burst into a scream. Streams of blood rose into the sky and formed blood bombs. The bombs exploded one after another, tearing down the devil palace and destroying countless devil creatures which were turned by Original Devil forcibly.

Pengs! How dare you?! Lets…go and see! Original Devil expanded his body to tens of thousands of meters tall, covered in sticky and stinky blood, while pointing at the sky and cursing.

He wanted to find the three Pengs and put up a desperate fight against them right now. But, despite the fact that he was extremely brutal and violent, he wasnt stupid at all. He hadnt restored even one in ten-thousand of his power by now. Therefore, if he challenged the three Pengs right now, he would definitely end up being sealed again by them!

He didnt want to become an unconscious devil seed again. He didnt want to be sealed in the heart of an ordinary human being, then being split up and weakened again and again as the human bloodline developed.

Lets go and see! He roared with rage, then angrily sat back into the blood sea. He shrank his body to the size of ordinary human beings and sat quietly in the blood sea as he sank into thoughts.

He wanted to free all the devil seeds and remerge all the pieces of his soul to restore his greatest power. In order to do that, he needed to kill all human beings in Pan Gu world.

But, he wasnt able to!

Before the three Pengs showed up, Wu Bi, who he cultivated with great efforts, was killed quite easily by human beings, and the entire Chu Wu Clan was being wiped out by a non-humankind force.

In order to free himself, he needed to destroy the humankind, and in order to destroy the humankind, he needed his power. But, without being free, where could he find his power? Difficult, this was truly difficult. Should he develop another helper like Wu Bi? That wasnt as easy as it sounded.

A man without an evil intent would not be possessed by a devil.

Among all human beings, the leaders and elders from quite a lot of large clans and families were possessed by the devil, but they were still far away from turning into devils. Only the mad and ruthless Chu Wu Clan people were the best choices to turn. Only Chu Wu Clan people could be turned into devils so easily!

When Original Devil was struggling, a nicely scented wind blew over from a long distance away. He saw an overwhelming purple mist cover the sky, while the wind and a warm glow rolled to his face. A red-crowned crane spread its meters wide wings and slowly flew towards him.

A white-robed old man quietly sat on the cranes back with his legs crossed.

The old man had silver hair and beard, and a round, silver-bowl-like, mild face. He sat silently on the cranes back, with beams of bright light shining out of his body. The bright light penetrated the space and waved slightly, the whole world seemed to be breathing and flowing along with these lights.

Priest Jun? Original Devil recognized this face. He trembled out of fear, then leaped straight up and floated in midair, prepared to run at any moment. He couldnt stop trembling. Clearly, he wasnt so confident about escaping successfully.

Even you thought Im him too? The white-robed priest grinned as the red-crowned crane flew up to Original Devil.

Think carefully. Dont you really know my name? The white-robed priest smiled faintly while taking out a dark jade ruyi and holding it with both hands.

The moment the ruyi was taken out, a cold light dominated this area and Original Devils face paled, because he realized that he was disabled from moving!

You, you… Original Devil stared at the priest. He wanted to cry, but failed to shed any tears. That year, you cut me, you cut my soul into one-billion, two-hundred and ninety-six million pieces, then sealed me in the hearts of one-billion, two-hundred and ninety-six million human beings…It has been so many years, and those human beings had sons, grandsons…They created hundreds of generations, their population rose by at least ten-thousand folds!

My soul has been splitting up and weakening and resealing…If those human beings didnt grow so many desires and emotions in their hearts, I wouldnt have a chance to escape…If that situation goes on, one day, I might sink in sleep forever…

Priest Jun, now, I finally have a chance of survival. But, why wont you let me live? Original Devil looked at the priest bitterly and said, No matter what, I was the evil side of Pan Gu. We are related after all.

We are indeed related, but I am not Priest Jun. The priest smiled at Original Devil and said, Dont be silly. Look carefully, look at who I am.

Original Devil paused and looked at the priest from head to toe. A long while later, he abruptly shouted out loud, Priest Yun! You, you, you were sealed in the great Dao of Pan Gu world by Priest Jun. You should never have a chance to escape. How can you possibly be here?

Priest Yun grinned and responded slowly, If the great Dao remained stable, I surely wouldnt have had a chance…But, what do you think Gong Gong broke Buzhou Mountain and raised the flood for? Why do think some people guided those Pan Yu world saints here?

Chuckling, Priest Yun put the jade ruyi against Original Devils forehead and said, The three Pengs are my disciples. They said youre always hindering them…Now, follow my orders, and you live. Disobey, you die immediately! Choose.

Original Devil remained silent shortly, then kneeled before Priest Yun.

Chapter 1957 The Price Doesnt Matter if You Like It

Rong Zechen knew that Xiangyun Antique-store belonged to Gu Ning, but he did not know anything about the bronze chimes since he did not pay attention to the news about the auction. He simply came today with his Grandfather since he did not have class.

Yuan Yilin, on the other hand, did not know that Xiangyun Antique-store belonged to Gu Ning and only found out now.

Since this was news to them, they were terribly surprised. Where did Gu Ning get the bronze chimes from?

Rong Zechen was unaware of the bronze chimes price, but Yuan Yilin heard about it. This set of bronze chimes was worth at least six to seven billion! Gu Ning just made billions of yuan effortlessly, so Yuan Yilin could not help feeling jealous.

Gu Ning, I see you were the one who provided the bronze chimes! Where did you get them from? asked Yuan Yilin as though she was simply curious.

Considering Gu Ning and Yuan Yilins relationship, it was impossible for Yuan Yilin to be purely curious. She simply wanted to make trouble for Gu Ning since Yuan Yilin knew the bronze chimes came from illegal sources.

Despite knowing what Yuan Yilin was attempting to pull, Gu Ning replied calmly, My apologies, Senior Yuan. I cant tell you. There is an unwritten rule in the antique industry not to ask the seller for the source of their goods, so no one asked me for the details.

Gu Nings words left Yuan Yilin embarrassed and feeling like an idiot. Even though she felt angry, she could not show it.

Oh I didnt know I couldnt talk about it! My bad! I didnt know I couldnt ask. Yuan Yilin acted sorry, but she acted as though Gu Nings bronze chimes had come from illegitimate sources, so it was inconvenient to talk about it openly.

Gu Ning could not help mocking Yuan Yilin in her heart as she watched Yuan Yilins performance. Did Yuan Yilin think the patrons were in the dark about the bronze chimes source? Yuan Yilin seemed to think Gu Ning would get punished if it was found out that she got them through illegal means. Anyone with brains would not ask about this.

It doesnt matter. After all, you arent in the antique industry, said Gu Ning graciously. However, Yuan Yilin felt as though Gu Ning was looking down on her.

Gu Ning did not know about the thoughts running through Yuan Yilins mind. If she ever caught wind, she would definitely feel maligned. She was not looking down on Yuan Yilin. Instead, she was just bringing it up casually. Yuan Yilin had only herself to blame for any delusions that she was being persecuted.

Master Yuan did not feel Yuan Yilin was wrong to ask about the source of the antique, but he felt she was making a fool of herself. This made Master Yuan rather annoyed, so he looked at Yuan Yilin threateningly to remind her to watch her tongue.

Yuan Yilin noticed the look in Master Yuans eyes, so she stopped talking.

Master Yuan glanced at Gu Ning mildly before averting his eyes. Although he could tell Gu Ning was targeting Yuan Yilin, there was nothing wrong with her words, so he could not find fault.

Are you Miss Gu? Despite your young age, you are very capable. I am very impressed! Master Rong slathered praise on Gu Ning since he was genuinely awed by her.

Although Master Leng and Master Rong were not friends, Master Leng could not help feeling proud. After all, Gu Ning was his granddaughter-in-law!

You are too kind, Master Rong. I think I just got a little lucky! replied Gu Ning modestly but confidently.

You are too modest. It takes more than luck to accomplish things in life. Talent is the key to success, said Master Leng with a look of pride beaming from his face.

People unaware of Gu Ning and Master Lengs relationship felt that Master Leng was simply blown away by her talent. However, the ones who knew of their true relations instantly caught on that Master Leng was showing off his granddaughter-in-law.

Rong Zechen and Yuan Yilin naturally felt upset since Master Leng thought so highly of Gu Ning. Neither of them felt Gu Ning deserved such high praise. Yuan Yilin just became increasingly jealous of Gu Ning.

After their brief conversation, the auction of the bronze chimes commenced. Its starting price was 3 billion yuan and each bid was worth a hundred million.

Rong Zechen finally realized how much the bronze chimes were actually worth after hearing what the host said.

Gu Ning was the one who found the bronze chimes. How could Gu Ning have done it?

The more amazing Gu Ning was, the more upset Rong Zechen became. He felt Gu Ning did not fancy him because she was a brilliant young woman. However, she would never be good enough for him with a background like hers.

The moment the host finished his sentence, everyone proceeded to bid for the bronze chimes. However, since the bronze chimes were very expensive, a lot fewer people bid for them. The people who did were determined to go home with the bronze chimes, so the bidding process was particularly intense.

Even the people who were not interested in bidding for the bronze chimes were overwhelmed with adrenaline and the atmosphere buzzed with excitement.

Oh god! Someone has already offered 5 billion yuan for it. These people are simply too rich.

That goes without saying. Most of the people at an auction are rich folks.

Although the auction house is full of rich people, it is too much to fork out billions for an antique.

You might find it too expensive, but for people like them, a few billion is just like pocket change. The same goes, if we see something we like worth hundreds of thousands, we would buy it without a second thought.

Thats absolutely right! If you like it, then the price is no issue.

Some of the guests present were not interested in antiques. Also, not all of them were made of money. Even the ones who were loaded were reluctant to bid for the bronze chimes.

Rong Zechen was startled by how much people were willing to pay for the set of bronze chimes.

Before long, the bidding war had reached 7 billion yuan. Fewer and fewer people were actively bidding for the bronze chimes, but Cai Wenhong kept going strong.

It seems the museum is determined to have the bronze chimes, said Master Leng.

Uh huh! The bidding has already reached 8 billion yuan, but people are still going on. It is not worth paying over 8 billion yuan for those bronze chimes, said Master Xu.

If I knew Cai Wenhong wanted it so badly for the museum, I would have asked Gu Ning to sell it to him at a reasonable price and just go through the motion of auctioning it off. I think its great if the bronze chimes can go to the museum, said Jiang Zhongyu.

Master Leng and Master Xu felt the same way when they heard what Jiang Zhongyu said. Why did they not think of this earlier?

Chapter 1859: Old Stories

Chapter 1859: Old Stories

Law Hitesh

Wisps of dark fire rose from the bodies of countless human warriors as Original Devils voice echoed through the clouds, Pengs, that year, if you didnt stab me in the back, how could my soul ever be shattered by Priest Jun and his disciples? How could I ever be sealed inside human bodies? Finally, the human hearts were shaken. Nourished by their evil thoughts, my seeds grew strong, and earned a chance of freedom. But, why are you hindering me again?

Pan Gu Motherland suddenly turned black and red as an enormous face emerged from the thick clouds. Original Devil consumed a giant amount of power to show his face and roar at the entire Pan Gu world with an extreme rage, I swear with the name of Pan Gu…Pengs, I will destroy your souls. I will make you disappear.

Disappear? Said that weak and soft voice, You dont even know if we have souls or not. You dont even know who we are. Destroy our souls? How can you even say that?

Pengs laughed scornfully, then continued in a bland tone, Alright, why would we waste time talking to you? You are a descendant of Pan Gu…But, you are a trash abandoned by Pan Gu. Except the name of Pan Gus descendant, what else do you have that can be valued?

Three b*stards, you… Original Devil widely opened his mouth, prepared to give vent to a torrent of abuse.

From the bodies of the human warriors who were controlled by Original Devil and the three Pengs, soft streams of white light spiraled up at the same time, rising into the sky and merging into a vast glowing cloud. The cloud was rolling, while a giant hand emerged from it and pointed at Original devil.

The moment this finger strike was made, the entire world, as well as the entire great Dao of Pan Gu world quaked. An indescribable, original power of Pan Gu world supported this finger strike as the finger landed heavily on Original Devils face.

Following a furious roar, Original Devils face collapsed. The black and red clouds in the sky faded quickly, and the devil fire in the eyes of the human warriors dimmed. Soon, those eyes were clear again.

Confusedly, these warriors looked at their weapons, which were gripped in their hands and put right against their necks. Some of them even accidentally cut their skins. Exclamations could be heard from every direction as these human warriors completely forgot about what happened earlier.

The white lights that shone from their foreheads, hearts, and lower abdomens faded as well, as if nothing had happened at all.

Emperor Xun and the group of Gong Sun Family elders were dumbfounded. They were rooted to their spots by surprise, without being able to move. The sudden and weird move made by the three Pengs, as well as the brutal action taken by Original Devil, astonished them badly.

Go, lets go. Xing Tian might lose his temper again if we let him wait too long! Fuxi and Emperor Shun came to Ji Hao without being noticed. They were both wrapped in the black and white mists released from the Taiji pattern behind Fuxis body. Therefore, none of the stunned human beings down on the ground discovered them.

Ji Hao lowered his head and glanced at those people, then sighed slightly. He politely bowed to Fuxi and Emperor Shun, then transformed into a streak of light, and flew to Yao Mountain City.

The force of Pan Yu world nobles, which was led by Yu Huos clone, was wiped out by Ji Hao. Yu Meng, Yu Hu, and the other colony world nobles had been eliminating the devil people from Chu Wu Clan for the humankind. The non-humankind forces from the east and the west stayed actionless, resting quietly.

Emperor Xun and his people were stupefied by this series of twists, and still hadnt recovered from shock. Therefore, the human force from the south didnt send even one warrior to challenge Yao Mountain City either.

On this day, Yao Mountain City was quiet and peaceful, with no battle to be fought.

In the city, Ji Hao, Donggong, Ximu, Ao Bai, Zhu Rong, Qing Qiang, Ji Xia, Qing Fu, Shaosi, Man Man, Taisi, Feng Xing, Yu Mu, Yuan Li, Shermie, and Wuzhi Qi guided Fuxi and Emperor Shun into a meeting hall together.

Among this group of people, the human beings had all been passionately eyeing Fuxi, who was tall and strong, looking like a god. The non-human ones such as Donggong, Ximu, Ao Bai and Qing Qiang were polite to Fuxi, but had been showing different and strange expressions in their eyes, especially Donggong and Ximu, who were smiling meaningfully.

The other people each took a seat in the hall while Xing Tian carried his battle axe and walked around, curiously poking his finger into the wall and the pillars in the hall. Soon, over a hundred holes were left on the walls and pillars. Man Man followed behind Xing Tian with curiosity, and from time to time, she came to before him to see his weird large face.

No small talk was made at all. After sitting down, Fuxi began speaking, We left Pan Gu world and traveled in the Chaos for countless years. Our journeys have been quite fruitful.

Taking a deep breath, Fuxi continued blandly, At the very least, we found Pan Yu world…That world is…

All the others immediately concentrated their attention on Fuxi. Emperor, may I ask what exactly is happening in Pan Yu world? Said Ji Hao in a deep voice.

Fuxi remained silent for a short while with a frown, then slowly nodded and said, Extreme greed, endless consumption… They have not only been consuming the resources that they looted from other worlds, they were also consuming the original power of the world itself…Pan Yu world is even consuming Yu Clan people, Jia Clan people, and Xiu Clan people!

Fuxi waved a hand, smiled at Zhu Rong, and said, I have a detailed record about Pan Yu world. You can all read it later…I need to congratulate Emperor Zhu Rong, because the one who found Pan Yu world and entered there to figure out the truth about it with three-thousand years of severe efforts was your ancestor from twenty-nine generations ago.

The expression on Zhu Rongs face changed dramatically. He immediately stood up and seemed to say something, but could not.

Fuxi smiled and continued with a gentle voice, Now, seriously, the true disaster of Pan Gu world is one of those three, and its about to explode…We need to unite in a concerted effort, so that we can survive.

Emperor, who are they? What powers do they have? Asked Ji Hao.

Fuxi raised his head and looked at him, then responded gently, Do you know how the non-humankind came to Pan Gu world in the beginning? Those three controlled their minds and brought them here from the Chaos.

Smiling coldly, Fuxi continued, The ancestors of the twelve Yu Dynasty families believed they luckily found Pan Gu world, but never knew that they were just some chess pieces of those three.
