Bai Huan returned to the point and said, "Chief Zhen's technique of burning incense is very meticulous, but precisely because it is too meticulous, it loses the true meaning of burning incense. On the other hand, Lady Ji's incense burning employs ingenious thought."

Ji Qinghe was somewhat surprised, not expecting Bai Huan to speak on her behalf.

The Empress was also extremely pleased.

Bai Huan turned to the noble ladies and matrons, saying with a smile, "Incense burning emphasizes the unity of the person and the fragrance, rather than burning incense merely for the sake of it. It focuses on using fragrance to represent one's mood and artistic conception, whereas Lady Ji—"

Suddenly! Behind Sister Ya, a purple portal appeared, and following that, massive dragons flew out from within the gate.

Zheng Ding thought about it, but finding no better solution, he nodded. After a little more casual chatting, everyone dispersed.

In his heart, he was contemplating how to utilize this formidable skill to wreak havoc within the Guluxians' military base, plunder their scientific research achievements, and pillage the place thoroughly.

Consistent with the architectural style of the villa, the interior was also quintessentially European, intricate and ornate.

However, what Chu Feng never expected was that upon his return, he would be faced with a "life-and-death farewell."

The blood bat's venom sprayed onto the surface of the protective qi barrier, producing a violent sizzling sound. The entire protective barrier was completely cloaked in a layer of red, and under the corrosive toxicity of the venom, it rapidly thinned. Had Luo Ping not continuously channeled his energy to replenish his true qi at all times, it would likely have vanished in the blink of an eye.

Mu Wei established a temporary administrative body for the troops, intended both for the daily management of these soldiers and to ensure the unit could operate normally prior to delivering the princess. Under normal circumstances, the new commander would make adjustments.

No one had ever seen it before, nor did they know that timber could be used to make paper; they only knew that bamboo could. Hearing Gao Chong say this, they broke into animated discussions.

Meanwhile, Cui Yongxing, driving the Bugatti Veyron, relied on the car's formidable acceleration to temporarily hold second place, with Kang Zijian in third.

The boss was truly a rascal, actually playing hide-and-seek with her. Though there was some lingering grievance in her heart, a brilliant smile blossomed across her face.

"You need not speculate about this matter any further. It has nothing to do with our Elephant Clan; we should just return and wait to see how things develop. After all, the members of our Elephant Clan are not as numerous as those of the Winged Clan or the Tiger Clan. Getting embroiled in such a whirlpool is simply not worth it." Xiang Hu patted Xiang Cheng's shoulder and concluded the topic.

That item was a neck protector, handed over personally by the mage before his death. According to the mage, its function was teleportation. Clearly, even on his deathbed, what he still thought of was how Xiulin could return to the Beast God's realm. How could this fail to deeply move Xiulin?

At a round table closest to Cui Feng, an emerald-green horned dragon was coiled. While eating the food laid out on the table, it watched the performance on the terrace, looking quite leisurely and content.

Fei Tianming picked up this stack of documents, got into his car, and headed home. Sitting in the vehicle, he perused the papers. They concerned a real estate developer named "Dingtian," and the project involved the redevelopment of an urban village. Fei Tianming racked his brains for a long time, yet he still could not recall which developer this Dingtian real estate firm actually was.

Jin Qiong's aura was intensely powerful—she was at the half-step Nine-Star Soul Emperor realm! Even without deliberately releasing her pressure, many of the geniuses around her turned solemn.

"It looks like the interior of this giant tree's trunk has been hollowed out. I wonder what lies inside." With these thoughts, Cui Feng covered his nose to ward off the oncoming wave of musty odor.

The ancestors of the Qin family had long since been devoured by her. Now, she was the greatest ancestor of the Qin family.

The night in the courtyard was exceptionally quiet, as if all worldly clamor had been blocked outside the door. What Fei Liangyan enjoyed most every day was this quiet moment of the night, when he at last could lean against Shi Yi in peace and quiet to gaze at the stars.
