429: Chapter 429 Rocky Peaks, a Military Base of an Alien Race?

A flash of blinding white light flickered.

Chu Sheng didn't immediately poke his head out to observe this new world like a curious baby.

As a veteran camper, he knew the importance of being insidious.

This was the headquarters of the foreign race!

God knows how many terrifying existences were out there?

If he were discovered by some Emperor Realm powerhouse the moment he showed his face, he would truly be delivering himself on a silver platter.

So, after rushing out of the tunnel...

The hall was devoid of sunlight all year round, making it inevitably cold and damp, filled with a sinister aura; many of the moonstone lamp posts were made of white bones, making it appear all the more eerie.

Saying this, Lin Shang walked into the cabin carrying some food. Xiao Tian freed one hand to eat while the other continued to steer the boat. Although neither of them said much, Xiao Tian understood that this return journey might truly be dangerous.

After finishing her questioning, Xia Chu did not release Yu Shirong, only telling the jailer to bring him some food. Yu Shirong was so angry he wanted to curse, but seeing Chang Qing's expression, he swallowed his words.

She would truly rather see Xia Chu's bone-deep, charming seduction than see such indifference and tranquility. But why? Why would the Emperor treat Xia Chu this way?

Mad Sword steadied himself, his battle intent soaring, but Xiao Tian's gaze sharpened; he had underestimated Liu Ren's strength.

He pulled a key pouch from his pocket, and upon opening it, there were two metal wires inside. He had me use my phone to provide light while he poked around in the keyhole with the wires. After a bit of fiddling, there was a 'click' and the lock popped open. I hadn't expected him to have this skill.

In a daze, Concubine An seemed to finally understand Consort Ru's intentions, and her troubled heart gradually eased into a smile. "Your Ladyship is most virtuous. This concubine has no way to repay you and will certainly not let your painstaking efforts go to waste." Having said that, Concubine An kowtowed heavily three times and finally left Yongshou Palace.

The distance of a few steps felt incredibly long, those gazes following her like something tangible. Xia Chu clenched her fists and kept telling herself: Head up! Chest out! She had a clear conscience and had done right by herself; she could not and should not yield to others' gazes and misunderstandings. Cowering and fear would never help her.

Instead, the stranger who had sent her a text message sent a friend request. Qin Niange thought for a moment and then accepted.

Sang Zhi's injuries were not very serious. In just two days, he regained his usual gentle and soft demeanor, making people feel very comfortable looking at him.

"Could it be that there's still something we don't know?" Gu Yichen habitually rubbed his chin, falling into deep thought.

Zhan Ting could laugh, but Yi Chenjing could not, and the other princes also withdrew their smiles, filled with tension.

"Coach, is something wrong?" Xia Qing asked knowingly, with no intention of inviting him in for breakfast.

"Chen Feng, we shouldn't be detected while staying here, right?" Aisona asked with a hint of worry.

"Don't you guys think the name Chen Feng sounds familiar? I heard it mentioned a while ago, but I wasn't paying attention," Zhu Baoshan asked, glancing at the people around him.

"Adjutant Zhou!" A wounded soldier lying on a grain cart was the first to notice something wrong, pointing toward the top of the city gate with a grief-stricken cry.

Empress Wen looked at her son, who came to her regardless of what happened, feeling a sense of sorrow in her heart.

"The Duke must be referring to the Ancient Emperor Hentian, right? But to be honest, I only happened to obtain the Ancient Emperor's inheritance by chance; other than that, there are no other connections," Tang Qiao said with a raised eyebrow.

The Lion Camel King held the Golden Sun Bottle, muttering to himself foolishly. His spirit had taken too big a hit this time. To him, the Golden Sun Bottle was far more precious than the Radiant Dragon Saber; it was the source of his arrogance and his top-tier immortal artifact, but now it was destroyed.

The two spoke at the same time, their eyes meeting. Pingji naturally looked away, and the Shepherd God also turned his head awkwardly.
