Volume One, Chapter 61: A Perilous Moment—Lin Ranran Enters the Space and Gives Birth to Quadruplets!

Pei Yuan watched as Lin Ranyan’s face drained of color in an instant and asked anxiously, “Ranyan, what’s wrong?”
Poten had already resigned himself to fate; he knew he was about to make another journey to the gates of death. But when he finally saw the grand formation Qin Ling had set up, shock and disbelief surged across his face.
Zhang You had guessed correctly—Chen You was indeed sent by Sister Wang Xi to summon Zhang You to the palace. Of course, the reason was not acupuncture, but a conveniently timed “cold.”
Cao Yi hesitated after thinking for a moment. After all, as the military supervisor, he could use various excuses to slow the army’s march—such as preserving the soldiers’ strength or warning against rash advances. But to leave the ranks without permission—that would be crossing a line.
Just then, Zhao Anna walked in, hugging her laptop, head held high like a proud swan.
Xu Chang realized he had caused a huge disaster and was instantly struck dumb. If his father found out he was the one who let the secret slip, there would be no end to his troubles. Taking advantage of the distraction, Xu Chang slipped away, hurrying to find his father.
Everyone was startled by the voice and immediately fell silent, staring blankly at the illusionary figure of Ouyang Sheng. They could all see how heavily Qin Ling had struck just now—an ordinary divine cultivator would have had their skull shattered by such a blow. But Ouyang Sheng was no ordinary cultivator—surely he would be fine?
The earth began to tremble uneasily, emitting a deep and sinister rumble, like heavy drumsticks beating a war drum with a muffled “dong dong.”
Jiali nodded and then walked out. She was half a head shorter than Yamamoto Denko, her figure frail and thin. The two girls were close friends, their families also sharing a warm friendship; the bond between their households was exceptionally strong.
But Jiang Ziya was different. The moment he saw the four cloud-piercing arrows forming a semicircle, enclosing him as if drawing a boundary, his expression changed dramatically. With a single thought, he tried to command the Qilin to soar into the sky and escape the encirclement at once.
Zhu Lingzheng’s true identity was revealed. When the name Zhang Zilin left Hei Mufeng’s lips, everyone’s jaws dropped in disbelief and confusion.
At his lowest point, seated high above the crowd, Jun Litian paid no heed when he first noticed the red figure. Yet when his gaze met those lively, spirited eyes, the cup in his hand fell to the ground with a crash.
“To be honest, if you only possessed the powers of fire and lightning and nothing else, I might have thought we came from the same place. But now I see, where I come from, there could never be a monster like you!” Ned sighed softly.
“Hmph, vile woman!” Old Chen Ding’s gaze locked onto Yaxin. Instantly, nine violet-gold fire dragons coiled around and imprisoned her as he unleashed the Heaven and Earth Furnace technique.
The underground chamber stretched beyond sight—its area likely spanned several football fields. Lights blazed everywhere; searchlights illuminated every corner, and many robots bustled about their tasks.
Looking closely at the arena, the two princes and princess, dressed in full regalia, sat at the southern head seat facing north. To the east and west, two rows of people were seated, apparently the most prominent figures in Shucheng. And to the north, near the entrance to the training ground, crowds of townsfolk had gathered to watch the spectacle.
Now, not only the masked man, but also Li Mo and Susan were left dumbfounded. Even Susan herself could not tell whether he was lying or telling the truth.
Liu Qianqian’s words were both a retort and a veiled attack, mocking Liu Manman for being a mere concubine’s daughter, lacking the grace and poise of a true lady.
