Chapter 13175 — The Taiping Book Market
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
Wei Zhao was taken aback for a moment. "And what sort of place is this?"
Jiang Xiaoshang curled his lip. "Just ask around, why don't you? A place this well known—surely it won't come down to hunting a needle in a haystack?"
Wei Zhao pondered for a while, and at last settled on a target.
Jin Buhuan.
As a client liaison for the School of the God of Wealth, Jin Buhuan—judged purely by breadth of knowledge—had no equal among all the connections Wei Zhao currently knew of.
Jin Buhuan answered quickly: "The Taiping Book Market is a place devoted entirely to the trade in rare and ancient texts. It's a gathering..."
Sheng Jianan held Li Weiwei's phone, his fingers trembling slightly. The chill had left his body, replaced by a kind of desolation—a boundless desolation.
"Heh heh heh... I've got two bottles of fine wine in my space. Tonight we can drink and talk to our hearts' content!" Sibao said excitedly.
"Running off like this—aren't you afraid your brother will be beaten to death by the Thunderclap Gang?" Youran tried to divert Zuo Tangrong's attention.
"A-Jian, what on earth did you say to her? Why is she so upset?" Shen Nianhuan this time looked at her nephew with reproach as well.
"I saw there was no fruit in the fridge, so I bought some nearby." With that, she held up the bag in her hand for him to see.
Feng Burong gazed at her steadily. Xu Wei saw that his eyes seemed veiled by a thin gauze, adding a layer of haziness—as though he were looking at her, yet through that gauze the sight never truly reached her.
"It's good that you understand. Nothing matters more than harmony in the family, brothers guarding one another." Shen Munian's words carried a hidden meaning, but Shen Muyun had sunk into thought and did not hear them.
An Moxi returned to her room. Tudou had already fallen asleep. She smiled, laid out all of Tudou's dog food for her, and then went to bed.
After that strange meteor shower, rumors of the end of the world spread through all three planes as if by prior agreement, throwing the whole world into panic... The high-ranking wizards dismissed it with contempt; not only did they refuse to believe it, they even arrested a number of low-ranking astrologers who had been spreading the rumors.
The tiger-headed beast-man spoke in human tongue, gave a furious roar, and once more swung his massive hand, smashing it down at Su Mu and the others.
Hearing the urgency in Miao Qing's tone, Leng Xuan could not help but wonder. He had no idea what deep grudge Miao Qing bore the King of Hell, that she should be so impatient to seek her revenge against him.
The Skeleton King immediately raised his sword to block, but with a "thud," a single strike from the Azure Dragon drove him to one knee on the ground.
In those days she had been the nation's darling in everyone's eyes, while he had been nothing more than an unremarkable café owner. The two of them should never have crossed paths—yet cross they did, at an intersection called "fate."
After he landed, he turned and looked back, and found that A-Su had already collapsed beneath a tree not far away, while Wu Jiu was just then struggling to his feet a short distance off.
Wei Xian was tickled into laughter, laughing so hard he nearly doubled over. Shi Xingzhou and Gu Liangchen said nothing at all, only clapped Jiang Heng on the shoulder like the good brothers they were. The corner of Tang Li's mouth twitched slightly, his eyes holding a smile too obvious to miss, while Xiao Quan could not help but let out a soft "hah" of laughter.
"Excuse me... may I sit here?" At that moment, a boy with a head of red hair asked hesitantly from the doorway.
