Mutual Concealment

Back then, Ying Chongyun could still glimpse some of Ji Ningzhao’s intentions through the way she conducted herself, and Ji Ningzhao had never been one to hide anything from him. As the years passed, Ji Ningzhao grew increasingly mature in her actions, becoming ever more inscrutable. Most importantly, to Ying Chongyun, she was no longer willing to confess her true motives to him as she once had.

“Zhao, I don’t know what you’re trying to do.” Ying…

When we returned to the company, Gu Yisheng stayed silent, lost in thought, even pressing his hand to his chin in the elevator, leaving me in suspense and agony.

Hearing these words, Zhang Ruyun realized that the fruit was not ordinary; puzzled, he quickly asked Yin Niang what it was.

“You may think victory is in your grasp, but I believe you will never win. You are still no match for me.” Zhang Bairen glanced sideways at Li Shimin.

And unless there were at least ten experts on Feng Wuyi’s level, it would be impossible to keep things under control.

How could any prominent family in the Great Peace Kingdom willingly appear in such a godforsaken place?

After blocking an attacking foreigner with his shield, Zhang Yi looked up at the luminous tower. His perception might not match that of top sorcerers, but in this case, it didn’t take much to realize the truth—the tower was clearly the cause.

Su Junhua’s clothes, along with his ID and bank cards, had all been left with Sister Lianxiang. With Wu Tiantian present, Zheng Lianxiang couldn’t hand them over directly, so she could only hint at it like this.

Rong Ting took out a clean handkerchief and handed it to Jun Yuyan, motioning for her to clean her hands. Then, with her jade-like hand, she poured a cup of tea and offered it to her.

I looked up at him with shining eyes, unable to find the right words. It was he who gave me everything, who gave me such a wonderful home.

As that voice rang out, a trace of embarrassment and annoyance crept over Li Qiong’s face—she was clearly frustrated at her inability to see through Qin Yibai’s identity.

This person must have guessed something, but as far as I know, I’ve never revealed to her that I am a god! What is going on? Could it be that her “Eight Trigrams Mirror Extreme” divined my secret? Isn’t that magic supposed to be ineffective on me?

Heavens, at least further ahead there were a few tattered strips of cloth as cover, but the fabric behind was worn away completely.

Moreover, the massive blade wheel was rapidly expanding! After completing the first rotation, the four mechas changed their course, forming an even larger fan-shaped blade, sweeping outward in a deadly spiral.

“T—Toto, what you’re doing isn’t right…” Qian’ai covered her face, struggling to sound stern, though she seemed to be conveying, “I didn’t see anything.”

Of course, although Kira Yamato still destroyed a Gundam and its pilot as in the original storyline, there were subtle changes this time.

“Who?!” Before Siqin could finish his words, a cold sword had already sliced through the air, its tip pressed against his master’s elegant neck.

It possessed absolute power—capable of destroying all things, yet light and elusive, difficult to grasp. This force was one of nature’s own, but now it was artificial. Someone had used powerful spiritual energy to stir and concentrate the air currents, forging them into this force.

“Could this be some ancient secret art handed down from times long past?” Zhang Yi wondered, a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Nangong Qingquan hurriedly lowered her gaze as she spoke, trying to hide her panic and unease.

“Human cultivators? It’s been a long time since any humans came here.” Suddenly, the fierce Chiwen beast opened its jaws, its thunderous voice shaking the surrounding stone walls.

The greatest concern now was whether any powerful figure was secretly involved. The main battle faction had been acting frequently. You all saw it this time—first the Celestial Pearl, then the Li Xuan Pill; a major operation was inevitable. The Violet-winged Thunder Eagle and the Nash family were their allies, and now even the Mijiao clan was involved.
