As for her, nothing mattered but her father; if he asked her to steal, she would steal, and if he asked her to leave, she would leave.

Just as Zhong Qin and the others were chatting, Jiang Yu emerged from the bathroom, looking frantic after freshening up.

He recalled the sensation carefully: yes, beyond the aura of accumulated merit, there was that nauseating scent of one who seeks to save the masses.

Yet, as a respected Spirit Master, Su Yuntao kept his expression calm. With his right hand behind his back, he spoke indifferently to the group of terrified children before him.

Lin Qian casually took off his down jacket and hung it on the rack by the door, teasing with a smile.

Wu Chaofan gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and apologized to Lin Qian in what he deemed his most sincere tone.

Qiao Xin’s recovery was excellent; by the third day after giving birth, she was already able to get out of bed and walk around freely.

Learning that Xiao Yan was a second-tier alchemist with an extraordinary background, and sensing he might achieve great results if he participated in the Alchemist Tournament, Francais immediately offered to test Xiao Yan’s alchemist rank.

Since their mother passed away, her brother rarely smiled. No matter the occasion, his brows were always etched with frost, making it impossible for others to draw near.

When he went to work the next morning, Xiao Rui went to see the Bureau Chief. At first, the Chief refused to let him go, but when Xiao Rui promised that even after transferring to Longmen Town he would help the bureau oversee construction cost audits, the Chief relented.

Qiao Yibo had also awakened. The feeling of seeing the familiar architecture of the old castle once again... it was simply wonderful.

I nearly laughed out loud. Of course it was wonderful. They took no risks, letting Ma Danlong play his own game; if he succeeded, great, and if he failed, it was Ma Danlong’s own misfortune.

Although the news brought back by the few thugs who had been scared out of their wits seemed terrifying, the group that arrived now numbered in the dozens, and each one of them was full of bravado.

Well, she did waive two hundred thousand yuan for me, after all. For the sake of that money and that favor, I really should see her off.

Yet she did not tell Changqing the truth about her being human. Ever since the man in white gave her that black stone, her human aura had been completely masked; now, the aura she exuded was no different from that of an ordinary ghost.

I looked at Hei Mingzhu, feeling a deep reluctance to let her go—not just the person herself, but also the pain and sorrow she might suffer.

However, Dahu’s slander left Wei Yushan both ashamed and furious. It was a textbook case of defamation, but in Yunling, the law seemed powerless. Even if Wei Yushan reported Dahu, it was unlikely that anyone in Yunling Village would dare to testify against him.

Liu Fangrong’s body continued to tremble. By the moonlight, she stared intently at the man nearby. Her eyes were first filled with confusion and doubt, then, as if she had suddenly remembered something, they widened in utter disbelief.

As they drew closer to the place emitting waves of red light, Wan Bao’er held her breath, constantly wondering what the legendary Gates of Hell truly looked like.

In the end, Qian Ge could not withstand Ye Fengxie’s pestering and had to accept Liu Yi. She knew that if she persisted in refusing, Ye Fengxie would surely resort to a ruse like having Liu Yi sell himself into servitude to bury his father, which would be a true headache.

Early in the morning, the instructors from both countries arrived at the venue. Zhan Kuang was in low spirits due to Xuan Junyao’s antics the night before.

It was still attempting to sink into the sand to escape, but Cang Xiezi would not allow it. He gripped his long braid tightly and dragged the monster toward the main group. Behind him, one by one, the warriors of the Scorpion Clan mimicked his method, dragging out the prey they had snagged.

In the vortex, Dao Danli had just appeared, and seeing this, he roared, “Stop!” Before his words had even faded, he had already reached the tower.

Setting aside how the Jiang family discussed finding the Yi Shi Qin, elsewhere, Luo Yu sat in the carriage with a pale face. Ignoring the Shao Hua thrown in by Qing Jie, she sat cross-legged on the daybed and began to force the poison out of her system.

Luo Tianqing remained silent. It was impossible not to be curious, but she could not afford to show any curiosity at this moment.

After much consideration, Xiao Fei greeted Jin Sheng, took Xiao Yiyi and the others, and moved out of the Bai family home to the courtyard that had previously belonged to the Earth Snake Gang, preparing to enter seclusion for cultivation.

Taking advantage of the red light at dawn, Yu Tao tried to peer down the cliff a few times, unable to hide his frustration.

Because of the alcohol, his face was burning hot. A slight movement in his palm—it was Lu Tianlang, unconscious in his sleep, rubbing against him. Weng Ru jolted awake, immediately pulled her hand back, and her expression turned icy.

Life is a one-way ticket with no return; once things are done, there is no turning back. He married and had children, living a life of comfort, yet he was never satisfied. Instead, he made mistake after mistake, seeking to conquer the world, capturing innocent children to use as ingredients for his 'medicine,' inciting the wrath of both heaven and man.

The key to the cage was in his hand, yet he had been a prisoner for years while holding it, still hoping that Dong Qianmo—who was no longer the Wei Moqin he knew—could redeem his dead love.

The power in the underground base had not yet been restored, and they were still relying on emergency generators; it looked rather dim. It was under the cover of this gloom that Xiong Chumo ran toward the area where the prisoners were held.

“‘Sisters Over Flowers’ is currently airing on our Tomato TV. The portion filmed in Fog City has concluded, and next is the Prague segment. The show’s ratings are quite good. Tell me, have you noticed your popularity skyrocketing?” Si Wenjia asked Xie Feifan according to the script.

“It’s not bad; it’s presentable,” Xie Feifan replied. Ning Ke was slightly nervous, and Xie Feifan, sitting beside her, kept offering praise to soothe her anxieties.
