Chapter 25: My Cousin, Chen Yufei

They drove back to Starsea Garden.

After parking the car, Chen Xing took the sleeping Yaya from Li Moyan’s arms.

“Thank you.”

Li Moyan smoothed the long, wavy strands of hair that had fallen beside her ear. Her bright, limpid eyes rested on Chen Xing, and the corners of her lips lifted into a faint smile.

“What, aren’t you going to invite me upstairs...?”

The past few days had exhausted me with one thing after another. I had also discovered that prolonged use of the X-ray glasses caused serious damage to the nerves in my brain. By now, they felt almost like an organ of my body; the longer I used them, the more they drained me.

His strength had already transcended that of ordinary people, and he was actually older than Wang Sansheng. It was said that he was already a hundred and twenty years old. Back when he had fallen on hard times, he had received help from Wang Sansheng.

Although Jasmine was crying, she was still sensible enough to say that she was fine and tell me not to worry about her. Only after quite some time did she gradually stop.

The place before me clearly seemed extraordinary. Anyone capable of forcibly summoning me here could hardly be an ordinary figure.

“Hey? Are you all right? Are you all right? Just how are you?” Jinnian called again and again, yet tears streamed down her face as though they had gone mad.

In the eyes of many people, Xiao Shanhe’s silence and refusal to accept Xu Donglai’s challenge meant that he was afraid—that he lacked both the ability and the courage to face Xu Donglai in the ring.

If that was the case, why were they still so determined to cling to their own opinions about it?

He said my situation was the same. Now that everyone had discovered I possessed a Daoist constitution, they had immediately abandoned him and sought me instead, even going so far as to seize my body in the hope that, at a critical moment, I would possess the Daoist spirit of sacrificing myself for righteousness.

So I immediately closed in on Deng Zerong while continuously unleashing five powerful bursts of internal energy from different angles.

When Li Chang’an left the main hall yesterday, he had still seen bandits sprawled everywhere, drunk senseless. Now there was no sign of them, only several monks sweeping the grounds.

Cheng Nuo had always doted on Cheng Yan and An Xin, indulging them whenever possible. Yet when it came to their dancing, she was exceptionally attentive. Not only did she teach them personally, but whenever she lacked the time, she would hire professional dance instructors at great expense. They had studied nearly every style of dance.

Xu Xiufang stepped aside. As her eyes shifted, she glanced at Xie Yi, whose every movement exuded a distinctly boyfriend-like charm. A smile unconsciously curved her lips, and she quickly lowered her head as a shy flush spread across her cheeks.

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiangrong spat out a large mouthful of blood. Summoning all her strength, she pointed at Jin Wancheng and shouted angrily, “You... you... you deceived me...”

When she uttered the words “deceived me,” her voice seemed filled with boundless sorrow, and her tears fell like pearls from a broken strand.

After everyone withdrew from Huayang Palace, Zhao Gou glared at Shangguan Yun and the other man with gritted teeth.

“Everything the two of you have bestowed upon me today, I will certainly repay twofold. Hmph!”

With that, he swept away with Zhang Bangchang.

“What? You’re his boyfriend? That’s impossible. He would never leave me. You’re a liar. I’m going to find her right now.”

With that, the other party hung up.

No matter how formidable Monk Tianlong’s martial arts were, how could he withstand arrows sharp as a sky full of meteors? He turned and fled desperately, but there was nowhere left to go. Monk Tianlong could only retreat toward the ornamental rockery where he had hidden earlier. By the time he crawled inside, more than a dozen arrows had already pierced his body.

Yesterday, she had never explicitly said that clearing away cow dung was a task included with her quarters. Gu Qiang had merely been clever enough to figure it out herself.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wan’er was deeply moved. At a crucial moment, it was still her own junior apprentice who proved dependable.

This left the producer and the executive producer, who had wanted to manufacture a little scandal for publicity, somewhat disappointed. In this respect, Ling Jing and Cheng Nuo thought alike: neither wanted to deliberately stir up hype merely to create a gimmick.

Yun Yun, watching from outside, was nearly furious to death. Although she was not a man, she understood perfectly well what it meant.

After rinsing away the foam, she walked out. He then used a bath towel to dry her body before helping her change into pajamas.

Today it was her turn to look after Cheng Rongjian, but she soon discovered that serving dishes was actually rather difficult. Cheng Rongjian ate with great elegance and almost never glanced around carelessly. He rarely reached for dishes placed farther away. All she could do was ask whether he wanted more soup or needed another bowl of rice.

“I think you’re pretty great. Want to be friends?”

She was very forward about it, and saw nothing wrong with that herself.

The mystical formation from moments ago had already dissipated by the time Long Xiaotian departed.

I felt terrible that entire night. Qi Yue had once been such a radiant, spirited person. Seeing him reduced to this state was heartbreaking.

Several days had already passed, yet his hand was still wrapped in bandages. The doctor had come in the afternoon to change the dressing and administer an intravenous infusion, but no one knew how the wound was healing.

“I’m going to the restroom.”

Now that Xi Liang thought back over their conversation, the more she listened to it in retrospect, the more wrong it seemed.

Ning Fan spoke to Chen Jinnan. His tone was calm, yet there was not the slightest trace of hesitation.

Mo Jue glanced at him, said nothing, and walked outside. What a joke. They had all been selected from countless candidates. If Shentu Haolong could cause trouble without first getting the facts straight, he truly deserved to be remade from scratch.

Sun Bao’er’s parents stared at her in astonishment. It was the first time they had seen her take the initiative. It seemed she had fallen for Mu Zilin.

“Then let’s meet again the day after tomorrow. I’ll come and serve you then, Young Master.”

Having said this, Li Wu made as though to walk out.

While the treasures and weapons clashed, Wei Gongxue did not remain idle. She gently closed her eyes and raised both hands. In an instant, the gears in the sky began to turn. The stars overhead radiated endless brilliance, while the pulse rising from the earth became a joyous hymn sung by the weapons.

Who else could be calling her at a time like this besides that formidable big sister? In her mind, Furanda compared the leader of her own organization with the unknown invader, wondering which of them was more terrifying. Then a cold voice came through the receiver:

“Open the door.”
