Volume One, Chapter 40: If Only Chen Yu Were Half as Understanding as You
Come to think of it, the whole thing is rather ridiculous.
During the first two years after Jiang Chenyu was taken up the mountain by her master, he was never willing to let her go home, nor would he grant her any leave. On the rare occasions she did manage to return, whenever she wanted to spend some time with her family, Jiang Xue'er would always find all sorts of excuses to keep her occupied.
Zuo Yi planned to take this orchid to the Xixi Underground Trading Market and consign it to the Jiabao West Branch for auction. Regardless of the final hammer price, if it fell short of enough to purchase a hundred-square-meter apartment in the urban area of Hangzhou, he would cover the difference himself.
As for where her own kin had gone, Red Girl had no idea; what was even more terrifying was that she was completely clueless about her own current whereabouts.
Before Jun Chen, there had been a young genius in the Jun family named Jun Fuying who had once struck terror across the Hundred Domains. She was born thirty years before Jun Chen and had mastered both the path of shadows and the path of slaughter, making her a true queen of assassination. Once Jun Chen was born and began to radiate endless brilliance, she started to retreat into the shadows.
However, after giving it some thought, he realized that since Su Mufan could extract the Heaven-Splitting Spear and exert control over it, he was naturally the most suitable person for the task.
"Just now, a tremor stirred within my body," Jun Chen said, his voice laced with a faint tremor.
I did not answer his question; the story of my mother's departure back then was common knowledge throughout our tenement building.
Conversely, if he were in the Blue Star world, he would be rewarded for slaughtering any entity that threatened the world, regardless of the methods he employed.
Zuo Yi watched as "himself" knelt on one knee before the altar. A figure in black robes approached, muttered a few indistinct words, and then reached out a withered, blackened hand to rest upon "his" head.
She had always been alone, without any companions. Therefore, if Lu Muyuan could become her companion, things would surely take a turn for the better.
The body of the Ghost-Faced Cat Demon landed heavily, rolling across the ground several times and leaving behind a large pool of blood.
As for what they were going to do, there was no need to ask; it certainly wasn't to fetch water or chop wood for the villagers.
In his heart, Zhao Xue was so pure and chaste. In the two years they had been dating, he hadn't been able to bring himself to take her virginity, having only kissed her. This was because she had emphasized that she wanted to save her first time for their wedding night.
Suddenly, deafening cheers erupted from the spectator stands; the freshmen participating in the semi-finals were beginning to emerge from the competitors' tunnel.
Once through this pine forest, one could see the winding road at the foot of the mountain, as well as the house whose door panels had been removed by Wu Zuile.
In the eyes of many, Qin Tian had become synonymous with a madman; some entrepreneurs had even privately nicknamed him "Madman Qin" to refer to him.
Then, the Bat suddenly pulled up in a very strange manner, its upper body instantly dropping to the ground. Pressing its spine flat against the earth, it took three steps forward with its legs, then rolled a full ten feet like a rolling log before flipping up to its feet once more.
The moment Richard put on his helmet, Da Wang immediately crawled out of its cat house, leaped onto the bed, jumped onto Richard, and stomped hard on his stomach.
Su Jiaojiao immediately displayed an expression of extreme fury, looking as if she were ready to kill.
At this moment, the ground was covered in fallen pine needles. Walking on them felt as soft and springy as treading on a carpet.
"Lady Jiang Mei is asking a question; have you all lost your senses?" After a long silence, seeing that no one answered or offered a salute, Yun'er stepped forward to scold them.
The Main God Mountain—such a temptation was impossible to refuse. It was the crystallization of the path leading to the heavens.
