Volume 1, Chapter 57: If Only I Didn't Exist...

Jiang Chenyu bolted out in a flash, frightening the owner so much that he thought she was trying to dine and dash, and immediately chased after her.

Once outside, he remembered that at their establishment, payment was required upon ordering, making a dine-and-dash impossible.

He stopped in his tracks and looked back at Jiang Chenyu’s retreating figure; the young girl had already "darted" straight to the hospital entrance.

"Good grief, I've just witnessed a living flash." The owner wiped his sweat, sheepishly turned around, and went back inside.

Mages entering the mortal world must abide by many rules—they cannot maliciously scam people, they cannot intentionally harm people, and they cannot casually cast spells or perform sorcery in front of ordinary people to disrupt the laws of the mortal realm.

After all, this is a world where ordinary people form the vast majority.

However, Jiang Chenyu looked at her own...

After chatting a bit more, she left me her phone number and then went to sit beside Maozi. Her nose was quite large, and her eyes were also quite large. Although she didn't look as conventionally beautiful as Mu Meiqing, there was a certain allure to her vibe that captivated me deeply.

Ling Xiao didn't plan to go far. He looked around left and right, then took out his phone and dialed the police emergency number. To call the police alongside Jasmine, yet have no one answer the call—no matter how he pondered it, something felt rather abnormal.

Jiraiya still remembered that the Third Hokage only had seven days. However, counting the round trip for travel, it would take at most six days, leaving them plenty of time to hurry back.

He smiled self-deprecatingly, but stopped dwelling on these issues. Having slept all the way until noon after drinking with Hu Bayi the previous day, he checked the time and realized it was already midday. He hurriedly washed up, dressed, and went to the square, only to find that the others had already arrived long ago.

Blood was trickling from Luo Chenxi’s mouth, and Ke Ziqi wasn't faring any better. The two drop-dead gorgeous men were truly extraordinary; even the scratched and scuffed walls behind them after a brawl looked so pitifully charming, radiating a wild, rugged beauty all over.

That day, Jiulong Dong also made a trip to the hospital just to see this excessively fat dog. Hearing the plump hound recounting the matter with extreme smugness, Jiulong Dong walked right up and slapped it twice across the face, cursing out loud.

Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed behind Li Xiaoyi, and at the same time, the entire space seemed to freeze. Everyone except Li Xiaoyi stood rigidly in place like puppets.

"What on earth happened?" I was profoundly startled by the explosive piece of news he suddenly threw at me.

Hearing the response, Wu Xue clutched a pair of high heels and waited there. Mentally counting to five, she bolted forward at full speed using Wind Steps without the slightest hesitation. At that exact moment, with a loud bang, the surveillance camera exploded.

"Hanhua Fund and Lanhua Investment were a secret test given to He Xiao and me by the Old Master. Hanhua Fund was established six months later than Lanhua Investment, yet its current profit margin is seven times that of Lanhua." He said in a low voice.

Flipping past the earlier pages and discovering that the subsequent entries were merely records of clients visiting prostitutes, Eros casually tossed the list of the deceased onto the table.

Beneath the black cloth were transparent glass boxes containing various bizarre animals.

His formidable spiritual power and the technique of harmony between man and nature... made it so that almost nothing within a radius of a hundred meters could escape his perception.

Once he created one or two true-intent lethal moves, he would be able to step into the Perfection of the Fifth Stage and harbor hopes of becoming a soaring martial artist.

As Su An'an listened, her eyelids gradually grew heavy. Nestling in Seventeen's arms, she fell into a hazy, deep sleep.

Ye Beike swallowed hard. If the buck-toothed man learned the truth, he would probably be scared half to death on the spot.

"Xiaolu, are you worrying about the Five-Star Medal?" Noticing that Zhou Xiaolu was in low spirits, Ye Beike spoke up to ask.

Yet she probably never expected that her meticulously laid plans would all be ruined by Chen Lan, and that attacking the Imperial Zenith Immortal Dynasty would ultimately end up making wedding garments for Chen Lan's benefit.

Thinking that it was already deep into the night and everyone should be fast asleep, she could no longer hold back. Stepping lightly out of the room, she headed toward the kitchen.

Ji Goudan nodded vigorously. Hearing Jiang Yun mention his mother, tears immediately welled up in his eyes.

Unable to bear the days of being harassed by debt collectors, Aunt Li, with the help of her maternal family, moved into her elder sister's apartment in another city, finally finding a semblance of peace.

Old Li slightly furrowed his brow. The call hadn't been disconnected yet—wouldn't these people's words make Lu Dingguo look down on them?

If he so wished, even without suitable materials for manufacturing, he could rely on spiritual energy to forge a massive spatial realm.

Master Gu naturally was unwilling to give up just like that. Anticipating that Su Wan would refuse, he had a backup plan prepared. In short, he was determined to get involved with this goat's milk soap.

His first impulse earlier had indeed been to kidnap that Judge Brown, but upon second thought, he realized he had no need to do such a thing.

Along the way, Shen Tiantian remained silent, occasionally stealing sideways glances at Ye Beike, only to instantly look away whenever their eyes met.

Murong Sheng had never expected him to refuse so directly, simply, and without the slightest hesitation. For a moment, he didn't even know how to respond.

And naturally, out of the dozen or so voice memos prepared by the production team, she recognized Song Yan's voice at a single glance.

"As for the courtyard, I will buy one myself in due time. Master Gu, I won't see you out. May you have a safe journey!" Su Wan bowed to him again, her words conveying a stance of keeping him at a thousand miles' distance.

During the theater performance, Princess Xiang occupied the primary seat, flanked by the princesses of the two other royal estates as vice-hosts. Ranked further down were the madated wives of the two ducal households—one from the Duke of Tang's estate, the maternal clan of the reigning empress, and the other from the Duke of Jiang's estate, which held military power.

I gently nudged the two of them from behind, causing them to snap out of their daze and return to their seats with a hint of perplexity.

Fortunately, the team led by Yan Wushuang consisted entirely of elites. They had been marching for four or five days without a single casualty, though no one dared to let down their guard, as none of them knew whether even more powerful magical beasts lurked deeper inside.

"Tianyu has raised the child alone for ten years; it truly hasn't been easy. It is rare that today he is tying the knot with Maiden Taohua in marital bliss. I will gladly serve as the matchmaker for this union!" Fourth Uncle looked at Wang Tianyu cheerfully, his face beaming with gratification.

Clearly, Lasta was stalling for time, hoping that Konas could defeat the Eight-Armed Demonic Dragon so that the two of them could join forces to drive back the Flood-Dragon-Headed Demonic Tiger.

This man was around forty years old and slightly bald. At that moment, he had his eyes closed with an expression of pure enjoyment, completely failing to notice that I was peeping at him.

Then, that treasured item dropped onto the ground with a soft thud. Qin Yang picked it up and instantly froze—it was a soft bracer.

The Hundred-Flower Demon Spider shook her head with a helpless bitter smile and stopped trying to persuade him. Instead, she raised her head and stared anxiously at Lin Yi high up in the sky.

With a cold chuckle, the muscles all over Lin Yi's body bulged violently. Dark golden natal essence blood condensed into golden beads that surged outward from within his body.

However, the forms they assumed after transforming were rather irregular, or rather, clearly in a state of incomplete restoration.
