Volume 1, Chapter 35: Wriggling Like a Thirst-Trap Streamer

Fei Xun tossed the keys with a grin. "Since it’s such a small matter, Brother Yan, why stand on ceremony with me? The designated driver is already here."

His dark, bright eyes turned toward Lin Yuxia. "Little Yuxia, are you coming?"

Under normal circumstances, Lin Yuxia would certainly have clung to her brother.

It was most evident on Elder You; a massive golden dragon coiled around his body, granting him immense power and allowing him to sit cross-legged in stability, without a recurrence of the previous issue.

Although my body was covered in wounds, I could clearly feel that the person I was now was the real me.

This place was even more desolate, appearing entirely devoid of human presence. Before Wang Mu stood a curtain of light—an earthy-yellow screen.

Koji Miyake’s detailed explanation finally made Masaji Maeda and Tendo Kubo understand his intentions.

After speaking, Tang Qianlin stepped forward and flicked out his Hidden Phoenix Blade, slicing open Wang Dacai’s abdomen. He discovered that the internal organs were being scorched, gradually carbonizing before their eyes, though there was no sign of an open flame burning within.

I swung the dagger in my hand, hacking fiercely at the Soul-Summoning Banner. The banner shuddered, but instead of snapping like an ordinary steel pipe, it recoiled. The Black Impermanence holding it looked ghastly, stumbling back several paces.

Jian Yi’s eyes were like torches; the moment he saw Jian Er enter, he spoke these words before shaking his head.

Li Yunfan fell into silence. He understood all too well the agony of such a life, just as he was experiencing now—not knowing when he would see a breakthrough, or when he would finally be able to defeat those damned Japanese.

Zhang Qiang, however, was different. He kept telling jokes beside Yang Jing to cheer her up, but his sense of humor was so poor that it had no effect whatsoever; Yang Jing didn't even acknowledge him.

Wu Yurou raised her eyes and saw it was Li Fan, her gaze brightening instantly, but when she suddenly spotted Lin Muyue walking over behind him, her eyes dimmed once more.

Moreover, if all went according to plan, the top official of Hangzhou would be promoted at the end of the year. In other words, Lin Zheng’s move to Hangzhou was actually in preparation to fill that vacancy.

Ye Fan said with some helplessness that he hadn't expected the divine fruit to bring such a lethal disaster upon them.

The interaction between the two, seen by Fu Huihui, made her grit her teeth in anger. By what right did Fu Ting deserve such special attention from Su Luoshui?

Just look at last year: when the township leaders came to the village for an inspection, they personally asked the old couple if they wanted to apply for the minimum subsistence allowance. They said the government was currently running a pilot program, and if they signed up, the state would provide them with a monthly stipend. Aside from the amount being a bit small, it was no different from holding an iron rice bowl.

It turned out that Luo Jun’s wife had been introduced to a job in Guangdong around March or April of last year. She had cleaned out the family’s savings, claiming it was for initial travel expenses, living costs, and fees to pay the person who helped her find the job.

As a result, if they weren't tied down in the hospital, they would beat each other up the moment they met, or enjoy pretending they were being filmed.

However, Sui Weiguo knew that being with an emperor was like being with a tiger. He had once feared that his father, the Emperor, might worry he would steal the spotlight, and had wanted to resign from his post and return to his hometown, but the Emperor had insisted he stay. They had spent the entire night drinking together.

The television crew was coming for an interview today. If the protagonist of the interview hadn't even woken up by the time they reached the doorstep, it would be a laughingstock.

Yao Chen was not someone easily fooled, and he certainly wouldn't agree to anything based on just a few casual words from Lin An.

Worried that she wouldn't be able to persuade him, Ji Wei set her sights on Old Stubborn, thinking that since he and Cao Manzhen were old acquaintances, he had made significant sacrifices back then to ensure the safety of her and her son.
