Volume 1, Chapter 30: Those Adulterous Scoundrels Have Snuck All the Way Here

Frowning as she watched the Arbor Palace on the verge of collapse, she fluttered her golden wings and, taking Zhang Qiujing by the hand, flew toward the window.

Nalan Xin found herself lying on a single bed, its style remarkably simple and plain.

Remembering her promise to Ding Xue, she took out her bankbooks and placed them in her bag; she would study them tomorrow to see how much she could contribute.

Wang Chong felt a bit embarrassed as he introduced himself, careful to avoid any hint of boasting. His modest demeanor led Bai Zhiwei to vaguely sense that she ought to be the leader of the three.

So, I had misunderstood Hu Chenyuan. It wasn't that he didn't care about me, nor was he indifferent to watching me die.

"No, we must respect the rules of the game." Having gained an advantage, Ding Mu did not want to press his luck further; he returned to his seat and his fingers began to dance across the screen.

Visiting Zhangsun Ya’s bedchamber every five days was merely to fulfill the marriage alliance and put on a show for outsiders.

Seeing the fluid and practiced movements of Li Xuan, Zhou Yan’er found it amusing and placed the cup Li Xuan had used neatly back on the tea table.

Reflecting on her past life, she had worked in education, clawing her way up from a grassroots teacher. Just as she turned thirty and had spent two years in the Education Bureau, she died in a plane crash while traveling abroad—what wretched luck.

She had always been a light sleeper; as soon as she heard Granny Xu getting up in the morning, she woke instantly and quickly rose from bed.

Now that he had agreed to be with her, agreed to marry her, was she unable to keep up the charade any longer?

Lu Yun was slightly taken aback, curious as to how the old king could discern his strength. Previously, the old king seemed unable to see a thing, yet now he could gauge it roughly. Could it be… because of the Heart-Shaped Herb?

The officers and soldiers hurried to accept their orders. Military command still rested firmly in Muhua’s hands; he had already made up his mind that if the three thousand cavalrymen failed to hold off the Tianshu Kingdom's army, he would lead the troops into battle himself.

Because Zhao Huiying was not shrewd when she should have been, yet craftily cunning when she shouldn't be, Mei Zhiming dared not fake his fall too obviously.

The area beneath the Flint-Heart Tree was now completely bare, and the Azure-Patterned Demon Tiger Dragon, having been slapped away, carved a wide path across the ground as it landed.

Seeing that Ye Fan was about to be caught, a "swish" was heard. The bodyguards felt a cold flash of light before them, and the net covering Ye Fan was already shredded to pieces.

Su Li’s mind conjured an image of the boy at the classroom door, helping a student from another class deliver gifts to a pretty girl, only to secretly skim a portion of the snacks for himself.

Watching Fan Kuai engage in battle with the approaching Han Xin, while his own five hundred men left not far behind were also tangled in a fight with the Qin soldiers, Liu Bang realized that if he wanted to be safe, now was his best chance to escape.

"Why add ice?" Gu Tingxuan asked, as if he hadn't heard Shen Muxi at all.

At this thought, Ji Yuwei couldn't help but clutch her clothes tighter. Although Gu Mochen appeared to be a gentleman, who could guarantee that a man wouldn't turn into a "big bad wolf" once he lost his composure?

Yang Xi was both shamed and angry. This Qin Lang was usually lecherous to a fault, so why was he pretending to be a gentleman now? It was infuriating, and it made her feel embarrassed as well.

He didn't even need to trigger the third step of the [Starry Sky Misstep], the eightfold damage, to end the battle.

The phoenix looked at Tang Rao with a piercing gaze, blood beginning to drip from the corner of its beak. As the drops fell, the sight turned everyone's eyes red.

Stepping backward, Stubborn turned around, trying to create enough distance to give his blade room to maneuver.

Although the King of Angels was merely a mark, the original entity was of God-level status, so the passage did not generate any laws of nature to obstruct her path forward.

"I have never heard of such a thing." After a moment of stunned silence, Ji Xueyan looked at the long-haired man with eyes growing increasingly scrutinizing.

In reality, both of them were cultivators. At such a close range, no matter how low Boss Ma lowered his voice, they could both hear him.

For some reason, the shadow of Nalan Tianyu always lingered in his mind. In his heart, if Nalan Tianyu was a crisp, delicious white pear he would risk his life to take a bite of, then Weisheng Zhimei was, in his eyes, an appetizing jackfruit.

This made him all the more startled. Qingzi and Luo Sheng were training him with such ruthless methods; they were truly risking their lives.

Liu Ruxi, standing to the side, noticed this situation and inwardly cursed. Lin Feng, that fellow, was like a fish in water the moment he entered such an environment; she marched over, radiating an aggressive aura.

The time for Wu Ling and He Yifeng’s wedding had finally arrived. According to the He family’s rules, both should have had a perfect wedding, but due to recent events, Wu Ling insisted on a wedding trip. The He family members understood the pain in her heart, and Old Master He finally nodded in agreement.

Qi Yu searched from tombstone to tombstone, until finally, a bouquet of white roses caught his sight.

Coming to her senses, Yang Ji immediately lifted the cup with trembling hands and shakily toasted Qiqi in return. The others, jolted awake by Chu Xuanzhi’s display of strength, hurriedly raised their glasses as well, not daring to say a word, and toasted in turn.

"Didn't you take a fancy to that woman from the Liu family? Set off immediately and go to the Liu residence to propose. If the Liu family refuses, force them to agree, no matter what means you use!" Old Master Gu said coldly.

As they neared the Chaotic Star Domain, the red line on the map provided by True Lord Zheng lit up. Xun Yi breathed a sigh of relief; fortunately, the map was still usable, as he had been quite worried about that beforehand.

"I'll tell you later." Shui Tianlan grinned, then looked at the others. Everyone else was engrossed in digesting the fruit, fully focused.

"What? He’s the manager, then what do I do?" Manager Huang stared at Lu Fei with a blank look.

The man pulled something from his bosom and said coldly, "Wear this." Having said that, he clamped his mouth shut and seemed to vanish into the darkness once more. Before Mo Zichen, a rift appeared.

Shui Tianlan and Ziyun Ye immediately stepped out of the tent and approached the old woman, seeing that she was still in the water, leaning against the stone wall behind her.

Walking to the edge of the Fire Cloud Heaven-Filling Formation, Yin Tianyu’s gaze fell upon a stooped old man. For a moment, his thoughts were in a whirlwind.

Just then, Yin Tianyu noticed Lei Xingyun begin to move. He saw him slowly cross his arms over his chest, waving his hands like wings. After about the time it takes for a cup of tea, Lei Xingyun opened his eyes.
