Volume 1, Chapter 62: Mother Sanlin and the Old Woman

As her words trailed off, Mother Sanlin swiftly launched an attack toward Pei Jing.

She received a sharp flick on the head. "Hush, don't talk nonsense. This is used for carrying people to fly, just like our cars." When they arrived, Li Bai's car had already been put away by Lan Xin.

"Then I'll tell you when I have definite news." Immediately after, Leng Ruoyi caught sight of Fang Xiaoxiao using that photograph of Li Bai as her screen saver.

Inside the underground command post of the Japanese invaders in Taiwan, utter chaos reigned; it was a scene of total disorder, as their previous headquarters had been bombed flat.

Ye Fei had yet to decide whether to share the news about Mata with Penelope. With her such a straightforward and fiery personality, if she blurted out the secret and provoked unnecessary trouble, it would become a massive headache.

Another burly man attempted to launch a sneak attack from Yue Li's blind spot, never expecting that Yue Li would nimbly dodge it. Moving like a ghost, she flashed behind him and delivered a fierce kick to his back. The burly man spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the side.

Seeing that the teppanyaki grill was sufficiently heated, he drizzled refined oil across the scorching iron surface. As the oil reacted to the heat, golden beads of oil began to bubble up. Only then did he unhurriedly place the skewers of squid onto the grill.

Leng Xuexin smiled. It was like the spring sun shining upon melting snow, radiantly brilliant. Gone was her usual icy demeanor; this heartfelt smile from the iceberg beauty was breathtakingly gorgeous.

Thinking of last night's performance—how she had managed to safely pull through despite its extreme difficulty—she decided she might as well trust her once more today.

After Li Bai finished the first two songs he had sung at the bar, completing his warm-up, his alluring voice was directed straight into the microphone.

Chenchen tilted her head in thought, seemingly replaying everything Li Bai had told her earlier. Then, she nodded very solemnly.

The Undefeated General's build was not particularly bulky, but its physique was robust and sturdy. Whether out of fear of being eaten or for some other reason, once it entered the arena, it completely discarded its turtle-necked posture. Like a general heading into battle, it charged forward courageously, pecking Luo Maoxian's fighting rooster until it was too cowed to accept the challenge.

Looking at the ruined rubble of the Blood Martial Hall—with all three blood lakes completely absorbed by him—Chen Nan felt genuinely embarrassed toward Shangguan Xue and the others.

Artillery fire from the eastern and western cities was now raining down. Obscured by the city walls, no thick smoke was visible, yet earth-shaking cannon roars filled the air, followed by dozens of round stone projectiles whistling down to smash into the ground. Once more, men and horses were overturned, shields shattered, and spears broken, carving out dozens of blood-soaked paths amidst mangled flesh and gore.

It was well past midnight before he finally managed to handle the mountain of miscellaneous aftercare chores, and Gu Yi returned home to rest with a mind full of heavy thoughts.

When Su Yao looked at Wang Guiyong again, her disdain deepened even further. Initially, hearing him defend Tian Chunfang outside the door had added a few points to her impression of him, but seeing him completely ignore his own mother's assault earned him a massive black mark in her book.

"Thank you... thank you all." Looking at those completely unreserved, smiling faces, Yun Luofi's eyes suddenly grew hot with emotion.

Song Keke tilted her head slightly to look at her and couldn't help laughing: "The one lying outside the door is you...?" No wonder today's glass door had shattered so thoroughly.

It was just that sometimes he was so overbearing that in his presence, she always felt a sense of inferiority, believing she was unworthy of this man.

Yet, no matter what, they never could have imagined that the Exalted Lord Yuxi would possess such a sweet voice. When they raised their heads to look upon Yuxi's features, everyone felt their worldview being thoroughly refreshed once more.
