Volume 1, Chapter 28: You Shall Reside in the Regent's Mansion
The wind was not only powerful in strength but also possessed astonishing talent. Coupled with the relationship between Gu Yao and Ye Huan, Ye Huan naturally appointed him as the alliance leader.
Rumors spread, claiming that Chu Chen was not a warrior from the Realm of Light but hailed from another world, possibly one far stronger than the Realm of Light. His purpose here was said to be the conquest of the Realm of Light and the enslavement of its martial practitioners. At first, only the celestial-level experts from the major sects harbored such suspicions.
How could it be that Xu Qingchuan still had the nerve to send her a message? The very thought left Tang Luoluo deeply vexed.
At that moment, Tang Luoluo reached out her hand to open a cubicle door, but her hand suddenly froze mid-air.
Listening to the chants of those below paying homage to the new monarch, his heart felt as if it were being cut by a knife, almost causing him to stumble down the steps.
"It's not just the Ding Sheng Group; the Huang family’s foundation lies in Hejiang Province. Without roots in the imperial capital, the Wei family must have made a move too," Elder Yue observed with a cold smile, seeing through the situation more clearly.
The exact date had yet to be set, but Lin’s mother consulted the birth charts of Fu Jincheng and Lin Yixun and found a suitable day by year-end. It remained uncertain how the elder Fu would feel about it.
Fu Jincheng and Lin Yixun were husband and wife. Fu Jincheng’s assets were countless, and Lin Yixun was entitled to half of their joint property. Neither of them believed Fu Jincheng would be willing to part with his share.
“We’ll discuss this matter later,” he thought. Had he arrived a moment later and something happened to her and the baby, he would have hated himself dearly.
On the way back to G City, he had intended to visit Gao Yunjin but refrained, worried she might be burdened emotionally.
Aunt Niu saw his expression and smirked mischievously, her teasing, ambiguous gaze causing Mu Jinxi to twitch at the corner of her mouth.
“I truly didn’t expect to see you all here,” Wu Wei said, his spirits lifting slightly after enduring numerous setbacks, glad to see the comrades with whom he had once shared life and death.

Everyone was stunned. One person immediately turned back to the camp to report. Soon, a captain came out, questioned Chen Ao again, and with a grim expression ordered that Chen Ao be taken into the camp for detention.
Wu Wei glanced around and noticed that the examiner from the East District, A Dong, had already left. The table was indeed cleared. Feeling somewhat downcast, Wu Wei leaned back on the sofa to rest when his phone rang again. It was Li Shishi calling.
This vice-captain of both Bayern and the German national teams, though sporting typical Germanic features, was a kind soul who disliked speaking ill of others. Asking him to criticize a teammate outright would be difficult.
However, when the two below saw the life-origin crystal Gao Yang once touched, Xu Zeng’s face immediately darkened.
Seeing Qi Yang close his eyes in tacit consent, Ling’er no longer hesitated and placed her fingers on Qi Yang’s pulse.
Otherwise, an element creature of hero rank could easily clear most of Valrilla’s territory. Except for the central region, which was untouchable, no other area would stand against the Wind God.
Long Shute had already bypassed the entangled Swiss duo who had collapsed on the ground and chased the ball along the right flank of Naples' penalty area.
A burly man seemed unaccustomed to the fragrance, sneezing repeatedly. At that moment, two somewhat lecherous-looking men, bent over, were led inside.
PS: Go to sleep. The second and third updates will be posted by noon tomorrow. I've been adjusting my mindset these past few days, so please bear with me.
His invincible divine body had long since perfected the second stage but had yet to unlock the third. He vaguely sensed that unlocking the third stage would be a qualitative leap.
“Hmph! If he wants to make a fool of himself on stage, so much the better!” Seeing Ye Xianglun volunteer, Wu Mu scoffed coldly.
A million Demon Delusions and a million Avengers stood behind, clad in fine gear and weapons, forming a second line of defense.

Thinking of this, even though she had long since left danger behind, An Wan couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
A big family, indeed—just thinking about it was terrifying. They had gotten past the sister-in-law, but what about the brother-in-law?
Chen Bai alternated his gaze between the Dark Knight and the village chief, gauging their displeasure, but the village chief showed no sign of jest.
From his earlier conversation with the deputy commander, Xin Shouji could infer what the soldiers truly thought and naturally believed Tian Wuji’s words were no empty threat. Yet to surrender so easily left him unwilling.
“Look at this blood—it’s still warm,” Meng Yuwan frowned, pointing to the mottled bloodstains on the ground and spoke softly.
At that moment, a distant call came from Jiang Tao’s face. Everyone looked toward the source and saw over a dozen qin players flying in from the eastern sky. Judging by their mounts, all were three-star qin players.
“Husband, what should we do? Ashura is still in the Kunlun Realm. He said he wants to wait for you to return so you can face him in battle. If you fail to sever his lifeline, it will be hard to defeat him,” Xuan Luo said anxiously.
Under so many piercing gazes, Chen Xi showed no reaction. His expression was solemn as he stepped steadily into the banquet hall.
Qin Chuan spun wildly around, his longsword sweeping through the air with a whistling sound but once again tragically missed.
