Chapter 54: If you die, I will wear mourning clothes for you and take care of your family

Jiling was caught in a bear hug, leaning against Shen Yi's chest. His previously drifting heart suddenly steadied.

Shen Yi cupped Jiling's cheeks, his brows and eyes filled with tenderness. "Why are you here?"

Jiling placed a hand over the back of Shen Yi's hand. At a single glance, Shen Yi noticed something wrong with Jiling's fingers. His expression changed drastically as he gently pulled his hand over. "How did this happen? Were you caught in the crossfire?"

...

The coach headed all the way south without stopping, passing pedestrians coming and going. When it finally arrived at the parking lot, I discovered this was just a bustling metropolis, with no village in sight. I couldn't help turning my head to look at Xiao Xiyue.

The sailing warship began its descent. The drone operator piloted the communication drone toward the airspace above the enemy warship.

As she spoke, she looked on the verge of tears, acting as though Fatty had actually done something unspeakable to her. Fatty was left dumbfounded—could she really pull that off?

I narrowed my eyes in contemplation and looked back at the large willow tree at the entrance of the village. Its branches and leaves were unusually lush, and for some reason, I always felt something was amiss, so I called over Grandpa Huang to question him.

I took the three children to Dongzhou. Dongzhou is a tourist city boasting the beautiful West Lake, so taking the kids there to sightsee along the way served two purposes at once.

However, this casual address of "Young Master's Wife" planted a scheme in Wang Lan's mind nearby. She had heard Old Mother Wu say that Lin Hao was an Earth Realm powerhouse, and the young man just now had called Lin Hao "Young Master," which meant Lin Hao had a powerful faction backing him.

Chu Yunci's mind raced instantly, recalling carefully that he seemed to have never displayed the Tianyuan Town Ruler in front of outsiders, and even when using it, he mostly kept it as concealed as possible so no one would see.

Of course, to play it safe, after returning, Sister Yang invited Uncle Kun and several male employees from her own factory to boost her courage and serve as witnesses. Since they weren't going to a brawl, these male employees didn't refuse out of respect for the boss lady.

When dragged out, the first ray of sunlight shone red upon Li Xing's face, and he felt that he simply could not die such a death.

With a six-kilometer range, shells comparable to the 107 rocket artillery rained densely down upon the Qing dynasty's artillery battery.

As the words fell, Lin Huan lowered his head and planted a kiss on Feiyueye's red lips, bringing a flush of shyness to her face.

At this thought, many disciples rapidly dispersed to spread the word, while several disciples who were close to Feng Wu hesitated for a moment before shaking their heads and leaving as well.

The moment the tips of his shoes made contact with the piled-up corpses, a heaven-shaking bolt struck down abruptly. What fell into the river was no longer flesh and blood, but pieces of charred, shattered charcoal.

In front of Fang Chen, no one dared to be late, let alone absent. They all understood that everything they currently possessed came from the resources allocated to them by Fang Chen after he confiscated all the assets of the Fang family. Just as he could bestow those things upon them, he could just as easily strip away what they now owned.

For a time, all sorts of thoughts took shape in the minds of various people. Immortals symbolized eternal life—a temptation no one could resist.

Otherwise, how could Lu Yuan have made him unaware as he delivered a gemstone right before his eyes? Where did he acquire such a high-grade gemstone? And how did he know what was on his mind?

At this moment, everyone's gaze fell upon Chu Tian, gleaming with gratitude. Chu Tian had not only saved them, but also spared the lives of everyone on the entire island.

As for the Six Paths Ancient Beast, after Liang You rattled off so much in one breath, the confusion in his eyes not only failed to diminish, but seemed to have multiplied instead.

Heavenly Blade Song Que and Rogue Ning Daoqi—truly top-tier experts of the martial world. Joining forces, they could actually unleash such terrifying might. If not for him desperately pulling out the fifth form of the Cihang Sword Canon at the very end, he likely would have perished at the Song Clan today.

However, Han Lin was a filial son, and he had killed only because his mother was bullied. Shortly after his release from prison, however, his mother fell gravely ill, and the medical expenses were beyond what he could afford. Driven to desperation, he decided to kidnap a wealthy person to demand a ransom.
