Volume 1, Chapter 22: He Wouldn't Hit His Wife When He Has an Episode, Would He?

"Everything is ready, let us set off now." Duan Feng held up his token and released a firework into the sky. This was a specialized communication method for the Duan family, which he usually used to signal the cultivators under his command.

Dai Mubai’s words caused the laughter of everyone from Canghui Academy to cease abruptly. Each of them bristled like cats with hackles raised, their faces darkening as they glared at him.

"Hey! Mu Ruofei! What are you saying! Did Lin Xiuze get some leverage on you to make you threaten him like this?" Suddenly, the voice of Jimo Zifeng emanated from Lin Xiuze’s mouth.

Zhao Shaoqing nodded, sitting obediently in the chair, her eyes fixed blankly on the plate not far away.

"To be fair, the son-in-law is actually quite decent. It was mentioned before that adoption would also be acceptable," Lady He shook her head.

Upon hearing this, Wang Lijuan was terrified. The events of the recent period had filled her heart with many misgivings.

The ice arrows shattered instantly upon striking the jagged rocks, and the surrounding temperature plummeted by more than a dozen degrees in that fleeting moment.

At the same time, the True Phoenix no longer held back. A formidable pressure, emanating from the depths of the True Phoenix’s soul, erupted suddenly, causing everyone present to tremble in heart-stopping fear.

Even so, as Face-Crafters, they possessed an unusual sense of superiority. Imagine, having mastered this craft, one could change into anyone’s face at will. In the visually-obsessed Moth Kingdom of Feiluochen, what a highly sought-after profession a Face-Crafter would be!

No matter the place, there is always at least one general store. Even if there are no inns, brothels, silk shops, pastry shops, stables, or grain merchants, there is always, at the very least, a general store.

The Apricot Grove Hall was filled with apricot trees on the floating island named Apricot Island. When the time came, Su Yan, the leader of this excursion to the Apricot Sea, cast a spell, and the apricot blossoms across the entire island burst into bloom in an instant.

Gritting his teeth, Jun Yan decided to trust his intuition and began to relax the blockages in his meridians.

After much deliberation, Ji Lingsheng walked to the edge of the cliff and sat cross-legged. Remaining calm before a towering precipice might just be a good way to temper one’s spirit.

Hua Jiu did not disturb Lu Mengmeng and walked softly toward the great formation. When Radish saw her, he jumped up excitedly, and Hua Jiu immediately signaled him to be silent.

Suddenly, several beams of white light flashed in the forest in the distance, followed by the sound of weapons clashing. Judging by the direction, it was near the cave where she was staying.

The soldier solemnly relayed a mission issued by Commander Lei: many demons were still lurking near the camp, and he ordered Li Mo to take her squad to clear them out.

Yet, he had navigated every danger, and in that secret chamber, he had seen the wooden fish, the jewels inside them, and Ge Tong, the "Great Herculean Eagle" who "lived" inside the Buddha statue.

Canceling his concealment, he ignored the onlookers who were beginning to disperse and slowly walked toward Yun Xi and the others.

Just as Qin Yang reached the entrance of the restaurant, he saw Xue Wantong, tall and elegant in an apron, carrying a tray of food out. After serving the customer, she looked up and saw Qin Yang.

"Your Majesty is too kind, but I cannot disregard the rules," Liu Chun said with a flat tone. He understood Zhu Di too well; if this fellow spoke so politely, he was surely up to no good, most likely looking to extort some favors.

She hadn't seen Pei Si receive any calls since she left the house, so it must have been a notification from the system by his side.

They decided to fight to the death, speaking with such tragic heroism that they were even willing to stain the golden hall with their blood, provided only that the old lord would protect their families.

"There is no reason; I just wanted to come to the capital to scout the location and get familiar with it. After all, our business will eventually expand to the capital, and now I have fulfilled that wish," Xu Yan replied indifferently.

Because in a world possessing supernatural abilities, money is nothing more than so-called "paper."

Just as Chu Qingya was regulating the spiritual energy within his body under the protection of the machine guards, he suddenly heard the terrified roars of wild beasts in the distance.

Because the night was late, Mother Liang and the children had long since retired. Qiao Yu helped Orange lie down, tucked her in, and then returned to her room to rest.

However, Guan Xi was unaware of the state of other third-tier cultivators; with his strength surging, he simply assumed it was a normal phenomenon after breaking through to the third tier.

Zhao Mian also regarded him as a young talent, but he simply could not agree with the foreign trade policies advocated by Liu Chun.

"The last time I saw you slay the Blade Mantis, you made a breakthrough in the heat of battle and even recovered from the wounds on your body."

Mu Ze did not even look at him; he only said softly to Qingge in his arms, "He struck you, and I have repaid him for you. Can you wake up now?" However, the person in his arms did not move at all, unable to see what his young master had done for him, nor hear the words his young master had spoken.

Regardless of whether it was crowded or not, since they had come, they couldn't just leave because of the crowd. Moreover, they had already made an appointment by phone. They might need to queue a bit longer at the payment desk, but otherwise, there was basically no need to wait.

The second option is to have her appear by my side. The Dull-Bottle and I would be fine, but "Yuncai" would certainly still find it very strange, and I suspect she would be quite terrified by the environment. The most troublesome part is that she would have to experience the dangerous journey ahead with us, which is absolutely out of the question.
