Volume 1, Chapter 25: Public Execution of the "Liar"

“Thank you. Please take good care of her during this final month.” As they entered the red sandalwood door into the room filled with the smell of medicine, Dongfang Ziyan spoke in a low voice.

The evidence was conclusive and more than sufficient to arrest the suspect. The next step was the arrest itself. After an overnight operation, they apprehended the suspect that afternoon. With a black cloth hood over his head and handcuffs binding his wrists, he was taken into the interrogation room, where Li San and Tang Long questioned him.

Hearing himself addressed as “Young Master Ouyang,” Ouyang Liufeng felt utterly miserable, as though he had been abandoned by the entire world. Only afterward did he remember her current appearance and identity, and his mood finally eased.

She sat up, and a white outer garment slipped from her body. There was no need to ask whose it was—it clearly belonged to Ouyang Liufeng.

“Old Master, it’s not that I don’t want to introduce you to her. It’s just that she has no intention of making her identity public,” Zhou Xiangqian said helplessly.

Su Lanzhi immediately became concerned. What sort of person was Liang Yubo? He was infamous for being a scoundrel. Su Lanzhi had never doubted Liang Yubo’s abilities, but when it came to his character, she did not believe him in the slightest.

Forget it. Since I’m already here, I might as well beat up the Duan family’s old ancestor first. I’ll make a name for myself—then let’s see whether you still dare come looking for trouble in the future.

“Give it to me!” Seeing his solemn expression, Can Hong hesitated for a moment before slowly handing it over.

“What about Auntie? Father, how is Auntie doing now?” Luo Huixue immediately thought of Consort Jin. No matter what, Consort Jin had always treated her well.

Yet Luo Huixue could not stop wondering what that filthy business Jing Liuguang had mentioned actually was—what could possibly have caused the Emperor to place Consort Jin and Jing Liuyun under house arrest?

Looking at Lin Qingqing’s sorrowful face across from him, Su Cheng felt miserable as well. “Qingqing, do you really care that much about Ou Yuanlan?” he asked again.

“I’m not very busy. I’ve been refining a teleportation device lately!” The God of Space took out a bead and tossed it to Qin Yun.

Li Xiaoyu was wearing a very short, alluring nightdress that revealed her slender, fair legs. She was completely absorbed in painting her toenails.

After saying that, she took a Chanel T-shirt from her bag. It looked almost brand-new. She knew without being told who I had asked her to bring it for.

Moreover, Moke had always been renowned for his imposing manner. Thus, in his presence, even the upper echelons of the Heavenly Temple did not dare behave recklessly in the slightest.

“What!” Ji Tianyi had never imagined that Jiang Chen’s sword energy would force him back once again. This time, however, none of his fingers had been severed; he simply still could not seize Jiang Chen.

“It’s not that I’m clever. I just thought the Holy Son couldn’t possibly be that stupid,” Feng Yufei said with a smile.

The Black Bear Monster had been back for some time. Recalling those days, he could not help feeling somewhat wistful. Once upon a time, he had friends with whom he could drink and feast on meat, but in recent days he had lost all desire for such things and ate only plain fruit.

In the Land of the Koreans, public criticism, contempt, and disdain toward China and traditional Chinese medicine had fallen by seventy or eighty percent. Many people were even deleting the things they had posted in the past.

The Han family’s emotions had begun to change. Zhou Qing was the first to soften. Qin Zihao’s invitation to dinner had left her with a favorable impression, and her attitude had already begun to waver.

Only Mo Jin, sitting beside them, said nothing. She merely kept chewing lemons in silence. After finishing one, she even secretly reached out to take another.

After saving the photographs on her phone to her own album, Dai Yiman selected one that was relatively clear. After thinking it over, she decided on a profile shot.

When Wu Ma saw that Lin Yuxue’s fever had reached thirty-nine degrees, she immediately contacted the family doctor in a panic. At the same time, she secretly wondered why Huo Chiguan had repeatedly failed to answer his phone.

Her hands were strong, and aside from the fracture in her foot not yet having healed, most of her injuries had recovered. Even the bandage on her forehead had been removed.

In an instant, Cui Yu seemed to fire several bullets at Su Yue in succession, sending Su Yue scrambling for cover amid the hail of gunfire.

She noticed nothing unusual and continued knocking her head rhythmically, each time bouncing back the moment her forehead struck the thermos, then repeating the motion again and again.

Zhang Jiayin had originally been reluctant to owe anyone a favor and wanted to refuse, but Huang Zitao said she could treat it as employee housing.

Upon seeing the safe, Yuan Piaopiao smiled disdainfully. She could open a technologically advanced safe like this even with her eyes closed. In no time at all, she began her performance.

Yu Huan had cheated during their marriage, so there was nothing wrong with her asking for a house. It was just that returning now would inevitably remind her of all the moments she and Yu Huan had shared in the past, and she could not bear it.

Lin Yuxue first requested leave from the coffee shop where she worked part-time. When she returned to the villa and saw that Huo Chiguan was already back, she decided to tell him as well.

Only after the enemy warship left its faster-than-light state could it enter the range of an interstellar threat. While traveling at faster-than-light speed, it was impossible for defensive cannons moving at the speed of light to hit it.

Naturally, such an excuse could not stop the wedding. In the end, Cheng Jinghuan still had to marry Zong Jue.

Luo Changcheng’s eyes were like brilliant stars in the dark of night, shining with a faint light in the distant sky.

As for the others, none of them spoke. They simply stared at him. Even Cang Yuntao and the others wore expressions of disbelief.

Following Helen Ye’s directions, Wu Ming found the Western restaurant in the center of Kaiyang City. He had intended to walk straight in, but the attendant at the entrance stopped him. Only then did Wu Ming realize that the restaurant was no ordinary place—it actually accepted reservations only.

Demon King Fruit Tree: Price—four hundred million. Maturation period—three hundred and sixty-five days. It bears fruit once a year, producing one fruit each time. The fruit contains supreme dark power. After consuming it, one may comprehend a dark-type martial technique, ranging from the lowest Profound rank to the highest Heavenly rank.

Zhou Xiao had already seen that although the rules appeared fair, they had in fact been tailor-made for the four great sect masters.

However, many idle people were squatting off to one side. They neither bought nor sold anything, seeming to be waiting for someone.

The Azure Moon Roar let out a deep, subdued growl before obediently lowering itself to the ground, making it easier for Yun Tian to touch its head. The fierce glint in its twin eyes also gradually faded.

That was why Lingling Yaoyao had earlier chosen to take Wu Ming away temporarily from the fate of possibly being discovered. She was not actually worried that Wu Ming himself would be exposed; she was afraid that his secret would be uncovered, ultimately placing his life in danger.

As flashes of magical radiance appeared one after another, the high-ranking wizards traveling with the Astrological Observatory also emerged nearby. They watched the approaching Corpse-Mound Demon in the distance warily, and some had already begun preparing their spells in advance.
