Chapter 52: A Father Pays for His Son's Debts, Old Third Tang Makes a Scene in the East Courtyard

"Hey, hey, what is a young lady like you doing going to such a place of debauchery? You are not allowed to go." Fifth Mother grabbed Willow's arm, preventing her from leaving.

Not long after I entered the Cloud Sea Hotel, Huang Wei stepped out of the black Range Rover that had been following behind me. He hurried after me while pulling out his phone to dial a number.

Beside Tanjiro, someone rose from the ground and dusted the dirt off their clothes, at that moment witnessing an extremely astonishing sight.

I looked over again, though I had no idea what the Sect Master's Jade Seal looked like. Furthermore, I had no real concept of it, other than viewing it as a proof of identity.

"Yes, the rumor king wasn't actually spreading rumors. He simply wanted to cause panic through rumors, forcing a certain person's planned operation to be called off and aborted," Ran Sinian enlightened Qu Zichong.

Willow gave a hard push, but knowing that Qiu Qianjian wouldn't let her go, she changed the hand pressed against his chest into wrapping around his neck instead.

"Ahead? I said I came back to get things for Pei'er. Pei'er isn't used to the hospital pillows; she has to rest her head on the health pillow I bought her from Hong Kong to sleep comfortably, and also her skincare products..." Tao Cuifen said impatiently.

I was startled, wondering why he brought this up. Naturally, I still knew a thing or two about the Orthodox One sect. The predecessor of the Orthodox One sect was the Way of Peace; however, after the failure of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it evolved into the Way of the Five Pecks of Rice, which is to say, the Orthodox One sect.

As the voice faded, a massive fireball was instantly spewed from its mouth. The fireball rolled across the ground, scorching even the earth itself.

"Haier." Hua Shang appeared smilingly in Haier's room. Haier was sitting by the window with her chin resting in her hands, looking at the scenery outside.

Yan Jinshu's complexion was poor, and compounded by the fact that she had truly lost her memory, although her actions had no flaws, her filial affection and yearning for the elders of the Zhang family certainly lacked their former intimacy and naturalness.

"Master, but this airplane appeared so suddenly. Could it take us to some unknown place instead of the place we want to go?" I sat down beside him and voiced my doubt.

The more she thought about it, the more thorny Lin Ximei felt the matter was. Not a single person in the Li family was simple, and this knot had to be properly untied; otherwise, life for their Lin family would not be easy in the future.

Shen Xi persuaded him further, "If that's truly the case, there's nothing to be done about it. Can you stop your father from remarrying?"

"Madam, these licenses?" The clerk processing the licenses for Liu Rumei hesitated, stopping mid-sentence.

Looking down to find herself stark naked, she hurriedly wrapped herself in the blanket, reviewing the events of last night with lingering fear. Turning her inner gaze inward, she checked herself—nothing should have gone wrong, right?

However, Dongmei was also afraid that as an old woman going out alone, she would get confused scanning QR codes on her mobile phone and end up swindled and cheated.

Previously, Zhu Xiangru had watched them brewing tea and cleaning in the cabin, all of them submissive with lowered brows, not daring to even breathe heavily. Unexpectedly, the moment they made a move, every single one of them possessed extraordinary skills and superior martial arts, which gave him a shock. When he looked at Chen Diqiu again, the man still wore a smile, gently waving his folding fan and continually urging Zhu Xiangru to drink tea, maintaining an attitude of having nothing to do with the matter and keeping well aloof from it.

Xu Wan'er had never expected that Gu Wangqian could genuinely help the Xu family weather the crisis. Originally, her move was out of desperation; on one hand, the matter was somewhat connected to her, and on the other hand, her family's orders compelled her to seek help.

Ever since she found out that he was with Bai Ying'an, she and he had never spent time alone together, nor had they spoken a single word in private. In the current setting, both of them actually felt somewhat awkward.

Throughout the entire surgery, aside from the sound of the surgical blades requested by Xiao Yao, no one else spoke. Everyone was watching with rapt attention, while the three great VIPs of the hospital acted merely as nurses, completely sidelining the actual nurses.

The two chatted out of boredom, though Rogers seemed to have just woken up, constantly telling outdated jokes like a rambling old man. "Gentlemen, we've arrived!" Natasha reminded them.

Coulson was already a mess in the corner. Tonight, he had first witnessed the Ghost Rider, and now something even more formidable—none other than Mephisto, one of the Seven Princes of Hell. "You're saying you're a demon..." Coulson didn't even know how he managed to blurt out those words.

Perhaps from the very beginning, he shouldn't have deliberately tried to get close to her and understand her, seeing as she wasn't the real Bai Muqing.

I have always believed that if we entered Hami's army, we would be superior in every way to those who have never led troops before. I don't understand why His Majesty would rather let those people grope about blindly and slowly than allow us to take command.

Tears blurred Lin Feng's vision. Sis, are you my biological sister? Finding me one job wasn't enough, you had to find a second one, and you've even negotiated the terms! Have you ever considered my feelings? If it were just for a simple job, the compensation abroad is several times better than domestic.

"Splash..." A wave crashed against the Wangjiang Platform, sending up a massive spray of white mist before the crowd. Amidst the hazy mist, everyone felt as though a long tail resembling a giant python had appeared before their eyes, its body shimmering with crimson manes and golden scales, accompanied by a sound resembling the bellowing of an ox.

Watching the hurried figures of the four coming and going, Wang Yongqiang, Lin Heng, and Lin Han could not understand it at all. Although these three were engaged in jade mining, they were completely clueless about the actual value of the jade mine itself. Zhao Huan'an did not allow them to follow, telling them simply to wait here for his return.

Fang Zhong finally figured it out. It turned out they had taken a fancy to the fierce beast and casually tossed down a token demanding that he become a Buddhist disciple, then offered the fierce beast away as a tribute. How was this any different from robbery by force?

Even Shen Tian and Shen Bing, the brother and sister behind him, had reached the Divine Realm, which left Li Yan somewhat depressed.
