Volume One, Chapter 42: Shao Dang, Stop Being a Tagalong
She had said before that as long as those who came from Huai Island did not commit heinous crimes or break the law, she would protect them.
Shen Cheng soothed Jiang Yingyue, set her down, and then looked up at the three magic-suppressing hunters before him.
A black Bentley suddenly drove up, stopping precisely in front of him, effectively separating him from Lu Ying.
She had only come downstairs to hunt for some snacks, only to find all her brothers standing together in the villa’s lobby.
The distance between the two sides was about a meter, filled with highly compressed telekinetic energy. Like a raging tide, it crashed against Shen Cheng frantically, yet it could not shake him in the slightest.
"Alright, go call your brother and sister!" Qin Ye sat up and stretched, having enjoyed a very comfortable afternoon nap.
"Sigh! Don't even mention it. I went out to play today, got caught in the rain, and ended up with a cold." Gao Yuan’s health had improved significantly, but he did not want to get involved in Wang Tao’s affairs anymore.
His resume was not thick, consisting of only two pages. However, the pile of academic certificate copies was quite substantial, totaling over a dozen sheets. This was rather startling; a normal person would have at most one, while graduate or doctoral students were usually the ones to show off so much.
Time is the most ruthless thing of all. As time passes, it eventually wears away the good, leaving behind only resentment and bitterness.
Where should the rest of the story regarding the Luo family’s Mrs. Dong, Luo Baiying, Luo Shiyan, Luo Maitong, Old Madam Luo, Nanny Tang, Miss Ji, Shiliu, and the others begin?
Qin Su looked around inside and out, inspecting every room and piece of furniture before finally setting her mind at ease. Although she hadn't visited the nursing home Qiu Jingye mentioned, the conditions here were surely the best available.
She reflected that it hadn't seemed to rain at all since she returned to the capital. The ritual at Lingyun Temple also included prayers for rain.
Unable to bear it any longer, Su Fengnuan turned to Madam Su and listed several dishes, naturally the ones Ye Shang loved to eat.
"Uh, I’m not very good at judging people, but I think the old master is wise and sagacious. I..." Ding Changsheng was usually quite eloquent, but at this moment, he found his words lacking no matter how he tried to organize them. Especially under Xie Jiuling’s deep, piercing gaze, he lacked the courage to continue playing the rogue.
Upon arriving at Lianyun Peak, Lin Yu did not alert anyone, instead calling for Song Yue, who was presiding over alchemy.
Hearing about the base’s early childhood education methods, the partners’ faces turned dark. Was there any need to keep observing? The policies and management here were flawed, but this was beyond their power to change or resist; the powers that be were too influential, and their own arms, though not exactly thin, were no match for such might.
After hanging up the phone, Weng Lanyi looked at Wu Yuchen sitting across from her and said, "Look, I tried to help you, but he didn't fall for it. What do we do? I want to find him too, but the problem is I don't know where he is. He’s very vigilant now. I think you’d better stop looking for him and let things cool down for a while."
Suddenly, the old woman smiled at me. That smile was incredibly eerie, and the sight of it terrified me.
The sound of something hitting the wall never stopped, and I vaguely heard other things as well.
Furthermore, it was evident that Beiyixuan’s concern for Jing Yunruo far exceeded that of an ordinary couple.
None of the three people present had ever been to such a place. All the liquor there required meeting certain criteria to be purchased, and the entire transaction process was verified by the system, so none of them could buy any alcohol.
He had come to the Guan family two years ago. If not for their shelter, he would have died long ago. Hearing the commotion outside, he wanted to go out and help, but he was powerless. Never had he hated those who had crippled his legs more than at this moment.
But upon receiving this large sum of money, Qi Yusheng hesitated for a moment, then handed the money back, asking for it to be exchanged for five one-yuan notes and one five-yuan note instead.
Seeing his eldest son in such agony, he roughly understood what had happened; after all, he had been through it himself.
With the Ten Domains Grand Competition currently underway, the appearance of a Blood Tiger Elephant left everyone feeling deeply puzzled.
As Lu Yuan leaned in to look at the Green Turtle, the Flame Tiger brought its massive head closer, its eyes filled with affection.
Three months ago, everyone was a commoner; three months later, others were scholars, while he remained a commoner, not even a pupil. His heart was bitter, but he didn't speak of it.
A luxury car was parked at the entrance of Tongyi Hospital. Lu Heng got out and immediately opened the door for Bai Zihua. Although the big boss was Ye Xingtian, everyone familiar with their family knew that Bai Zihua was the even bigger boss—this "big boss" referring to her status within the family.
Bai Ling’er returned with Madam Bai. She hadn't said a word since they left the Great Ming military camp.
"Please calm down and come over here for an investigation." Mo Mo stepped forward; she had already guessed the man's identity—it had to be Wang Qiang. "Please, you must find the killer, won't you?"
A flash of lightning struck Wan Tongtian’s heart as a purple figure appeared in his mind. He wondered to himself, "Could it be him?"
He didn't even fully understand his own physical condition. What was certain was that the mysterious person had performed some unknown modification on him, causing his combat power to fluctuate unpredictably.
But at this moment, for Ye Feng, the situation was completely reversed: his physical body had achieved the innate state first, while his cultivation was still one step away from the innate realm.
In an instant, those watching the voting curve saw the votes for Zhang Xueru, A-Yuan, Xiao Yuzhou, and other YG trainees soar in a J-shape, engaging in a fierce battle.
After the system approved the effect, Romantic Journey remained calm on the surface, but inwardly sneered: "This fool, in order to lure me into his trap, actually let the system temporarily revoke this weapon for nothing! To abandon such a huge advantage and not use it—does he really think he’s a rookie?"
"It’s too remote here; there aren't even many people around. Look at the bloodstains here." Mo Mo pointed to the ground.
Duan Lang, Dugu Ming, and the others, who were the first to react, had no time to think. Seeing Xiong Ba and the others in such a vulnerable state, how could they let such a heaven-sent opportunity slip by? They immediately incited the onlookers, wanting to strike while the iron was hot and finish them off.
