Volume 1, Chapter 68: Luring the Snake out of Its Hole

"What? Do I need to report to you about where I go, you clingy scoundrel?" Zhang Yunfei retorted.

If they were truly remnants of the Zhen clan, still harboring thoughts of avenging their master after the master's death, how could they possibly not understand the true intentions of the Zhen clan?

Just as Liu Huaiyong finished speaking, Chen Junmei and Ruxuan also walked into the room in a hurry. Ruxuan was holding Anya, and a subtle uneasiness hung on their faces. It seemed they had also discovered that the villa was surrounded and had come looking for Liu Huaiyong.

It was evident that Leng Mu was pale, his eyes devoid of any spirit, and his figure emaciated—clearly exhausted in both body and mind.

That night, Princess Mandala finally had a showdown with the Xuananyuan clan. She knelt before the Xuananyuan clan and recounted every detail of the past three months. The Xuananyuan clan felt deeply regretful, but there was nothing that could be done.

"Master, Yilan swears allegiance unto death and will never betray you." The possibility of her life blooming once more was entirely thanks to July, and she could tell that July's identity was extraordinary. She trusted her own choice.

Watching Wen Yinrao's gradually distorted face, I paused, preparing to walk over to her side. But before I even took a step, Wen Yinrao reached out and pushed me away forcefully.

The rain grew increasingly ferocious. Those arrow-like raindrops slammed against the wooden roof of the carriage, their irregular patter somewhat unsettling to the mind.

Yuanchun wore the court attire of a first-rank imperial concubine, her face round and her expression humble. Perhaps because her figure was somewhat slender, or perhaps because the court attire had been tailored in a rush, the robes seemed a bit too large for her.

"The evening wind is cool," I said, sighing as I spoke. "Don't stay on the terrace, come inside." Hearing this, the maid immediately nodded and followed my footsteps, soon seating herself beside the cloud couch. "Your friendship is good after all," she remarked, slipping the silver coins beneath the pillow.

Pulling Hakudoshi along, Naraku prepared a grand entrance with powerful visual effects. Just as Inuyasha and the others were fretting that they couldn't even catch a whiff of his exhaust, the sky in the distance suddenly changed color. Monstrous aura filled the air and dark clouds rolled in, transforming the landscape from afternoon into dusk within moments.

The emergency building looked busy and completely normal. Uncle Wan slowly threaded his way through the bustling crowd, instinctively feeling that something was amiss.

After Shen Qingyan and the others left, Cai Jiayi returned to the dormitory. She simply didn't want to face them.

The armored warrior in black nodded submissively, sending the psychic away, and then muttered a string of words to the fish-like humanoid before turning and diving into the cave.

The crucial point was that everyone knew this lord was the one behind it, yet nobody could do anything to him. Even the big boss merely remarked that since he was in a bad mood, letting him vent was only right.

Du Ting wiped the sweat from his forehead, threw another glance at Cen Li, and shouted for everyone to gather around.

"Damn it!" Ikki Kurogane had only just rejoiced before Shizuku Kurogane beat him once again to the point of having no room to counterattack. Victory and defeat had already reversed several times between the two, but this time Ikki knew he had no more moves left to reverse the tide.

Having heard her own mother say that, how could she not understand what her mother meant by those words? Seeing her mother looking like this, she naturally grasped the implication behind what was being said to her right now.

After everyone had spent a quiet night resting, someone knocked on the doors one by one to wake everyone up early in the morning. Once they were all packed and settled, Mo Dexuan treated them to a hearty breakfast before sending them down the mountain along with their machinery, naturally following the private path he had carved out behind the house.

Cao Dingjiao rose from his chair, abandoning the Duke of Wei's residence behind him as he strode outside, with Cao Huachun hurrying to follow.

Even Lin Kai had only mastered broths combining 6 pairs, or 12 kinds, of ingredients. Furthermore, dishes cooked with such broths were generally served last and diners were expected to taste them at the very end.

They hurriedly ran back to watch the replay, but when they clicked on it, they found that the replay wasn't available yet.

For comedic effect, the production team even thoughtfully added pop-up captions next to Yan Zhi: [Bad Lower Back].

At this moment, both top laners found their teleport locations almost simultaneously. Two teleports dropped down, and the bot lane instantly gathered enough players for a game of mahjong.

Beside the prison cart, Terie Rie and Isokazu Komaharo were tied up with ropes, their eyes filled with disbelief.

With a horizontal sweep of his palm, deflecting a fireball hurtling from the flank, Pain Tendo suddenly sensed a massive surge of energy fluctuation and shifted his gaze.

Among the disciples, Cheng'er and Di Guanglei had studied under Dugu Qiubai the longest and possessed the most complete knowledge systems, yet they could only solve a 3x3 Rubik's cube and were utterly incapable of solving a 4x4 one.

"Would you like to take a look? Your own kind are all up on the moon. I am not lying to you; the ancestors of the werewolves have all returned to my kingdom."

A-Li discovered that Huowu's giant panda could actually speak human language, and in fluent Sichuan dialect at that.

The Yuhuatai Gathering concluded with Mu Renqing purging his sect of renegades, and the Huashan Gui lineage was henceforth erased from the martial arts world, spreading Di Guanglei's name far and wide.

The offensive launched by Shen Yu and his party instantly froze those whose minds had been clouded by obsession. They never expected that a plan so foolproof would end up in such a state.

If not for this, how could historical China possibly secure its title as the safest country in the world while surrounded by formidable enemies?

Before they knew it, the eve of the Spring Festival had arrived. Yu Boyan had originally planned to drive her back to Haicheng himself, but unexpected business at the company suddenly delayed him.

To be honest, he had never seriously considered the matter of taking the college entrance examination. After all, he had only one purpose in coming to school: to protect Bai Muxue. As for whether he took the exams or went to college, he simply didn't care.

One could say that although Xu Jingyuan held no title of princess, she strolled in and out of the inner palace without restriction and moved haughtily among everyone else, differing very little from an actual princess.

"Sigh..." Tu Yujing couldn't help letting out a sigh, paused to look Shen Xin up and down, and finally spoke amid much hesitation.
