Volume One, Chapter 112: A Few Mad Titans Come to Claim Their Prize

Two days later, during the practical session in the medical department, Gu Jingshu once again came looking for trouble, accompanied by several senior students. This time, she cornered Lin Ranyan directly in the laboratory, pointing at the anatomical model on the dissection table. "I heard your theoretical knowledge is solid? Perfect. A few of us have some questions about the anatomical structure of the female reproductive system. Care to explain?"

Someone nearby quickly chimed in, "Yeah, I heard you know some folk remedies from the countryside. Maybe you have unique insights on this too?"

This was clearly intentional provocation. The female reproductive system has always been a challenging topic in teaching, and they were certain that Lin Ranyan, a girl from the countryside, wouldn’t be able to explain it clearly.

Lin Ranyan glanced at the model and calmly began to speak...

Back in her tent, she washed her face with water. Earlier, the blood and saliva of the brutes had splattered on her, making Wu Mian feel nauseous.

Su Jin tensed her body, pressing Gu Xuanjin firmly and whispering, "Don’t move yet, let’s watch how things unfold." Judging by the sounds, not many people had come.

Even with the Gu family’s strong military backing, after three months of salvage operations, this was the limit. Under such circumstances, the authorities had basically declared the case dead. Hence, the military had withdrawn from the search and rescue, effectively giving up.

Originally, the plan was to have Erhuo appear today, but due to an emergency at home, there was no time to code. For now, this little bit will have to suffice—darling, bear with it. Erhuo will come tomorrow. As for the Lan Shan side story, do you think it’s better to end it after the competition when He Chen arrives, or should we continue and include the wedding?

Hua Hao was in good spirits, showing no other emotions despite needing to brew the Barrier-Breaking Pill. After all, with his cultivation level, making the pill was not particularly difficult.

For Bu Xu, renovation was something that required help from his cousin, but for the professionals, it was a tangible achievement. Whenever there was a chance, they would immediately seize it.

Han Xiao was somewhat reluctant, but under her mother’s persistent tug on her sleeve, she grudgingly called out.

Ji Jie clutched the handkerchief tightly with both hands, forcing a smile onto her face, though it was somewhat stiff.

At first glance, the four dishes appeared perfect in color, aroma, and taste. Whether it was the glossy Dongpo pork, the whole sweet and sour fish, the dry-fried pork liver, or the tender boiled cabbage, all made the guests salivate and eager to taste them immediately.

Ye Sike, seeing that Mi Zixuan ignored her, sulked and ignored him in return, making the journey suddenly dull.

That year, there were no longer many people in the teaching institute; those who had awakened had long since left. Yet Gu Lingyun, Long Yaotian, and Yan Renhuang were still in their moments of enlightenment, and even Feng Huan remained unconscious.

Since Xue Ne had asserted dominance over the Mu brothers last time, no one dared to cause trouble anymore. Even those who considered it quietly abandoned the idea after witnessing Xue Ne's ruthless treatment of the Mu brothers.

"There are many kinds of bonds without attachments. The crucial issue is not whether such bonds existed from the beginning, but whether people want to establish, maintain, and cherish these bonds," she said offhandedly.

At these words, the cultivators immediately realized the source of the horror. It turned out that all of this had nothing to do with the coffin carved from the ancient immortal dragon tree, but rather with this corpse.

Fang Jiaxue’s body trembled as she instinctively tried to retreat, but her shoulder was firmly grasped by Sun Xinxin, and she could not break free.

“Daoist, your skills are indeed impressive!” Fire Cloud Daoist praised Mu Bai. Though he wished to devour Mu Bai alive, upon witnessing Mu Bai’s command over the black vortex, he couldn’t help but voice his admiration.

“What? The seal can’t be opened?” Eastern Deputy Sect Leader Dong Liuqi suddenly raised his voice. If the seal couldn’t be opened, how would future disciples attempt to refine Zhu Rong’s blood?

The deal initially agreed upon had already expired twice. He truly could not do it. Watching their joyous family reunion, he hoped, perhaps selfishly, that they might spare him a fraction of their affection.

To Yu Jiuzhong, without Bai Ye, these people were indifferent to him. Of course… if possible, he didn’t want to come to this point. Therefore, he had not planned to do so from the start.

Although she didn’t raise her head, she could clearly feel Lou Yuting squinting at her, staring unblinkingly.

Chu Fan was very surprised that Ye Qingqing had never learned it before. Ye Qingqing felt helpless—indeed, the client had never learned it.

Ye Qingqing returned to her treehouse with Sisi. She lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

All those years, torn between family and lover, it was a struggle. Now, three years later, having finally conceived Mo Hanxiao’s child, putting aside all grievances to prioritize Mo Hanxiao over her family… who knew? Who knew it would be all for nothing, perhaps forever.

“I didn’t.” Li Li answered without hesitation. She knew her own family well. Back in the dorm, she was the worst among them, very insecure. But now, she wondered when she ever became so self-righteous.

Gan Qingyao turned around to rub her hands and glanced at Mu Haolan, but her back was turned to him.

Although the child was occasionally a bit stubborn and had a slight mischievous aura, their personality was fundamentally kind and steady. Back in school, she had felt that compared to Pei Zihao, Xi Chen was more suitable for Yaoyao.

“Maybe,” Su Xiyan said simply, then fell silent, lost in thought.

Gao Xiang beside Xu Zhe told him everything, explaining the reasons behind their actions.

If it weren’t for Luo Tian, Long Hao would never have drawn his sword. To him, any unnecessary movement would hinder his progress.

Still, this enabled him to reach the peak of the Divine King level. Afterward, as the entire universe became his star realm, this Star-Forge Dragon King could traverse the cosmos at will.

Reassembled, the special police looked at Yang Jian differently—from disdain to admiration, even awe. They were straightforward: if you were stronger and capable, they respected you. Clearly, Yang Jian had earned their recognition.

When the internal energy circulated through the eighteen major meridians, Zhao Ming opened his eyes, gleaming with sharp light, exhaling a breath of turbid air.

It was extremely difficult for a simulated spirit treasure to upgrade unless an authentic innate spirit was refined into its core.

After speaking, the black-robed werewolf jumped down from the flying dragon’s back, landing from dozens of meters up. Apart from making a large pit in the ground, there was no other issue.

Wu Tie said nothing unnecessary, responded once, then darted forward to catch up with the three ahead.

More than five months later, a weary-looking young man appeared at the edge of the swamp, running swiftly to stop halfway up a mountain.

At dawn, following the scent of food, Guima found Shi Yuan roasting meat. A faint gleam appeared in his eyes.
