Volume 1, Chapter 28: The Eldest Sister Has Come Looking
Lou Nanzhi, who had been studying the menu, widened her eyes and looked at Wei Guohong after hearing her words.
Seeing Lou Nanzhi’s bewildered expression, Wei Guohong smiled.
"Nanzhi! Look at me, I’m always so impatient. You go ahead and order; once the food is served, we can talk it over slowly."
Lou Nanzhi knew that Wei Guohong hadn’t sought her out just to exchange pleasantries, but under normal circumstances, divorce was not something Wei Guohong should be meddling in.
As she watched Lou Nanzhi focus on the menu, Wei Guohong rubbed her hands together beneath the table.
Her son, Xiaoshuai, was already twenty-five years old and approaching the age of marriage. Having grown up without a father...
However, Ye Lengfeng insisted that Ding Ziyan go to class tomorrow, maintaining that no matter what happened, she must not neglect her responsibilities.
Truth be told, the lands in the northern region of Jingzhou were indeed peculiar. Given their speed, they should have already traversed half the territory, yet there was no sign of the human race. It was truly hard to believe; had the humans abandoned this land?
If one could uncover the backstory of the Yunkui Middle School dungeon, perhaps they would understand the reason for Ye Jing’s coma.
"Stop talking nonsense. If I needed help with cooking, I would have come to you directly instead of him." Lin Hu didn't give Shazhu a chance to ask further and walked away.
"In the future, if anyone encounters a weasel or fox spirit asking for 'conferment,' you can simply tell it that it looks like a human." Gu Jingexuan’s words left the audience in the livestream confused.
Jin Liangyu: I don't know whether to say her father still has a childlike heart or that he went there just to be annoying.
However, Tang Yan told Ji Chu that when his mother planted the seeds, she had calculated the expected yield, but when it came time to weigh the harvest, the result was far from the estimate.
As one of the many noble clans above the Treant race, with only three High Gods left—and one of them dead—they were on par with the current Demigod race.
"Oh, oh... but Columbina, have you misunderstood something?" Jingliu looked at Columbina, who was radiating a dangerous aura, and couldn't help but feel a bit afraid.
Those who heard it understood that Prince Ansu’s claim about the Auguna Empire conspiring from within to seize the Holy Light City was merely a lie; it was highly likely that those troops had come with Ansu. He truly was a vicious bastard, entering as an envoy while leaving his army outside.
Neither He Man nor Enderida seemed to expect Maeve to be so enthusiastic. They immediately invited Fide to take a seat. This banquet was held for Fide alone, and Ayana stood behind Fide’s seat as his attendant.
Suddenly, the main door was kicked open, and a surge of overwhelming presence flooded in. Lin Yu was startled, thinking the Liu family had launched an attack, and hurriedly stood up to meet the threat.
The Zhao family lacked such a background, but as a family of array masters, their power could not be ignored.
Following behind the bosses who were already directing their subordinates, Yang Chong arrived at the cubicle prepared for him.
Just as they were about to pass through the final building and reach the city wall, four Demon Eye mercenaries were standing right by the stairs leading up to the ramparts, preparing to ascend.
Her movements did not escape Bai Ling’s handsome eyes. He saw her cheeks flush slightly as she tried to hide her panic, her gaze deliberately avoiding him while stealing glances to see if he had noticed.
Hearing this, Lu Xingzhou turned to look at her with surprise, then let out a hearty laugh. "Ha, that would be too suffocating!" Noticing her hair blowing wildly in the wind, he couldn't help but reach out to smooth it for her.
When Ye Feng discovered the Wind-Control Pearl, Song Yulong also realized that Ye Feng had found it. The true essence energy hidden deep within the pearl immediately erupted.
"I have it." Du Meng pressed her index and middle fingers together against her brow. A cyan halo formed at her fingertips and drifted slowly toward Liansheng. Liansheng realized that Du Meng had condensed all the incantations and hand seals regarding the Five Elements Evasion Technique from her mind into that sphere of magical power.
Zhou Feifan spread his hands. "Besides, I didn't truly defeat him. If he had persisted in attacking me at the end, I wouldn't have been able to block any of his strikes with my energy levels at that time. He actually let me win." Zhou Feifan said with a smile.
Because one must never be careless with a pill furnace—a good one can yield twice the result with half the effort, while a bad one ruins the quality of the medicine—good pill furnaces are more precious than alchemists in the world of alchemy.
After all, this was China. If this were the Bear Country, a young man who dared to speak to him like that would have already been decapitated.
For now, I can only pin my hopes on these skills that can be upgraded to level four. My level three skills are: Charm, Infinite Energy, Sharp Eyes and Ears, Accelerated Healing, and Gale Step.
"Zixuan Wuyu is one of the ten great young masters of the Xuanhuang Continent, and his father is a God King. It is no surprise that Lu Ruyan and Jiang Tianwei went to participate in the selection."
Zhou Feifan’s eyebrows twitched, as if he had an idea. "How about... you accompany me to visit your school?" Zhou Feifan asked tentatively.
During this period, the Shen family had suffered many setbacks and realized that their control over the Nanyu Kingdom was weakening. If they didn't take the initiative, they would find themselves in an increasingly passive position.
To keep her father from suffering imprisonment, she might truly end up following all of Fu Kang’s arrangements.
The entire car was filled with a sweet, cloying atmosphere. Wen Yu snuck a glance at Wen Qiao, and when she caught him, he didn't shy away but smiled at her. Wen Qiao’s face turned crimson, even her earlobes flushing pink.
One must know that during the ambush on the Citigroup and other capital groups, there were several times he thought the operation would fail, which would not only deal a heavy blow to Future Capital but also implicate the three companies providing the funds: Weilai Mall, Star Technology, and YY.
After Shui Linglong left the cave, she headed straight for the Qi residence. The layout in the secret cave was not designed specifically for Xue Yue; it had been planned long before, and it was unexpected that it would be used on her.
Guan Muhua twitched her lips, but that matter was ultimately her fault; no matter what she said now, she was in the wrong.
The mountain cave was exceptionally cold at night. Even though Qi Sujin held the fluffy Shui Linglong in her arms, she still felt frozen, especially lying on the icy ground, causing her to curl her body up instinctively.
He walked over with his usual faint smile and even ruffled her hair, yet he ended up sending her away just as she had arrived.
Thinking of the World Lord who created the Ghost Servant race, she could not help but suspect that perhaps, in this world, there was another World Lord besides her.
Thus, they quite simply ignored Mr. Murong entirely, who had wanted to display his paternal affection. Aside from some useful clues brought by his words and actions, his moods and other things left no impression on the two of them.
Cang Hai Suifeng ignored the blade in his hand. He swung his long spear with both hands, channeling his superior cultivation to unleash a crimson aura. Suddenly, the trees around them swayed violently, and rocks flew as he directed a gale of black energy toward Xuan Que.
