26 Please Come to My House for Dinner

There seemed to be no situation that matched the present “kiss,” which was why she said she did not know whether it had succeeded or failed, or whether it was good or bad.
Since someone had delivered it straight to her door—and the Duke of Cheng’s household certainly did not deal in cheap, inferior goods—why should she refuse to accept it?
An Honghan gave a cold snort. Anyone who dared to take what belonged to him—Wu Jianfeng must have considered the consequences long ago. The moment he abducted Xi Xizhi, he had surely begun preparing to flee the imperial palace.
As he spoke, a thin vortex appeared where the sound elevator had pierced the sea of clouds. Sure enough, something slowly began to emerge from within.
This time, Mu Lingluo had escaped unharmed only because those guards had risked their lives to protect her. Otherwise, she would probably have become a corpse today.
“All right.” Fang Mei knew this as well. She hurriedly helped him into the room, took out the medicine, and then followed Mu Lingluo’s instructions to boil it.
Lying comfortably on the sofa, she was just about to take out her phone and read the news when a text message arrived.
An Honghan raised his foot and stepped inside. The cave shimmered with wisps of eerie green light, lending it a sinister and terrifying air. Yet even such an atmosphere was not enough to make the three of them afraid.
Fu Zifei gave a cold laugh as she walked away. She did not regret what she had done; she merely hated that those who carried it out were all spineless cowards, too afraid to die.
The instant Jun Wuxie spoke, Jun Xian had already touched the soul jade. A chill spread from his hand, and Jun Xian frowned slightly. He… had not experienced anything unusual at all.
Instead, he was a young man of restrained bearing, his expression relaxed and confident. Brilliant light gleamed in his eyes—a display of formidable, unyielding strength, as well as ability and self-assurance.
He had originally intended to persuade Kim Taeyeon not to be so hard on herself. After all, was money not meant to be spent? But since Kim Taeyeon had put it that way, he kept silent.
Ivo hurriedly stamped both feet down. With the speed boost from the Wind of Clear Chant, he nimbly dodged aside. The arrow struck the snow and exploded, blasting open a huge crater as snow dust billowed everywhere.
Kim Taeyeon’s face instantly turned deathly pale in front of the computer. She had no idea why Byun Baekhyun had said such a thing. Xia Zhe was also astonished. Wasn’t Byun Baekhyun in love with Kim Taeyeon? Why would he suddenly say something like that?
The polar bear was already preparing to pounce, yet Ye Chen calmly continued chatting with the audience, as though he truly did not care about it in the slightest.

Sure enough, after hearing the noise, Xueting quickly hid herself. Only when Qin Tian appeared did she quietly follow after him.
Aside from the skinny old thug whom Shi Xuan had knocked over with a kick when he first opened the door, all the other old thugs had gone mad, as though vengeful ghosts had come to claim their lives.
At that moment, Zhou Chen looked like an unaffiliated rogue cultivator. His clothes bore no sect insignia, and his appearance was rather frightening. The gunshot scar across his cheek resembled the wake left by a speeding motorboat, cutting grotesquely across his face.
Li Yan stared wide-eyed at Yan Qixiang and pressed his lips together. For a moment, he did not even know what to say.
Lin Huan had taken a little interest in the commotion and run out to see what was happening, hoping to shake off his awkward mood. But the moment he reached the doorway, two girls collided with him and knocked him down together.
“…”
Lin Huan silently cursed You Ma in his heart, wondering why that fellow had suddenly become so fond of adding dramatic scenes to his own life.
Just then, a hearty laugh rang out. Harry and Peach Rabbit both turned toward the sound, and when they saw who had arrived, they were stunned.
Earlier, Pop had been wondering where the shadow had gone after they encountered it in the mine. For a while, he thought it had disappeared. In reality, however, the shadow had always remained beside Durey, inseparable from him in the form of his own shadow.
Xia Mo was meddling in other people’s business again. She never seemed to have any part in good deeds, yet she was always involved whenever mischief was afoot.
“Your Highness Jett, are you all right? Are you hurt anywhere?” A servant immediately helped Jett to his feet and asked anxiously about his condition.
At present, Sakura Ruoxue was mainly training her Charmeleon. After all, Gardevoir and Gengar had more or less already graduated.
What did this mean? Qianchen did not know. He only knew that he had thought the journey would continue, but unexpectedly, he landed on another stretch of level ground.
A quarter of an hour later, the scooter stopped beside a dilapidated old street dimly lit by scattered lamps.
“I know. Take a look through the collateral at your auction house and see whether there’s anything good. The price only needs to be around eight million dollars—nothing too expensive,” Li Wei continued.
The young man stood inside the old European-style teaching building. His shoulders were thin yet straight, his excessively long lashes lowered with a cool air, and his voice was clear and calm.

In the blink of an eye, the group found themselves surrounded by countless celestial rams. Every one of them looked furious, and even their bleats carried surging waves of force.
If he wanted to solve the problem once and for all, he had to make Fang De understand that he and Duoduo were people he could never afford to provoke.
All along, he had indeed based his livelihood on animal husbandry and made his profits through silk-horse trading… The very core of his business had been exposed in a single sentence.
Before long, proclamation after proclamation, still carrying the scent of fresh ink, was pasted up. Along the road, the common people stopped whatever they were doing and gathered around.
He departed with relief, carrying with him the glory of having a disciple named Zhan Yitian, who possessed all five elements and could cultivate immortality. With that, he could rest in peace.
A faint fluorescent-green radiance began to glow. Countless dandelions drifted through the air, and wherever they passed, the towering waves were completely smoothed away.
He merely lifted his dark, cool, and finely arched lashes to glance at her. A helpless crease appeared between his brows, yet he indulged all of her behavior at that moment.
The scene reminded him of what had happened in the past: Ye Dingzhi, leader of the Demon Sect, had relied on the strength of a ghost immortal to fight his way straight to Emperor Mingde.
Shi Ji had never seen a competition victory celebrated for an entire day and night. Everyone was as delighted as though they had won the grand prize.
Thus, the two of them sat atop the extraterrestrial machine and chatted, while calling Crystal over to dismantle the machine. Yuyan and Yue Sha continued waiting on standby in the distance.
“Hmph! I’d like to see who it is. Their information is remarkably quick—sharper than a dog’s nose.” Grandfather slammed his chopsticks down heavily.
As for Wang Ben, he was one of the more battle-hardened generals of the Nether Kingdom. This did not mean that he was particularly skilled in military strategy. Rather, Wang Ben was a fierce warrior who would never stop attacking until every enemy had been slaughtered.
She had everyone spray exorcism mist over their weapons, first testing from a distance to see whether it could harm the puppet.
