Volume 1, Chapter 32: So, do you know who drugged it?

Xu Zhiyi reached out and stroked Little Fish’s head, her voice tinged with a weary rasp.

“If your hands were injured, wouldn’t I starve to death? Besides, there are some things that must be done personally to be truly satisfying.”

Xu Zhiyi was truly exhausted, and she gave a lazy yawn.

“I’m going to rest for a while. Once you’ve finished your work, you should take a break too. In any case, no one dares to come and stir up trouble at Wutong Courtyard for the time being.”

“It’s not that he’s really that incredible; it’s just that Director Chu truly has that kind of capability.” Luo Guochao’s words convinced the majority of the people.

Cao Ruoxi looked at Lan Zihao in shock, as if Elder Brother Lan knew something they didn't. Could this be true?

“I know, I won’t get pregnant. I’m still holding onto that final line of defense.” Zeng Jihong had long wanted to cross that line, but Gu Dongchen disagreed—he was just too stubborn. However, she had found a few remaining condoms in the space, so maybe she could try it this time.

Those people moved like ghosts, navigating the night with uncanny ease as if they possessed the perfect advantage of timing, terrain, and unity. Their formations were ever-changing, and as Su Hao and Han Ling fought side by side, neither side could gain the upper hand for a time.

Only a Heavenly Venerate, with their formidable power, could travel through the God-Burial Ridge at will. But even a Heavenly Venerate would die in vain if they entered the Valley of Unjust Deaths at the heart of the ridge, never to emerge again.

“Yes.” The Chief Attendant did not press the matter. Under these circumstances, he understood that Su Jingnian had no appetite.

“Grandmother said she didn’t make an appointment with you at all today. Was this intentional?” Yu Chuchu ignored Shen Muxian’s attempts at evasion and focused on the core of the matter.

The cold, clear voice was like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing the frantic fear burning in Chu Yun’s heart. Her mind cleared instantly; she sat bolt upright as if electrocuted, eyes fixed ahead, mind centered. She swore on her livelihood for the rest of her life that she hadn’t meant to hug him.

At that moment, Su Hao was simultaneously protecting Ouyang Lingyan and battling the other zombies. His Chaos Profound Yellow Spear technique was incredibly powerful; before the zombies could even react, Su Hao swept the spear horizontally, sending them all crashing to the ground.

When she opened the paternity test report, she froze, then frowned. She replayed the final conclusion in her mind over and over: the tested adult and child did not share a biological parent-child relationship.

Yet, as for manipulating Lancelot—especially trapping him in the Immortal Realm to keep him from returning to Jian Qilai—Lancelot would not fear even such a powerful opponent.

Su Banzhia felt the leanness of He Zhan’s waist, and her heart ached as if pricked by a needle. He had grown so thin.

Seeing the werewolf legion gathering one after another, Ya’er let out a howl toward the sky. Clenching his fists, he stopped running and walked slowly toward the three elders.

Lu Fengnian was so angry he wanted to beat Su Banzhia to a pulp, but he couldn't simply knock her unconscious.

“Yueyue, we always do things ourselves when we’re out.” Of course, when going on missions with the team, they were the ones doing the work. Zhai Feibai didn’t actually like cooking, but it was different for Chu Yue; as long as he thought about the food being for Yueyue, he found joy in the task.

“Rest assured, I am a divine beast; I only need a moment to regulate my breath! This is a critical period, and we cannot afford to be lax, lest someone exploit a loophole and ruin all our plans!” Lu Qi said earnestly.

Zhong Zhong’s heart skipped a beat. She had inexplicably guessed what Zhong Qing wanted to tell her, but she couldn't feel happy about it. Now that Pang Yueban was in trouble, it was a time when help was needed most; abandoning her at this moment didn’t feel right.

Su Banzhia woke up early, washed up, ate a simple breakfast, and then carried her bamboo basket up the mountain.
