Chapter 54: Infiltrating the Lin Residence

Madam You mustered a rare burst of courage and chimed in, "Indeed. If the family hadn't split up, we could have shared in the third branch's good fortune today."

Though she did not dare to speak her mind outside, Madam He had no such restraints at home and shrieked in discontent, "You're blaming me again? When we were bullying the third branch and reaping the benefits, why didn't any of you try to stop me? And much of the money I got from Mu Ningning was spent on you all anyway."

The people present fell into an awkward silence.

It was indeed the truth.

Especially You...

"I'm not asking you; I'm asking Yuge. Yuge, tell me if it tastes good. If it doesn't, I won't eat it." Fang Qin looked at Yuge, the smile at the corner of her mouth widening bit by bit.

Bai Jiao still maintained a placid expression. The spiritual energy surging around Li stirred up a breeze, and though the wind fluttered Bai Jiao's dark cyan robes, it could not shake his expression in the least. He merely grasped a moon-white sword in his hand.

All military deployments were now in place: the Frost Giants responsible for hurling gunpowder and kerosene upon the city walls, the Suoda light cavalry assembled at the city gates, and the Longqiang tribe led by Long Yun.

Once the pillars of light were extinguished, the forest plunged back into darkness. The moonlight was hazy, and all around fell into absolute silence.

"Huanhuan, please think it over carefully. I'll have a few days off soon and come back to see you." After leaving, Xia Bingying would be getting a new manager, who certainly wouldn't be as good as the one she had worked with for over a dozen years.

The performance on the frontlines clearly left Jiang Feng deeply dissatisfied. With absolute technological and weapon superiority, how could they even lose? Anyone with hands could win this.

Master Wild Fox seemed somewhat intimidated by the Blue Fox, offering an awkward, sheepish smile before raising his wine goblet and draining it in one gulp.

Then they would just have to go find a horse dealer. If there were no pure white horses, a black one would do—as long as the coat color was similar.

Lu Ming was well aware that these underworld officials of the Immortal Path actually had no right to slaughter living mortals of the Martial Path. They were merely there to ferry newly departed souls, much like how the late Qi Mengzhu had encountered two underworld officers coming to claim her soul.

At this moment, Xu Yingnian seemed utterly numb, feeling not the slightest trace of anomaly regarding the fact that he had slaughtered an entire academy, as if he had simply performed a most mundane chore.

Qin Ming instantly came to his senses. No wonder his departure through the Falcon spaceship's phase tunnel had been so smooth; it turned out to be Grandmaster Creation's strategy of playing hard to get.

That large vase stood a full person's height, featuring a wide mouth, slender neck, and a bulbous belly, adorned with a painted scene of landscapes and figures.

Sitting on the floor, Lou Kaili watched Ouguan Sheng's retreating back, and only then did it abruptly dawn on her that even in a drunken haze, Ouguan Sheng would never lay a single finger on her.

"Let Qiqi guard it; this place will eventually be hers. Learning to manage things early on is quite a good idea," Emperor Shixian stated, revealing his intentions.

Especially that swaying, twisting waist, which easily called to mind the mesmerizing models on a fashion runway. Every step seemed to tread right upon a person's heart, leaving one tingling all over and endlessly itching with desire.

No longer was anyone listening to Xuanyue Qin's defense. Even with a myriad of excuses, the fact that she had shamelessly crawled into Beiming Haokong's bed was true, and her desire to marry into nobility and become the crown princess was equally true.

Moreover, since he doubted her, she would simply deliver herself to his doorstep for him to investigate. In any case, she harbored no ulterior motives regarding Yuzhou Mountain and had nothing to fear from his scrutiny, provided her true identity remained unexposed.

Liang Song, however, had no way of knowing that special privileges were not something Tai Zhenfeng actively sought out. Yet the commotion outside the locker room was simply too great; leaving aside the fact that this was merely an interscholastic league's internal team practice, even if it were the final training session before the Super Martial League Grand Finals, any delay would simply have to be accepted.

Whether it was due to his previous rampage in which he took away the Seven-Colored Exquisite Flower, no traces of human life remained within the Yellow Springs Realm, save for the endless expanse of skeletal remains covering the ground.

With these words, Dongfang Ming successfully pulled the others back to reality. If any of their respective factions were to face Mu Ling and his companion alone, annihilation would likely be their only fate. As long as Mu Ling was eliminated, their chances of securing the young Vajra beast would increase exponentially. Even the Dark Dragon, which had remained silent all this while, flashed a sharp glint in its eyes.
