Chapter 43: Finalizing the Wedding Date

"Damn it, these people know nothing of the truth and yet they launch into such indiscriminate slander and abuse. This is simply too much! What on earth are we to do? I wonder which heartless scoundrel is backstabbing Fifth Lass behind her back!"

Hearing the gossip about Zhaojiao outside, Madam Qiu rushed over to find her in a panic.

Conubine Meng was equally anxious and burning with impatience, "What should we do? Will Prince Su misunderstand Jiao Jiao upon hearing this? Who could be so vicious!"

Zhaojiao's head buzzed as she massaged her temples and sighed.

Perhaps feeling the numbing sensation of the thunder element, Madam Tie frowned and regained consciousness, her eyes still lingering with lingering fear, her face deathly pale.

"Jin Buneng, you really have some nerve. Aren't you afraid that the Golden Scale Guards will be completely wiped out?" Cao Wu sneered.

Jiang Qian did not insist. Besides, on her path to future fame, she would still need to rely heavily on Zhao Yun's help.

"Then why not make it bigger?" Bian Wei smiled and looked at Qiang Taiqi.

Ye Xuan's expression was indifferent as he took a step forward, yet it frightened the surrounding martial practitioners into a sudden collective retreat.

The person she loved despised her. She was clearly a kind-hearted and ambitious person, yet she was blackened by the entire internet to such an extent that even her friends betrayed her.

Ren Feiyang grabbed the right hand that was desperately pulling his arm and kissed it. Instinctively, He Xingyue tried to yank her hand back, but failed to retrieve it.

Lan Xinying's fan count was growing rapidly, but because of Lan Xinying, the number of her anti-fans had also reached an unprecedented level.

Such a pill array was something they had never seen or heard of before, which silently forced them to re-evaluate Tang Letian's worth. They began to increasingly believe that Tang Letian was the reincarnation of an infant master.

With every single strike of the hammer, this piece of refined silver metal deformed. Although the refined silver metal lacked intelligence, it was nonetheless a lifeform.

However, Chen Xuan did not show panic. With a single foot stomped onto the ground, strands of spiritual veins on his body flickered with spiritual light.

After Yang Changfa left, Xiao Yue had nothing particular to do. Having not rested well the previous night, she went to lie down on the heated brick bed.

Yang Changfu said nothing. He secretly exchanged a glance with Old Master Yang, but Old Master Yang was someone who cared deeply about his pride. The matter of extorting money from his son out of poverty was something he would never discuss with outsiders under any circumstances. Seeing Yang Changfu's glance, he remained silent and merely pressed his lips together.

After the meeting ended, Bureau Chief Dai immediately called Zhang Chuhan, saying he had an urgent matter to discuss with her. As Zhang Chuhan happened to be at the department as well, she told him to come over, saying she would wait for him.

The advantage of this method is that the medicine cauldron can thoroughly enter the alchemy state, reducing the danger of the cauldron exploding while also having a nurturing effect on the cauldron itself.

Not knowing what else to say, Tang Jian sighed and chose to remain silent. Then Nangong Yin departed.

Old Master Yang heard Yang Changfa's voice from inside the room, and his heart immediately felt a great deal lighter. Now that he was old, he still hoped to see his sons support one another.

"Word for word? It seems Master Huaye left nothing behind!" Zi Zu Duoming said in disappointment.

In truth, Madam Lin did not care to recall that when they initially left, they had carried away almost everything in the house that belonged to them. Everything in the house now belonged to the eldest branch's household, and since they rarely stayed home for long periods during the year, virtually all the items currently in the house belonged to the eldest branch.

He turned and slowly walked away. At such a critical juncture, he had no intention of wading into any muddy waters. Protecting Melinda and waiting for the arrival of King Zes was the top priority; who would have the luxury to grieve even for a moment over the destiny of others?

Xia Jinyu glanced at Bai Qiusheng, lacking any mood to care. She grabbed her overcoat and planned to go out for a stroll, feeling utterly suffocated.

Who hasn't gossiped about others behind their backs, and who hasn't been the subject of gossip themselves? Back in the day, when those major celebrities were exposed for infidelity, domestic violence, or even sexual assault, which of those incidents didn't spark nationwide discussions? And how did it turn out later? Weren't they all living just fine?

Had it not been for the vast expanse of cratered terrain and charred, broken wood still remaining at the edges of the Huo Lian Forest, no one would ever have imagined that this place had once been transformed into a dead zone.
