It was certain that this matter would soon reach his director, and he could imagine his fate with his eyes closed. If he apologized, he would be admitting he had brought shame to the newspaper; if he refused, he would surely be forced to go to Hongji Enterprise to beg for mercy on his knees.

He looked handsome and possessed the stern authority of a sect leader, yet he was a man of unfathomable schemes. He remained silent, his fingers tapping gently against the armrest of the silver throne he sat upon, as if deep in thought or waiting for something.

"It's useless, but you don't understand," Xu Hengle narrowed her eyes slightly. Some things simply cannot be expressed in words.

However, unlike the shops outside where the larger the sign and the louder the name, the better, these establishments generally lacked any signage above them.

Every word Chen Zixi spoke now was meant to strike cruelly at Zhao Chenxi’s heart. She understood exactly what Zhao Chenxi cared about most, and only in this way could she inflict total devastation.

With his current cultivation level, combined with his trump cards—the Primal Divine Light and the Ancient Seal—he truly had nothing to fear unless the Temple of War dispatched an Immortal Emperor or even an Immortal Venerable.

Jiang He suddenly lifted his head to look at him! What did he know? What did he want to say? Was it about the incident at the entrance of "Charm Bar"?

Upon darting out of the building, he saw several cyan jade talismans floating motionless within the water screen directly facing the structure.

Yet, because they were newcomers and unfamiliar with the area, they feared causing a misunderstanding, so they suppressed their temper and asked, "Whose child are you? Why are you speaking such nonsense?"

Seeing these two cultivators enter, the two shop assistants exchanged a glance and immediately stepped forward. One of them whispered a few words to the visitors before leading them directly into a quiet room at the back of the shop.

After greeting Yu Youwei, Jiang Yi rose and headed to the kitchen, while Yu Youwei seized the moment to observe the black cat in her arms.

He felt that since he had already come to the hospital, he should naturally visit his mother’s good friend. Besides, Aunt Xiao Jing was the advertising manager of the Gu Corporation, so in any case, he ought to pay his respects.

Wu Yu gripped his hands tightly, her face flushed red from the pressure, yet in that very moment, a smile graced her lips.

Lord He pondered this, clenching his jaw. The fire had started very close to the stairs, likely in the room directly facing them.

The magistrate sneered at the sight of Merchant Liu’s demeanor and immediately summoned his subordinates to drag him away.

Jiang Yi, returning with two glasses of water, happened to see the black cat darting out. He looked so startled that he lost his grip, and much of the water spilled.

At the Xia residence, Xia Guomu was gripped by a fit of rage after reviewing the month’s sales figures and hurled the ledger at Xia Ziyu.

He lifted one of the soldier’s legs, bending it in mid-air, and tapped gently with his fist just below the knee, causing the leg to kick upward.

"Who says I was eavesdropping? I walked in openly, and since none of you turned around and were so engrossed in your conversation, I had no choice but to overhear a few words as I passed by." Qin Ming looked righteous, insisting he hadn't been eavesdropping.

She had been moved into Chengen Palace without making a single request. Outsiders saw it as a supreme honor, but to Zheng Xi, it was nothing more than a birdcage. Since the day she entered, she had never been able to leave.

Since Lin Mengyue had followed him to the hotel, she must have made up her mind. Yet, he knew this was a decision made in the heat of the moment, so he refrained from any improper actions, simply savoring the warmth of their embrace.

It seemed that the task he had asked Yin Feng to handle was either not given his full effort, or Xiao Ziqian had hidden something from her, preventing Yin Feng from succeeding.

The two used a very peculiar language; although they could not understand the words, they could grasp the intended meaning. It was truly incredible.

Moreover, there was every variety imaginable. Things unavailable in the island nation or elsewhere could be found in the Second World, which had even bred dozens of new species.

As for Jiang Sheng, although Jian Shuo had benefited from him, he did not consider him an ally. With Jiang Sheng’s attitude unclear, Jian Shuo was uneasy about keeping him in the capital’s military, so he, too, went to pay respects to the Ling Emperor.

"Yet what?" Although Gu Yue did not finish, Li Yang understood. But how was he to answer that question?

The Sun Pirates, having prepared well, each unleashed their abilities to minimize their losses, then immediately launched an attack on the bewildered Beasts Pirates.

Like someone stubborn, a lingering regret, an怨spirit that refused to die... relying on its final breath to set its entire being ablaze.

Of course, this was partly due to Han Qingqing’s grandfather; after all, as a Great Elder, having that connection to Han Qingqing provided some benefits.

Her voice softened, her eyes fixed on Qi Qianqian’s. She took a step forward and reached out toward her.

The bandage on her left arm, soaked by the rain, bore small, pink specks, looking just like the petals of a peach blossom.
