Many people had come, and Xiao Jingchen was worried that Gu Nian might grow tired. He quietly asked whether she wanted to sit down and rest for a while, but Gu Nian shook her head firmly. This was such a solemn occasion that everyone was standing. As the Xiao family’s daughter-in-law, how could she make an exception?
Feng Yiheng, the man at the center of it all, was far less nervous than Chi Wan. When Feng Hao’s fist came swinging toward him, he remained composed and simply slipped backward. The fist skimmed past his face. Standing beside him, Chi Wan saw clearly that it had passed so close that it had nearly grazed his cheek, yet he had escaped without a scratch.
It would probably be another two days before Huang Shulang returned. For those two days, Xiaoyaozi planned to storm the White Shark Hunter Corps’ headquarters first, then wait for Huang Shulang and eliminate him. Once that was done, the matter in Daqingshan Town would finally come to an end.
“What kind of snake is this?” Ximen Jinlian asked deliberately, pointing at the one atop the glass cabinet, which bore no label. She could guarantee that even if the shopkeeper specialized in selling pet snakes, he would never know where this snake had come from.
“Big Brother, you can rest assured. I’ve arranged everything properly, and there won’t be any problems.” After saying this, Hu Chunlin allowed a faint, sinister smile to creep across his lips.
But this Emerald Princess had asked the prices of so many rough jade stones. Surely she did not intend to have him cut every one of them?
After Ninth Brother finished speaking, our brows all furrowed. The Scalpel then said to him, frowning, “Ouyang Zilong can still answer the phone, so there shouldn’t be anything seriously wrong, right?”
“Commander, you mustn’t say that. If it hadn’t been for your recognition and favor all those years ago, I, Zhang Feng, would have had no idea where I might have died far from home. Following you all these years has never felt hard to me!” the middle-aged man said excitedly. He was the kind of person who always repaid kindness; once he had chosen to follow his commander, he would do so for the rest of his life.
After I finished speaking, Xu Banxian nodded and gathered up all the dolls.
Perhaps she would never see him again in this lifetime. But that did not matter. As long as she knew that he was alive and living well, what difference did it make whether they met again?
“What? Seeing that things are going badly, you want to climb onto another powerful patron’s coattails?” Xing Hen glanced at Chen Zhibin before fixing his gaze on An Miaomiao’s enchanting face.
Da Xiuqing sat in the corner of the room, not daring to make a sound. She did not even dare ask Ma Youmei whether she was in pain or wanted something to eat.

“Miss Caidie is quite well…” Though Qingqing felt a slight ache in her heart, she held nothing against Caidie herself.
I read through every Thailand travel guide I could find, and I also arranged a way to take leave from work.
Song Mo’er sat inside the suite, utterly despondent. She wrapped her coat tightly around herself; it was the only thing that could give her any warmth.
Ding Yi had suddenly fallen into deep contemplation, which aroused Yuan Quan’s curiosity. Without dwelling on how awkwardly Ding Yi had forced him into a corner, he asked directly.
A private high school like this was not somewhere one could enter simply by having money. The applicant’s parents also needed status and influence. In addition to excellent character, students applying for admission had to rank near the top academically and possess a talent worthy of display.
The four members of the Lu and Ding families fell silent as one. By contrast, the three members of Ding Baiying’s master-and-disciple party all glared furiously at Qin Yan.
Earlier, he had handed the arena over to Zhang Sanfeng and told him to renovate it properly. By now, it should have been nearly finished.
Some uninvited fellow was cooking in the kitchen. He glanced at the man’s straight back and curled his lip.
Today was the Moon Eve Festival. Lanterns and decorations adorned every corner of the princely residence, filling it with lively festivity. It was said that the Dowager Consort and the Princess Consort, who had been worshiping Buddha in Shangdu, would also return to the residence today for a family reunion. As a result, Lin, the director of the Household Administration Office, was on high alert and had begun ordering the servants to clean and tidy everything from early that morning.
Numerous cultivators stood there. Some were Dharma Thrones, while others were Eternal Deities. Though they kept their auras and imposing power tightly restrained, the main hall was still enveloped in an immense pressure. Had an Immortal been present, he would probably have collapsed on the spot, unable to withstand it.
Weilai, barefoot, with a sapphire-blue body, sapphire-blue eyes, blue hair, and blue brows, suddenly stiffened. In disbelief, he lifted his gaze, intending to look toward Fang Cheng.
On the main street, he could not seal my acupoints in full view of everyone, and I could not lose my temper either. Thus, we challenged each other in silence all the way to the Jing Prince’s Residence. After resting in the front hall for a while, Yimu arranged for us to stay in Shuiyue Hall.

Seeing Hui Nuan teasing him into a smile, Ling Xi’s mood was no longer as low as before, and he smiled along with her.
When Mo Wanxin saw Jian Lixing sitting beside her, the corners of her lips once again lifted into a delighted, lingering smile.
There was one thing Peng Hai had not said: he had already tried every method Liu Mu had used.
“Shut up!” Liang Muqiu snarled at Ouyang Mie. She did not want to hear about those matters. They were the nightmare of her life, and she never wanted anyone to mention them again.
Regardless of who they were, everyone had to cultivate along a straight-line trajectory. And following a straight line was destined to take the shortest possible amount of time.
There were all kinds of pills, along with several weapons that were particularly handy. There was even a great deal of Spirit Spring Water.
“Up in the tree. See that red thing swaying there? That’s the sack they were carrying earlier,” Ghost Xiuluo explained, turning to me.
It was only after he had watched the first light of dawn appear from Wangyue Tower, and truly could not remain there any longer, that he finally left the imperial palace empty-handed.
A haggard man dragged his exhausted body into a tavern called Apricot Blossom House.
“Wu Xing, what you’re doing is wrong. If you wanted the sword embryo, you could have challenged Ye Tian and obtained it through your own strength. But why did you have to hurt Tang Ke?” Mu Chen’s eyes were icy as he watched Wu Xing’s despicable conduct, unable to bear it any longer.
