Volume 1, Chapter 48: The Secret of the Xu Family

Madam Cheng felt a buzzing in her head and rushed in like a gust of wind, grabbing Madame Xu by the collar. "You knew about the bronze square vessel all along?"
Madame Xu shrieked, "I didn't know! I didn't know there was corpse miasma inside! I didn't know the corpse miasma would kill people! I didn't know anything!"
Seeing this, Fu Lan hurriedly pulled Madam Cheng away.
"Had I known you'd be this happy, I should have grabbed a few more auspicious items," Lin Yichuan coaxed his father.
Ding Ling had only acted on a whim; she hadn't expected that Lin Yichuan, whom she had picked up casually, would leave a deeper impression on her than Mu Lan had.
Tang Hongye only then realized that his ankles were aching somewhat, but he still strode over to Du Juan's side, removed the gun from her hands, and pulled her into his embrace.
Everyone knew the risk of this matter was immense, and precisely because of that, he was even less willing to let Du Juan step forward to take the lead.
"There's one way—get them pregnant, biologically speaking..." Zheng Kai spat out a mouthful of wild grass in agony, watching as Wang Xiang had already covered his ears and retreated into the tent.
Such shameless remarks made Cheng Yunqing burn with rage. However, what chilled him to the bone even more was that among the onlookers, quite a few were actually nodding repeatedly in agreement with Madam Zhuang's words. His heart felt as though it had plummeted into a freezing abyss.
Gao Qian was somewhat speechless. It turned out this Zhang Hua was either being swindled out of her money by witchcraft or by this so-called spiritual cultivation scam.
Yet, although he managed to preserve the Radiant Sun Glory, he ultimately still failed to bring every single member of the Radiant Sun clan back to their homeland as he had wished.
"Useless trash, trash, all of you are useless trash!" At the Zhou residence, Zhou Huai'an was roaring with fury as he reprimased the law enforcement hall members before him. Seeing them all looking utterly disheveled, with some even emitting a foul stench, Zhou Huai'an felt his anger flare up uncontrollably.
"Ahem, ahem." Wei Yan gave two dry coughs, stroking his two swollen lips that resembled sausages, feeling like crying without tears.
The sunlight was glorious on this day. Xiao Wei sat in the courtyard, letting the warm winter sun wash over him, which felt exceptionally comfortable. Kikai stood to one side watching his master with a smile on his face. Kikai felt that as long as he was with his master, he would inexplicably attain peace and tranquility within his heart.
I calmed my mind and thought carefully, suddenly enlightened. Chu Jun never did things by conventional rules. Weren't the mechanisms of the Ascension Platform also set up very far away? Perhaps this mechanism wasn't in the room at all. Just as I was about to call out to Qin Tian to go outside, I turned my head and saw Qin Tian staring blankly at a table.
Later, Eunice finally sent word to Yumina, saying that she was on the Demon Star and was heavily injured.
"You don't look as good-looking when you're serious as you did just now." Instead of saying something like "it doesn't matter," I gave a non-sequitur banter.
However, Qian Teduo's older brothers had decent aptitude for cultivation. Moreover, with such a wealthy father, their cultivation resources were bound to be plentiful. Thus, among all the brothers, he was the only one who didn't need to concentrate on cultivation and instead went to study commerce.
Seeing that everyone had rested enough, I called out for us to hit the road. We had finally arrived. Looking at the familiar courtyard before me, I felt an extraordinary sense of warmth. "I'm back." I pushed open the big gate and walked straight in. There was no one in the courtyard, and no one in the house either; they were all out. Where could they have gone?
"Alright, since you called me darling and I moonlighted as your boyfriend, I'll help you out," Chen Fei said with a smile.
Thanks to this blow, the Pantheon of War managed to catch their breath. They sprang up rapidly and, upon spotting my location, came over to my side.
Ouyang Qingfeng knocked on the door and then pushed it open. Everyone was stunned, because meetings attended by the chairman were invariably high-level executive meetings, and ordinary folk like them had never been qualified to attend.
Gege knew that Ouyang Siyu merely wanted a little more time to spend with Qianying, which was why he had brought her to his side.
