Chapter 32: Scum of Society!

“So, you intend to sever all ties with me completely?” Tang Wange asked softly and calmly.

“That’s right!”

Her cousin, Xie Junjun, snatched up the bill and held it before Tang Wange. With a sharp rip, she tore it in half and said through clenched teeth, “Not only that—the wild man who was with you last time kicked my father and injured him, forcing him to make countless trips to the hospital and spend a fortune on medicine! You will bear every last expense.”

“But come to think of it, Cousin—”

With those words, the entire world was thrown into an uproar! People throughout the nation praised Duke Xu for his noble conduct, while the ministers in the capital flushed with shame. Whenever they went to court and saw the white-haired emperor, they could scarcely bear to raise their heads.

The Wolf King curled his lips into a cold smile. He paid no attention to the departing Heaven-Piercing Tiger King, instead turning toward the demon wolves of Wolf Valley. His gaze lingered briefly on Wolf Hongxiang and the others before finally settling on the Snow-Eagle King.

These people might not have been the ones who brought Tang Lulu into this, but Ye Bai had no intention of letting them off either.

Perhaps there truly was a wondrous phenomenon in this world known as being of one mind. Ding Yuhan, lying on her bed, did not know why, but a strange sensation suddenly compelled her to leap up and rush toward the window.

He watched Xia Long’s unrestrained manner with a smile and spoke calmly, as though he were not speaking to someone he was currently torturing at all.

As footsteps entered the space behind the screen, an unparalleled beauty of sixteen or seventeen, clad in a swaying jade-green dress, appeared before the students.

A-Fa trudged down the stairs in a disheveled state. He first went to the latrine, then made his way over to his mother.

Whether joyful or sorrowful, not a single clan would choose to stay away after receiving the invitation. At a time like this, no one could afford to disregard Toyotomi Shunyi’s prestige. No one wanted to become the chicken killed to frighten the monkeys.

Chen Lin nodded in agreement. “Mr. Fang is right. Li Yong is the best candidate among us. We should also assign two captains as his deputies so they can learn from his experience.” With that, he cupped his hands toward Liren.

“Zhiyong, stop this. Your body belongs to you. Once you ruin it, no one can take your place.” Han Zhijun tried to persuade Tian Zhiyong, who lay bedridden.

Dimei did not know what the staff was for, but when she saw the reluctance in High Priest Purple Yam’s eyes, she understood that it must be extremely precious.

Diana could hardly be bothered with words. Without further ado, she attacked. Her body transformed into a streak of divine light and closed in on Monk Mingzang.

Although Shen Zhangtian was a forthright man, he was not the sort to act on every thought as Sha Dutian did.

Although the fellow seemed somewhat foolish, he was different from before, and somehow gave everyone an ominous feeling.

The captain could not even be bothered to act personally. He simply bent his leg and kicked the frail man in the thigh, sending him stumbling sideways. Even so, a trace of wariness rose in his heart. Someone appearing here under the banner of a “Blue City adventurer”—could he be a raider?

“Xuanyuan gave me the body of a Saint-tier magical beast to devour and cultivate with. Can you offer me anything comparable?” Tian Mo raised the corner of his mouth, his tone openly provocative.

“Uh…” Xuanyuan was humiliated once again and simply fell silent. He had no desire whatsoever to decipher Zimeng’s mischievous temperament.

As usual, Hang Ping launched into a lecture, saying that marriage was one of life’s greatest events and should be approached with caution, that they ought to carefully choose an auspicious day before proceeding, and so on. No one paid her any mind.

Next, Gexi Yan began bonding the second horn. The fierce wind howled, and sparks and volcanic grit flew straight into her limpid eyes. She forced them open and finally attached the second horn.

The soldiers maintained their composure and covered one another while launching a counterattack against the enemy. In this way, they could minimize the force of the enemy assault, reduce their own casualties, and stabilize the battlefield.

There was nothing he could do. He simply did not have the courage to provoke those two grim-faced demons beside Shengshi. Either of them could chop him to pieces with a single stroke.
