Chapter Twenty-Five: The Time-Traveling Woman

Though it was said there were two letters to write, in truth, only one needed to be penned. After all, Wang Lin was on the estate, and whatever Wang Heng wished to say could be spoken face-to-face. The real letter was meant for her birth mother, Lady Jiang.

Yet there was no rush; outsiders like Wang Mian were still present.

“Fat girl, don’t worry, I’ll deliver your letter for you!”

It was just the military camp at Yizhou, where her father often visited. Even Lou Dalang dared to ride there alone.

The boss brought over the lubricant and dripped some onto the gears and bearings, making the pedaling smoother and easier.

But it was eerily quiet below, which only made Lily feel more uneasy. For the first time, she truly experienced how terrifying complete silence could be.

Just two balls, yet Mo Xi felt a heavy pressure—Willis Reed was truly formidable. Still, Mo Xi couldn’t help but recall what Auerbach had said to him earlier that day.

In fact, because the master lacked trustworthy attendants, the final infiltration work was all handled by that vampire whose name never stuck in memory. He claimed it was part of the deal, though it was hard to comprehend, yet the ensuing events were clear enough.

Rue was indeed open-hearted, actually believing Qin Mo’s words, even chatting with him as if they were brothers.

Through Tsunade’s brief explanation, Ichiro Hyuga gained a deeper understanding of spirit and spiritual energy.

Though these disciples could not inherit their family’s business or status, if they succeeded in cultivation, they could acquire great power and long life, enabling them to protect their family for many years.

Fan Lin did not want Cedric to die just like that, but… he had to find a reasonable way to intervene.

He possessed extraordinary talent; not yet sixty, he had already achieved the rank of Senior Sword Sovereign and Senior Illusion Sovereign. His physical prowess reached its peak, and he was even expected to receive the Ascension Order, allowing him to ascend to the Nine Heavens and become a true supreme power.

“Don’t worry, most are hibernating. Those that aren’t have hidden themselves in caves—they sometimes observe the stars even better than humans.” Luo Zhan patted her head and went inside to wash his hands.

“Now, do you still think my brother acted wrongly?” Sister Qian Dong glanced at the group, each showing a hint of resignation before shaking their heads and letting it go. In the end, she lifted her chin, gazing at the iron-faced Fei Lei, her lips curling into a smile.

But after hearing the evolutionary system’s scan and analysis, he could not help but draw in a sharp breath.

She knew better than anyone the face of capital, so she worried that, in the end, Nai Qinghe would be targeted by both Country M and the general.

The ox cart moved steadily into an alleyway; beyond it was another street. Yu Zi vaguely remembered there were shops for rent at this hour.

All of Jun Jile’s years of painstaking cultivation ended up benefiting him, which was precisely why Fang Ling chose him for the task.

Before leaving, she cast a disapproving glance at Lu Feng. With things already as they were, why still avoid suspicion? If he had acted sooner, Chu Chu wouldn’t have had to suffer so much.

Suddenly, the two recognized the identity of the uninvited guest and immediately braced themselves, signaling their subordinates.

Xiao Xuejin closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She was caught between a rock and a hard place; all she could do now was take a gamble.

Now was not the time to dwell on these issues. Lin Han forced down his unease, turned sharply, and charged at Wu Yan.

“Speak. Let’s see if you can offer terms that truly satisfy me, and what you want me to do for you,” Fang Yang said calmly.

The setting sun cast slanting rays, and the flaming evening clouds set the waters of the Yi Luo River aglow, reflecting shimmering waves. Distant mountains were draped in a cloak of sunset, half real, half illusory. Along the banks, returning fishing boats busied themselves with mending nets, adding a warm breath of everyday life to the vivid scene.
