Volume 1, Chapter 30: A Love Enduring, My Cao Loves Me

"Alright, I'm heading into the gourd now. Brother Quan, if anything comes up, just have Yue'er call me inside," Wang Gongnan said.

"Fine, but be careful yourself. Don't let the Heavenly Court discover you, or there will be trouble," Xu Sun Dongliang replied.

"I implore you all to consider the big picture. I, Scorpio, am truly grateful to you all!" Scorpio turned and bowed, kneeling before the million-strong army.

When the ghost shadow entered Ling Li's body, he suddenly heard a sound like metal scraping against glass, which was incredibly piercing.

Tamamo-no-Mae felt something was off, because Zhou Hao's physique was not that massive; after all, Pei Qi was a man over two meters tall.

"Our boss is busy discussing matters inside. You go wait over there for a while," the leader with the shaved head said coolly.

The Eye of Lightning is my trump card. I have used it to annihilate countless powerful opponents in the past, so I do not want others to know the secret of my Eye of Lightning.

"Even if I say it has nothing to do with me, you won't believe it. So, there is no need to ask me. All I can tell you is that if you want to pin their disappearance on me, then produce the evidence."

Hearing Chen Yuru's words, I thought to myself: things here in East Lake have only just been smoothed out, and now, unexpectedly, the Ye family from the Magic City has emerged. The Magic City is the economic center of China; why would people from there come all the way to East Lake to stir up trouble? What exactly is their motive for causing chaos here?

Although it was somewhat radical, upon reflection, putting aside any success, as a child, if one cannot even be filial to one's parents, what are they if not a scourge?

Afterward, more and more people came asking for rice, and the scene began to turn chaotic, with arguments breaking out. If Yun Feng had been here, he surely could have maintained control, but unfortunately, he was absent. The remaining servants and guards lacked experience and did not know how to maintain order.

With their charade exposed, the middle-aged man could not save face. Wang Haoming had ruined a transaction worth thousands, making him hate him to the core. He stopped mentioning the purchase of the thangka and instead began to reproach Wang Haoming.

However, at this moment, Jie Yuan's fists were clenched tightly, and his eyes had become incredibly gloomy. It seemed that a life-or-death battle was inevitable today.

Treating him this way made Cheng Jin feel terrible, yet she did not know why. She clearly wanted to control herself and be kinder to him, but... whenever she saw that face of his, everything she had planned changed, shifting from warm to cruel, beyond her control.

Xu Yuan did not know what heart-piercing pain felt like, but if this stomach pain were real... every time it happened, she would be... and this time, it just happened to coincide with taking the train. This added a layer of awkwardness to the misery.

Chen Nuo was absolutely right. Li Junxiu was indeed leaning against the pillar only because he could no longer stand. Originally, Xu Yuan had not wanted him to come, but he insisted on following. She didn't know why, but ever since their relationship had been made clear, he had become increasingly nervous, fearing that if he closed his eyes, he might never see her again.

As for Zhaoxia, ever since she boarded the carriage, she had sat beside Lü Xiang'er with her eyelids lowered, remaining perfectly still and quiet. Lü Xiang'er assumed Zhaoxia was quiet because she was unwilling to share a carriage with a stranger like Huo Qingsong, so she didn't pay it much mind. Huo Qingsong, however, knew that Zhaoxia was acting this way because she had realized he was observing her.

How could Qiao Song refuse such an invitation? After making a phone call home, she boarded the train with the two of them.

Lin Luodan was not born into a wealthy family, so she naturally did not understand the thinking of these rich people. She also did not value fame and fortune as highly as they did. Her thoughts were simple: for now, do her job as a traffic police officer well, and in the future, get married, have children, and support her parents.

"Zhaoxia is still the best; Xiang'er only knows how to bully her brother," Lü Hong shook his head, making Zhaoxia laugh.

This was a Heaven-tier killing move of the Water God Kingdom, immensely powerful, using the strength of the ocean to extinguish any kind of flame. Angry waves surged and crashed toward Shen Yi and Huo Ling'er.

Li Jing sat at the table in deep thought. Mrs. Jing quietly emerged from the back room and placed a bowl of ginseng tea before him: "I just brewed this ginseng tea; it's steeped well. Drink more to nourish yourself." Her husband had been down south for over half a year and had lost so much weight; her heart truly ached for him.

He finally promised to give it careful consideration. Chun Ying did not quite understand his hesitation, but she did not press him too hard. Seeing that it was getting late, she took her leave and returned to her second uncle's house.

She stole a glance at him and saw the corners of his mouth curved like the crescent moon. That pleasure seemed infectious, making her unable to help but smile again.

"One Blade Severing the Soul!" The blade in Duan Chen's hand slashed out directly. A powerful force erupted instantly, and under this immense power, it struck the Sand Demon Emperor before him, the terrifying and fierce force sending the Sand Demon Emperor retreating.

A single sword stroke contained thirty-six thousand vibrations. How terrifying! One must know that this did not rely on holy power or Taoist techniques, but purely on superb swordsmanship.

In the Angela Kingdom, slave trading was a legal and normal practice. Rarely would a slave, provided they were well-fed, rebel against their lord, because... rebellious slaves were usually thrown by the lord to the King to be sent into the expeditionary force as cannon fodder on the battlefield, where death was almost certain.
