Chapter 38

“Qi Qi, stop messing around, I’m tired.” Saying this, Liang Ye grinned faintly at Yan Shuangfei, revealing a neat row of teeth stained with dark blood. He looked miserable and disheveled.

Yang Wei’s eyes widened as he watched him, finding the scene amusing. He thought to himself that if Liu Yanqing were in a TV drama, she would definitely drive the old trickster mad.

Xue’er blinked at Wu Lei, then immediately said, “Got it, brother. I’ll take it slowly.” With that, she hopped out, and behind the kitchen door, she didn’t forget to help Wu Lei close it.

Saying it was no different than not saying it at all, Yan Shuangfei turned his head and gave the innocent-looking window a side glance.

“Great Sage, Lady Ziwei did not intentionally defy your orders; it was truly…” Huanmeng remembered Ziwei’s plea for her and spoke softly in her defense.

She clearly recalled that Fu Sinian had once sworn to her that the senior disappeared because he had found true love and was on a honeymoon trip, which was why he had not contacted her.

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, Jiang Jian shook his head helplessly. He, too, wished to obtain that legacy—after all, such an opportunity was rare. But the problem was, he had never even seen what the legacy looked like.

Liu Feng’s face flushed; he took a big gulp of wine, glanced sideways at Wang Ba, and pursed his lips. Wang Ba understood immediately, picked up a red tassel spear from the tent, strode outside, mounted his horse without a word, and rode straight towards Liu Rui to fight.

“Let’s go. Boss, stop thinking about other things. Now is the time for revenge,” Xiahou He patted Wu Lei’s shoulder and helped him follow Zhou Cang’s footsteps out the door.

But since everyone had been drinking tonight, and Guo Jing and Yang Tiexin talked late into the night, they agreed to act tomorrow night.

Actually, if Tao Xiu had saved all the money he previously brought back without spending a cent, there would be at least tens of thousands. Yet his mother and Tao Bin refused to spend a penny on him, choosing instead to endure exhausting labor.

She did it on purpose. Why should she allow them happiness when the Chen family had destroyed her own? The Zhou family was considered the happiest in the Chen household, with three sons to protect them. Even Hu Shi feared them. With their clan’s backing, she dared not confront them openly and resorted to plotting in secret.

“We’re not insane. Jiang Chen is merely fighting for the happiness he desires. Commander, your understanding of love is too superficial. What kind of love is that which can be abandoned simply due to status or gender? As far as I know, even as a commander, you have no right to imprison innocent citizens!” Gu Qingkuang spoke angrily.

Only the sword tempered by the blood of the most relentless swordsmen in the world can truly become the strongest sword.

“Principal Wu, I believe our school should hire another English professor, especially for our class. The English here is simply inadequate,” Gu Qingkuang tapped the desktop disdainfully with his slender fingers.

“Ouch~” Xu Zuoyan groaned in pain, then suddenly shoved Ye Kaicheng away. He fell to the ground, covering his mouth in shock as he backed away until his back hit the cabinet.

Xuanci remained silent because the “Yi Jin Jing” was far too important to Shaolin Temple. Having come this far, if Jiumozhi truly had the “Yi Jin Jing,” he would have willingly handed it over.

“Single men, fall out.” Gao Shun’s eyes glistened with moisture. As the commander, he was also their brother. If anyone felt heartache, it was him. But war could not be halted by personal pain. With a heavy heart, Gao Shun issued orders to the men.

Ye Feng’s thoughts churned within. He recalled his former aspirations, his youthful vigor, and his former confidence. This rekindled his stubborn will and resolve.

The reverse-monitor, even after resurrection, remained in poor condition. He wore a ridiculous helmet, his right leg was amputated at the knee, his body crisscrossed with scars, and blood oozed from his broken limbs.

“…“ Pei Ge pressed her lips together. Since it was her fault, she said nothing in rebuttal, bracing herself to endure Linda’s scolding.

Listening to the flight attendant’s gentle voice, Pei Ge turned her head and gazed through the window at the scenery outside.

“Please!” The Ancient Master Mu Xuan raised his hand, and a stone table appeared beside the eldest Li brother’s seat, upon which steaming tea was placed.

Zhao Hun smiled, “No matter what, you young people are livelier and more spirited.” — If you want to be lively, go ahead. I don’t care. If you can tie down A Luo, it’s your skill. If you can’t, I owe you no favors.

Hearing Chen Zhixuan’s surprised tone, Han Ya felt delighted. She looked again at Shen Anqi, and when she saw no change in Shen Anqi’s expression, she quickly concluded that this must be Captain Chen’s sister.

Jiang Chengguo sat quietly waiting. Though his tone carried some denial and dissatisfaction, Jiang Chengguo was not worried.

Chen Zhixuan paid no heed to Shen Anqi’s words. She directly collapsed onto Shen Anqi, resuming her previous actions. Shen Anqi began to enjoy the sensations Chen Zhixuan brought.

The incident in the Beast Valley severely damaged the reputation of Zhengying Academy. That’s why Pang Dezong spared no effort to keep it secret. Even those from Longyan Academy were unaware of the details, let alone the fact that the spot had been desperately won back by Mu Hanyan.

Whether in her past life or this one, Siluo was attending such a grand banquet for the first time.

He Yan felt both amused and helpless. She took Fu Shenxing’s call and naturally had his number, but giving it to a stranger without his permission seemed inappropriate.

Just as Linquan predicted, the Suzaku Mansion’s master was unconscious. Although the Suzaku Holy King had seized the body of the master through certain means, he was too preoccupied battling the Taoist elder to control the mansion’s master.

He Yan emitted a mournful cry from her throat and struggled desperately toward Liang Yuanze. The two men beside her, perhaps surprised by her strength, loosened their grip, allowing her to collapse onto Liang Yuanze.
