Chapter 122: Persistence

“Ah~” Manyun and Xia Ling clung tightly to each other. The descent was incredibly fast, and the sensation of weightlessness made them cry out involuntarily. At that moment, Xia Ling had only Manyun beside her, and together they shouted, releasing themselves more freely than ever before. After bouncing up and down several times, Xia Ling and Manyun were slowly lowered to the ground. The staff unfastened the restraints around their feet...

There was no way Madam Liang could fail to understand. Besides, her son had also mentioned that these few days were already the absolute limit.

Old Ding spat out a mouthful of blood. Eyes wide, he gripped the blade with both hands and fell sideways onto the bed. Bright red blood splattered everywhere.

Hearing the two of them shout, the students who had been huddled in the classroom preparing all sorts of gossip poured out one after another, instantly blocking the classroom’s rear door completely. Like spectators surrounding animals at a zoo, pair after pair of eyes swept shamelessly over Xiang Wan, especially the crutch beneath her armpit.

After Leng Changlin got into the car, he said to the front, “Drive.” Qiao Hai immediately floored the accelerator, and the car shot away.

It seemed this matter was truly quite serious; otherwise, it would never have driven all these family heads into action.

Dao Lord Yuanchen’s voice was aged and his speech exceedingly slow, yet every word contained the sound of the Great Dao.

After seeing that smile, the people within the barrier grew deeply worried. Some had even begun crying out in fear.

She was still waiting to return and see whether Zheng Xuan and the others had come back. Their purpose this time was anything but ordinary, and if anything went wrong, matters would become extremely troublesome. Though Yuan Yun had been helping all along...

Ji Kai was somewhat frightened, but felt that the problem should not be too serious. After hesitating for a while, he picked up a stick and jumped into the mine shaft.

“No! Teacher, why not announce who came in first? Once first place has already been decided, what’s the point of competing again?” Dong Xiaoxiao protested.

When the flood swept them downstream, the two of them finally caught their breath and discovered that no matter how high the waves rose or how violently the water surged, the great tree remained afloat on the surface. At that point, they had no time to figure out why. All they knew was to cling tightly to the tree and refuse to let go, allowing the flood to carry them onward.

“Greetings, Master. I have come to seek Master Muxin’s advice on something.” Qin Feng also pressed his palms together and bowed.

“There are still two or three years left—perhaps not even three. The Yun family will inevitably be drawn into the turmoil of this north-and-south war. Grand Madam, I beg you to make a prompt decision!” Chu Xiu spoke earnestly, her words firm and resolute.

Somber dark clouds seemed to be gathering strength. The sky grew increasingly dim, and the rumble of thunder grew louder and louder, yet not a single tribulation bolt fell.

Seeing that the masked man before him could withstand his full combat strength, the burly man let out another wildly arrogant laugh, evidently thrilled beyond measure.

Thus, Tiansheng immediately gathered his Celestial Origin Force, condensing his voice into a straight line. With sheer force, he drove the surrounding flames apart, tearing open a fissure through which his voice entered the island.

Yun Ci accepted the crumpled scrap of wastepaper and unfolded it. At a glance, she saw a single sentence written upon it: How did you know that Chacha had bullied me, Sister?

After breakfast, Qin Feng washed the bowls and chopsticks, then went downstairs with Nian Shuyan and headed all the way to Goldfish Park.

Although Lu Xiang’er did not want to become too entangled with Huo Qingsong, she was so taken with the shop before her that she had no choice but to accept this favor from him. As for all the procedures required to transfer the shop from its former owner into Lu Xiang’er’s name, Huo Qingsong handled them all as well.

“No. Once the county magistrate stepped in, how could he possibly make things difficult for Mother?” Second Lady Lu gathered her spirits, handed the ox cart to Lu Hong, and led Lu Xiang’er into the courtyard.

The Crown Prince nodded in agreement, then departed with a large portion of the soldiers for the next destination. Qingxi was the key to saving the people, so naturally she had to go with them. With Qingxi there, Cheng Muyü would certainly be unwilling to leave her behind and would undoubtedly follow as well.
