Volume One, Chapter Sixty: Miss Bai, Stop Always Inviting Him

Su Li rarely spoke so venomously; she was not inclined to say such things to other women. After all, they were both women—there was no need to make things difficult for each other. But this time, she could no longer endure it.

Bai Zhiyao stared at Su Li's figure, hatred swirling in her eyes until she finally forced it down.

Ye Binghua beckoned, and those behind him from the Mercenary Guild stepped forward, swiftly seizing Meng Jia Le with practiced ease.

“I’ll warn you now: anyone who doesn’t wish to take part in this operation may opt out, but if you lose your nerve at the critical moment, don’t blame me for enforcing battlefield discipline.” Shen Tu Haolong looked at Lei Cheng and his excited companions, feeling it necessary to remind them.

Tang Huaijin wanted to ask her, “Are you truly happy at such a dinner?” To be abandoned once is tragic enough; now that others have discovered her value and dredged up past wounds, the sorrow is surely no less than before.

“Because it began with mistrust, something vital was missing between them, wasn’t it?” She could not say for certain.

So much had happened today, so much shock and upheaval, and she was simply unprepared to return and face the Pei family.

“Alright,” Mu Ze answered simply. Before they arrived, Fujikawa had instructed him: as long as Shen Tu Haolong was willing to come, they were to agree to any request he made.

The Wood Heart had not awakened, yet the bloodline was unmistakably surging—what could this mean?

“Boss, are you really going to let her join us?” Jiang Ruan paused, then spoke again, his words tinged with doubt.

He could not understand how he had come to like her so much. He felt bewitched, obsessed, and after he realized he could not live without her, his longing only grew harder to suppress.

All through the night, Ye Qing fled ceaselessly, swift as wind and thunder, until noon the next day.

Having spoken, she ignored Zheng Qiu, who knelt trembling on the ground, drew her fox fur cloak tighter, and turned away.

After the two had left, Luo Xia returned to Biyou Village, lying on his bed and idly counting the tiles on the ceiling once more.

At this point, Lady Lu sighed heavily and, with a look of disdain, swept her gaze over Huang Ying’er from head to toe.

We rested for a day in Myitkyina. Wang Haiyang repeatedly invited us to his home, but my mind was weighed down with worries and I declined politely. To thank us, he gifted each of us a piece of jade. He had matters to attend to at home, so after exchanging phone numbers, he left in haste.

But anything is possible; the Nine Realms are in constant motion, overlapping every few thousand years. The power from the World Tree connects all realms. This causes spatial fluctuations, allowing realms to traverse each other and reach any place in the universe.

At that time, Song Zhi had not yet entered the palace, and though Zhao Yichen had not ascended the throne, his talent for governance was already apparent.

These two types of monsters had little health, but their attacks were fierce, for they were all magic-based creatures.

The King’s Advisor seemed to have gauged his strength. Without hesitation, he shot forward like lightning, intent on crushing the man before him with a single blow.

Having spoken, the county magistrate’s wife sensed something amiss. Between her and Luo Xia, there was no real relationship, only a bond built upon a lie of siblinghood.

Shen Yingniang had been stunned by this hellish beginning, but then she suddenly opened her mouth and sank her teeth into Huang Dabiao’s hand, nearly exhausting herself with the force, as if she wished to tear off a piece of flesh.

Ling Lan Sha nodded with a gentle smile, then turned her head away, making no effort to apologize to Yuehun, clearly showing she did not regard the so-called sect leader with any importance.
