Chapter 20: Deliberate Embarrassment
Song Qiao quickly withdrew from Mu Yi’s side, instinctively wanting to explain but finding herself utterly at a loss for words. Especially when she met the man’s cold, piercing gaze, her heart skipped a beat.
The coincidence was absurdly unbelievable.
Mu Yi, on the other hand, wore a dark, mocking expression on his handsome face. “You say you don’t want to consummate with me, yet your body is far more honest. You truly are adept at saying one thing and meaning another.”
Song...
Tao Sanjue and Huang Ling were senior disciples of Jin Fei’s grandfather’s master, who was a being capable of defeating a Golden Immortal. Only a Great Dao Golden Immortal could traverse the realms beyond the heavens.
Mu Sen naturally understood the thoughts of the River of Hades. Compared to any race in the primordial world, humanity was far too weak. Even if humans pursued the path of cultivation, they held no advantage against any other species. Having only existed for a little over a century, their foundation was too shallow. Although the River of Hades wished to support them, there were many reservations.
The Destiny Sword Technique comprised nine forms, each with nine variations, evolving into eighty-one lethal moves. Its transformations were complex, and only those with exceptional talent could master it.
With his three thousand years of life experience, Xuan Yukong clearly understood what schemes were at play.
The reincarnation of the Heart Devouring True Lord would bring a heavenly tribulation as punishment. The mysteries of fate and the marvels of its operation, if personally experienced, would greatly enhance Chen Zheng’s refining of the Spirit Light.
If the next variety show succeeded, he might have a chance to be promoted to management at the television station.
He never imagined that this unremarkable fellow was actually a Star Emperor-level powerhouse.
At this moment, the veins emitted a faint cyan glow, as if imbued with life itself.
Deputy County Magistrate Chen was now most concerned with this matter. He had just assigned the task to Jiang Dalin and Jiang Dahe. No matter what, they had to get the truth out—Wang Dashan had clearly lied before.
“Alright, let’s discuss this inside.” The burly man led the way into the great formation. To him, the formation seemed nonexistent, and his expression was as if he were the master. Just as Ling Duyu was about to produce the jade talisman for entering and exiting the formation, the large man had already stepped inside.
Luo Rongxuan, listen up. I’m telling you, don’t disgrace me on the battlefield. That’s where I made my name and where the Gu family started. Well, this might not count, but it’s still the true stronghold of the Gu family. You’re not allowed to retreat and wet your pants in fear.
Sheng Chuyi remained unmoved, as if the furious giant outside cursing was a mere bystander.
She held the bamboo stick, tempted to strike the creature’s rear, but seeing its state, she simply patted it lightly on the backside. She decided to find time to inspect everything inside its belly, so they wouldn’t worry in vain while it guarded the treasure.
This idiot was so proud of his naive thoughts, unaware just how foolish he truly was.
“So, how do you prove that this thing is yours and can be legally traded?” Bu Xu asked coldly.
He had no ambition for the throne, but the matter with Lin Ruyue made him realize that Wu Sheng was no longer the man he used to be.
There were also white glutinous rice balls, plump and filled with plenty of stuffing, making them so round and chubby.
Wu Shuang nodded, took a deep breath, and lightly pressed her hands on the strings. As her fingertips moved, a melody flowed forth like a clear spring.
Gu Yan tensed her body and glared at the Silver Wolf King. It was as if they were playing a game of who would blink first—neither willing to yield.
If Gu Yan could take action, that would be ideal. She didn’t need much silver—one hundred thousand or eighty thousand wasn’t even worth their notice. Thus, the family heads unhesitatingly instructed their stewards to tuck silver notes into their children’s and grandchildren’s pockets, then promptly kicked the man out of their homes.
Dian Wei’s face was full of shock, but his chest held more calm. Regarding the sudden, bizarre incident, this ancient man appeared even more composed and steady than Pang Tong, the man from the future.
