Chapter 39

Shen Xi understood the implication of these words. She glanced at her, her tone indifferent: "If you no longer wish to be a disciple of the Qianxi Sect, go to the elders, have your cultivation abolished, and then you may leave." "No! I want to stay, I really do!" Tears of joy welled up in Du Xiaoyan's eyes; she wiped them away and hurried off.

This piece of news hit the circle of the Four Young Masters of Luocheng like a violent storm, instantly sweeping through everyone's attention.

Lu Bu pushed the bag forward and said sternly, "The man is already beaten to death; what other way is there?" Seeing that he refused to take it, Li Su’s anger flared. He threw the bag onto the ground with one hand, and the round Wuzhu coins spilled out from the loosened opening.

"Don't be afraid, don't worry, we'll go look right now!" Han Junyu immediately summoned a nurse to look after Langlang, then prepared to head out with Pei Shiyin to search for the person.

Spear and sword collided, sending sparks flying. Pang Tong was determined to use his Seven-Star Sword to strike the iron spear, but Ma Chao’s offensive was fierce and flawless. As Pang Tong retreated step by step, the spear appeared to him like falling pear blossoms; dizzied, he instinctively used his sword to parry.

Ashe unleashed her ultimate, but Vayne easily dodged it with a Q-skill. Graves dived into the tower to secure the kill, never expecting the Lee Sin to be waiting behind. Lee Sin landed a Q on Graves, warded behind him to dash away, and kicked Ashe back. While Ashe was still airborne, Karma chained her, and Vayne moved in to deal damage.

"Dad, Mom!" Hu Jinglei glanced at Long Xueyao with obvious displeasure before turning his gaze coldly toward his parents.

If he had not received Lin Tianyao's permission, Li Feiyang would never have dared to leak any information about him.

Lu Su had no choice but to say, "I obey your command." Although the others wished to dissuade him, they knew that once Pang Tong made a decision, he would not act rashly or go back on his word. He must have made full preparations; otherwise, he would never have dared to set out with Dian Wei.

It was just that Pei Xianliang had refused to say anything over the phone earlier, only mentioning that he was going to divorce Pei Yiling.

If she were to stand up for Miller, Luo Shunchen would surely demand that she resolve his marriage prospects, and she wasn't foolish enough to do that.

Ruoxi curled her lips slightly. "Your Highness is my savior; you are worthy of any grand gesture of gratitude." She said this to show Wei Cheng that she was not someone who forgot her roots, even if the transaction between them was, in truth, both ridiculous and pathetic.

Seeing this scene, Du Le shook his head helplessly. With so many guests and such a lively atmosphere, he feared there wouldn't be any private rooms left. Abandoning the idea of finding a seat, Du Le went straight to the front desk to inquire.

"Alright, let's stop thinking about it. You should hurry back. After what happened with the poisoning last time, we must be extra careful." Qian Mingyuan shook his head. He couldn't figure out the truth of the matter either, so he simply urged Yun Xue to be cautious and ensure nothing else went wrong.

Zhou Bancheng took the phone with a hint of surprise, as he and Dean Yang Chunlin were not exactly friends—they had only played golf together a few times. He racked his brain but couldn't think of why he would be calling.

After the time it takes to brew a pot of tea, the noise outside gradually subsided. As the Buddha statue was carried out of the temple gate, the previously clamorous temple fell instantly silent, and the chirping of birds became clearly audible.

"Do you think I will believe these words of yours?" Duanmu Hao picked up a fruit knife and began nonchalantly scraping an apple on the table.

"No need," Luo Qingrong tried to make herself look relaxed. "I just didn't sleep well last night. Sister, could I borrow your room to rest for a while?" She just wanted to get as far away from here as possible.

Ji Ruyan looked at the items on her desk and found a blueprint. Upon inspection, it turned out to be the fortress of Danren Castle, though Xueer had made some modifications to it.

Ji Ruyan and Luo Shunchen had been in seclusion for eight full days, during which they had stabilized their cultivation levels significantly. With one day left, Ji Ruyan went out leisurely to pick some fruit and make juice.

As he spoke, Sikong Zhaixing turned and walked toward the door. As he opened it and stepped out, he heard the soldiers outside addressing him respectfully as "General."

Zhang Jingjing looked up at the boy. At his age, shouldn't he realize that this was something he ought to do?

However, Guo Dalu turned those words over in his mind several times, yet he couldn't discern any hidden meaning or what exactly Bajie was trying to express.

Awakened from their slumber, the guardian corpse demons went through a brief period of chaos before the commands deeply imprinted in their memories began to take effect.

That said, the Demon Ancestor acted immediately, pointing a finger at Guo Dalu as an entire world came crashing down upon his head.

The Lin Family Village originally had about two hundred acres of fish ponds, but now, with the layered water tanks, that had expanded to over a thousand acres. Moreover, they were using intensive farming methods; while ordinary ponds yielded twenty tons, their output reached fifty or sixty tons—several times more.

Munakata Reishi suppressed the metallic taste of blood in his mouth. He shifted his sword stance from offense to defense. He was well aware of the gap between them, which was why he had said he would "hold them off" rather than "win."

Xiang Yutian was skeptical, yet he injected a trace of his internal energy into the Evil Emperor Reliquary. As soon as the unique energy of the Dao Heart Demonic Seed Technique entered the relic, it emitted a soft glow. When Xiang Yutian withdrew his energy, he noticed the color of the relic had faded significantly.
