Chapter 108
Xuanyuan Jingyang broke into a cold sweat. The way that giant creature had looked at him was truly terrifying, filled with a viciousness that suggested it wanted to tear him to pieces on the spot. He sighed helplessly.
Watching the man she loved eat the food she had prepared, with such a look of satisfaction on his face, filled Gu Siqin with a profound sense of happiness from the depths of her soul.
"Take good care of yourself here. If anything happens, I will handle it for you," Xuanyuan Jingyang declared domineeringly.
For martial artists at the Star Master realm, their techniques were not particularly strong. Compared to Star Sovereigns or Star Emperors, whose casual gestures could wipe out entire cities, they were far inferior. Ye Xingchen, relying solely on his physical strength, was more than enough to keep them completely under his thumb.
Gu Siqin walked around, flexing her wrists. Her expression was one of extreme smugness; faced with the current situation, she seemed convinced of her victory. After all, what was done was done, and she did not care about the consequences.
Facing Franklin this time, Wen Xin completely lacked her usual arrogance.
Chen Xi smiled, feeling a bit apologetic. Amut had not been with him for very long, but he had helped out quite a bit. If he could not fulfill this thousand-year wish of his, it would be a truly regrettable thing.
Faced with such a situation, he began to worry. Could it be that he had fallen under another mental attack?
Just as Han Yiqian had said before, An Jia'er spent most of her time in the hospital, only returning to the Han residence at night to have dinner with Old Madam Han and the others. Initially, Aunt Gui had been sent to call her and Han Yiqian, but Han Yiqian had made an excuse to decline, and Old Madam Han had not bothered them again since.
Staff Officer Zhang found this confusing, but he glanced at Grand Preceptor Wen, who had not lost his temper despite being mocked by Ye Xue.
The sky gradually darkened, and silence fell around Shui Luoling. One could even hear the nervous heartbeats of Luo Si and his companions.
However, this was not a good way to handle things. If one swallows their pride once, it will happen a second time. He could not stay in the State of Han to watch over them forever, so he had to solve the problem once and for all. Pinning them down permanently would ensure there was no more danger.
This scene made Whitney pout again, as Yang Chen's actions had rendered her preparations for a heated argument useless. She simply used the excuse of going to the restroom to touch up her makeup to hide her embarrassment.
At the villa in Hong Kong Bay, Yang Xuanzhen sat in his room practicing meditation. He could feel thin strands of faith energy entering his sea of consciousness, merging with his spiritual power.
Qing Luo was new to human cities and was curious about everything. She would buy anything that caught her eye.
After thinking it through, Liu Tong decided not to leave yet. Although Avis City was in imminent danger, it was not beyond saving.
Uncle Ming believed he was doing what was best for Li Qiang. Since Li Qiang had already offended the Peng family, simply handing over the wooden box would certainly not appease Peng Jiakang's fury. Only by kneeling to beg for mercy and severing his own arms could he hope to save his life.
However, King Qi left halfway through, leaving the confident beauties behind feeling very disappointed.
"An interview? Editor-in-Chief Qin..." Xu Heqing kept his professional and personal lives separate, calling her 'wife' at home and 'Editor-in-Chief Qin' at the office. He was shocked to hear Qiu Shiyu say she was there for an interview—surely not?
In the matter of Liu Cui and Huang Sheng's engagement, Mother Liu had gained almost nothing. She had declared then and there that when Liu Cui married, she would not be sent off from her house, and that she would be a hands-off manager from then on, refusing to involve herself in anything.
This activity was both a novelty and a form of entertainment, so historical records note that "many noble mansions and palaces followed suit."
Guan Chaojun’s body suddenly stiffened. His eyes filled with boundless terror, and his whole body began to tremble violently. Strange sounds emanated from his throat, as if he had experienced something unimaginably horrific.
After the misunderstanding, Jie Chen did not meet with Dao Liang or Fa Xiang. He figured that if someone with Fa Xiang’s skills had nearly lost his life, it was better for him to stay away from those people. Upon returning to the inn, he also avoided the boy who was about his age.
Li He took out twenty crystals and handed them to Old Master Ning Xueren; this was his "final payment."
She felt a great sense of accomplishment now. Her student had brought immense wealth to the family, allowing them to hold their heads high in the future.
"Wan'er, go and rest. I will process these medicinal herbs and then use them on the villagers," Qin Fen said to Wan'er while unloading the bamboo basket from his back.
Jie Chen's large eyes suddenly shifted as if he had thought of something. He ran back into the room he had just left, pushed the door open, and looked at Duanmu E'er, who was lying quietly on the bed. He pressed his palms together in a gesture of respect, then went to untie the bandages on her shoulder, revealing the healthy, dark, and smooth skin beneath.
After entering the Lu Palace, Qiao Mimi relied on her previous memories and headed toward Lu Liting's commander's office.
In her previous life, wild medicinal herbs had long become rare and precious, and were extremely difficult to forage. Therefore, most Chinese herbal medicines sold on the market were artificially cultivated, and even those extremely rare and valuable herbs had mostly been successfully domesticated.
At this moment, Su Hongxiu looked exhausted, leaning back in her chair with her eyes half-closed, clearly not having heard Shen An's question.
Cleti approached curiously and discovered that the priest was so diligent, using a knife to cut away the rotting flesh from the soldier's body. His hands were delicate, white, and long, and they did not tremble in the slightest.
However, since he was certain that this 'Evil God' had no murderous intent and had even shown an extremely friendly attitude, Rayleigh decided to thank him first—not only because he had saved them all, but because it was the respect due to a powerful being.
