Volume 1, Chapter 53: Haven't you always wanted to kill me?

Chuguang waved at him, "You must remember to come, otherwise, I will lose a bit of interest."

She nodded politely to Zhou Wei.

Then, she stepped out of the Bureau in a calm and unhurried manner.

Watching the young girl's retreating figure, Zhou Wei felt deeply puzzled. He was certain he had never met her before, so why did he sense that faint, elusive malice in her?

Thus, Yan Fei hid in the church, practicing his blade techniques frantically. Whenever his internal energy was exhausted, he switched to practicing magic; when the magic power within him was also depleted, he meditated and regulated his breathing to restore both his magic and internal energy. His single-minded goal was to find the owner of the faint fragrance left behind on his robe.

Ma Zhongkun kept his eyes fixed on Chu Tianxiong, staring at him for a long time. He was analyzing whether Chu Tianxiong had lied.

"Bring it on!" Ye Yu shouted defiantly, and suddenly he shot straight up into the high sky. At the same time, Li Rao, who had been running below, also surged upward into the air.

"That's more like it. Alright then, I'm hanging up." With that, Tian Hongfei ended the call.

"You don't just hop into a police car casually." As he spoke, he glanced at Ma Zhongliang, who was driving.

A breeze brushed across his face, sending ripple after ripple across the surface of Mirror Lake. Green leaves drifted leisurely upon the water. Ye Yu looked up and saw that the area beneath the cliff was completely serene, the figure of the senior monk long since gone.

The medicinal efficacy of the Spirit-Gathering Pill was far inferior to that of the Spirit-Ascending Pill, but its advantage lay in its stability. Summer was not an exceptionally formidable alchemist, so naturally he prioritized stability in his work and could not treat other people's lives as a joke.

If anyone else had done any of the things Mumu had done these past few days, they would have been dead for sure. But because it was Mumu, Yue seemed able to understand everything completely. Yue recalled a cryptic remark Bai had once made to him: "When you truly understand Mumu, you have already fallen into the quagmire of love."

After reinforcing the defensive restrictions around the house—which took him a few moments—Summer finally hurried toward the Heavenly Mystery Sect.

As the roar of motors grew closer, several vehicles swept into view in the blink of an eye. A crowd of people dressed in military uniforms stepped out from several military jeeps. A man of about sixty with an upright and commanding posture stood at the very front, while Hu Shuang stood slightly behind him to his side.

The previous awkward atmosphere gradually dissipated amidst the banter. He Wei let out a soft breath, wondering whether Wei Lai had told Nie Jingchen about her fierce confrontation with Ma Haojie from Qianshan Group at the meeting. Probably not; if he had mentioned it, Nie Jingchen would surely have asked about it.

"Very well, I shall accompany you. Niannian, think carefully about drafting the electrical safety manual. If your father is gone for a long time, take Chongya and the children back home. They are at the age where eating and sleeping help them grow, so you mustn't let them play out too late," Elder Meng instructed before departing with the clerk to meet the provincial governor.

Moreover, she was not certain whether the Profound Ink Illusion Realm would be discovered by others... Up to this point, the only person Ji Wei could not be sure about was Qin Changge.

Song Jiashu's request was for Shen Yuhong to cook him a meal, but Shen Yuhong's culinary skills were truly lamentable—she didn't even know where to begin when it came to chopping vegetables.

Nothing could bring her more joy than watching Cao Shuyun's face grow increasingly distorted.

"Mom, let's just forget it! I'm afraid Yanye will make things difficult for you. Since we've broken up, let's not have any more contact. As regrettable as it is, at least I still have Xixi." Lian Xinying did not want Su Rong to disturb the lives of Yanye and the child.

Yang Yunqi had too much on her mind, so naturally she went to sleep late. The next day, Lianyin was still the first to wake up. Seeing that Yang Yunqi was still fast asleep, she chose not to disturb her and went off on her own to prepare breakfast.

"Shen Qi, that's not a bad idea!" Listening to the neat, synchronized singing from the motorcade behind them, Bo Jinshuai praised with a faint smile.

"Not quite. This year, policies came down from above stating that we need to focus on economic development, and the county's targets are quite heavy. Your uncle is running around with his head spinning trying to manage it all." Hua Limei shook her head, a look of worry clouding her eyes.
