Chapter Thirty-Eight: Shen Zhuoran's Seductive Heat

His heart felt as if it were being squeezed tightly by a pair of giant hands, aching with a bitter, sour sensation. A nameless sense of resentment welled up wildly in the depths of his soul. Who did Su Xingye think he was? Clearly, he was the one closest to Yu Lan right now. Clearly, it was because of him that Yu Lan had come to the Research Institute. By what right was Su Xingye the one to have the first intimate contact with her? The flames of resentment and jealousy burned within him, overwhelming and growing ever fiercer, taking on a twisted quality. Let’s see if you truly intend to squeeze this pure human cub to the absolute limit, draining away every last drop of her utility. She gazed at the pastries before her; a dozen pieces were nowhere near enough to satisfy her hunger. For this entire period, she had never been full, spending most of her time with an empty stomach. Ji Bochang laughed pointedly, "Although the Xianxia Mountain sect has despicable motives and acts in violation of human morality, they still maintain a facade of reasonableness on the surface." Xiao Ji heard a muffled groan and, fearing she was suffering from stomach pain again, asked with a hint of worry, "What is it? Does your stomach hurt again?"

Looking at Old Master Hu, who appeared indifferent to fame and fortune yet did not even possess a thick coat for the winter, Jin Lai felt a surge of stifling anger. Raising a cub is indeed a technically difficult task that requires a very solid theoretical foundation and proficient practical experience to perform properly. Ji Bochang cupped his hands to thank the guests, then stood by the door in his wedding robes to receive them. As people came to offer their congratulations, he returned the gestures one by one, inviting them to take their seats for the banquet. Once they became famous, they would have the right to more choices. For instance, those losers and bottom-feeders would no longer even catch their eye. Tang Zangyue did not stay in town for long; after delegating her tasks, she returned to Jiuli Village, just in time to run into a lively scene. In a desperate state, she scrambled toward her side, but unexpectedly, the ground beneath her collapsed entirely. Both she and the house were swallowed into the gaping maw, gradually plummeting into the boundless darkness. The more she thought, the sadder she became, and He Xin's tears flowed like a bursting dam, pouring out incessantly. The force was so tyrannical that everything in its path was shattered into fragments; this scene could only be described as destructive and unstoppable. Even with a weapon in hand, he could not compete with the person before him. If he were truly disarmed of his long staff, he would surely be in grave danger. In his desperation, he seized a moment of distraction to grip the staff with his right arm in reverse, using it as an axis to spin sharply, and as soon as he faced his opponent again, he launched a kick straight into the man's crotch. Yet, to their surprise, the guardian beast of the Rebirth Key Ring was not pig-like, only interested in eating; once it absorbed a certain amount of soul power, it would not continue, but instead convert the previously consumed soul power into sound waves and spew it all out at once. Thinking of all this, Liang Liang felt her drowsiness vanish; she was itching to spring up in a single motion.

The onlookers were all his classmates, but Lin Jiayi had decreed that no one should speak while watching the chess game; anyone who dared to utter a single word would be dragged out and beaten to death. The Titan Ape let out a roar and launched an attack of its own. He was wary of Jiang Bulai, but not to the point where he was truly afraid to fight. After all, he was the master of this forest; surely he couldn't afford to lose face? Within the Night King City, Ape Shanping, who had just re-entered, had his wounds healed, but the flower poison in his body had not yet been purged. No sooner had he entered the city than he stumbled into the Wang family courtyard. She frowned, turned around, and with a flash of green light, headed deep into the bamboo forest, vanishing in the blink of an eye. He knew that five years ago, before the Bi Shui Bay Hotel was developed, he had never come here, let alone made any vows of undying love. However, it was understandable; after all, Dr. Yu was still just an intern, and her benefits and treatment certainly could not compare to those of a formal medical staff member. The Sect Master pondered, "What should be done? Should I take him as a second-generation disciple? Or let Xue Fei take him as a third-generation disciple?" He had two matters to handle during this trip to Yunnan Province: the first was to attend Old Master Hu's birthday banquet, and the second was to visit the Tang family and meet Tang Yuanxun.
