Volume 1, Chapter 38: A Splendid Wedding, Unable to Make Contact

"That's enough! I have said all I have to say, Qin Fang. From this day forward, you, Wang Gui, are no longer my husband, and you, Wang Bao, are no longer my son."

Qin Fang did not want to say another word; she turned and stepped into the wedding car.

Wang Gui stood frozen on the spot, unable to utter a single sound.

She, Qin Fang, actually dared to betray him! She dared to divorce him!

"Wang Gui! What are you doing!"

It must be said that the mentor had selected a very suitable song for the two middle-aged contestants. Both men had distinctive voices, and from the very first note, they captured the hearts of the audience.

Indeed, only three members of the Red Team remained: Qi Yue was still alive, along with the elite operative Zhao Ting from the Field Alliance. The third person was someone both Qi Yue and Zhao Ting found rather surprising—the novice, Xia Ya. After a fierce battle, she had been lucky enough to survive, though, in truth, luck played the vast majority of the part.

But Zhou You could not bring himself to believe it. The Four Great Families were already so powerful, yet they were merely the tip of the iceberg?

Night had completely enveloped the island, and we sat huddled around the campfire, roasting sweet potatoes and corn.

Nothing in this world is absolute. After so many years, most of the venomous creatures should have perished; that one or two might have survived was certainly a possibility.

Lin Qing had been preoccupied with this matter for the past few days, to the extent that she was not paying enough attention while riding her electric scooter. A fat tabby cat suddenly darted out from the flower bushes, and Lin Qing braked the scooter in a hurry. Immediately, she saw a white dog chasing after the large cat.

Justin gazed for a long time at Dean's relic left on the table—a short, silver arm-sword—and let out a mournful sigh. He recalled once more the last words his dear friend had spoken while still alive. Every word, every syllable, even the tone... he remembered it all so clearly, impossible to forget.

Following this, the second pair of contestants for the second round stepped onto the central stage. They were the number two and number three contestants, both of whom were formidable opponents.

Lin Dongyang understood Mother Zhou Qingwan, the orphanage director, quite well. She was usually very harsh on herself and rarely spent money on her own needs; he had almost never seen her wear new clothes. In this regard, it was truly his own oversight.

Unexpectedly, under the cold light of the moon, one could faintly see that Zi Youyue's eyes were slightly red. Had she just been... crying?

Su Pan'er blushed crimson, glared at him fiercely, and could not help but grab a pillow from the head of the bed to throw at him.

Qin Yi nodded, turned back to instruct Nanny Feng, "Take good care of the mistress," before standing up and leaving.

"Fine, fine, we'll talk about it later. I'll arrange it myself," Han Caiying pouted.

"Brrr, why has it suddenly taken a turn for the horrific?" someone in the crowd of onlookers couldn't handle the atmosphere, feeling goosebumps rising all over.

His Majesty had bestowed this mansion upon Li Jingjing. Was such immense favor really granted simply because she was a Heaven-Tier powerhouse?

Her body suddenly went limp, and her previously resistant hands lost their strength, allowing Xu Junyu to quietly envelop her soft, boneless fingers.

If that were really the case, with so many gossiping, long-tongued women in the village—all of whom were so influential and demanding—it would be unbearable.

Liang Luo gripped Bai Hao's hand with a touch of lost control, her knuckles pressing hard enough to make Bai Hao feel a slight sting.

Feng Yan narrowed his eyes, watching Emperor Jiu Yin seated on high, trying to detect a flaw! Yet he discovered that he could discern nothing at all.

"I do not wish to resort to violence, but it would be best if you simply handed over the intelligence," Xu Yun said calmly.

Although both sides had only engaged in tentative probing, Daji was forced to stop, wary of the quasi-Heavenly Emperor power radiating from Ye Shaoxuan.

Jiang Lu—he would never let her go. Absolutely never. Those who harmed him might have a chance at survival, but those who offended her would never be spared.
