Chapter 38: Was It Really Lost?

Lin Wei grew angrier the more she thought about it. Since the scene was already made, she decided to blow it up even further.

She slapped the table and stood up. "Let’s go. Didn't you say your nephew is in the hospital? Let's go there right now. I truly didn't lose that copper coin on purpose. Even if someone needs to be held accountable, it should be my mother, why come after me?"

"Besides, how much could a copper coin be worth? You can buy a whole handful for a dollar at the Jiangzheng Street ghost market. You keep harping on about it just because you want to extort money."

"Why come after me? I don't—"

Feeling a sudden release of pressure, Lei Tong saw Lin Xiu standing beside him and thanked him gratefully.

*Ugh,* why did he start thinking about going to war with the Imperial army? Su Ge suddenly clutched his head. Could it be that deep down, he harbored some hidden ambition to conquer the world?

Seeing Xia You turn pale, Kousaka Kirino felt a sense of empathy and sighed helplessly.

"So, Ayase, what was it you wanted to discuss with me?" Xia You asked curiously.

When the time came, Mother Jin Guang probably wouldn't thank Ji Yang; in fact, she might even lash out at him.

Locked in his room all day, Xie Taichen turned things over in his mind but remained completely bewildered. Could it really be that he was too cautious and hesitant because he worried too much?

"Killing them is fine," Luo Yue said, offering no further explanation. To her, anything that threatened her could be resolved with a single strike of her sword.

Under these circumstances, Liu Jianing was working with frantic intensity, striving for greater strength and hoping to earn more rewards.

He couldn't help but look up at the sun and the boundless sea in the distance, forcefully suppressing the restlessness in his heart as he asked.

The kinder Shi Qingran was to her, the more incomprehensible she found it. It stuck in her throat like a fishbone, leaving her tossing and turning at night.

While Song Chong and his team returned to the club to wash up and sleep, the forum message boards were filled with cultivation enthusiasts looking forward to tomorrow's grudge match.

Just as Zhou Chen shook off the scales that had appeared on his body once again, Luo, drifting on the ocean, had no idea where the path lay.

Since his master had given them their names, he did not know her real name; thus, it was no wonder he didn't recognize her when Ming Xuan mentioned her.

Fortunately, Du Bian was equipped with an arc-blade, or else this battle might have been turned around by those thirty thousand Kunlun slave warriors.

Seeing this situation, Nanny Jin let out a roar, her fury soaring straight to the heavens.

They were equally arrogant and narrow-minded, believing themselves to be so powerful that they had surpassed the Dragon Clan, seeing no reason to continue worshiping or respecting them.

Although Ye Qingyao didn't know everything about her older sister's affairs, she could guess a thing or two.

"How could you? How could you do that?" Tong Xuepian’s voice was sharp. She lunged forward to grab Jun Jie, but he stopped her with effortless ease.

When Tuoba Linyun shouted that out, the adults who had been whispering to each other were all startled.

After this matter came to a close, in October, Lu Xenze acted as the host, inviting Liang Yi, Wang Tong, and others to a banquet. Finally, at Liang Yi's suggestion, Yuan Yu was also invited.

Strictly speaking, for a sorcerer in the broad sense, occupation did not absolutely require lineage; it only required one's charisma to reach a certain threshold. Once one's influence over surrounding matters exceeded the boundary, one could acquire sorcerer spells.

Upon hearing about a gambling session that night, a soldier immediately grew eager. It was clear he did this often; with a gambler's mentality, those who won wanted to win more, and those who lost wanted to win it back—it was quite normal.

Her eyes were filled with triumph, feeling smug about having caught her opponent's flaw.

Daoist Chu laughed. "Tell me the specific details about Lin Ruoshui." He took a leisurely sip of tea, feeling refreshed and invigorated.
