Volume 1, Chapter 69: Do I Look Like a Sucker Taking the Blame?

The moment he saw Liancheng Yiyao, Jun Chenhan's expression instantly turned icy. The intelligence he had received indicated that Ling Qing was here—to be precise, in this very car—yet he had never expected that bastard Liancheng Yiyao to be here as well.

Moreover, the soul of the living used as a catalyst would also be trapped within the black soil, and the moment the gu worm larvae matured, they would devour him entirely.

Though her words sounded as though she had Yu Xian's best interests at heart, right now, Liancheng Yanran's brows were laced entirely with impatience toward Yu Xian.

The return trip was fairly smooth, with just a brief passage through some standing water at the lowest point of the "bowling pin" section. Fortunately, the car had a high chassis, so the electric motor was unaffected. Zong Ming parked the car back in its original spot and climbed back through the window into his room, where the Cuban nurse was sleeping soundly, letting out soft snores.

Levis and Zong Ming exchanged a glance, both coming to a silent understanding—this Zhou Baomei was likely another super-brain.

That punch finally landed. I felt my head go numb, and I collapsed straight to the ground. For a moment, my vision was filled with flashing stars, accompanied by the sinking thought that today... I was truly finished.

The gift you're giving your father-in-law could be worth a hundred million?! You Dayong was thinking that no wonder these fellows claimed they wanted to compensate his son ten million.

How on earth did Yan Yi find out about this matter, and when did he know?

Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the expressions of quite a few people turned immensely unsightly. Does this mean resting is not even allowed here?

In the afternoon, as soon as I arrived in the classroom, I was dumbfounded. Strangely, neither Lan Fei nor Lin Nana had come to class. Usually, they arrived earlier than me every day; today must have been the day the sun rose from the west.

"This auntie looks kind-faced, she's much more pleasing to my eyes." Su Chunlai lowered his head and shoved another large chunk of split firewood into the stove.

Su Jiedyu lowered her gaze and whispered softly, "So that's how it is... Lan Ji is very glad she could be of help." With that, she seemed somewhat anxious to leave, turning hastily and getting into the car. Just before dropping the curtain, she paused for a fraction of a second.

Prince Duan suddenly recalled what Zisu had mentioned about mugwort being able to repel mosquitoes, so he had taken his guards to gather a large bundle of it and lit a circle of it around their campsite. Sure enough, the mosquitoes decreased significantly, and the guards could not help but marvel secretly, feeling an even greater admiration for Zisu.

"I appreciate people who are obedient." Xia Yang looked at the leopard-headed man in front of him, a sinister smile creeping across his face.

The person who had been entirely calm just a moment ago suddenly seemed as though his soul had been replaced, howling and screaming hysterically.

"Brother Fei, what do you mean? Big brother, you've got the wrong person!" Wang Qiang lay across the front of the car, his face plastered with tension.

The bows brought by every contestant are inspected beforehand, including the bowstrings, so it is extremely rare for anyone to tamper with a bow during a competition. But rare does not mean impossible, and the referee leaned toward Su Changzhi's view that something had likely gone wrong with the bow itself.

The purpose was to prevent this from being a trap; the ancient palace represented the Tiepan Sect and could guarantee that the Liu family would not wipe out the others.

"I'd like to find Wang Meng from your class, is he around right now?" I smiled inwardly, thinking that pulling out a giant like Lu Shuai really had an extraordinary effect—the other party's expression instantly shifted from disdain to tension. At this thought, I licked my lips and offered a faint, gentle smile.

Only when Plum Blossom raised her head did she finally see the newcomer's face, and a hint of a smile inevitably crept into her eyes.

"Let's venture deeper into this palace. The sooner we finish exploring this place, the sooner we can leave." Cui Feng stood up and walked toward the courtyard.

As for drinking, Chen Yi had been led into it by that fellow Wang Qingshan. In the past, he rarely touched alcohol, but now? He had to drink a little at every single meal, as if something was missing without it. Yet Chen Yi knew his limits and never overindulged unless he was with his brothers.

Shortly after, a blood-red spiritual rain began to fall from the sky, and once this red rain started, it continued for more than half a year!

"It's a pity her heart already belongs to another, otherwise I would definitely pursue her with all my might." Puhai Chao lowered his head, clenching his fists tightly against his chest and shaking them with force.

Early in the morning, Shi Daoran, who had spent the entire night working overtime at the company, had already returned home. He was sitting in the dining room eating when Gu Ningning appeared before him with her eyes swollen as large as two walnuts, giving Shi Daoran a tremendous shock.

The Tianshui Xiluodan slowly rose into the sky, meeting the thunder head-on, and began spinning rapidly to disperse the thunder's force. Meanwhile, the Tianhe White Jade Cauldron began absorbing the thunder on a massive scale to temper its body. "Wah wah wah~!" Cries of an infant echoed intermittently from within the pill.

Upon seeing this, the eunuch dared not think further; he hurriedly agreed, pushed open the single closed palace door, and stepped aside to clear the entrance.

"No one is challenging?" The words seemed squeezed out from between his teeth. The Qi-refining practitioner he had bribed had already advanced to the second round and could no longer issue a challenge. Could it be that he had to simply watch Chen Yi advance?

"Thank you, Your Highness. I will certainly live up to your trust and successfully complete the establishment of the Naval Academy," Chen Ning stood up and saluted.

Yang Linxiao took a taxi home, collapsed onto the sofa, and was just drifting off to sleep when his phone suddenly rang. "Hey, Yang Linxiao, I'm near your pet shop. Come meet me, I need you for something." It was his fair-weather friend Li Mi, undoubtedly broke again.

harboring gratitude toward the senior sister, Xun Yi left the Xuanfang Sect. Disciples who placed in the top three were granted a month-long family visit holiday, but this time was far from enough to go find Xiyang. Therefore, Xun Yi only wandered within a thousand-li radius of the Xuanfang Sect, and after much deliberation, he retrieved the storage pouch containing Liyan.

She naturally hadn't used the medicine tonight, because tonight her face was both itchy and painful, and upon looking in the mirror, she discovered the ulceration had worsened even further. How could she possibly dare to use Murong Qiqi's medicine?

"Lure them out? Easier said than done. If it were that easy to lure them out, would we need to form such an alliance?" Commander Xiong remarked.

However, she very naturally placed those two vegetable dishes on the man's side, while the crispy beef strips, pan-fried shrimp, and vegetable meatball soup were all set on Daddy's side.

A mouthful of fresh juice spurted from Chen Mo's mouth, splashing squarely across Kong Rong's face. Amidst Kong Rong's shock, Chen Mo's body went limp and he collapsed to the bottom of the pit.
