Volume 1, Chapter 37: Her Fabric Shop?
"Ling'er, come in." Hearing my master's voice echo through the cave, I quickly ducked inside.
He found it rather strange—how did these fellows know he would stop here? Or perhaps... had they been secretly tracking him all along?
After Su Qinghan got into the car, his hands trembled on the steering wheel. The mere thought that the poison in Su Ranran's body had been cured made him so happy he wanted to pull her into his arms.
Incited by Li Hao, the members of the Li family were stirred to a fever pitch, swearing to find Li Jiaqui and force the truth out of him.
Yet, having been with Su Qinghan for so many years, Su Ranran had seen every luxury imaginable; none of these treasures caught her eye. Her expression remained calm, as if she were in a state of utter tranquility.
A gust of violent wind blew, and the cyan haze surrounding Qing Lu dissipated entirely. To everyone's horror, two hideous, grotesque lizard heads sprouted from him, his scales grew significantly thicker, and a massive tail grew from his back.
Su Jinxi felt a fear she had never known before. They were currently heading toward the Imperial Capital, and Ye Youyao was driving through the night, sparing no effort to get her and Su Yu back to the manor.
"Very well." Su Qinghan took a deep breath and recounted to Su Ranran everything that had happened since she left, including how Yang Mitao had given birth to Mianmian and how she had subsequently become a vegetative patient, kept alive only by intravenous drips.
There was no need for me to serve; three or four stunningly beautiful women were already leaning coquettishly against the Demon King's couch, tending to his wine and food.
Lu Zhengyi naturally could not get out of bed, but when Er Gaze heard his mother's voice, he scurried out in a flash. Not long after, the child returned, carrying a bowl and a plate.
Old Master Huo's second son would not accept his gesture. Now, no matter what the old man said, he would not believe it. The resentment of many years was deeply rooted in his heart, and at this moment, his mind was completely clouded by hatred.
"We have observed that the demons have merged over a dozen space-time tunnels in the city into one massive tunnel. Perhaps they want to conserve space, or perhaps they intend to transport something even more colossal."
It is said that one cannot judge a person's heart by their appearance. As someone who has lived a full life, Chen Jun certainly would not believe the nonsense spouted by some of the villagers.
With production declining, orders from sales channels were increasing. If these orders could not be met, the factory would certainly go under.
The Grand Master of the Flag ignored him, staring fixedly at Ye Ping. In such a state, how could he possibly have the heart to smoke a cigar?
Xiao Feng tossed the two items into his backpack, searched the giant coffin thoroughly, and finding nothing else, jumped down.
"All right, I'll take you for a walk and show you our garden." Ren Yu took her hand, playing the part of a hospitable host.
Lin Xiong was like a child trapped inside a car; no matter how hard he pounded, he could do nothing against the tightly shut windows.
"I am ready at any time. I only fear that the one who dies will be you. Farewell." After saying this, I glanced at the gathering crowd of players and immediately used my Bat Transformation skill to fly away.
Once these words were spoken, everyone present knew that today's incident of Jun Lin falling into the water was indeed Jun Li's doing. Previously they had only suspected, but now, it was confirmed beyond a doubt.
"Oh!" The Heartless Fairy suddenly shrieked and stopped, causing Ling Xuan, who was following closely behind, to nearly collide with her. "I told you we would run into big trouble." The Heartless Fairy pointed ahead.
After speaking, Xingtian reached Feng Yao and gripped her throat. At that moment, Xing Yunji grabbed Xingtian's arm, preventing him from crushing her neck.
No sooner had the man finished speaking than two cunning Heavenly Dogs leaped out from the ancient tree, sprinting one after another toward the site of the explosion.
Upon hearing this, the Elder Madam Yang hurriedly said, "Then I shall wait for Mother outside." No matter how much she and Rong Zhan appeared to be "like true mother and son," they were not biologically related, and now that Rong Zhan was a married man, she naturally had to avoid suspicion. Otherwise, if word got out, there was no telling what scandalous things others might invent.
"What is my sister-in-law saying? You haven't even touched the wine yet, why are you already speaking drunken nonsense?" Before she could finish, a voice interrupted—it was none other than Madam Yang, who had just finished greeting the guests.
The Elder Madam Yang waved her hand weakly. "I am not sad about Mother Ping's departure." She was grieving for the loss of what she had gained over so many years.
After venting her frustration, Madam Yang took the tea handed to her by Nanny Rong and sipped it, finally feeling a bit better. But when she looked up, she saw Jun Lin standing to the side with a detached expression, showing no sign of sharing her mother's indignation or concern. A fresh wave of anger surged to her head.
"Brother Gu Qing, you're finally here! It was so hard to stall him..." Shu Yi said with a chuckle as he walked up to Gu Qing. While he himself was no match for Mu Yi, Gu Qing was different—he was a genuine expert of the Moon Spirit Realm.
He was aware of the war between humans and demons; otherwise, he would not have sent only a clone. Had his true form arrived, he could have reached this place in an instant.
With a long, mournful sigh, Ren Shui's figure vanished, leaving the Zixiao Palace incomparably desolate, like a dead domain.
No matter how powerful the sword formation or how high its quality, it would be reduced to ash in an instant before the power of destruction.
At the thought of Zhao Mu, Zhang Ling's expression changed, his eyes widening as he scanned the room.
When Lin Canghai arrived at the basement, he found the heavy door locked from the inside. Without a second thought, seeing that no one came to open it, he kicked it open.
Chi Bo had just been discussing the search for the final World Heart Bead fragment with Chu Tianshuang when the sudden surge of power from Qian Wu alerted the entire Jiuli tribe, causing everyone to rush over to investigate.
