Chapter 35: How Could He Just Kiss Me Like That?

"Yes, I’ve been married for over a month now." Jiang Mi calculated in her mind. Although she and Wen Zongfu had an agreement, they were indeed married.

Lin Cheng could hardly believe it—such a beautiful, stylish, and youthful younger sister was actually married. Instinctively, she asked, "How old are you?"

"Just turned eighteen."

...

The public was filled with complaints against these irresponsible media outlets. Whenever such reporters deliberately smeared companies to grab attention, their stories quickly drew widespread focus and resonance.

Though not offering tribute, the Frost Dragon Kingdom did not regard the Lightning Weasel Clan as a serious rival, often ignoring their envoys.

As for the recent one, he was certainly not among the strong. Thus, it was necessary to know he belonged to the weaker ranks.

At this very moment, before me lay countless fallen figures—all were elite warriors under the Dark Gate’s command.

A thought never before entertained suddenly flashed through Xiang Gangtian’s mind! Yu Yuanjun’s gaze also shifted peculiarly, even contemplating whether to take a risk and personally eliminate her.

Yet, it was nothing worthy of concern. Dian Feng treated her like a sister, and naturally, what a sister wished to do was her own business.

That same day, they did not focus attacks on a single guild but scattered their targets, capturing one warship after another. This way, the opposing side would remain unaware, as the destruction of warships was hardly unusual.

Those five bodyguards must have summoned their last strength to charge at me, determined to fight side by side.

In midair, Han Xuerou’s face paled, and she cried out loudly. Her strength was far inferior to that of the blazing blood bat, making resistance or escape impossible.

The dragon bat felt both joy and worry—joy for Dragon City, worry for Xiang Gangtian’s safety. It feared any misfortune might befall him. Should his soul be annihilated and true spirit dissipated, even if it ascended as the Primordial Lord, it would be powerless to reverse fate.

As long as matters remained under his control, Deng Chao could be a fool. But if things changed, that fool would revert to his prior state.

Hearing this, Lei Wu’s mouth twitched sharply. He wanted to retort but, seeing the other’s imposing aura, swallowed the angry words lodged in his throat.

"Rou’er, what’s wrong now? Didn’t I tell you everything would be fine?" Li Xiuniang hurried to blue-robed Zi Rou’s side.

Blue Zi Yue tenderly held Lan Yiyi in her arms, knowing that after being struck by the Hundred Beasts Withering Curse, Yiyi would be utterly weak.

In contrast, Chise grew silent and restrained. After entering ZONE, even without teammates assisting in defense or offense, he could score on his own. Compared to his previous near-commander position as a playmaker, his solo attacks were even more formidable—to the point of suffocating his teammates.

Long Qiejue’s eyes were blood-red as he stepped toward Lan Zi Yue and Nangong Chenxun, his gaze burning with murderous intent.

At that very moment, outside, Ye Fan suddenly spat a mouthful of fresh blood, staggered backward, and collapsed weakly.

One could say that because of Ying Xiong’s arrival and words, Bai Shu was saved—something Bai Shu clearly understood. He was now filled with lingering fear. Had Ying Xiong not appeared, Bai Shu would already have been consumed by his inner demons.

The best approach was to sit down and struggle against Xia Mo. Deng Chao fully understood how correct his choice had been.

If he truly erred and eliminated his own teammates, then later, due to insufficient numbers, they would be no match for the enemy, making him the primary cause of failure.

The bed was as comfortable as Shen Duo had said. The moment I lay down, I drifted into sleep. Half asleep, half awake, I felt someone supporting my head and feeding me water. With closed eyes, I drank a little, feeling as if I were a princess, cherished and cared for.
