Chapter 38: Cousin, the Heir, Have You Taken a Fancy to Me and Want to Marry Me?

Whether out of keen perception or a desire to watch her senior sister change into her battle gear, Qian Shumei followed Yang Qian in a swift leap, darting toward the bamboo building complex on the hillside.

However, what drew Ghost Butterfly’s gaze to her was not her pretty figure, but eyes that mirrored her own after the bandages had torn—a blood-red hue, strikingly unique and attention-grabbing.

He Manting groggily opened her beautiful eyes, only to find the person who had been fighting for the restroom standing before her. Feeling a pair of hands around her waist, she slapped the rogue in front of her in a fit of rage.

The most shameless thing in life is flirting, but the most shameless thing in a restroom is cutting the line. Feng Lin belonged to the latter. I just like my adolescent self—freer, more open, even more uninhibited.

It was no different from usual, just ordinary mist, but perhaps because he was circulating the Five Elements Technique, he felt nothing amiss.

The Jingzhao Yin’s face turned pale; he nearly stumbled and fell. Provoking the Song family had truly grave consequences.

Because the Aunt Tong she spoke of had a low cultivation level, being only in the middle stage of the Golden Core like Ma Liu, as long as Pan Haodong remained steadfast in his resolve, Aunt Tong would pose no threat to him.

"Anything else?" Ye Feiyang pondered. Since he was leaving, there was no need to tell him about the lawsuit filed by Lu Manni.

Pan Haodong descended the peak. Without rushing to freshen up, he sought out Xu Lan, Lei Tingting, and the others, gifting each of them a set of mid-grade spirit weapons. He then gave Uncle Da a spirit sword and Big Bear a custom-made heavy iron hammer.

In the end, they only captured some low-level soldiers; useless to keep, they were temporarily locked away.

It seemed that ever since then, Yin Yulan had never stepped out of her room on her own again.

Laughing at himself, He Qingfan had anticipated this outcome. Yet, at this moment, he realized he could still be hurt—hurt by those he had once held dear.

Chen Rong recognized this man; he was the aide surnamed Xu from the Prince of Nanyang’s side. In her previous life, this old man had eyed her like a predator, using every means possible to possess her.

The role of a support is heavy. If you perform well, it is expected; if you perform poorly, you are a burden. Besides, with no experience points to gain, who would want to do such a miserable job?

Ignoring the incredulous stares of the crowd, the seven guardian knights at Feng Zhen’s table stood up in unison.

Jiang Chengce felt a chaotic mix of emotions. Recalling how his biological mother, Wu Linna, had hired Kim Ji-young to deceive him for so many years, he could not help but feel a suffocating, indescribable pain.

Although the students outside were having a grand time, the members of the Nine Great Alliances inside were miserable. They had to complete their tasks while simultaneously channeling their energy to resist attacks from the Killing Wolf organization.

So, after leaping into the air, he performed a mid-air flip, shifting to a safer angle.

"My goodness, why don't the audience favor us?!" Ye Chen asked, feeling puzzled.

As a former special forces soldier, he naturally knew that a Barrett rifle was not something easily obtained.

It was too early; saying these things served no purpose. Would they even be together by then? Who knows? They might break up; nothing was certain. She would not make a decision so early; there were many things she needed to observe.

Mu Bai sat down on the ground, holding the Dragon Essence in his left hand and the Tiger Soul in his right. Two similar yet distinct energies flowed into his arms, converged in his chest, and slowly merged, then coursed through his entire body.

Guan Wuji trusted Hua Jitian unconditionally. If Hua Jitian told her not to move, she would not move.

Hua Jitian studied it carefully for a while and checked with Huangmao Xie Huasheng and the others in the chat room, but none of them had heard of this formation. He even took several photos and sent them to Xie Huasheng and the others.

After He Yunlong finished speaking, he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and sat down. Seeing this, the others found places to rest.

Li Yansong received news of Jiang Ruan and the others' return to China immediately. He did not press them for the whereabouts of Shentu Haolong but waited quietly for three days. Three days later, when Shentu Haolong first set foot on Chinese soil, the first person he saw was Li Yansong.

After nightfall, unlike the boisterous Tianhu Club, Tianying Security was quiet, like a lion in the dark—though slumbering, its majesty brooked no violation.

Lingling simply felt that Gu Jin had not yet reached the age of an "uncle," especially since he looked even younger than usual in his cartoon pajamas.

He Yunlong did not know what this faceless person intended to do upon entering, but he felt it necessary to feign sleep to see what the intruder would do next.

The Empress placed a lotus seed between her lips. The lotus was sweet, the core bitter, yet the Empress found it exceptionally delicious.

An Zhi did not know that the man had taken the liberty of switching her drink. She entered the office, sat obediently on the sofa to the side, and took out her phone.

"This is the Yunhai Sect. Let us not cause trouble. If we can give them some face, we should," Mu Lingyun said earnestly, like an elder cautioning a junior.

Seeing that the formation was devouring their attacks to awaken Feng Qinghao, Cang Chen and You Xin ceased their efforts, not daring to strike again. This formation was far from sufficient to awaken Feng Qinghao by consuming the power of evil spirits, but they were different.

Huyanzhuo was stunned. He had not expected Wu Yuanchen to forgo evasion and trade life for life. Under the terrifying might of this Red Flame Chariot, even he would likely have perished.

"Guards, seize Princess Jingping, and decapitate this traitor, Ning Yi!" Emperor Yongren stepped back after speaking and issued a stern command.
