Dantai Li pressed her lips together. “Are you sure you spent the entire day in Jiangning University’s infirmary?” She placed heavy emphasis on the word “infirmary.”
Sending her back meant forcing her to face everyone and everything around her on her own, to see her father’s true nature clearly, and to ensure that, when she faced a choice in the future, she could make it without hesitation.
Day and night, he dug underground, following a set of rules and using complex spiral paths to explore the entire canyon and the mountains nearby.
Chu Yun remembered that when he had said those words, that old bastard Chu Tianyi had merely laughed at himself.
Chu Yun’s tone was utterly calm, but when Liu Ting saw his faint smile, she inexplicably felt a surge of panic. It was as though Chu Yun’s words might truly come true.
Another young man issued a harsh threat. He did not care in the least about the old man’s anguished weeping; instead, he watched with a broad grin.
“No, I still have Mighty.” At some point, Mighty had obediently curled up between the two of them.
The fisherman was unwilling to give up. He threw away the earthen jar, washed the fishing net, wrung it dry, and prayed to Heaven. Then he entered the water once more, cast the net, and gripped the rope tightly.
She knew perfectly well that she had fallen into a trap. Since Jiang Huai had carried that letter with him, it meant that everything had been a scheme devised by Jiang Huai and Pang Mi—a trap prepared especially for her.
Ten figures clad in black royal robes stood upon the drill ground. Behind them stood the gods of the underworld.
Tang Luo shook his head. Although Pier Three was nearly abandoned, people still came by from time to time, mostly scavengers.
“If you believe the deaths of those two mean nothing to you, then killing them means nothing to me either. The decision is yours. I’ll give you one minute to think it over.”
Ou Bufan once again invited them to stay at the inn he owned. The members of the White Tiger Team all declined, saying they were already accustomed to living here. In the end, Ou Bufan could only treat them to a banquet before leaving.
But one thing was certain: compared with the mercurial Lou Shenghao, Ji Caidao was far more willing to grow close to Cheng Yinnie. She could even make demands of him without reserve, or bare her heart to him.

After being fed, the snow deer, nourished by a century-old snow lotus and a thousand-year-old black-blood vine, looked much better. Its coat was at least far brighter than before.
“Cynthia, you decide for yourself.” Long Ci naturally understood what the two men were thinking; he simply could not be bothered to expose them.
The other was an old man with white brows. He appeared exceedingly kind and benevolent, more like a kindly grandfather than an unparalleled powerhouse.
Your sense of accomplishment still has to wait for a night of—oh, hey—lingering warmth, athletic heat, occasional hot soup, with him, others, and me; oddly enough, there was something about eating blood pythons combined with the beginning of next year. What is the phone number for East Lake Street?
After hearing Uncle Liang’s words, Yun Xuan’s expression immediately darkened. Two men approaching the Great Perfection Realm? If they joined forces, they would likely possess strength comparable to an Earth Sovereign.
His elder brother was approaching the age of twenty, and his temperament had grown steadier and more reserved. The trace of playfulness he had once shown before family and friends had gradually vanished, yet he still doted on Su Ying.
Andy did not hesitate for even an instant. He swiftly retreated two steps, drew a pistol from his waist, and aimed it at Wen Ran.
“Yiyi, Tingrui was drugged at the party, and he’s in terrible discomfort. Come over at once.” Kou Ziru spoke urgently, without giving it much thought.
Xia Chuxue naturally understood what it meant. Yet the thought of encountering such a profoundly cultivated evil practitioner in a place like this still made her shudder inwardly.
Rhett was frantic with anxiety. A large number of vampires had suddenly appeared around him, hemming him in so tightly that he could not break through.
“This monk is filled with pure yang energy—rigid, fierce, and utterly yang. If I could learn even a little of his abilities, my capacity for self-preservation would improve tremendously.”
As she passed the village entrance, Chuntao suddenly remembered the two pickle jars she had asked Uncle Xing to make. They should be ready by now, she reckoned, so she had Sanyue stop and knocked on Uncle Xing’s door.
A-Shi stepped onto the stage without the slightest fear. By contrast, Zhan Yao watched Zhou Qiyin anxiously—not because he was worried about Zhou Qiyin’s marksmanship, but because he feared some part of his body might be shot through.
“Aren’t you going to look for Shui Dexiang?” Yan Yijun coaxed him gently. The suggestion sounded extremely tempting.

Yet there were several occasions when she had seen the gray-haired old man drinking tea with her master in the office.
Wine packaged this way looked far more refined than wine poured directly into earthen jars. That was precisely the price Shu Qing’ai wanted; otherwise, a single bottle could never have sold for several hundred taels.
But before her dagger could pierce Yu Ziyan’s back, several stones came whistling from afar and struck her wrist and the back of her hand. A wave of numb, aching pain seized her, and the dagger clattered to the ground.
Zheng Yating saw Mu Ziqing dressed in sky-blue clothes, as beautiful as a celestial maiden. She wore no makeup; her beauty was entirely natural, which made Zheng Yating like her even more.
A glint flashed in Long Lanf ei’s eyes, and he instantly moved in front of Gu Linger with lightning speed.
After hearing this, Dog Leftover happily handed all his money to the candied-fruit seller and took away every skewer of candied fruit. The brothers shouldered their load and prepared to return to the village.
Seeing the swallows return to their old nest, brushing the lofty eaves; seeing the phoenix-tree leaves fall. May this immortal enjoy a hundred thousand years of distant longevity, year after year, age after age.
Shu Qing’ai had no time to worry about anything else. She did not even know how long the main-room door could hold out, so she hurriedly took the torch and retreated into the room shared by the man and his father.
The king-level lizard that had just ambushed the three of them had already made Ye Xiao struggle to cope. He knew that the farther they went, the more difficult things would become, but there was nothing he could do except endure it. Ye Xiao was suffering, and the people of the Xuanyi Sect were in no better condition. The three of them could only gamble on who would be the first to collapse.
Neon lights intermittently illuminated her face, while the towering buildings amid the glittering nightlife formed a breathtaking sight.
“Tsk…” Unfortunately, no one believed him. They merely assumed that Xu Yuanxuan had gone to some marvelous place, discovered a relic, and obtained the legacy of several earlier generations of Earth’s inhabitants.
And within this pill, an extremely potent poison had also been added. Once it erupted, it would unleash even more devastating destructive power.
