Chapter 44

"Asking for trouble." Wuchen let out a muffled snort, watching the incoming side kick, and swept it away with a single slap.

"Anyway, if this man ever dumps you or starts fooling around with other women after he gets better, I'll send people to turn him into a eunuch!" Regardless of whether Jing Yan could understand or not, Yang Liu'er laid down the harsh threat first.

"What's going on here?" The Three-Legged Golden Crow turned its head, looking over in astonishment. What had happened?

I was left speechless. This mystic turtle was just like Xu Dong, always speaking in riddles to me. Xu Dong told me I had the destiny of the Five Elements, but when I asked him what the destiny of the Five Elements meant, he refused to give me a clear explanation.

Seeing Han Yanyue kiss me just now, she must have assumed that I was having some ambiguous affair with Han Yanyue in this back garden.

As soon as those words were spoken, everyone wore speechles expressions. Ever since the beginning, Zabu and Jete had been bickering constantly. These two guys were like a pair of comical clowns, showing absolutely no intention of stopping at all.

Mo Qianqian stiffened her body, her previously cautious nerves tightening even further because, despite wearing only a thin layer of clothing, she could feel the scorching temperature of Han Jinfeng's body.

"It's loosening up?" I didn't quite understand, nor did I know what the so-called stability was supposed to be like.

"No problem. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I'll certainly do my best if I can help; we can't just watch this unlucky kid lose his life." My spirits instantly lifted. Having been made to look a bit foolish by my uncle-master earlier, this was my chance to step up and show my worth.

Fox Qing acted as if he feared the world wouldn't be chaotic enough, turning Bu Qianxun's expression livid. Just as Bu Qianxun wanted to retort, he caught Leng Ruoshuang glaring at him furiously.

Therefore, Professor Long had someone take Xu Feng to the changing room to put on a brand-new set of protective gear, and then led him toward the infectious diseases department.

"Ah-Jie, I will not agree to a divorce! I will not get a divorce!" Xia Ning practically roared in a shrill cry. The editors outside heard the noise coming from the office and cast sideways glances.

Nan Luoting didn't know what to say to comfort her. Originally, Mu Yimi was indeed pitiful for having such heartless parents, but later on, she had Feng Xiwu cherishing and doting on her.

Just as Du Jun's figure disappeared into the city gates, in the distance, a figure flashed out from a tavern, gazing at the silent city gates with a sarcastic and cruel smile.

"What is it?" An Changpu looked at her appearance; it didn't seem like she was merely displeased by the setback she had just encountered, but rather that she was in a state of contradiction and entanglement.

After listening to the dialogue between this father and son, Yang Lele narrowed her eyes slightly. What did Han Zhixun's father just say? Returning to Japan to take over his work?

Old Shopkeeper Li understood his own wife best; she was always someone who preferred to avoid trouble rather than invite it. Yet now, she had said such words, which clearly meant something must have happened at home; otherwise, she would never have spoken like that.

Because the meridians and vital energy were semi-solidified, although the green primordial energy was abundant in quantity, the poisoned area was restricted only to the chest—specifically the part slashed by the Iron Corpse's fingernails.

Ye Wuchen had snatched away Cheng Kexin. If not for his appearance, Cheng Kexin would definitely have fallen for him, her senior brother.

Qin Ruonan didn't know whether she should blame this aunt for being selfish. While money wasn't everything and familial affection was priceless, people ultimately relied on material things to survive. When basic subsistence could barely be guaranteed, others had no right to demand that those in dire straits still have the leisure and mood to put emotions first, regardless of the circumstances.

Yan Xun looked at Lian Xinying standing by the door in a nearly petrified state with an expression of terror, feeling somewhat bewildered.

Jing Ting had originally thought that the Yu family might investigate yesterday's events, but when she and Chen Liang listened to the report from the Chenxiao Guard that evening, both of them found it quite absurd and comical.

To reach the fifth layer of the Sixth Realm at age eighteen was something generally achievable only by supreme geniuses with grade-nine talent.

"That place is now completely under the jurisdiction of the Dawn State, and local policies are likely to change. It's better not to go there for now," Jiang Chuanxiong said.

Sure enough, upon hearing those words, Li Mochen's face instantly darkened, and the gaze he cast toward Liu Buyan turned icy cold.

Hearing the reminder, Jing Ting lowered her head and took a deep breath. It seemed to take a great deal of effort before she raised her head again to look earnestly at Chen Liang.

Qi Shaofan looked at such a large stack of silver banknotes. Even though he found him utterly repulsive, he didn't refuse them. Accepting the banknotes, he brought up the matters of business.

Zhang Chenhui observed Qingzhou as they walked, and seeing that Qingzhou truly seemed completely oblivious to what had happened earlier, she finally set her mind at ease.

Hearing her say this, panic registered on everyone's faces. Did Her Ladyship mean that the previous "shadow" had returned? Without delay, they immediately acknowledged their orders and left.

The bodyguard walked respectfully to Pei Shiyu's side holding Rose's mobile phone. When Pei Shiyu reached out to take it, she realized she was still in Chi Haoyue's embrace. Knowing that he had held her in his arms for so long without uttering a single sound or even breathing heavily, she could tell just how formidable his physical endurance was.

The Emperor of the Southern Frontier could not understand why the presence of this Grand Preceptor at the court assembly had attracted the attention of the Crown Prince of the Lixia Kingdom. Could it be related to the Prince of An standing right beside him?

Wen Rou felt a bit perplexed. Although Lou Dongfeng was indeed despicable, listening to this... there still seemed to be some murky details.

Zhou Yang gave Bingui a cold glance. Now that those few were all part of one cozy family and he was the only outsider, had he known, he would have brought along several of his own trusted aides and wouldn't have had to suffer this kind of humiliation.

As the Earl of Zhenghai retreated to hold Haoyang City, those coastal pirates grew increasingly arrogant. Originally arriving once a month like an unwanted relative, they gradually progressed to once every half month, and eventually became so brazen as to show up every few days.

I nodded heavily. In my opinion, Sister Yun and her parents would eventually mend their broken relationship.
