Volume One, Chapter 128: Brother Cares for You

That fool—he truly is a fool. It is no wonder that when he fainted those two times, his eyes were filled with hatred; he must have thought she had deceived him and prevented him from following her second brother to become a pair of spectral lovers.

"That settles it, then. I will come to visit again when I have time. I’m off." Wang Zhi waved politely to Chen Qingxuan and sauntered away.

"Let’s go!" Zong Feng said, heading toward the door, with Wang Jie following closely behind.

She used these three colors to decorate the room: black and white walls, purple curtains and bedding, and a white wardrobe and vanity accented with black stripes. On the lounge chair, Ling Yue had laid out a soft, pure white fur cushion. The three colors blended together to create an atmosphere that was grand, warm, and elegant.

The man’s expression shifted violently. As a top-tier mage, his mental power was so strong that ordinary people could not even begin to imagine it. Yet, this voice had appeared behind him, and until that moment, he had been completely unaware of the other’s presence.

"Brother Tang, you..." Dao Heng’s brow furrowed with slight displeasure at Tang Hao’s bloody methods, but after staring at the aura of carnage surrounding Tang Hao, he ultimately chose to remain silent.

"You!! You’d better die in there!" Leng Yue had initially appeared at a loss, but the moment Lin Yang, that blockhead, spoke the truth, she flared up. She turned away, ignoring him as she marched inside, refusing to acknowledge him no matter how much he called out.

A flash of white light erupted. In the center of the human army’s command, a vast, swirling white magic array lit up on the ground. Once the array was established, the human soldiers, previously thrown into chaos by the demon counterattack, regained their senses. They tightened their grips on their weapons according to their positions to face the demons, instantly restoring balance to the fragmented battlefield.

Mother Qiao glanced at the thin shirt Tang Yiheng was wearing, and as she heard him sneeze yet again, she could not help but frown.

"But this person is not a girl," I added. I needed to know his sexual orientation first, at the very least.

Qin Tian walked into the bathroom without looking back. Just as he picked up his toothbrush, Lin Peiyao’s voice drifted in from outside.

After entering the canyon, Zhang Ning’s feet had not touched the ground even once; he had walked entirely upon white bones. However, this was the first time he had seen a mountain of bones like this.

"The blockhead finally got his comeuppance!" Xu Yiran was overjoyed upon hearing this. He hurried over, extended two fingers—pale to the point of transparency—and pressed them steadily against her pulse.

At the same time, Zhang Ning received a message from Zhou Mengyun, asking to meet at a secluded tavern in Tianji City. It was not yet the right time for more people to know that the Golden Bauhinia and the Purple Star had reunited, so it was inconvenient for Zhou Mengyun to come to Bauhinia City to trade with Zhang Ning.

Seeing his penchant for inciting chaos, I urged him to quiet down. At that same moment, the ghost of Liao Xiaofang appeared in the doorway.

Tong Chenchen parked her Beetle in the rooftop lot of a shopping mall. Up there, she didn't even dare to open the car window; the wind would have turned her face pale the moment it slipped through. In this prime commercial district, parking lots had expanded from the crowded underground all the way to the roof.

But I couldn't be bothered with such things right now. In my eyes, this fat pig deserved only two outcomes—a miserable death, or a miserable death after a life worse than death.

My mind was in turmoil, filled with the image of Han Ze calmly telling me, "I'll give you ten million; leave my son."

With four days left until Christmas, I went on a business trip. Regarding inventory and product promotions, I don't know where Shen Yang suddenly found the boundless energy to forcefully push the products into one of my major client's stores.

The last time I was dragged into the underworld, things had escalated quite severely, and it was only after the Ten Kings of Hell intervened that the situation was quelled. They had arrived in a black sedan just like this one. I wondered who could be in this black sedan, escorted by underworld soldiers—could it be another high-ranking official from the afterlife?

I couldn't help but clench my fists tightly. He was the one who killed Grandpa Wang. He had escaped from Willow Tree Village that day, and I never expected to see him in a place like this.

"I gave you the videos; without them, how would you have been able to attempt extortion!" Jiang Zhi suppressed his inner frustration. Even though he feigned an air of indifference, his eyes betrayed everything.

As for the Lu family and Ye Jin, they had been excluded since that day, but it was strange that they were nowhere to be seen so early in the morning.

Hearing that I had saved the life of the lecherous old turtle, his father’s expression softened slightly. He opened his mouth and spat out two wind blades, cutting the ropes that bound me and the old turtle.

She stared straight at Xiao Yuheng, watching him skin and wash the rabbit. His movements were skillful; it was clear he had done this many times before.

I could foresee that beyond relying on Shen Xiuzi to survive, I had no other way out.

Hearing Di Mei’s words of admiration, Xuan Xuan said, "It is beautiful here, but not as beautiful as where I used to live. My old home was very close to the royal palace. Later, some things happened, and Mother Yueqing and I moved here." As she finished, her eyes dimmed, filled with a touch of sadness.

"The Hades Kingdom... cannot send troops to assist us at this moment. Their main forces and many experts are being held in check by the Azure Kingdom. If they were to divide their troops to attack the All-Holy Vatican, they would be unable to protect themselves..." the priest in charge of intelligence reported.

If one were to put it that way, it would truly be a grievance against Lu Donglai. The main reason he had spoken that way earlier was simply to distract them, to keep them from focusing too much energy on him, and to encourage their infighting.
