Chapter 35

She had followed him for several days. His life was dull, almost ascetic, yet he seemed perfectly at ease, even enjoying it. That was very much like Gu Fei. Everything in the house bore traces of Gu Fei. How could he possibly not be Gu Fei?

Without exaggeration, as long as his hands did not tremble and he performed steadily, he was practically guaranteed to hit the mark every time.

And if anyone else had been present at that moment, they would have been astonished to hear Chen Shixiong treating a young man with such profound respect—and even addressing him as “Master.”

A fierce argument suddenly erupted in the New York City locker room. The security guards in the corridor grew tense and immediately converged on the scene.

“Brother Ye Feng, save me! Please, save me!” Amid the celestial winds, thunder, flames, and lightning, Xue’er cried out in agony without pause. Her divine consciousness incarnation was scattered by the heavenly wind again and again, then consumed by the heavenly flames, the pain so intense that she felt as though she had fallen straight into hell.

A faint laugh drifted down. Han Xiao’s expression changed, and he swiftly turned his head. Caught completely off guard, he suddenly met Jiang Wei’s palm with his own.

“I’ll take you to meet my martial uncle.” Cai Siya suddenly spoke, leaving Qin Tian somewhat surprised. Before coming to the Shennongjia Mountains, Cai Siya had never told him that she had a martial uncle here.

“Do you really think she’ll believe you?” By this point, in Su Lingge’s eyes, there was probably only one truth behind every misfortune she had ever encountered.

The Supreme Sovereigns Lingqiu and Prajna said nothing. Their eyes merely brimmed with tears, as if they had long since known how everything would end today.

The carriage stopped outside the relay station, yet Dark Shadow still had not returned. It seemed the fellow would be difficult to deal with.

“What’s that damned fatty here for?” Qin Ruichao complained nonstop as they made their way from the front courtyard to the reception hall.

Wuyin said, “Something urgent came up unexpectedly, and they had to hurry back. That’s why they left first just now.” Recalling the way the two of them had looked at the time, he sensed that they had indeed been in a great hurry, though he had no idea what had happened.

Anyone would have been upset in her place. Yet seeing how sincere his apology was, her heart softened despite herself. She was still rather hurt that all the preparations she had spent so long making had been dismissed with a single excuse—that he had no time.

Seeing Mengqi explaining herself, Lingling said, “It’s fine. You don’t have to explain; it has nothing to do with you. I’ve just been exhausted lately. I’m the one to blame for losing my temper for no reason. I’m sorry.” After saying this, she went upstairs.

Even so, she could still feel his gaze fixed upon her, making her increasingly uncomfortable.

At the same time, Meng Yue’s body erupted once more with a powerful force. A dagger appeared in her hand, and she charged at her opponent.

He bore a striking resemblance to his father—nearly nine-tenths alike. Every clan head present had dealt with the former Lord Baili, so the moment he appeared, his identity was already clear.

The corner of Qin Wan’s brow twitched. Doing her best to play the role of a caring older sister, she patted Zhang Yuxi’s back and comforted him.

Just as Di Shang had said, news that Tang Qiansu, sect master of the Ninefold Gate, was to marry Feng Feiye, emperor of the Thousand-Night Kingdom, spread throughout the Cangyuan Continent.

When a colossal beam of light, more than two hundred kilometers in diameter, swept across the insectoid forces ahead, the ray illuminated the entire starry sky. The immense radiance left the officers and soldiers of the Xiahe Alliance fleet utterly shaken.

Watching Baruch depart, Colin sighed. Over the next four thousand years, the Baruch family would produce more than a dozen dragon-blood warriors. With his help, they might even raise that number by capturing a few Sacred Realm dragons and keeping them in captivity. If that happened, the experimental materials would be secured.

Yang Yi and the others carried weapons and were traveling on horseback, making them highly conspicuous. To be safe, Yang Yi had everyone put on the uniforms of the Divine Church army, thereby avoiding a great deal of unnecessary trouble.

At that moment, how could the greedy gleam in the Marquis of Azure’s eyes possibly escape Wang Tiancheng?

After all these years, bearing the Zhu family name had allowed Zhu Hualiang to establish firm roots in Hangzhou. He had become much steadier, and somewhat plumper as well. Whenever he met someone, his smile was even more amiable, and his manner of speaking put people entirely at ease.

After the Battle of Hubudagang, the Liao kingdom had lost its main forces. Its very foundations could be said to have been destroyed, and the domestic situation—which had already been held together only with great difficulty—deteriorated to an utterly hopeless state. Following that great victory, the Jin kingdom shifted from resisting the Liao to launching an all-out offensive, ultimately destroying the Liao kingdom.

Looking at Liu Guoyuan’s former rivals, two of them had now risen to high office. Although both held deputy positions, they had still left Liu Guoyuan far behind. Even those who had once ranked below him had now overtaken him one after another, becoming the leading figures of their respective prefectures and cities.

After comforting himself, Bai Zixu grew more and more relaxed. Once he had resigned himself to being little more than mud, he no longer felt that ending up like this was particularly humiliating.

From two to three in the morning was precisely when most people were asleep. Only at that hour could he avoid disturbing the other guests in the hotel. As for the receptionists in the lobby, he naturally had ways of dealing with them.

As the enormous fleet unleashed a simultaneous barrage, the many demons of the demonic faction raised a demonic spell that resembled a protective shield.

“Damn it, I didn’t bring my hood today!” Chen Cao’s brow twitched faintly. This was a disaster. Why had he come up here for some fresh air? One breath of air, and he had managed to stir up trouble.

Ye Fusheng decisively refused. “Damn it, this is my first time logging in, and you pull this on me? I’m only trying to sign into QQ. Is there really any need to make things so difficult?” With no other choice, Ye Fusheng had to take out his phone and ask Zhang Genda for help.

“Your Majesty, you flatter me. Everything Wei Ye possesses was bestowed by Your Majesty. It is only right that I ease Your Majesty’s burdens.” Wei Ye’s reply rang out with absolute conviction.

A two-hundred-member gang might not amount to much in a provincial capital, but in a smaller locality it was still an extremely formidable force. The headquarters of the Sky Wolf Gang was a large mahjong parlor.

Imperial Entertainment City was one of the largest entertainment complexes in Hangzhou. The first floor was an arcade, the second a bar, the third a bathhouse, the fourth a casino, and the fifth a lounge. This was the grand entertainment complex Ye Fusheng and the others had once planned to build, but the project had been abandoned for lack of funds.

After the portly manager accepted the money, he nodded repeatedly. “All right, all right, all right. Don’t worry, boss. I’ll have these beef legs delivered to you tomorrow morning.” With that, he greeted us and went off to make the arrangements.

“All right, then it’s settled. Call Crooked Leg over—I have something to tell him.” Zhang Xinsheng nodded and told the bald man to fetch Crooked Leg.

She had only just pulled a T-shirt over her head when Sang Rou felt a faint tremor run through the ground. Accompanied by a rumbling sound that did not seem far away, the shaking continued for several seconds before finally coming to a stop.
