Chapter 25

He did not know what this white-haired old man intended to do, but he responded nonetheless, only to hear the old man speak again.

"Vivian! Vivian!" Ignatius gently called out. Fang Li, who had just witnessed the arrogance and domineering nature of Ignatius, could hardly believe that this gentle person was the same one who had nearly come to blows with him just moments ago.

When she awoke, she found herself in a place of absolute darkness. She cried out for help repeatedly, but after calling for a long time without receiving any response, she realized that no one was coming to save her.

Circling from the base of the mountain to the summit, two days had already passed. He did not know if Yu Fan and Zhuang Shiyun had found them, but he decided to let it be; if they had found them, they would have sent word, so there was no need for him to waste effort searching.

Lin Chuanzhi was indeed at his limit before asking such a question, though it was quite naive. No father would be jealous of his own son; it is perfectly normal for a mother to love her child a little more.

However, Shadow One did not speak. He was also deeply shocked. He knew the target of tonight’s mission, but he only met Steward Qiao after gathering everyone at the Qiao family estate, and he was not sure if the steward’s words were true.

In his office, Lin Feng let out a sigh of relief after hearing the explanations from the Chairman and the Premier. Yet, he felt a mix of amusement and frustration; why not say everything at once? Leaving half the story untold had kept him worried for so long.

She also understood that if she stayed here any longer, she might impulsively cry out. Even though she had seen with her own eyes that Liu Hanfeng had been burned to death with her in the high heat, she was unwilling to accept the reality, as she always felt that Liu Hanfeng was not dead, but still by her side.

"It's fine, but Boss, I strongly suggest we expand the company's business scope. Although our alumina and electrolytic aluminum operations are doing well, I still hope to engage in more profitable ventures!" Olivia rattled on at length.

Yue Qingshan withdrew his blade, sheathed the Heaven-Splitting Saber, and slowly ceased his cultivation. He looked at Lin Tian, his mouth moving as if he wanted to say something, but he stopped himself, hesitant to speak.

Thus, it was the arrogance and rudeness of that corporate executive that gave her company the opportunity to negotiate a partnership with Benson.

Upon hearing this, Daoist Qingyun’s expression did not change significantly, but he chose to remain silent. During the silence of Daoist Qingyun, Lu Feng became even more anxious.

This was because, in any world, others practiced body refinement through crazy physical exercise, stimulating the body from the outside in.

Shadow Pingxin sighed deeply in his heart, recalling when the Sages of the Shadow had decided to have the Guardians launch an active attack on Mount Huaguo.

Just as the excitement on Zhou Chen’s face had not yet faded, he suddenly felt his spiritual energy surge violently, rushing toward his dantian.

The best option was for everyone to carry him back together; otherwise, choosing to hold or drag him might cause secondary injuries to Shili Xue.

She had heard that there was one at Ernst Academy this year, but she never expected to find one right by her side.

Nervously, she looked around, and only after confirming no one was there did she muster the courage to check Shen Jianchu’s breathing.

What he did not know was that Carrey Magic Academy had implemented a tracking system, divided into a "Genius Class" and a "Regular Class."

By attracting more talented individuals to enroll and study magic, the enrollment fees alone would bring in hundreds of gold coins per person. Once this "advertisement" was promoted, wouldn't the academy’s gold coins roll in endlessly?

Moreover, as he used body doubles more frequently, it was inevitable that observant people would eventually see through his ruses.

Thanks to the credit for wiping out the Riley family, he was promoted one level, from a Junior Assistant Prosecutor to a Middle-Level Assistant Prosecutor.

"Understood!" The rest of the team could already imagine that such scenes would likely happen frequently over the next few days.

I actually wanted to help her. After all, anyone being harassed by their own younger brother like this would be desperate to escape.

Yu Wanying and Ouyang Hui were very close. Because of Yu Wanying's help, her family had benefited greatly, and Ouyang Hui had received immense support. Her family would never do anything as ungrateful as that.

Some people wanted to retort, but because they lacked a valid argument, they could not; thus, they could only watch helplessly as Daoist Fuyun and his group departed.

The supervising ghost messenger glanced at Qian Mo, then walked past her and leaned down. The elderly man, who possessed an ethereal air, smiled calmly and whispered into the messenger’s ear.

The pristine cyan robe was now stained with a bit of blood... most of which belonged to King Youhai.

Two giant black pythons flicked their tongues, watching Lin Mo vigilantly. They sensed a massive threat from this young human male.

White frost immediately spread across the ground, congealing into a smooth sheet of ice, causing the wolf demon to slip and fall upon landing.

"Why do people only learn to cherish things after they have lost them? Perhaps that is just how life goes!" Xianling sighed to himself. He now regretted that his own prejudices had caused him to miss his father’s final moments.

The despondent tone made Wei Xiao feel a pang of sadness. Thinking of the confusion every child experiences during their rebellious phase, he understood his current mood quite well.

Then, with all his might, he pulled Tang Hui downstairs. "Why didn't you tell Liu Jing?!" Tang Hui said with some dissatisfaction.

Xianling saw all of this in his eyes, but he said nothing, nor did he display any expression.

Lying on the bed, I watched him warily. As he stepped closer, I pulled the quilt and asked, trembling, "What are you doing?"

Ye Wuhei had just gone down the mountain and had now returned to his room. In his hand, he held an ancient map—it was the map concerning the Nine Swords of the Netherworld.

"Momo, it seems like someone is giving a speech in the auditorium~ Let’s go in and take a look~" Without waiting for Xia Ranmo to speak, Xing Daye dragged her away; this was, after all, his purpose for coming today.

Wei Xiao sat on the bed, slowly pondering the recent events, and continued to close his eyes to feel the changes brought about by the Zhutian Xuan Gong.

However, he dared not show it in front of the Feng brothers. In the clash just now, he had already fallen behind. Concealing his true strength, he could not help but feel a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

Unfortunately, Huang Bin was already overwhelmed and had no time to spare for the affection between Cao Mengyuan and Shen Dapeng.

At the launch site, the area was packed with people holding national flags; some even had them painted on their faces, full of anticipation and excitement.
