As for Old Mrs. Li, fearing she might not be able to process the news, the group reached a consensus to keep it from her for the time being, planning to explain it gradually on the road.

Xiangye hung upside down from the corner of the wall like a spider spinning a web, his tongue lightly licking the blood off a fruit knife.
"I'll kill you!" Jun Wuyai’s eyes were bloodshot. He struck with agile, fierce, and wind-like speed; had Mi Qingxue not been on guard, she would surely have been killed.
Mingyue is only fourteen, but because her age was registered by the lunar calendar at birth, her ID card states she is fifteen. Mingyue said that after the baby is born, she plans to register her marriage with that doctor in South Korea, and it is possible she may never return.

Water? Dou Jiang followed the direction of that trembling finger. The faucet was running with a "whoosh," but instead of water, a mass of flesh-colored worms poured out.
"Master, let them kneel a while longer. It won't kill them!" There was an indescribable cruelty in Li Xinyuan’s tone.
Now, Wang Haoming, the owner of the raw jadeite, found himself pushed to the sidelines by the numerous jade merchants. He was happy to take a break; the scene today was truly a bit too stimulating, and he felt quite exhausted.
He didn't dare touch the food delivered by the Imperial Kitchen, and even after Zhou Quan tasted everything for him, he still refused to eat, terrified there might be poison that would kill him the moment it touched his lips.
"What is it? Didn't eat breakfast, did you!" Qin Muyang’s voice was not loud, yet it was so icy that it made one shudder.
"This snake is just big; it doesn't even count as a first-tier fierce beast. Watch me slay it." Bacon was the type to bully the weak and fear the strong. He drew his sword and charged, delivering a diagonal slash; a flash of holy light erupted from the blade, instantly severing the bowl-thick giant snake in two.
"Yun He, I don’t know what kind of divine being you are, but I have fallen to this state and there is no turning back. From the heavens to the earth, I have no place to call home. Just leave me be." Yan Ziling’s tears fell wretchedly once more, and he lowered his head in grief.
This sort of thing is like Starbucks coffee—it isn't necessarily better than Nescafé, but it has a big name and carries a high price tag. Some people just like to go there to show off, and there is nothing you can do about it.
"Trying to call for reinforcements? No way!" The White Wolf Demon shrieked, opening its maw to spray a torrent of flames at the Blue Phoenix.
Jinling City, which had been overcast all day, saw the sky fill with sunset clouds by evening. The orange-red glow shone upon the snow-white drifts, reflecting a dazzling radiance.
Liao Yong glanced at Qin Muyang and sighed inwardly, having no choice but to fasten his cloak for him again. He only thought to himself that for this Fourth Young Master, meeting Yang Jinxin had made him do all sorts of things. He had thought they were rushing back to prepare for a wedding, but it turned out to be just to accompany a beauty to watch a play and lighten her mood.
Dai Jin could not help but be astonished by Mi Han’s audacity. It could be said that the idea Mi Han proposed was something even Dai Jin had never dared to contemplate; it was truly brilliant, yet if one were the least bit careless, it was also fraught with extreme danger.
Iron Block made a few phone calls, as if giving orders to his subordinates. After hanging up, his expression turned grim.
Tang Zeng silently praised the monkey, identified the direction, transformed into the guise of a guard from the Scissor Hell, and snuck toward the Scissor Palace.

"Yun Lai, you will kill me, I understand that. But you called me 'Big Brother' for years. We don't need to speak of how deep our bond was, but there was some sentiment there. Now that your schemes are so profound and I have fallen into your hands, I have nothing more to say."
Princess Pingyang had always been charitable. The steward first looked at Liu Che, and seeing he wasn't paying attention, he signaled for a servant to go inside and bring out some food.
Feng Xi was a bit more high-profile now, but generally speaking, the Xi-jie before them was still the same Xi-jie; the aura about her had not changed at all.

The disciples below were already impatient, shouting for the two to attack quickly. Yet, the two continued to walk in measured, leisurely steps, swaying slightly with faint smiles on their faces.
Chen Changan had already seen Luo Yizi earlier, which meant that seeing her again would not have much of an impact, so nothing should go wrong.
