All Mu Yiyi could do now was try not to think about such things, because she knew there would be no result. She could feel Lan Cangzhu’s mad obsession with her—at least, that was how things stood at this moment.
After Xiao Yu, Lili, and the others returned to their residence, Alice and Lina remained unconscious for most of the day without waking.
It was merely an ordinary bamboo house. The room was fairly spacious, yet four golden spheres hovered above it, radiating an exceptionally brilliant light that illuminated the entire room with crystalline clarity.
“Don’t worry. With the formation the six of us have set up together, no matter how many voids emerge, it will be useless,” the Sky-Swallowing Beast said with a laugh.
When Bai Zidong entered his office, even his newly hired assistant could tell that his mood was extremely poor. For the employees of Eastern Sovereign, seeing their employer reveal his emotions so plainly was a rare sight.
“But if things go this way, won’t your identity as Sect Master be exposed? Those sects will certainly cause trouble for our Heavenly Dao Sect in the future,” Jin Jian said.
Hua Wujie opened the black leather bag. The dagger had no sheath to protect it, and beneath the streetlamp’s glow, its blade flashed with a chilling light.
“Even among Profound Venerables, there are differences in strength. The same is true between Profound Venerables and Profound Gods. It all depends on the individual,” Night Wolf City said with a sigh.
“Only that freak could possess a body like this!” Xiao Yu failed to land his blow and darted to Hei Mang’s side.
Beside him, Bing Xiao moved with light, graceful steps, walking at his side like a wild goose. Yet she remained silent, looking as though she had no intention of saying a single word to him.
Before Zhang Nianzu could say anything, Ah San lifted the bottle of liquid with one hand and gripped the needle with the other. “There’s no time to waste. Let’s keep infusing him while we walk.”
He misjudged his grip, and the needle snapped at once. Half of it remained embedded in Long Taiquan Saburo’s hand, while the liquid dripped steadily onto the ground through the broken tube.
Zhang Nianzu was speechless. Naturally, he hated him, but faced with a dying man, he had already learned to take such matters lightly. Still, he was not hypocritical enough to claim that he did not hate him.
Zhang Liang was a disciple who had only just entered the Foundation Establishment stage. His foundation was still unstable, and he possessed merely a mortal-grade spiritual root. It was naturally astonishing that he had passed the Sword-Testing Stone’s examination.

From the behavior of Sister An and Sister Lin, it was clear that the two children still deeply loved the kind and gentle grandmother who was the Lady of Earl Jing’an.
The man raised his eyes to the sky. It remained a pitch-black expanse without the slightest impurity, save for the crackling sound of raindrops. His leather wallet was likewise speckled with watermarks, and to Mu Xichen and Fatty, he resembled a stone statue that stood forever unshaken in the darkness, radiating oppression and authority.
Suddenly, his wrist was seized in a powerful grip, and he felt the old man move. Immediately afterward came a sharp crack, and the room suddenly lit up.
Although the righteous path was stronger than the Demon Sect, one side had been preparing painstakingly for centuries, while the other had enjoyed peace and comfort for many years. Thus, the righteous path also needed time.
“Still haven’t found any trace of the Xin Tu couple?” the Tracker asked, steering the conversation toward a relatively easier subject.
Huan-Ting sighed. She lamented that the beautiful illusion had been far too brief. She merely shook her head lightly, savoring the remnants of that wonderful dream, and said nothing more to Suolang or Bai Lingge. At the same time, she felt even more grateful to them, because such a scene truly would have held her captive, leaving her unwilling to depart. She would have remained trapped behind the bridge curtain forever, never to emerge again.
At that time, he and Chu Lian had been married for a year, and Chu Qizheng had never once crossed their threshold. Why was he suddenly being so gracious as to invite the couple to the Duke of Britain’s residence as guests?
Zhou Ke threw away the water bottle, took her hand, and led her back into the living room. Though it was only a few steps, he remained silent the entire way. Chang’an could clearly sense the heavy gloom clinging to him.
Xia Chunyan had always said that Zhang Quan had numerous avenues for doing business. Thousand-Leaf Tofu should not have been something he was determined to obtain at all costs.
“I’m not reconciled.” For his sake, she had even gone to Shengde to study, solely to keep watch over Jiang Keke and Wei Yang.
Old Lin had spoken from the depths of his heart. He truly meant well for Qian Yang, and Qian Yang understood that perfectly. Had he not wanted to fight monsters properly and minimize the damage as much as possible? But he simply could not cooperate with the others in battle in the ordinary way. That was his bottom line.
Jiang Keke glanced at it. Although she was a glutton who loved chocolate, she absolutely refused to eat it.
Qian Yang fell silent. He did not know what to say, nor even what he could say. Then the inner demon in his sea of consciousness suddenly began to churn violently. After its fit of turmoil ended, its color had somehow grown even darker.

For instance, Chu Tianhuang had just saved him. But if he were asked to give up these gains, that would be absolutely impossible.
He did not know what had happened last night, but he understood one thing now: someone had slept with him.
Zhong Xi did not want Hongtian Film and Television Media to acquire a reputation in the capital’s film industry for never giving newcomers a chance to rise.
“I am truly heartbroken. We must thank the Hall of Fate for providing them with the support they needed at the very beginning. Otherwise, their circumstances would have been even more difficult.”
At that moment, a monkey came bounding out of the house. It was none other than the “Daoist Master of the Immortal Crane.” After scrambling several times, it climbed onto Thousand-Hand Granny’s back and gazed at Lin Yan, who had just entered the room.
A spirit body was already an extraordinarily powerful means of attack: it ignored gravity and could alter its form at will.
Of course, it was not as though no one had tried to seize it before. But before long, the Liang family would blacklist them. Even if you possessed a Void-Nether Stone, you would still be unable to create spatial objects.
“Lose your hair? What happened?” Li Shuo asked in confusion. Zhang Jialin was likewise bewildered by Zhang You’s sudden remark and stared at him without understanding.
After leaving the mountain estate, Shen Mo sat astride Lightning. He still had one final task today: traveling to the Five Elements and Six Harmonies Sect to devour the grotto-heaven within it.
