Chapter 61 Only by making them hurt the same way will it be satisfying, right?

Gu Yao had always known that Qi Hehe's parents were not the true power-holders of the Qi family.
Ultimately, Qi Hehe's parents, including herself, were being supported by her uncle.
Even so, backed by the Qi family, Qi Hehe had lived the first two decades of her life far more comfortably than the vast majority of people!
The Qi family had provided her with an impeccably privileged upbringing, yet the moment her existence threatened the family's interests, she was cast aside without a second thought.

Emerging from the detention center, Qin Feng sat in the back seat of a police car while Xia Jiang drove toward the Nanhua Municipal Public Security Bureau. Glancing through the rearview mirror, Xia Jiang saw Qin Feng leaning against the back seat with his eyes closed in exhaustion. Choking with questions he dared not ask, Xia Jiang felt intensely frustrated.

The morning sun cast its dark-gold rays upon the carved stone characters of the South City Gate, gilding the three words "Mist Veil City" with a pale, luminous gold. The two most noble men in the entire Nanxi realm walked beneath the gate, both overcome with deep emotion.

As Shennong focused on forging his physical form, his consumption of spiritual energy dropped significantly, relieving Zhong Sheng of his burden and eliminating any worries that Shennong might encounter complications from practicing the Six Techniques of the Divine Dragon's Water Absorption.

With that, Qin Feng took off his jacket, sat back down in his chair, poured himself half a glass of wine, and downed it in one gulp. The taste of Lafit was indeed remarkable, carrying an extremely mellow flavor. This bottle costing nearly a hundred thousand was effortlessly more enjoyable than red wine priced at a mere eighty or a hundred.

"However..." Tian Sheng's brows furrowed as his mind instantly zeroed in on several difficult flaws in this plan.

Although Long Zhesheng had not explicitly expressed refusal, his concluding remark—asking what the underlying intention was—clearly conveyed his dissatisfaction.

Nie Wanluo felt as though everything previously normal had instantly gone into disarray. Her protective instincts toward her family generated an unwarranted aversion within her toward Chen Yuling, causing her gaze to shift involuntarily from earlier pity to guarded wariness. Yet Chen Yuling responded with a heavy warning gleaming in her phoenix-like eyes.

Had it been anyone else, Lei Hanying probably would have refused the moment they opened their mouth. However, the person sitting across from him was his savior; if not for Chen Langya, he might never have been able to sit here at all.

Yet why would he help him while remaining on the sidelines himself? Such a prominent opportunity to shine, and Chen Langya disdained to take it? One had to realize that the victor of this event would undoubtedly be hailed as a heroic figure throughout all of Zhejiang University.

Seeing this, Mother Chi did not dare to ask further. She silently cleaned up the shattered pieces of the teacup on the floor, and the mistress and servant remained silent for the rest of the time.

Tang Yan cast a disdainful glance at Lin Jiayi, nodded in agreement, and turned to Elder Zhang, saying, "Elder Zhang's analysis is spot on. But if we do that, we... effectively drag you into these muddy waters, and afterward, Wang Bingkun will surely make things difficult for you." With that, Tang Yan let out a soft sigh filled with apology.

"Hmph!" Facing Lin Qin whose expression had already shifted, anyone aware of Lin Qin's formidable power would tremble with fear; even the so-called Elder Lin would not dare challenge Lin Qin's bottom line in this regard.

"The situation is urgent! How could I possibly not come over? Besides, having certain things prepared in advance will still be of immense help," Lingling replied softly.

Facing the power of these swordsmen, Chu Yu and Zixuan walked straight ahead as if they could not even see them.

There was no such thing as psychology in this era, nor would anyone be able to see that Li Chengqian was simply locked in a perpetual contest of defiance against Li Shimin.

Everyone stood up and left the hall in an orderly fashion, leaving only Zhangsun Chong and the elderly steward behind.

"General, the Court of Judicial Review has reached a conclusion. It was a suicide. They claim there were no signs of forced entry into the room, and Lady Wang hanged herself!" Li Yesi took over the conversation and said.

They were all people of the same world; how could these Netherworld beings slaughter the entire population of a city simply because they suffered a minor setback?
