Volume 1, Chapter 27: Their First Kiss

(Page 1 of 3)
Other papers included expired checks, returned transfer vouchers, shredded international letters, and a notarized agreement in which Su Qiuyu voluntarily relinquished her gift of assets and inheritance rights. The document had been signed and processed by Jiang Zifei, her legal guardian during her minority.

They formed a thick stack, every page a secret belonging solely to Jiang Zifei.

Yet, every page was inextricably linked to Su Qiuyu.

Su Qiuyu’s eyes were calm, like the moon on an autumn night. She looked through them one by one, her expression unruffled.

Until she flipped to a stack of torn paper fragments.

It was a court letter; those agreements to relinquish inheritance had been deemed invalid. The court ruled that the notarization process was illegal, and those notarized documents held no legal...

"Hahahaha..." Every word Han Yue spoke drew bursts of laughter. Hong Chen and the members of the Hong family felt disgraced, wishing they could crawl into a hole.

"Stop talking nonsense. A bet is a bet. What kind of favor do I owe you?" Tang Chuan said, indignant, questioning him with an arrogant and angry air.

At the far corner of the street, a snow-white Peugeot sat quietly. The handsome Asian man inside the car wore a smile filled with blessings.

It was impossible to tell if it was night or day outside; the thick scent of blood mingled with severed limbs. So many people had come together, and so many had departed together.

At this moment, the wealthy young heir who had accompanied Fang Shaoqiang from Hong Kong could no longer bear to watch. He hurried forward, trying to support Fang Shaoqiang.

Why did the injury on his back heal immediately upon encountering this lake water? Why did the *jinpo* spirits that had been strangling Zhuo Xiong, intent on his death, release their grip in their final moments? It was all because of that drop of blood—he was a descendant of the Yinglong.

Clearly, the other guests, like Leng Ran, had all walked ten meters out of the inn and turned the corner to that restaurant. He Ziyan, however, was different. Was there a shortcut? Thus, her laziness was indulged.

When Xuan stepped onto the Skeleton Platform, the black cat missing a leg appeared again, blocking his path. Regardless of whether it could actually stop him, Xuan would have to spend time dealing with its presence. Yet, Xuan had calculated the return route; not a second could be spared.

"Oh no! It’s a trap!" Wang Chen was horrified. He wanted to strike, but it was already too late. The masked man and the Bull Demon King jumped up simultaneously, each firing a strange crimson beam and a sheet of cyan glow toward the two people rushing in.

A sniper's offensive power was terrifyingly strong, but in exchange, their other abilities were pitifully weak. Had it been any other profession, even an Elementalist, this kind of rapid sprinting wouldn't have been much of an issue. But for these two snipers, it was exhausting.

Lin Hao, Yang Yan, and Zi Han’s group breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the other side was not suspicious. They continued to move forward until they finally came to a stop between the two warships, steadying themselves.

The giant python suddenly let out a low, piercing shriek, then fell to the ground with a thud, rolling incessantly in place.

At the moment when his spiritual energy swelled to its peak, Ye Haoxuan truly felt as if his life were nearing its end.

The terrifying power of the sword and the pervasive pressure made his scalp tingle, and he could not help but gasp in the depths of his heart.

Another month passed. After studying for more than ten days, Gu Geduo finally mastered the refining techniques for spiritual potions, drawing from the insights provided by Yue Wan'er.

However, while Pojun was shocked, he did not know that the turmoil in Cao Sifeng’s heart was even more tempestuous.

After resolving the war in England, William no longer felt such urgency. Furthermore, according to intelligence from the front lines, both the Rhine battlefield and the Aquitaine battlefield in France had reached a stalemate, with neither side able to do anything to the other.

The Alliance Leader did not directly scold the prince of the Tianyu Divine Kingdom because of his status. Although everyone who came to the War Rune Alliance started as a novice rune master, the status of the Divine Kingdom's royal family was extraordinary. If it had been anyone other than the royals, the Alliance Leader would have scolded them himself.

Even if someone had survived the Wuyuan Manor's attack, the Yu family would not have reached out to save them. Moreover, the Su family was already deserted and empty now.

Hengshan had nurtured the people of Yang Family Village, and the villagers had followed the rules of the mountain forest, remaining loyal to it for many years.

"Peier is right," Xiao Shaoping said, clenching his fists. He paced the kitchen twice before running out.

However, there were still those who uncharitably pointed out Xue Tao's intentions. Everyone understood, and even Xue Dacheng stopped making a fuss.

Back when she was pregnant with him, it had only taken six months—half the time of a normal person. Now, his physical development was also at a superhuman speed. Ordinary children took five or six months to sit up, but at one month, he could already sit and articulate sounds quite clearly, though he only knew two words: "Peh" and "Che."

The doorman saw his impatient look and dared not ask anything else, only watching as the two walked into the club arm in arm.

"…Mmmph! You!" Miao Ran, breathless from the kiss, scratched He Jianguo’s shoulder hard. This man, why must he be in heat regardless of the occasion?

The grain left in the warehouse was easy enough to handle, but now that she was leaving, she feared it would be difficult for Zhang to eat meat. Thinking of this, Dai Mao decided to make more sausages and smoked meat for Zhang before she left, and perhaps a large ham—hams were good for making soup. But she would be gone for at most a month; it should be fine.

Zhong Hao patted his shoulder, raised an eyebrow, and spoke in a winding, teasing tone.

The atmosphere at the scene froze for a moment. Ji Fan endured the intense pain, took a medicinal pill from his storage space, and suppressed the surging blood in his heart.

All barriers actually shared common characteristics, and most were constructed according to the principles of the Yin-Yang Bagua. Coincidentally, the barrier they were currently in used the exact principles of the Yin-Yang Bagua.

The sky had turned completely dark, and I remained on the ground like a fool, my eyes fixed ahead. But ahead was only a pitch-black void; the banks of the river were no longer visible.

However, since she had promised the people of the Cloud Soul Tribe to save their prince and princess, Su Qinxi would not go back on her word.

"Li Nana asked me to send her greetings to your whole family!" the masked man said inexplicably upon reaching him.

Beneath the cold mask on the Old Ghost of the Hundred Herbs' face, his long, narrow, alluring eyes narrowed. He leaned sideways, propping his elbow on the man, resting his full weight upon him.

Except for the patrol vehicles occasionally passing on the street, everyone else was enjoying themselves in various entertainment venues.

The knocking at the door brought He Lan Yao back to her senses. She felt annoyed: *I am getting more childish as I age; I can even swoon over a fool.*

Li Jiayu and Guo Dayong had developed feelings while training in Baoding, but due to the war, they had never managed to get married.

I looked at the trap and shook my head slowly. Based on my understanding of wolves, they would never act so aimlessly.

A series of super-VIP figures stepped out of the cars—people whose mere footfalls could make Europe tremble.

Lei Li and Wu Yan were both wearing tight-fitting combat gear, which made them look out of place.
