Volume 1, Chapter 47: Sister, Hiding?

However, what he feared was not ghosts, but people. He worried that Lu Lei's affair would implicate him, that people around him would point fingers at him behind his back, and that he would ultimately end up like his father, deprived of the respect of others.

After eating and drinking his fill, Gu Yunxi gathered the tableware and garbage, handing them over to Zuo Yi to store away in his spatial ring.

Although, from a unilateral perspective, the wishing spring water could not compare to the holy spring water, when placed in the Blue Star world, it was undoubtedly a genuine treasure.

This was a place protected by the power of the Creator; even Li Hao did not have absolute certainty of finding it. And even if he could find it, it was not something that could be accomplished in a short span of time.

"Thank you, Lord Wu'an!" Li Si said as he stood up from the ground and departed along with Yin Wei. Yin Zhong also followed alongside them as they left.

With the situation turning unfavorable, someone proposed a sound suggestion, and although everyone naturally and consciously moved to execute this general policy.

The Beast King's Soul possessed immense utility for its holder; equipped with it, even those who had never previously dealt with beast tamers could easily issue commands.

A Korean military officer spoke, "Sir, it is right inside. Please follow me." The man surnamed Wang, casting a bewildered glance at the large "fish tank" inside, followed the Korean military officer inward until they reached the vicinity of the "fish tank."

On the seventy-fourth day of the experiment, the subject's genes returned to normal once again, and the X-substance on their body completely vanished. The experiment was declared a failure.

With a couple of resounding slaps, Bai Feng was sent flying by the thunder-wielding brother and sister, Lei Wu and Lei Wu. Regardless of whether it was Lei Wu or Lei Wu that Bai Feng had addressed incorrectly, he had offended both of them, and being sent flying was nothing less than asking for it.

"Yuan Bao, where are you? I'm coming to pick you up!" The moment Bai Zhou heard Ning Yuan's voice, his heart finally settled back into place.

He finally understood why Aimee in Shanghai had been so emaciated and covered in scars. What could be seen were merely the scars on her exterior, while the wounds inflicted upon her heart stemmed precisely from these people—those who brought their self-righteous standards of value and measurement, judging her, making all sorts of demands of her, and even hurling baseless accusations.

After taking the ink pill, Qin Mo's appetite underwent a drastic change; he could endure starvation when there was nothing to eat, but he would never stop once he started, consuming enough in a single meal to last a week.

Tang Xin had already drifted into a deep sleep, her clear and luminous eyes closed, her eyelashes long and curled, as if she were having a wonderful dream. The corners of her pink, tender lips curved up slightly, and her charming, naive dimples flickered faintly into view.

At this very moment, a squad of people lay prone in the brush not far from the laboratory. They were elite special forces soldiers from the Eagle Nation, who had come here specifically for this laboratory.

Inside the classroom, everyone was discussing the matter. Kateris placed his briefcase beside the podium, then returned to his seat. In an instant, he became the new center of attention.

Ye Xinyan was somewhat worried, seeming to have some understanding of his mother. Remembering the time she was eavesdropped on previously, she still felt a lingering sense of fear.

Su Zhiyuan understood their concerns and thoughts; if he were to eat fine food while his own husband and children went hungry, his conscience would not rest easy either.

Immortal He signaled the man in white with her eyes, and the man rushed forward to snatch the staff. Before he could even get close to Banhai, Ruyi kicked him flying with a single blow.

Ten minutes later, Anna returned to the spot driving an off-road vehicle. She had hijacked it from a passerby—a fat-faced, pot-bellied fellow who clearly didn't look like a good person. Even if he were a good person, it was none of her concern.

Yet, she unexpectedly waited for him at the agreed-upon location. It seemed this trip was truly unavoidable.

Ever since Huang Bangkui could remember, that place had been strictly forbidden. Even after becoming the head of the family, he had not set foot inside more than a few times, and all he ever saw were ancestral memorial tablets.

A wave of blackness washed over her vision, blurring everything before her eyes until it became indistinct. This was the weakest Z凝 had ever been in her memory; not even during that battle with Yue Sha years ago had she felt such profound weakness, and the sensation of impending unconsciousness was utterly impossible to suppress.

However, Helena's technique was exceptional; while the flesh and blood inside the corpse were mangled, the fur on the exterior remained immaculate.

Consort Liu groped to cup Yao Qingmu's face, carefully tracing the contours of her features with her fingertips, inch by inch.

Although Murong Yinzhu held the position of Empress, the existence of a Noble Consort like Su Wanru who managed the six palaces, coupled with the cold indifference of Yin Luoxuan, meant that even when people from the Qianfeng Kingdom arrived, no advance arrangements had been made for Murong Yinzhu to welcome them in person.

Murong Che felt that Yun Duoduo was not entirely a lost cause; it seemed that with proper discipline and cultivation, she could still turn out to be a fine wife.

Yet, she was truly not pure enough. She was fundamentally unworthy of a prince as brilliant as a diamond and as transparent as crystal. Her unmentionable past, her bloody marriage, and the wicked scheme she was currently executing—none of these made her fit.

As for going to offer congratulations to the Crown Prince? Forget it. Even if she wanted to go, they wouldn't be pleased to have her, seeing as her family was currently in mourning.

The coffin was carried all the way to the gates of the Yun residence. When an old man saw this, he thought the Prince of Wu had lost his mind—how could a dead person possibly be carried back into their own home?

After helping his grandfather sit down comfortably, Zhou Zeyuan hurriedly fetched the ginseng box he had prepared, placed it on the bed, and opened it.

Liang Fei looked curiously at Yao Jingjing, observing her slightly knitted brows and her deeply preoccupied expression.

Because previously, when Qin Li had told Li Xuan'er that the two of them were cousins, Li Xuan'er's reaction could only be described as fiercely stubborn.

The condensed magic made this Shield of Light, gathered through Arch-Mage magic, incomparably dense, and Arch-Mage spells were inherently specialized in defense, possessing protective power far superior to elemental-type spells.

Upon stepping out of the laboratory, he discovered that his mother and Ling Yaya were actually waiting for him outside. His mother's expression was less than pleasant, whereas his wife appeared quite happy.

Naturally, they would not be swayed by external rumors; anyone with discerning eyes could see that Prince Chen had his own reasons for not suppressing the rumors—perhaps they were a deliberate smokescreen released on purpose, all to sweep away all potential threats in one fell swoop before his younger brother ascended to power.

To put it bluntly, Yang Ling's style differed vastly from those bickering ministers, and under the current circumstances, he had successfully scored massive approval ratings.

"This is the old woman's strategy. The whip in Miss Lu's hand was originally crafted by the old woman; does it suit your hand well?" Shi Hui probed cautiously.

Ah Kai now had his career, and Huo Shuhua had previously discussed the matter with Zhou Zeyuan, knowing that her son had no desire to manage an entertainment company, which was how this idea came about.

He believed that as long as the child's deafness problem was resolved, the employment issue would naturally fall into place.

"No wonder! After all, they are now proper relatives by marriage; naturally they are closer to us than others!" Elder Fang also chuckled sinisterly.
