Chapter 61: Borrowing a Seed

"There is definitely something fishy going on between those two. The child is undoubtedly Jiang Bei's; Director Fang, there is no doubt about it."

She Yuqi had just taken a sip of porridge when she felt a sudden wave of nausea and began to retch. As soon as Jiang Bei walked into the room and saw her in this state, he frowned and instinctively reached out to pat her gently on the back.

As it happened, this exact scene was caught by Fang Lan. Her eyes widened, and she shouted angrily, "In broad daylight, how dare you two engage in such shameless behavior! Someone come and grab these two!"

Immediately, a few people rushed forward, attempting to seize Jiang Bei and She Yuqi. But the shrewish woman surnamed Wang slammed her chopsticks down with a swift "whoosh" and stood in front of them, blocking their path.

"Director Fang..."

Lin Xi lowered her hands once she came to her senses, feeling somewhat annoyed upon seeing Yi An, the culprit behind it all, wearing a half-smiling expression.

Wu Zhenzhen watched Xu Jian close the door and cursed under her breath, "Disobedient dog." Disobedient though he might be, he had indeed proven quite reliable over the years.

A dead person certainly would not have facial features to read. The fact that the Sixth Brother currently had a readable face meant that he was undoubtedly still alive.

Tuanzi glanced sideways at their silent leader and thought to himself: hesitating and dithering like this is completely unlike the boss's usual style.

The soul servant finished speaking and immediately moved toward the tree. Just as it was about to reach the trunk, an unexpected transformation suddenly overtook the tree in the very next second.

"So, you agree to return to the United States with me?" He squatted down in front of her, holding her hand and asking with eager anticipation.

Their trip to the underground black market this time had been immensely fruitful. Most importantly, they had managed to secure the living alien specimen that Professor Sly Fox had been longing for day and night. Furthermore, that chain of his looked like quite a remarkable treasure as well.

Yan Lingyu ate while examining the mechanical parts scattered on the ground. Although he had diagrams to assist him, they were not very detailed, and certain sections required him to ponder for a while before he could comprehend them.

Nominally, Lin Xi was Yun Yang's personal bodyguard, and she possessed formidable martial arts skills. Therefore, although many of Yun Yang's fans felt deeply resentful, virtually no one dared to openly oppose her proposal. Consequently, the healthy and orderly atmosphere seen today had formed.

"Stop talking, I know what you want to say." Before I could finish my sentence, Xiong Ruixue interrupted me preemptively.

"Form a team?" Fang Ming was momentarily stunned, then nodded and said, "That is indeed a good method!" If he had a team with him on this trip to that place, he would not have found himself in such a wretched state.

The officers and men of the three armies crossed the river by night with gags in their mouths to prevent horses from neighing. Once they reached the opposite bank of the Yellow River, they immediately set up camp to prevent the rebel Qiang tribes from launching a half-crossing attack while the main army was in the middle of crossing.

"Of course, you can choose to submit to me!" Qin Tianqi said sternly, a thick murderous intent erupting from his body.

The two of them walked out together into the utterly quiet street. There were no streetlights, and it was pitch black. Fortunately, both of them were practitioners of martial arts, so the darkness posed little obstacle.

"Your Highness, save me!" Hua Ruomei felt a sliver of fear in her heart. Everything she possessed had been given to her by this man—she enjoyed a life of immense wealth, glory, and luxury. Could this truly be a rule of the Prince's Manor? Why had His Highness never mentioned this to her before?

Wu Xie gritted his teeth so hard he felt as though the keys in his hand might shatter, but seeing the driver looking back at him, he could only resign himself with a silent groan: Fine, who cares if this is his own old man... The old man had worked hard his entire life, so acting arrogant and badass for once was only fitting. He could always just make another key later.

However, such high-intensity combat could certainly not last much longer. For the water tree could clearly see that as Li unlocked higher stages of the Eight Gates, Ziluoya was gradually being forced onto the defensive.

Water Tree's aura surged, and the mobilized chakra caused her body to be wreathed in crackling lightning while the ground beneath her feet shattered. She had entered a state of explosive fury.

Qin Tianqi's face was wreathed in smiles as he tried to make himself look more cheerful. Although he personally disliked socializing, it was sometimes an unavoidable necessity.

With an exceptionally arrogant swagger, Qin Tianqi walked out of the classroom, prompting Nalan Chu to frown slightly as she followed closely behind him.

Upon hearing that the commotion came from the direction of Yao Palace, my heart instantly leaped into my throat. I grabbed the sword spirit's hand and sprinted toward Yao Palace.

After returning home, Lifan and I carefully pieced together everything that had happened today, but neither of us could distinguish which scenes were real and which were fake. Yet I clearly remembered entering the temple, and I could still vividly recall the old monk's appearance.

She certainly did not believe her mother was showing concern for her; otherwise, how could she fail to notice the glaring, distinct handprint on her face?

Unfortunately, his acupoints had been sealed by Ye Lishang's silver needles. Combined with the "harsh medicine" administered by Shopkeeper Xu, he was currently as weak as a child and unable to muster even an ounce of strength.

He reflected on how he had submitted to authority his entire life, wondering when he would ever get the chance to trample those high-and-mighty figures beneath his feet. At this thought, the fire in Chuan Chuan's eyes instantly calmed the inner struggle raging within him.

Wenwen was startled by my appearance, so she quickly helped me take off my clothes, dragged me into the bathroom, and turned on the hot water to rinse my body.

The elevator interior was cramped, and terrified that it might plunge downward, I didn't dare to move a muscle, which instead played right into his hands.

She stared slyly at Mu Zhijun, gently stroking the back of his hand over and over until the hair on the back of his neck stood up from a chilling breeze.

Visually, because dusk had already fallen, the Black brothers charging down the hill appeared solitary and few in number, whereas the galloping cavalry charge sweeping across like a roaring sea of horses looked much more like a violent, surging flood and ferocious beasts, inspiring awe and dread.

Such internal contradiction caused him to press his lips even tighter together, even while enduring a degree of pain that was no less than anyone else's at that very moment.

This only left Yin Yin even more bewildered. In an instant, the three fundamental philosophical questions flashed through her mind: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? Fortunately, An Ming's appearance rescued them from their plight.

As it happened, Princess Qionghua had suffered a massive upheaval and undergone a drastic change in temperament, becoming deeply paranoid and constantly terrified that someone was plotting to harm her.

Remote towns and cities of little value were completely abandoned, and all human inhabitants across Taiwan were re-registered and uniformly relocated to larger cities with convenient transportation and secure surrounding environments to facilitate easier management.
