Chapter 25

"What is going on? Why are they taking Wu Zhan away?" Wang Fang rushed back in a hurry; she hadn't been home and only heard about it from others on the way.

Mo Tu felt immense rage, yet he did not show it. He raised a hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and continued to condense his vital essence for Chu Xun. This was his purpose in coming here today; he was aware of the issues between the two sides and knew such a conflict was highly likely, so he had come to mediate.

Ding Rui was her cousin's name; borrowing it now shouldn't be a crime, and at the very least, it might help her evade the debt collectors.

There is a historical allusion often attributed to a discussion between Lu Su and Lü Meng, where Lu Su remarked that Lü Meng was no longer the simple soldier of Wu, to which Lü Meng replied that after three days of separation, one must view a scholar with fresh eyes—though we shall not delve further into that here.

"This mirror is called Kongming; it possesses the power to strip away the false and reveal the true. It can distinguish between reality and illusion, and it is truly extraordinary." As Ming Tuozi said this, he seemed to hesitate, leaving his words unfinished.

Following their setbacks last year, Bigbang's overall popularity had suffered a heavy blow due to Director Cui, but it had not been fundamentally damaged and had been gradually recovering over the past year.

Meanwhile, Chu Xun's body instantly expanded into a giant thirty-seven feet tall, black light swirling around him and divine radiance steaming from his form.

"Why shouldn't I be here? Were you summoned by them too?" Fang Yan put away his phone and smiled wordlessly.

The largest silver lump she had seen in her life was a five-tael ingot, which was part of the property she and her father received when they were driven out of their ancestral home in Yunnan by her uncle.

Yang Fan still had to go back with Yan Mengru that night to treat her mother, and Yan Mengru was thinking of having Yang Fan return the check in person that evening.

Although she only half-understood Xiao Shuihan's words, she could tell from the expressions on the faces of Cheng Yixiao and the others just how impressive their boss's remarks were.

Every night, Nian Lun would carefully wash the clothes given to her by Jin Yan and then press them using the base of an electric kettle; she was quite fastidious.

If someone had jumped out to confront President Zhou directly just then, they would have missed out on this easy opportunity to make money.

Lu Wuji did not consider himself a coward, but when he looked into the eyes of this robber, he could not help but feel a tremor of fear.

Qin Wentian was about to emerge from seclusion, which meant he was highly likely to take that final step. Especially with the current turmoil, the entire Heavenly Cave could feel it; the laws of nature stagnating in the void and the steadily rising aura of will were all telling them that Qin Wentian was charging toward that legendary realm.

She had already decided that since the Ning family and Shen Tianlang were determined to interfere in her marriage to Jun Qingchen, she might as well let them know the process of the matter, as well as everything she had encountered along the way.

Li Tianyi covered his eyes tightly, but beneath his palms, his eyes remained wide open, unable to close due to extreme shock.

Ye Ling and Niu Qing remained in the lower realm with Nangong Yu to lay out their plans, intending to enter the upper realm when the time was right.

Outside the main gate of the Sun residence, in a car not far away, Wu Dedao watched their departing figures, gnashing his teeth in hatred.

As for myth-grade items, Mu Lingfeng didn't even dare to think about it. Aside from the fact that it was like finding a needle in a haystack, he was only level 5. He remembered that Kil'jaeden's projection only possessed one-hundred-millionth of the original's strength, so he decided to leave it to fate.

Although Feng Jun appeared lean, the aura of rugged toughness emanating from his entire being could not be hidden at all.

"The item is quite good, but the materials might not be easy to acquire. I'll think of a way," Qimeng said helplessly.

There was still dried blood on Ye Yiyao's delicate face, which, paired with her wicked smile and wandering gaze, made one's heart tremble.

"Glug, glug, hah! That's so spicy, Mengmeng! Did Brother Mu say he would give me a gift?" Rumeng asked curiously, taking a large gulp of the fruit juice Yumeng had prepared.

When Young Master Qin arrived home, his mother, Bo Dong'ai, had already finished cooking lunch and was waiting for him to come home to eat.

Although they knew this path was extremely difficult, seeing that Zong Fang had already spoken, and knowing that every second counted, the others said no more. After a quick cleanup, they started running forward.

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of Die Fei, but she immediately returned to her usual expression and looked up at the other three.

Song Ximo bit her lip, suddenly kissed Ye Yiyao lightly on the cheek, and ran off, leaving only one sentence behind.

Ai Ye tucked her long hair behind her ear and smiled, "Do you remember that gathering back in the Martial Law Realm?" At this, Ai Ye's face flushed slightly.

This matter was handled by Lin Yong, who had entrusted it to others. Three days after the payment was made, the main gate of the Lin mansion was knocked upon.

"Mom, I'll be honest with you. Zhao Heng and I were just acting earlier, just to drive Qi Bin away!" Jiang Anxin explained.

Yet, Jun Zilin didn't even look; catching a glimpse of something being sent toward her from the corner of her eye, she immediately slapped it away with a "snap."

Leopard Print Mad secretly flattered Hong Jinde, casting his gaze toward him, hoping to see a hint of appreciation on his face. But to his disappointment, Hong Jinde's face remained icy, revealing nothing.

Furthermore, she wanted to see exactly how the Fu family would deal with Fu Lingcui, because the person she was meeting was Zhang Ruiyuan. That scumbag was still her own fiancé, after all.

Looking at the boundless forest before them, the Tiger and the soul looked on with curiosity. Was this the Ten Thousand Beast Tomb? It didn't look any different from an ordinary forest.

This heart-stopping moment nearly caused Du Tianling's heart to stop beating; the Maserati had been riddled with holes, looking as if it were about to fall apart.

The temperature on her face gradually rose. Lin Qianxue merely blinked, and Mu Tingxiao's lips were already pressed against hers.

"The person has been saved, so can you disappear now?" Guan Lingyu wanted more; it was truly headache-inducing.

Along the way, everyone was chattering, except for Yun Simi. If the scene here hadn't been so lively and distracting, they surely would have noticed.

It felt like the blink of an eye, or perhaps an instant; I first had a sensation of my soul leaving my body, and then, something that should be called a divine sense was transmitted into my mind.

Shi Xuanyu interrupted Shangguan Jin, saying that although Shangguan Jin’s troop deployment had been discussed with him, the defenses were already perfect. It was just waiting for the blades to be drawn; asking like this was merely a hope that he might speak up to stop him.

Gao Shiman tried hard to recall the clips from that episode of Journey to the West, striving to connect the beginning and the end. Since people didn't have much entertainment these days, such a story would surely attract and move them. Thinking this, she didn't reach for the food in Li Ling's hands, and Li Ling simply stopped peeling them as well.
