Su Ruoxi was just about to click recall on her message when Lin Yu's reply came through.

"Miss Su, thank you for your concern. Miss Xu and I are already engaged. As for when we might meet, I'm not entirely sure of the exact date, but it should be very soon!"

Upon seeing Su Ruoxi's message, Lin Yu was somewhat surprised. Was Su Ruoxi concerned about him? Did she want to...

Thirdly, help him kill someone born in the Year of Wuchen, the Month of Dingsi, the Day of Jisi, at the Hour of Wu, whose surname is Zhang.

Over ten minutes later, we rendezvoused with the Ye sisters. Accompanying them was a middle-aged man with dark skin and a torn straw hat, carrying iron tongs and a snakeskin sack—looking every bit the professional snake hunter at first glance.

Yingjin held up two fingers, staring at them in thought. Ye Mengyan would be away on a business trip for two days, during which she would go stay at Cloud Villa for two days. As for Ye Mengyan and the elder Mr. Ye, their negotiated compromise was for her to only go stay there two days a week.

Once that erupted, no one could predict what Gao Ruoxue might do to defy the Gao family and stay with Jiang Chen.

He had been counting on Horn coming along to share the load, so how had the pressure ended up back on him entirely?

Upon seeing Xie Jinglei's heavily made-up and hostile face, Shen Luofei's expression darkened completely.

Muen unlocked the third sealed divine power, gathering all his divine might into a rushing river that continuously poured forth onto the divine fire.

He detested greasy meat; Mommy must have picked those pieces for him according to Ruibao's preferences.

In truth, the main issue was that he had zero understanding of the empire's political landscape. Out of these dozen or so viscounts, he didn't recognize a single one.

Ruiran darted around vigilantly. Just a moment ago, he had thought Daddy was showing some improvement, but now Daddy was actually going to discipline him. He had made plenty of mistakes in the past, but Mommy had never once had the heart to hit him.

"Can we dispatch someone else to accept the challenge besides Alliance Leader Qiu? My Wuchang Sect fears we are stretched too thin and can no longer spare any disciples to face the various abbots of Shaolin!" said Venerable Xuanzhen.

"Speak no nonsense! Rumor has it that Master is coming to attend the Martial Arts Tournament; once we find him, we will return. He is the backbone of the Kunlun Sect!" That voice that had tried to dissuade him earlier rang out once more, sounding only slightly desolate.

Neither the east, south, nor west sides showed any anomalies, and he had assumed the remaining northern side would be fine as well. Yet the moment he set foot in the north, he genuinely discovered a problem.

Why should I bother overthinking it? What I find regrettable is that, just as Li Lili said, my feelings for him are only a tiny fraction better than nothing at all.

This was getting interesting. Two grandmasters had successfully refined mid-grade immortal pills, and since the quality of the pills was identical, the outcome would depend on their efficacy. To put it bluntly, it came down to which of the two merchant guilds had more wealth and greater influence! Because only through that could they acquire superior medicinal recipes.

Guan Jian chuckled gleefully. Back home, as soon as I finished bathing, he locked the door and pounced on me like a wolf. We tossed and turned fiercely, wearing each other out completely and enjoying ourselves to the fullest.

After settling the brooding speckled hen, we finally had breakfast—a couple of tea eggs and a few rice dumplings, which was basically enough to fill us up. The rice dumplings sent over by Bai Jingjing were quite nice; wrapped externally in reed leaves, they carried a unique, refreshing fragrance. I hadn't tasted this flavor in years.

Everyone was shocked. No one could have anticipated that Pei Yu would actually take action! Throughout the past, his image in people's minds had been one of absolute calm, someone whose judgment could never be swayed by mere emotion. If it were the usual Pei Yu, he would never have done such a thing.

Hearing this, Wang Kun immediately organized the relevant information from his memory, separated a wisp of soul power, and drove it into Xin Wuchen's sea of consciousness.

For these people to show up at this time clearly meant they had encountered the traitor from Linshan earlier, after which Qin Song's identity had been exposed.

Initially, all the explorers were profit-seekers. They rushed to the entrance of Myriad Thunder Valley without a second thought, striding straight inside without waiting. Pitiful and lamentable—under the terrifying might of ten thousand bolts of lightning, the vanguard suffered catastrophic casualties, with fewer than two or three out of ten managing to escape.
