Chapter 162: Life and Death

As soon as the doctor's voice fell, Xu Liwen felt as if his heart had been struck heavily by a sledgehammer, aching so intensely that he could not breathe. He staggered back a few steps and barely managed to steady himself by leaning against the wall.

Indeed, his wife's illness had dragged on for all these years, relying entirely on medication to sustain her life. The doctor had told him before that continuing to rely solely on drugs like this was ultimately no long-term solution.

Just like this...

Shen Feng paid no attention to Fu Siyue's expression; right now, he cared only about when both sides would cease fire and ensure his own safety.

"Hehe, I have weapons, and I have information as well. As long as Young Master Yi is willing to lend me your cultivation technique manual to have a look, I'll give you a ten-percent discount. What do you think?" said the fat man Feng Xiang with a chuckle.

Xia Changqing had certainly not forgotten about that matter. That was his mount; riding it was one thing, but if the dual-pupil eldest sister wanted to monopolize it, that was completely out of the question.

"Once the contract is signed, it takes effect immediately, and no backtracking is allowed," Leng Wushuang said once again. A contract had already materialized before Yao Qi.

Liu Ranran was in a bad mood today, drinking in solitude, when she suddenly heard a deeply magnetic male voice ring out.

If they were to play by conventional rules, they would inevitably end up being suppressed, and that was certainly not the outcome Shen Nanfeng desired.

As people of Hundred Refinements City who had watched the entire process unfold, they remained trapped in a suffocating silence, too terrified to even draw a full breath.

A city with enormous development potential is bound to be bustling at all times, reflecting the myriad facets of mortal life.

Tsunade was currently sitting across from Kato Dan, feeling somewhat puzzled as to why her younger brother Nawaki and her boyfriend Kato Dan were getting along so harmoniously today.

The conversation hit a dead end. When Kato Dan asked this question, Tsunade stubbornly refused to open her mouth to answer, simply fixing her clear, watery eyes on Kato Dan's starry gaze.

He Jing thought to herself that people do grow, and she could now barely be considered to possess the demeanor of the true daughter of a wealthy family as described in the original work.

Anyway, since Chen Yi's family and Lin Wanqiu had fallen out to such an extent that reconciliation was already impossible, her adding fuel to the fire wouldn't make much difference.

Having worked under Shen Taigui for so many years without ever needing to think for himself, he now found himself utterly at a loss on what to do when disaster was about to strike his own household.

Shi Jian and Lei Gang exchanged glances, then looked up at the vortex of spiritual energy in the sky, as well as the overwhelming fortune continuously pouring down into it.

Ye Lingwen's expression softened as she said gently, "Ah! A great many of those records must have been lost! My father and I have perused what remains countless times! Even if there were any faint traces, I have investigated them thoroughly over the years, but to no avail."

Pressing her forehead against her grandson's cheek, Xu Anrong swallowed the words "She is not your mother," lacking the courage to let them pass her lips.

Over these past few days, in order to make He Jing realize that they could make a good cooking duo, he had indeed been excessively attentive.

In the end, he even blasted apart Ying Rusong's secret realm on the spot, intending to let the Moon Wheel Immortal be buried alongside it in the void.

The number of people inside had now dwindled to fewer than a hundred. There had previously been thoughts of relocating all the villagers out of there and returning the cultivated land to forests.

Ji Feng could not help but sigh softly. It seemed he had been overthinking things; how could anything like immortal arts possibly exist in this world?

"Do you need to customize the diamond's attributes?" The proctor looked up, his attitude clearly showing he was just asking routinely according to procedural steps.

As soon as Jinkong finished speaking, everyone's gazes simultaneously turned toward Nie Fenghua. Who else could he possibly be talking about if not her?

Huajiao, one of the Seven Sons of New Oriental, suddenly brightened up. A fiery red leather coat accentuated her sexy figure, making her look just like a red chili pepper that stirred a feverish heat in people's hearts.

Once caught in his schemes, Xu Changong would use every kind of lie to conceal his machinations, leaving one trapped in a perpetual cycle of calculation. Therefore, one had to be cautious to the utmost degree.
