Despite his efforts to focus on the enticing breakfast before him, he could not help but recall last night’s events, which left him restless and uneasy.

“Sister, are you coming with me to Old Master Xu’s birthday banquet today?” Lin Yu took a deep breath and tried to shift his attention.

Lin Shiyun shook her head in reply...

Mo Qingning was about to go upstairs to look for Yan Xinxin when he happened to see her descending. She wore a coarse linen robe, cinched at the waist with a black sash; the hem was tucked in, the sleeves rolled up, exposing strong, toned arms. Her appearance was striking and efficient, yet her features were unfortunately lacking.

A flash of steel, and Zhou Xinglong’s head fell; his corpse collapsed, blood spurting forth, the scene awash in gore.

Amidst the nationwide uproar over Zuo Wei’s disappearance, he had already become a radiant presence in Korea.

“Who would have thought that Donald actually had some reserves left!” Luo Yuan murmured from the shadows, turning the black pistol in his hand.

At that moment, Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu, who were in command of the Eight-Gate Golden Lock Formation, immediately began directing the imperial guards in a ruthless assault against the rebel forces invading the array.

A towering crimson figure charged forth, like thunder, hurtling toward the sword formation formed by sixteen bronze warriors.

In just three breaths, twelve marshals perished, their scorched bodies plummeting into the Jing River, where piranhas surged up and devoured them, leaving behind twelve skeletons sinking to the riverbed.

As soon as Cao Cao finished his words, the soldiers of the Cao army, led by three generals, rushed to attack Wang Jie’s central encampment.

In the next instant, Liu Yu realized that Bai’s flying needle was not aimed at Naruto, but rather blocked Zabuza’s shuriken for him.

“Tsk, does a puppet wish to meddle in its master’s private affairs?” Mercury Lamp raised her head haughtily, her presence always a bane to Yeye, no matter the time or circumstance.

Thinking about it, it seemed she had no particular reason to go out, and what he said sounded reasonable enough.

“Pretend, my foot! This is my rental car. Get in. Or, call your mother and tell her not to cook—I’ll take you both out to eat.” Ye Tianyu had made up his mind. Today he would teach Fang Jiaxue an unforgettable lesson for daring to torment him day after day.

Perhaps he had someone to entertain? Du Fuqu pursed her lips, pondering for a while before obediently following the bridal attendant. Xiao Jingtang blended into the wedding feast, calmly drinking with the others.

On this floor, most of those working were key personnel assisting the director. There were also several conference rooms here. Today, since Ye Tianyu had summoned everyone, the meeting would naturally be held on this floor.

“Leng Yue...” Jin Liunian’s gaze was shadowed, his hands clenched at his sides. He stepped forward and called softly, but she gave no response.

For the entire family stood on the brink of destruction at any moment. She knew little about the Xu family’s situation, but according to her father, the Xu family had committed a grave error and was doomed.

Everyone said the union between the Xiao and Du families was merely in name, destined to dissolve sooner or later. Yet, watching Xiao Jingtang, he seemed rather concerned for the Du clan—even when she landed in prison for attempted murder, he still cared enough to ask after her.

“I want to know—besides the chief and you, does anyone else in the capital know about my identity with the Bureau of Investigation?” Ye Tianyu asked.

With this thought, Zhang Ye felt much more at ease; apparently, while his strength surpassed Minato Namikaze’s, his state of mind was far more fragile.

A silver, curved dagger pressed directly against Lin Fei’s neck, a chilling murderous aura filling the room.

He then adjusted his thoughts, and his consciousness entered his mindscape once again, initiating the second summoning.
