Chapter 23

He Yong recalled that on the plane, this lecherous creature had not only planned to toy with two flight attendants but had even attempted to violate him.

Xu Yin had already walked downstairs with Qi Wanguan, but she ultimately could not bear to leave a bird trapped upside down in a basin inside the room. She persuaded her best friend to turn back, hoping to rescue the myna.

The moment the child entered the venue, two phantoms emerged from the stone tablets within.

Watching the white whale tumbling endlessly in the sky, accompanied by bolt after bolt of lightning that made one’s scalp tingle, everyone was struck by the realization that they could never stand against such a force.

"So, what method will he use to deal with that deadbeat who refuses to pay back his debts?" Han Xiang asked.

They all loved that Sun Wukong who wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, that peerless Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

A wave of irrepressible surprise and ecstasy surged in his heart, and Song Shiqiu hurriedly cast his gaze downward... but it was not Cheng Ran in that spot.

You Hai, who had finally finished arranging and communicating several matters while on the phone, looked up only to see his agent standing to the side, watching him with a dark expression.

"So, Bai Chen, you think I couldn't lift this Stone Guardianship without your help?" Li Yun said with a smile, carefully examining the tablet.

He lay back on the bed, though sleep eluded him. He turned on his side, gazing at the glittering starry sky outside the window, lost in a daze.

Xu Yunyan came to the West Campus cafeteria to eat with Yan Le as usual. Starting this week, she came not only for dinner but also for lunch, because something had forced her to bow her head and apologize to Yan Le.

The triumvirate and the golden giant python returned to the Heavenly Gate. They could have chosen to flee, but they could not afford to do so. The Heavenly Gate was the political heart of the Heng Kingdom; if they could not even protect this place, word would spread, and neither the triumvirate nor the golden giant python would ever be able to hold their heads high before other nations again.

Yan Le had long since discerned the cultivation levels of Xiao Guang and Lu Yi, but he valued their supernatural abilities. Today, Yan Le intended to absorb their lightning and sensory powers; he was particularly determined to acquire Xiao Guang's electrical abilities, while he cared little for their martial arts or Lu Yi’s "sensory thief" talent.

"You brat—say that again!" the moment the three of them entered the kitchen, they heard a furious, low roar.

It was easy to say, but how could it be so easily executed? Fortunately, the road ahead was flat and unobstructed, but the front of the vehicle was so heavy that it felt like it might tip forward.

Mai Zi bought a bag of pigeon feed and scattered it on the ground. Several pigeons flew over, pecking at the food as if no one were around.

But Bai Wuchang followed close behind. She spun three hundred and sixty degrees, her long, beautiful legs whipping out like a vine, only to stop abruptly in front of Bai Xue.

It was at that time that the girl named Ye Yixia appeared beside this cold-hearted man.

Zhao Xiaochen still found it hard to accept that everything behind this had such intricate connections, and that such deep darkness was surging beneath this veneer of light.

"No, I’m not thinking of anything," Julie quickly shook her head. She had already been frightened to tears. Besides, Julie had never wanted to do this in the first place.

"I wanted to go back to the city to get help, but you were asleep, and I was afraid you’d get caught in the rain if you followed me," Lin Mubai offered an excuse, his eyelids too heavy with fatigue to stay open.

Her entire focus was on worrying about Cao Ruoxi’s condition, so she failed to notice the gaze of the man beside her.

Those who work in property management are most skilled at idle chatter; once they start, it seems they never end.

He seemed to sense her embarrassment, turning his head slowly to press his warm lips against her cheek, only then straightening up and letting her go.

The sound of a sharp blade piercing skin cut through the air, and suddenly, the scent of blood grew heavier.

Why did she feel that Cao Yimo had changed so much? There was truly no longer any of the previous ostentation or sharp edge in Cao Yimo's eyes, and her demeanor when facing Fu Ye was far too indifferent. The old Cao Yimo had loved Fu Ye deeply; could a car accident really have changed her personality?

Xi Ran tried her best to keep her expression calm, but the furrow in her brow betrayed her—she was very uneasy.

"What exactly is going on with this child?" Murong Xu tried to steady his breath, looking at the panicked old physician before him.

Ling Luoqi hadn't looked closely before, but now she saw that Huangfu Yanpu’s appearance had indeed changed significantly. However, it had completely subverted his previous looks; if his previous appearance was a 100, then now it was a thousand—no, ten thousand.

Who among those present didn't have some level of skill? If they really thought this was just a simple accident, that would be the truly strange thing.

He looked toward the spot where Yuan Kun had been standing earlier, but Yuan Kun had suddenly vanished. Li Longji pondered in silence, then let out a sigh.

Within Fugui Villa, the intense battle continued. In order to draw Hu Biao’s attention and forces, the Young King took the field himself, leading his men in a sustained, fierce assault on the south gate of the villa. Hu Biao naturally could not show weakness and quickly arrived at the front lines to command, blocking the Young King’s onslaught with all his might.

Leng Yue looked at that incredibly ugly face and began to regret it; she was just looking for trouble for herself. Although she was the one who drew on his face, he couldn't see it, so it had no impact on him at all.
