Volume 1, Chapter 26: Stop Delaying the Divorce

"This... I forgot to change it, brother. I'll change it right now."

"Don't bother."

Lu Jinchuan took back his phone. Their most recent chat record had been stuck for three years.

[Ke Jin, do you know where Lu Jinchuan is?]

He scrolled up; the content was mostly similar.

Ke Jin scratched his head. "Forgot to reply, haha. Brother, do you know there’s a thing called 'mental reply'?"

Lu Jinchuan clicked on Ji Shu’s Moments, which were restricted to the last six months. The most recent post was a photo from their studio gathering. He tapped to enlarge it. Ji Shu was standing on the side wearing a beige knit sweater, and next to her, a young man was looking at her with a smile, ignoring the camera.

It was by him...

If it were anyone else, even those dwarves known as "walking rocks," they would likely have collapsed instantly after taking such a blow head-on.

"Damn it, you blind horse, you're usually sharp-witted; why the hell can't you understand this? Boss Liu is already betrothed to someone else," Lin Zhongyan had no choice but to say.

Xiao Jingchuan felt awkward, fearing that this man had already fallen in battle. Only after hearing Chang Ting’s report did he learn that the man named Li Gui had returned safely to the unit and was currently training at the barracks. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

Young Master Wang helped Wang Sen toward the hotel. After settling Wang Sen on the hotel sofa, he went to check in, only to discover that neither he nor Wang Sen had their ID cards.

The Five Elements Armor collectively suffered heavy damage and entered a self-repairing state where they could not be summoned. Zuyue unleashed Zero Force on a scale far beyond anything seen before, and the strongest Dark Beast, the Black Demon Beast, descended. Meizhen, as the commander of the armor summoners, was under immense pressure and completely overwhelmed.

After he finished speaking, Sun Peizhong, who had been listening intently, noticed the General pause and chimed in at the right moment to offer a reminder.

On this side, Commander Qian and Liu Heita’s forces were locked in a fierce, smoke-filled battle. On the other side, at the South City Gate of Laishui County, Xiao Jingchuan’s unit was marching rapidly, waiting for word from within after reaching the gate.

The demons were annihilated just like the Black Cats troupe, hacked into pieces by the surging monsters, with an even more miserable end.

But Gong Qiying hadn't expected that even monsters from Earth’s fantasy works could be recreated here.

Ling Yao’s thoughts raced as he recalled Senior Yang mentioning a desire to set him up with Li Xianzhu, and then connected that to how Li Xianzhu targeted him at every turn.

That was nearly impossible. Which noble family didn't collect taxes from their fiefdoms? How could there be any logic in paying out of one's own pocket for the territory?

Jiufang Ming smiled gently. The Profound Phoenix Dust that Yan Qitong now possessed could even rival his own Eternal Origin Dust.

Ji Zhitin felt a bit of displeasure—an indescribable emotion surging up and drowning him.

Reminded by Tang Xue’s mention of roses, Lin Manrong realized she needed to deal with them quickly.

There had been few people by the pool, but seeing the incident, everyone now stood in the nearby corridor, waiting to see the spectacle.

After boarding the plane, Bai Man took out her phone to tell Dong Tianming everything that had happened in Miaodu.

The Linjiang River was long, spanning the entire city of Nanlin. On the way, the other party called again, arranging to meet at the river beach.

Ding Hao thought that the changes in the Zhao clan had indeed brought many changes to Zhao Sheng. If it were before, he might not have cared much about the Wang family.

This suggested there were no human traffickers involved. If the child had met with an accident on the road, it would be a devastating blow.

"That's right, Brother Fan. Where is that secret passage you mentioned? Our Hidden Sect has a unique secret technique that can disguise the entrance without drawing attention, so there's no need to worry about being discovered!" Yin Xiangnian said.

The ten-thousand-foot Yama stood in the void, radiating immense light. Across the entire Ghost Wilderness, amidst the churning grey sky, ghost incantations constantly emerged. These were not emitted by Zhang Fan, but were the heaven and earth responding to the appearance of the Yama manifestation in the underworld.

Ning Zian naturally didn't miss that flash of regret, though he just smiled meaningfully at the figure of the General of the Flying Cavalry.

My eyes narrowed suddenly, locking onto the Ruzhong acupoint on his chest. The moment his fist was about to strike, I gathered all the strength remaining in my body into my fingertips and thrust forward violently.

The previously one-sided situation on the field shifted dramatically when Wu Ba revealed his trump card.

"Right, he has sandbags strapped to him; that counts as a foul, right? That’s a prohibited item! Cancel his ranking, disqualify him from the competition—he’s out!" Yuan Kaiyu argued desperately.

Wu Yong must have taken bribes from Diao Zi'ang and his people; he was determined to find the culprit, which was quite annoying. But as for him wanting to take my brothers to check fingerprints, he wouldn't find anything, which I wasn't worried about, because those fingerprints were Liang Hongyun’s.

The knowledge of cultivation techniques, alchemy, and weapon refining in his memory flashed before him like fragments.

This assistant looked unremarkable, but he was actually a former special forces soldier. Though not a martial artist, his combat effectiveness was astonishing.

I had no time to think. Without looking, I threw a heavy punch in the direction I sensed behind me.

After acting as a grandmother for a few days, I discovered that this grand-disciple of mine had actually turned into a grown boy.

"People will be coming to the house shortly. It’s not convenient for you to meet her. Go hide in the bedroom," Tan Cheng said concisely, without further explanation.

The conversation between Li Xue and Wang Mi had fallen into her ears; to say she felt no ripples in her heart would be a lie.

These words instantly drew praise from both nurses. After a few more pleasantries, Yang Ye hurried toward the stairwell, his face unable to hide his smile.

The "enjoyment" of this visual and sensory experience was truly something else, not to mention eating a meal while looking at this noble face.

After watching, the CCTV Finance reporter asked, "Even with such a huge blunder, if it were me, I wouldn't have come out to clarify. After all, you’re backed by the aura of the richest man; surely that must be helpful for your development. Why did you do this?"

Moreover, to be realistic, even if an ordinary person were suffering from the symptoms of the Five Decays of Heaven, given current medical treatments and the unrefined body of a commoner, they wouldn't have lasted until now.

Driving through the jungle, hunger made me dizzy. I didn't know if it was because of that, but I felt this time was even more difficult than the last time I searched for the path.
