This man clearly looked like a ravenous wolf, yet now he was pretending to be aloof. But she had no way to escape anymore. Whether she believed it or not, she had to accept it—she was truly exhausted.

When Wenren Hen and his group left, dawn was just breaking. Xiaosa Shang, the ruthless Chai Tongzhi, and their loyal followers escorted them beyond the city walls. At parting, Liu Mingyue clung to Xiaosa, sobbing uncontrollably. Xiaosa comforted her with abundant delicacies and various promises to visit often, finally calming her down.

Meanwhile, Princess Xianji donned black clothes and a mask, personally leading her men to Wangjiatun in Taiyuan. Before reaching Wangjiatun, they were already detected by the secret guards sent by Tuoba Jun to protect Butterfly Valley.

“I anticipated this and am handling it,” Lu Tangzhi said succinctly, aware that he needed to be discreet.

But now that Ling Heng had given the order, he could act boldly without hesitation. “Boss Ling, you could have done this much earlier. You don’t know how arrogant she’s been since returning from Paris—she even went so far as to say you two were getting married...” Jiang Yuan continued talking, but Ling Heng had already hung up.

Xia Nuanxin propped herself up on her elbows, attempting to rise, but as soon as she lifted slightly, her arms gave out. Her body felt as if it had just recovered from a severe illness, utterly drained of strength. She collapsed heavily back onto the soft mattress.

Following An Zhengye, An Ge made a face at An Dad’s back. Just as An Mom turned around, she was caught red-handed.

Anyone with keen eyes could see that Gu Nuo Yi liked Zhuo Ya, but Zhuo Ya was now officially Nuo Yi’s future sister-in-law.

Xiaosa held a cup of tea, gazing at the snowflakes outside the window. He took gentle sips, smiling faintly as he heard the gossip about himself in the inn’s main hall. Shaking his head, he dismissed those useless rumors entirely.

“Look, look, stars, so many stars, so bright,” Lu Chen pointed at the sky excitedly like a child.

“You definitely have something, probably even better. Hand it over!” Those eyes locked onto Changbai Wuyai blazed with fierce intensity.

However, considering that those guests were staying in such an expensive hotel, they were likely no ordinary people. It was only natural they carried such an imposing aura.

“No, I am not dead yet,” Liu Hong shook his head lightly at Zhang Rang’s worries. To provoke Huang Pusong and raise the stakes in his mind, Liu Hong also revealed his promise to Huang Pusong.

When Guan Xiaojun was in university, many classmates doubted such things. After all, they all had nine years of compulsory education as the state promoted. Why, then, was Guan Xiaojun’s hometown only eight years?

She believed that if Lin Yun had better conditions or a better job, he wouldn’t have to pull a cart selling vegetables.

However, Lin Chong now had methods to deal with monsters. At the TPC headquarters, a location considered an experimental runway for aircraft carriers, there was a runway 2,000 meters long and over thirty meters wide, with an electromagnetic launch entrance.

After Zamxia left, Lin Chong lifted the seals from the Sakkinos. They immediately fled because, in their eyes, Lin Chong was a formidable demon lord they wished never to meet again. That was why he did not encounter them at the ball.

No wonder Chu Feng became security—any past stain, no matter how many achievements one has, can be completely erased.

Newcomers found everything strange, probably still unaccustomed to the rhythm of the new world. Lin Di didn’t dwell on the posts and kept scrolling, looking for veteran users’ feedback on the events.

Later, Huo Rui followed General Huo on an expedition that lasted about three months. During this time, images of Feng Mi repeatedly surfaced in his mind.

Upon entering the Qianqing Palace, he happened upon Qi Qianyi tearfully accusing Feng Linglong before the emperor.

Guo Lingling infused true energy into her sword, which blossomed with numerous flowers. At this moment, her attack power had increased more than sevenfold, each strike a critical hit.

Fairy Spirit Stones came in nine types, divided into three color series: from one to three realms were dark purple, plum purple, and light purple; four to six realms were lake blue, cyan blue, and light blue; seven to nine realms were pure red, orange-red, and light red.

Daoist Chongling swept his whisk, releasing a powerful white qi that struck the Yin Corpse, which evaded with a strange technique.

Empress Dou was already burning with resentment, but upon seeing Su Ruhe, that fury could no longer be contained.

Gu Mochen thought some bruises were inevitable in combat, especially since Fu Chen’s strength rivaled his own.

Gu Sheng had never met Li Jinnan, but for Xiao Yu’s sake, she had someone investigate him thoroughly.

As the crown prince’s carriage approached, a sudden scene startled everyone, leaving Lady Liu’s face utterly pale.

However, the security in Huadu had seen every kind of scene. The guard gripping Liang Jing’s arm used his free hand to ruthlessly cover her mouth and nose, silencing her cries for help.

She got up to get water, but upon opening the door, she saw a pair of feet—belonging to a man.

Rong Zhuo, having calmed himself, looked at the large hole in the ground and quickly retracted his golden wings. Instinctively, he felt that if that dignitary saw this, he would pluck every feather from him.

The person in the co-pilot seat fell into a deep sleep again. Yan Tingxu remained silent for a long while, then chuckled softly before starting the car and driving on without stopping.

“You will never find her!” Frank had gone mad, laughing hysterically while hovering midair.

The situation was unusual. Some things he said were not entirely truthful, but the phrase “Decided by Zhou Yang” was undeniably true. Why, then, was it not believed?

Upon hearing this, Xu Ci sneered. Hearing Xu Qing’s voice deepened the mockery on his face, and a sinister, dark light flickered in his eyes.
