Chapter 124: He Wants to Escape
Beiyu thought to herself, that person is truly ruthless.
"She interferes with the plot like this and suffers no consequences at all. It seems this so-called Heavenly Way is nothing more than this."
Beiyu grumbled, feeling deeply unsettled. By the dictates of the Heavenly Way, it should have been maintaining the integrity of the plot. Because she refused to seduce Shen Jin, she had been penalized by the system and left to languish in such a desolate place for so many years.
...
As for Qiao Mingjin and her group, having earned more money today than they had in quite some time, they went to the grain shop to buy some rice and flour, then visited the general store for oil and salt.
"Hiss!" The mount was instantly startled, rearing up on its hind legs and lunging fiercely toward the Ghost Dragon Horse.
Liu Feng gritted his teeth and recounted the rest of the events exactly as they happened, without the slightest attempt at concealment; after all, hiding things would only invite more trouble.
Helian frowned. He had managed to guess a little about Feng Gui's identity, but he could not understand why Ye Ji would ask him such a question.
Qiao Mingjin smiled. Whether or not the steward would relay this to the master of the house, she did not know. But he was a purchasing agent; how could he not have the authority to set prices?
"I'm talking to you! Have you called a physician to see her?" Ye Kui felt irritable. Seeing that Yusha did not respond, she stifled her anger and asked again.
Xu Feng no longer dressed so gaudily; her standard work uniform gave her the appearance of a proper laborer.
At this moment, amidst a certain peak of the Sword Sect, two white-haired elders were playing chess. Their status was shockingly high; even a powerhouse at the Qi-Refining Realm would have to show them the utmost respect.
When Ye Ji tried to enter the classroom again, he was blocked by an invisible barrier...
"Impossible. Not one of these people is a novice; they are all veterans who have traveled the world with me and risked their lives by my side," the middle-aged man retorted bluntly.
Had this been the Xie residence before their misfortune, people would have already swarmed them with greetings and flattery. But now, the Xie family's status was clearly precarious, so everyone deliberately kept their distance, as if terrified of being associated with them.
The six of them scattered to see if they could find any clues, but after a short while, they gathered back together and shook their heads at one another.
He cast a glance at the calm and collected Liu Jun, then at Liu Jiaojiao, who had left the Qin woman speechless with just a few words, and finally shifted his gaze to his own precious son, letting out a silent sigh.
As the candy entered his mouth, sweetness overflowed, and at the same time, a refreshing sensation swept through his entire body, bringing an initial sense of stability to Dongfang Shuo's once chaotic mind.
Watching Feng depart, Mubai was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until he saw the dark, viscous secretion on his skin and raised his hand to his nose to smell the foul stench that a wave of nausea hit him. Without a word, he immediately flew his sword toward Qinghe, washing himself over a dozen times until the smell was gone before finally returning to the Mountain Ghost Temple.
"Logically speaking, you, Wu Wei, and Gao Lang grew up together," the man's deep, resonant voice rang out, carrying an authority that brooked no dissent.
"Furthermore, with the disaster at the mistress's family home, I doubt she has the heart to attend," added Sister-in-law Zhou.
Now that we are in the second round of the PK, at this critical juncture, please do not be stingy with your recommendation votes; cast them all for me.
The Kesuo Mercenary Group had yet to find a trace of the Flame Lion. They assumed their mage friends had already departed ahead of them, and the entire camp was packing up, preparing to withdraw.
The vital signs monitor first emitted a series of beeps, and then the figures on the screen representing heart rate, pulse, and blood pressure began to rise from zero, only stopping once they reached the levels of a normal human being.
Although he was injured, the cause of this incident stemmed from him. Given the outcome, I did not feel the Alliance was being unfair, so in my eyes, his apology was only natural.
His gaze was so affectionate, like the vastest of oceans. Jian Ning "drowned" within it, clutching the quilt as she nodded, feeling both apologetic and at peace.
