Chapter 21

Bai Shanshan recalled that Imperial Physician Hua had indeed mentioned she could seek him out at the Hua estate if she ever needed anything. She had not expected him to take it to heart and proactively send someone over.

As for Monta’s kiss, while others remained unaware, I knew she was merely replenishing her energy. Yet, it sparked jeers and cheers from the diners at the barbecue stall.

He Shufan approached slowly, and I could sense the yin energy radiating from her. At the same time, I heard Li Jinman and Hu Xiushan calling out to me.

Traveling with the Divine Calculator, I noticed that although we encountered other ghosts along the way, they all took the initiative to clear a path for the three of us, which I found quite strange.

Since Old Ma had put it that way, I nodded and agreed to cooperate with the Divine Calculator. In any case, I hadn't given much thought to whether we would get out or not; I could always turn back—it wasn't as if I had to head toward the Boundless Sea of Bitterness. After all, Old Ma and I weren't dead.

Although the dining room was some distance from the main hall, the door was left open, allowing those inside a clear view of the situation outside.

Since they were there to pick up Zhou Yifan, why block her path? They subjected her to a harsh scolding and threats, even forcing her to eat a piece of chocolate.

Just then, a figure swaying her hips and performing a belly dance emerged slowly from behind the gauze curtains.

The green light on his body refused to fade, as if the color effects in a game had suddenly glitched.

Bai Song followed his second brother’s orders implicitly, immediately running in front of the horse and blocking the path with his short arms.

Consequently, the Yong'an Marquis Estate—a long-declined household—was still able to maintain its standing in the capital's circles of power primarily because of Ji Jinxing’s secret support.

Zhang Hao thought to himself. However, he was currently seated on the side and needed to find an opportunity to approach Noriko Yamaguchi.

What kind of mother could she be, to make such a rash decision that would consign her son to a world of black and white for the rest of his life?

Despite having many doubts, Yu Jin ultimately shook his head and stood firmly by Wang Xiong’s side.

According to the agreement, Pakunoda braved the heavy rain and arrived alone at the Lingong Airport on the outskirts of Yorknew City.

Beigong Meng was well-versed in the Phantom God Palm; seeing that her injury had left no wound, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Tang Manting also turned to glance at Hong Wu. It had to be said that she was exceptionally beautiful tonight; a long silver-white dress accentuated her curvaceous figure, and her flawless, jade-like arms were exposed, enough to make any man want to reach out and touch them.

It was peak dinner time, yet they were the only two guests on the entire floor, a quietness that felt deeply unnatural.

"With the senior here, Wuxin, and Brother Long’s wisdom, they will be fine," Hua Xiangyun said.

"Very well, it is a promise." Gu Zhong nodded in a friendly manner, then turned and walked along the corner of the wall to the right.

Seeing that even Elder Qi had said as much, the others could only nod. They were merely going on a hunch; they truly had no evidence to prove that Han Qiu was stirring up trouble.

"Are you saying Lady Jun is also involved in this?" When Commander Zhao heard the name, all his attention shifted to it. Compared to Lady Jun, Ding Yan was of no consequence.

Xiao Fan, who seemed to be at his limit, suddenly unleashed a thunderous momentum, scoring two consecutive points and leaving the young man both wanting to choose him and afraid to do so.

Watching Monica leave his room, A-Jin was about to depart as well when he heard a noise. Glancing curiously at his phone, he opened it again to find a new set of photos, different from the ones before.

"Despicable? No, no, no. Princess Snow, you are my baby. I love you—truly, to the point of madness, to the point where I cannot control myself, where even knowing it is a crime, I still want to possess you. Believe me, you will be satisfied, truly." Mike, itching with desire, rubbed his hands together and took a step toward Lin Ruoxue.

Before Nelfi could finish speaking, a powerful pressure descended from the sky, causing both of them to feel a sharp constriction in their chests.

Because of his previous promise to Ding Yan, Li Yaotian did not reveal Ding Yan's whereabouts after rescuing Su Mo. After all, if he went back on his word, he wouldn't be Li Yaotian.

"I took a look today; there's a villa in the southern suburbs that isn't bad. About six million, quite close to the city center, with convenient transportation. It has three floors, fifteen rooms, and the surrounding environment is decent," Lin Ruohan said to Xiao Fan.

"You're the one who's going to cry." Liu Shanshan was speechless, wondering just how bored this person could be. Still, she couldn't help but make her habitual sarcastic remark.

"And these dogs, they are accomplices too!" Dabai, holding her child at the doorway, kicked a security guard in the backside, sending him sprawling. The family members swarmed forward, beating the two guards until they were half-dead.

"Buy it," a voice said—an ancient, resonant sound like a bell echoing in Xu Yiming's mind, making him feel dizzy.

"I don't know, there are just too many people, I can't squeeze in at all. I have photos here, though." Yang Cheng stealthily took out his phone, guarding it as if it were a treasure.

Back in the lane, Yasuo’s offense was clearly more aggressive, his actions more arrogant. The EQ-flash technique had never been seen before, neither in casual nor high-level play. With this battle, he was telling the world that Yasuo was capable of an EQ-flash, and that it could bring unexpected surprises, allowing one to show off in an instant.

"How are we going to team fight?" The Rek'Sai was scuttling around underground; usually arrogant, he had now lost his nerve entirely.

The non-human creature that had been knocked back bounced up the moment it hit the ground. Before it could rush forward to tear apart the obstacle in its path, it was met with another rapidly flying javelin.

"The imperial physician said his time is running out. I believe the reason my father hasn't breathed his last is that he wishes to see Your Majesty one last time," Li Xiaoren said, his eyes bloodshot.

Seeing You Jingyan sit directly on the ground like that, Wu Wenjian felt that the people of Liulin County were quite fortunate.

You Jingyan had no power or influence; to fight Zhao Yunjie would be difficult even with the incorruptible Bao Zheng, but by dragging the Cao family into the fray, You Jingyan had gained another bargaining chip.
