Chapter 38

Gao Shiman wanted to ask why the Wang woman had hanged herself. Was it because Su Qian was duplicitous and had driven his wife to death, or was there some other reason? Yet, she found it difficult to press the matter. A giant question mark lingered in her mind, and she resolved to uncover the truth one day, for the weight of the uncertainty pressed heavily upon her heart.

"So formidable... these seven must all be martial artists at the peak of the Spirit-Communication realm." A flicker of astonishment crossed Chen Luo’s eyes; with his current cultivation, he could not discern the depth of these seven individuals.

He pondered whether there was any way to save Jin Xizhen, though Ming You’s demeanor suggested he would never grant him any favors.

"You..." Shen Lixing did not know where she came up with such twisted logic, and he felt utterly helpless against her.

She was the one everyone had once predicted would be dumped by Ouyang Huan within days, yet Ouyang Huan had kept her by his side all this time.

The dignified man felt no dissatisfaction at the old man’s indifferent behavior; instead, he bowed to him once more with a smile before turning to depart.

"Enough, stop living in a dream world." Wang Dong had heard this no less than three times, so he cut Xiao Feihu off directly.

I had long since seen through her pretense. Although she spoke this way, her eyes were brimming with mirth—and what was this nonsense about a "brother-in-law"?

Some time ago, some malicious soul had leaked word of Ji Ruo’s affairs to Chen Wufan, the third son of the First Madam.

Chen Luo looked at the pale purple alchemy furnace engraved with avian motifs and felt a sudden realization. This furnace had been obtained from Lin Quan. Lin Quan was known as a master craftsman, so how could a furnace he kept in his room be anything less than extraordinary?

Just as Yan Ruo was lost in her own thoughts, Yun Kai, whom she had just seen, appeared before her.

"My master invites you inside. The three of you, please follow me!" Hearing this from within, the two guards dared not show the slightest negligence and hurriedly led Tang Yu and his companions as they flew inside.

After the meal was finished, Shen Xuyan kissed Yan Ruo gently on the forehead and turned to leave the bedroom.

The thought of taking on an apprentice just to have someone help look after the children made Zhang Ye feel a bit amused.

"It really is hard work! Is the milk tea in your hand for me?" Yang Jun asked with a smile.

Meanwhile, Tang Zhazha stood on the rooftop garden of the main villa, peering through binoculars at a certain spot in Qingfeng Garden. After a long while, he lowered the binoculars, took out his phone to toy with it for some time, and finally, after checking the time on his watch, placed a call.

I could not help but feel a mixture of amusement and frustration. Pregnancy? The girl was clearly mentally unstable and would say anything.

At that moment, a figure appeared silently behind Yaoyang, holding a blade to his throat. Feeling a sudden chill at his neck, Yaoyang looked down and was struck with shock.

Xu Mo had suffered severe trauma, including a mild concussion, and his left arm had been crushed between the steering wheel and the shattered car window. It was a serious injury involving both bone and soft tissue, leaving his left arm currently immobilized in a cast.

He knew the homeroom teacher had good intentions, but Duan Xu had been preoccupied with his college applications lately; he had already decided which school he would attend.

Su Lingya’s delicate body trembled. She had never imagined that her mother would bring up the matter between her and him.

What was strange was that even without her glasses, she could see clearly. Had the gentleman cured her eyes?

Yuan Wei was a soldier and unskilled in these convoluted schemes. Thinking of the Duke of Sui’s meritorious service and the trust the Martial Emperor placed in him, he realized there was no need to put on a cold face for anyone, so he nodded in agreement.

The sheer power was terrifying, leaving even Wei Ziqing stunned. The magnitude of the explosion was immense, but he also noticed a bolt of lightning streaking toward the Central City Police Department, striking Barry directly.

Star artifacts were brought by meteors. Lin Zhen knew that a planet had shattered, scattering extraterrestrial objects across Earth, but not a single star artifact had landed in the Wudalianchi area. Therefore, no God of War would ever come here looking for trouble.

Yet, Han Le still easily defended his reputation as the champion of the Tree Academy’s elimination tournament. Combined with his previous exploits—the legend of the "worst recommended student" and the "King of Demon Music"—many became curious about this somewhat "unruly" musician.

At this moment, Chen He gritted his teeth. He had spent the last while registering an account, preparing to log onto the forum and lash back.

India’s elusive, serpentine martial arts were on full display in this match, causing the Dragon King considerable trouble at one point.

Although the follower contract could not be changed once signed, and while it was not as harsh as a master-servant contract with a pet, it was still a significant personal constraint for a follower.

Wang Xiu, Zhu Jia, and Zhai Qihan all gathered around. They were not yet certain of the Sea King’s strength, so since the Sea King had suggested playing a round of League of Legends, they naturally would not miss this chance to test his ability.

"Father, please calm your anger. Your son... accepts the decree." Xuanyuan Mo felt like weeping but could not bear to cause his father further anxiety in his final days.

"Since you’ve put it that way, it would be rude of me to refuse." A sinister expression flickered across the face of the leader of the Evil Dragons. Though it lasted only for an instant, Bardock caught it.

After hearing no reply from the Xiaoyao Prince for a long while, I knew that he could no longer care for me as he once did, and it was entirely possible he would truly hand me over to the Emperor.

Sitting in that imperial city waiting for him was not a man like any other father, but a monarch who ruled over all under heaven.
