39 Reparations

Whether it was Yun Lai in the past, Qiao Qiao once upon a time, or Yun Qiao today, they all shared a fear of the dark.

"Alright, I’m off. Let’s keep in touch, bye!" Having obtained Izumi’s contact information and thinking that Joy and Professor Maze must be worried sick, Bai Mo decided not to linger; after all, there would be plenty of time to catch up with Izumi later.

Little did she know, An Qing was looking down at her from a high vantage point. In her eyes, there was nothing but unconcealable excitement—not a trace of the reaction Liu Hongyang had hoped to see.

Suddenly, a roar that seemed to echo from ancient times resounded across the heavens, deafening and thunderous. It made the hundred-plus audience members and guests shudder in unison, as if startled by a fright.

In the morning, Guo Qiang brought back hundreds of balance ledgers, assistance records, and various promotional materials from the township poverty alleviation office.

This place bordered the vast ocean, offering safety, abundant food, and rich resources... The question arose: could they move their home here?

However, there was one advantage: a Gardevoir who had pledged loyalty to a master would not be targeted by hunters or illegal factions, because even if one used unconventional means to capture her, she would not obey them.

After the encounter ended, the man waited for Lin Xi’s call. Once confirmed, he would immediately arrange for his parents to visit the Lin family.

Yi Feng sent Qin Youruo home to rest, then returned to the office, acting as if nothing had happened.

Ye Qingwan reached up and pulled down the fabric covering her shoulder. Sure enough, the skin beneath was already festering, with some black insects crawling across it.

My heart sank. Were they really going to fight? They outnumbered us three to one, and the courtyard was crowded with commoners; if any were accidentally injured, the repercussions would be severe. Just as Shisi was about to speak, the magistrate suddenly made a gesture, and the bailiffs surged forward, locked in a life-or-death struggle with the undercover agents.

In that brief moment of distraction, several more SUVs appeared, many of them Toyota Land Cruisers, charging straight down the path.

Looking at the Dong Zhuo soldiers crowding the city walls, Yuan Shao had no intention of letting his coalition forces set up camp to rest. Instead, he ordered the warlords to launch an attack on Sishui Pass that very day.

He recognized Zhao Yun; in the battle against the Xiongnu, Zhao Yun had stolen the spotlight, and he had long been wary of him. Then there was that golden-speared youth, whose martial prowess was no less than Zhao Yun’s. To go out and intercept them now meant facing either one, and he wasn’t foolish enough to risk his life when survival was the priority.

Although the development of Flame City was slower compared to the Yuan Kingdom, it was still progressing steadily. Aside from Flame City, they had established another branch city, bringing the total population to 150,000.

If one looked closely, the lines of this painting were not as smooth as others, as if the artist’s hand had been trembling while working.

Upon hearing this, Lady Su Hu’s expression shifted. She stared blankly at Su Daji, then at the Su Daji transformed by the Nine-Tailed Fox, her face filled with disbelief.

Wang Chongyang felt the numbness spreading throughout his entire body. Even though he was a spiritual entity, it felt as if his physical body had returned, leaving him unable to move an inch.

However, this type of medicine was different from the "jelly-body" organ. The jelly-body could continue to accumulate energy after consuming its storage acid, but the medicine Lin Yue spoke of was a one-time use. It was refined by extracting the storage acid from the jelly-body; by ingesting it, one could boost their physical strength for a short period.

The off-road vehicle was less than 30 meters away from the Toyota Land Cruiser, and everything ahead was clearly visible.

"Looks like this guy has suffered quite a bit," Li Zhishi thought, nodding to himself. Given Zhang Feng’s arrogant nature, he might have fared even worse in the hands of these two than with the superficial, gluttonous man.

Under Tang Qi’s euphemistic interrogation, Zhu Cheng, who had been silent for quite some time, suddenly stood up, left his chair, and walked to the window to close it.

"Defiled? You can ask them both—have I defiled them?" Chen Zui’s expression was indifferent, as if he had already cast aside all concerns for life and death.

Binzi found the building’s property management and requested to view the lobby surveillance footage from a few days ago, but the head of security refused, claiming the cameras were broken and under repair. Binzi argued with the security guard on the spot, but left empty-handed.

Following the path I had taken last time, I headed toward the main hall on the first floor. I hadn’t gone far when I heard voices coming from within.

Beitang Li rested for a long while, ensuring his complexion had improved and the cold sweat on his body had dried so that Su Jinxi and the others would notice nothing amiss, before pushing the door open to step out.

In the grass-thatched house, that box of medicinal herbs had become particularly crucial at this moment. There was no chance of Tie Tou’s injuries healing on their own; delaying treatment would only lead to deterioration and potentially life-threatening consequences.

After parting ways with Guan Jinlin, Hatoyama Chin-o, Tsuruta Kazuo, and Katori Kusane slept soundly. Hatoyama, now awake, suddenly heard knocking outside. He opened the cabin hatch to check, only to find Guo Dayong and his men standing below.

It seemed He Houyi had relocated his camp during my absence. He was right to do so, but he still lacked sufficient resolve.

Everyone was stunned. Hearing that the location of the Mount Tai Steel Stone had been found, they put down their food and looked in the direction of Zhou Yingying’s finger.

Tang Gu swung his blade, shattering the shackles and slamming it heavily against the Ancestral Sword. The impact sent ripples through the stars, detonating the origin of the Ancestral Realm in the distance. The origin was triggered and exploded instantly, its brutal power engulfing everything.

The five Ancestral Realm experts looked at the Divine Bird’s father with disdain. No one in the world surpassed the Ancestral Realm; the only ones capable of killing them were the five of them.

The Ninth Prince was overjoyed. His empire had been built upon a single piece of pseudo-world-artifact brick; if he obtained another, neither Mu Yunfeng nor Zhi Ge could take his throne from him even by joining forces. Conversely, if Mu Yunfeng obtained it, he could easily turn the tables and overthrow his rule.

But no matter what, one could not simply carry off all the public’s best treasures to their own home.

Even within the same country, conflicts exist. And even between different countries, alliances can be formed. The imperial court and the martial arts sects were rivals, but those great families might have close ties to one or several martial arts sects.
