Volume 1, Chapter 30: The Wretched State of Song Qianshan

These scattered forces were casually absorbed into his inner world, unable to cause even the slightest harm.

Wei Qingyan had enjoyed Auntie’s loving care for nearly three years. How could he refuse to let her seek out her own child merely because he feared she might be implicated?

Jiang Qingyue had also repeatedly reminded Consort Li, both openly and discreetly, to take good care of the child in her womb and not go out casually. Though Consort Li did not understand why, she still agreed when she saw the solemn expression on Jiang Qingyue’s face.

Now that the seal on the Demon Realm was about to be lifted, if the human and demon races went to war, the Demon Realm would instead be the one to profit.

After Chu Xuan’s hundred days of living in that world came to an end, he returned to the Lord God’s Space. It was then Jiang Yin’s turn to enter the world of The Mummy.

He pulled out the wooden plug and gently blew into the opening. With a loud whoosh, a flame shot out of the tube and immediately blazed brightly.

Only after calling out “Wanzhou” did Jiang Qingyue realize that Wanzhou had gone home to visit her family and had not yet returned to the palace.

This was not something Han Yuan alone had experienced. Every Dao Sovereign had passed through those years. They were clearly only one step away from proving the Dao, yet that single step was longer and farther than all the countless steps they had taken before.

After traveling through the Spirit Realm, Shen Xing reached the right side. There were still people in the Second Right Camp, so he had no choice but to hide behind a fence in the Right 2.5 Camp.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingyue extended her wrist. Wanzhou placed a soft pillow beneath it, and after taking her pulse, Madam He wore a rather grave expression.

He Yu slowly sat up. His hand brushed against something beside him. When he lowered his head to look, he found that it was actually a jade token.

A handsome man even had a magnetic, pleasant voice. As he spoke, one of the household servants came over to drive him away.

“Get out!”

With the master present, the servant did not dare raise his voice, but he spoke in a low, stern tone.

Because people were not accustomed to it, they dared not charge too much. In any case, Young Madam Chu’s five-tael investment was certain not to lose money.

Even mud could be roasted into something delicious? Well, from a scientific point of view, this method really did allow the heat to distribute evenly. It ought to be a blessing for a kitchen novice like her.

When Lei Qiu saw He Yu run off, he immediately followed. However, he was still a step too slow and only entered He Yu’s tent afterward. By then, He Yu had already exited the game space.

“It’s truly too good for them. They started the trouble themselves, yet we still have to clean up their mess!” Wu Jie muttered under his breath, but he did not dare openly question Li Tianyang’s decision.

“I’m not hungry. Taohua has eaten her fill.” Taohua tugged at the end of her sister-in-law’s hair and replied timidly.

A disciple of the Azure Dragon Sect spoke and then walked over. Unlike the ghost cultivators, he was not crushed by the power of the barrier. Yet a strange figure suddenly appeared within the barrier and slashed at him with a sword, cleaving him in two as easily as cutting a melon.

The Earth Federation’s martial arts had evolved from the ancient Chinese martial arts and military combat techniques of the pre–New Era. Combining the strengths of both while cultivating the inner and outer aspects, they had formed a distinct school among the many interstellar alliances.

Poseidon was puzzled when an old man emerged from the room. The slow-moving old man lifted his head and looked in his direction. Their gazes met in midair like sparks colliding.

He wore a black hooded windbreaker, with the hood pulled over his head. Only when he had come within ten meters of us did he remove it.

Whether soldiers or workers, the insects all had exceptionally sturdy bodies. After killing their prey, they needed to carry the food back to the queen. Yet these insects did not.

For Nina and the other White Russians who had fled to Shanghai, the chances of returning to the Soviet Union in the future were exceedingly slim. Yet for these White Russians, once the foreign concessions were reclaimed, there would be no guarantee of their fate.

“Now Big Sister gets up early every morning to go running, and she has added a great deal more training as well.” An Jing smiled as she explained.

“I’ve already stated my conditions. If you agree, I’ll carry them out immediately.” I refused to yield even an inch and spoke in a deep voice.

In truth, Li Chen was afraid when facing this murderous elder brother, but he did not want to reveal his cowardice. That was why he occasionally dared to act recklessly.

“Do you think you’re so good-looking yourself?” The angry big white cat raised its tail and swayed it from side to side, looking as though it wanted to beat someone up.

Back when she was in the military camp, she had heard many people speak of Hu Biao. She knew that while the other city-defense troops were desperately breaking out of the city, Hu Biao alone had led his men into the city, intending to hold out in the presidential palace until the very last moment.

“Why? Why did you have to make me suffer so terribly?” Lu Xin gave a bitter laugh, his voice filled with unwillingness.

That was why she had urged him to marry Lei Yu. He had kept the girl waiting for so many years. Moreover, in the imperial capital, the engagement between the Lei family and her Ye family had already been dissolved. Though it had been her decision, it had also preserved the Lei family’s dignity.

“Dream God, what brings you to my Moon God Residence so late at night?” Yue Xia hurried forward to greet him and asked.

“Sister-in-law, why put yourself through this?” Feng Qingyao could not understand. Though living at home was somewhat difficult, surely it was still better than leaving one’s homeland and wandering elsewhere.

Ma Jian had been keeping a low profile lately. Even his Prince Yu’s Residence was eerily quiet, without the slightest sound. It was already rare for him to come out, yet when he met Guo Huai, he exchanged only a few bland words. It was truly baffling.

“Uh…” Yun Jinyao descended back to the ground and immediately asked the System Deity, “Does falling unconscious not count as losing? Do I really have to kill him?”

“Hmph. Send her to the police station. We must make sure someone gives her a proper lesson. She’s obviously insane!” Li Jiajun sneered coldly.

Gu Zixi, still shaken, shielded Huangfu Sheng behind her. Her face remained slightly pale, and she glared fiercely at Gong Xiazhu.

With his large hand resting on her waist, heat surged through his entire body. In an instant, he felt as though he had been placed at the mouth of a volcano—scorching hot, unbearably hot, filled with burning desire.

Yun Jinyao: “Uh…” What was there to admire about this? Who knew how many survivors were still starving to death every day because they had nothing to eat?

They blew out the candles and cut the cake, never realizing that this might be the last birthday on which their father and mother would celebrate together.

Fu Ran’s former life in the Fu family had made her heart exceptionally cold. Yet people like her also longed more desperately for familial affection. Thus, when Zhou Ziya treated her this way, she was even more easily moved.

While the two of them were chatting, several of the older brothers returned. Snow was falling outside, and when they came in, snowflakes still clung to their clothes. They brushed the snow off themselves before entering.
