Chapter 123: Refusal to Believe

The reason Xing Jue personally tore apart the Xing family's overseas assets was that his initial plan was to provoke Xing Dai. By faking his disappearance, he maneuvered Xing Dai into sending him to the mines; Xing Jue truly wanted to avenge her.

Si Yao’s feelings... were indescribable.

She felt stifled, somewhat self-reproachful, a little sad, and also... heartbroken.

...

Looking down, Zhao Meng finally saw his hand severed cleanly at the wrist, the palm still clutching the gun as it lay on the ground.

Anyone with a modicum of intelligence could see that the Emperor was signaling several things: the Second Prince was being sent as an envoy to the Yaoyue Kingdom and the Honghanming Kingdom, yet the commander-in-chief was the Emperor’s son-in-law, a move that subtly hinted at a desire to bring the two closer.

He was deeply worried that Ou Xiaoli might lose control of her emotions again, which would render him unable to say anything, and the entire purpose of seeking out Ou Xiaojun today would be lost.

"If some people refuse to believe in the supernatural, then let them see it for themselves! By the way, remember to hide your true strength; don't you dare break the aura-concealing jades I gave you!" Bai Jingteng said.

"What’s wrong? What happened? Is some high-ranking leader coming down for an inspection?" Sun Li asked with a smile.

"I wouldn't call it happy. An elderly person should act like an elderly person, with the life and mindset of an elderly person; this is perfectly fine. Are you heading home, or are you coming with me to pick up Kang Kang?" Number One asked while walking outside.

Indeed, it had been quite some time since the last Dao Soldier assessment; it was time to prove himself. Otherwise, playing the fool while hiding his true capabilities as a Dao Soldier would inevitably start to feel strange even to himself.

"That is the whole story. I didn't lie to you." Yu Juan glanced at Lin Xiangnan and suddenly emphasized this point.

Logically speaking, local governments would indeed be wary of provoking the military, but Li Dongsheng had that kind of personality—you didn't want to get on his bad side, because if you did, he wouldn't care even if you were the Emperor himself.

Li Hu felt that his horizons were expanding more and more. This host was someone he could previously only see on television.

They had suffered too much. When they sent Zigui away, their greatest hope for him was merely that he could shed his status as the son of a disgraced official, grow up one day, and when he had the ability and the means, return to the Northern Desert to exhume their graves and bring their coffins back to their ancestral land.

01 stepped forward, lifted the wings of the bird carcass to examine what was underneath, and then raised its feathers, discovering dense clusters of insect eggs. He then reached out with his fingers to pinch a Nix worm, which had been mangled in the crash, took a careful look at it, and tossed it aside.

When these words reached Fu Yan's ears, she was even more incensed. If Ji He hadn't been scared to tears that time, Fu Yan would have nearly kicked off her shoes and climbed the tree herself.

Impossible, impossible. That was just a scene from a television show, not reality; don't scare yourself. An Yirou patted her chest to comfort herself, then took several deep breaths, letting her mood slowly calm down.

Her superior, Cheng Zhimei, never spoke of his private life at the hospital, but Shi Hui had inadvertently run into him with his wife a few times and knew that their marriage was not a happy one. Once, Shi Hui even saw Mrs. Cheng embracing and kissing a strange man on the street.

Li Qing let out a fierce roar, his fists and feet dancing to create several brilliant curtains of light. Like sharp sword energy, they were incredibly keen as they lunged fiercely toward Ling Zihuan.

And so, after a moment of contemplation, Ye Shu set up a concealment array in both his and Yan Changlan's sleeping quarters and their meditation room.

Of course, she didn't intend to tell Mother Yan Ke about these things just yet, because she wanted to give her a surprise.

She had been dizzy with busyness these past few days; although he hadn't seen it, he had guessed as much.

After Shang Biao walked in, he discovered that of the five guardian immortals, only the fox, the snake, and the mouse remained. If the host had not perished, the yellow weasel representing the Yellow Immortal and the hedgehog representing the White Immortal would never have vanished.
