Chapter 29: The Blossoming Little Dumpling

Li Yunchu was no fool. Even if she hadn’t been in many relationships, she knew the saying: just because you haven’t eaten pork doesn’t mean you’ve never seen a pig run. She felt that Doctor Yao Yuan harbored some hostility toward her. Yet, she couldn’t outright accuse him of having feelings for Pei Siya; otherwise, people might say, “You really think your husband is a treasure, that everyone would fancy him?”

Some things others could do, but she couldn’t say without being wrong.

At this moment, the vitality within Ai Luo was gradually restoring, though it would take some time before full consciousness returned.

Kirin found the food problem quite vexing. No matter how powerful he was, he couldn’t conjure enough food out of thin air to feed billions on this barren land.

Chen Feng didn’t believe that Zhu Zhanji would betray him; after all, Chen Feng now held not only the position of imperial son-in-law but also the prestigious rank of deputy leader of the martial arts alliance.

“Wei Yong is currently communicating with the jewelry store owner to gather information. There should be some progress now; he will report directly to you,” Jia Hai replied.

However, even if he wanted to refuse, Ji Xiao had to show some respect to the Wei people. Otherwise, offending them would make life difficult for the Zhou family as well.

In the blink of an eye, amid gusts of chilling wind, those six-sided steel throwing stars rapidly rusted and decayed under everyone’s watchful eyes. Then, swept away by a night breeze, they disintegrated into fine ashes drifting softly in all directions.

Tianshui Group was different from Huayu. While Huayu was the largest financial investment enterprise in the coastal area, Tianshui’s strength lay in retail. It still dominated the retail market throughout northern China and had recently ventured into the pharmaceutical industry. It was a company whose foundation and finances rivaled Huayu’s.

“I will make it up to you,” Jackson said with a smile, looking at Li Zhiming without a trace of apology in his tone.

“I heard that Boss Wang from Jubin Tower has dog whip wine. How about we brothers give it a try today?” Er Quazi was still off-topic, chatting idly.

The moment they entered the passage, the formation of the Sword Tomb activated, teleporting the ten inside to different locations to seek their fortunes.

Yet, Yin Mengli still refused to believe Xiao Hun’s words, shaking her head desperately as tears streamed down uncontrollably.

Seeing the two about to exert full power, Tian Xuanzi quickly formed hand seals and summoned a purple-gold Bagua talisman. Tossing it into the air, it hovered, enveloping the entire mountain peak in a protective aura.

Downstairs, Li Qishen’s tall and upright figure reclined into the sofa, occupying the entire length with an air of dominance.

In the private chamber, members of the three great families gathered. Since the three houses were interconnected and familiar with each other, they skipped pleasantries and got straight to the point. Nan Lichu asked, “Do you truly believe Tian Xuan carries a supreme treasure from the immortal realm?” Fei Yushang, having had little contact with Tian Xuan, remained silent.

For a moment, she truly felt fortunate. Though she was not her biological father’s child, at least her body bore no defects, and both her parents were in good health.

Speaking of which, Tian Xuanzi rushed back hastily. Upon reaching the mountain base, he found the mountain’s seal broken and hundreds of disciples entering continuously. Worried, he pondered briefly and realized this was the perfect moment to unleash the Thunderous Might.

Meeting his overly dark yet anxious gaze, she grinned lazily, maintaining her carefree demeanor.

This weighed heavily on Lu Zheng’s conscience. If only his strength had been sufficient, perhaps he could have retrieved it much earlier.

He downed the red wine in his glass in one gulp. Since Nan Mengze rarely drank, this single cup made him thoroughly intoxicated. His self-amused state was unmatched, even Tang Xue’er found it dizzying to watch.
