Chapter 63 Jiang Bai Strikes Back
"Captain Duan, I understand how you feel. It is only natural to feel irritable and emotional after sustaining injuries. However, I hope you can realize that your body belongs to you alone. If you do not cherish yourself, no amount of help from others will be of any use."
Duan Qi said nothing further and simply closed his eyes. While Jiang Bai remained oblivious to the truth, Duan Qi was well aware of his own intentions. He was deliberately picking a fight, intentionally consuming foods known to aggravate inflammation for several consecutive days just to make his wounds look worse—all for the sole purpose of antagonizing Jiang Bai.
Jiang Bai
Harnessing the power of the wind dragon, Lin Qi surged through the air like a streak of light, dashing all the way toward the City of Kings.
Xue Wen looked upon her wretched aunt with profound shock, then turned her gaze to Gu Feng, her heart gripped by terror at his merciless visage.
In that contest, Ouyang Qi made his guesses first, followed by Kadulun. By the end, Kadulun had managed to make everyone simply disappear.
"Lee, I've just received notification from the League. Today's match will be broadcast live via satellite in China, so make sure you don't pull any outrageous stunts..." Fresh from receiving the update from the League's governing committee, Old Xi dialed Richard immediately.
A sharp glint flashed through Yeshuang's eyes. Forming her hand into a blade, she exchanged a blow with the old man, then hurled her other hand in a fist toward him. The old man easily intercepted it, and the two traded several more blows, with Yeshuang launching the attacks and the old man strictly defending.
"Young Master Wu, why would someone as worthless as him require your personal attention? I'll break his legs right now and force him to kneel!" The shop clerk, seeing that Lin Qi remained utterly silent, assumed the young man was truly terrified.
Shen Huachan widened his eyes in utter horror. He never imagined that the recent haunting in the streets had actually been caused by Escort Zhao.
The Blood Spear's Mission Hall not only allowed members to accept missions, but also enabled them to submit cultivation inquiries or specific requests to be posted as bounties.
Chu Qiaoruo was stunned for a fraction of a second. By the time she realized she hadn't fallen, the arm around her waist had already pulled away.
Feeling the heavy, substantial weight of the gold and silver in his palm, the eunuch broke into an even wider grin and repeatedly said, "More than enough, consider it done." Handing the imperial decree over to He Jin and exchanging a few casual pleasantries, he proceeded to the banquet with his accompanying carriage and retinue.
"You're having a family gathering, so wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate for me to tag along?" Fu Qiu felt too polite to refuse outright in front of Yang Zhenhang's parents, but after much deliberation, she felt her status didn't quite warrant joining the event.
Once the two were seated side by side, Aunt Chen chimed in, "Move a bit closer, my dear. You two are practically getting married soon, what's there to be shy about?" Jiang Yuanjun self-consciously inched closer to Xu Mo.
"I will definitely come back to rescue you." Uttering the words like a solemn oath, Jill tightly closed his eyes. With numerous British patrols roaming the vicinity, he had little time to indulge in grief.
He had spoken those words to me more than once, but hearing them now, I found them fraught with profound meaning. I wanted to break free from his embrace once again, but his hold was too tight, and his gesture too intimate, sending a sharp pang through my heart and robbing me of the strength to push him away.
Knowing that Chu Qiaojun was considering professional boundaries and didn't want her school colleagues to discover her ties to the Xu family prematurely, Jiang Yuanjun said to her grandmother, "It's just a few months until the semester ends, Grandma. Let Yuanjun-jie decide for herself." With no other choice, her grandmother nodded in agreement.
Sensing a dangerous aura, Xia Yudie and the youth in white each drew upon their respective life-saving treasures to prepare their defenses.
Every tender memory of the days we spent together had turned into a thorn in my heart, piercing me relentlessly and plunging me into agonizing torment.
"Me too. They say making new acquaintances feels like reuniting with old friends—that probably describes us." Jiang Yuanjun smiled as she spoke, thinking that when the right time came, she must tell Teacher Zheng the absolute truth, lest she fail to honor the genuine sincerity he had shown her.
Yet how could that ever be the case? Xu Mo had grown utterly sick of eating out day after day. Since Jiang Yuanjun had arrived, how could he possibly refrain from asking her to cook for him? Therefore, not only did this man return home for dinner today, but he had also come back unusually early.
