31 Meeting Again

Just as she was immersed in her sorrow, footsteps suddenly sounded behind her. Shi Xi turned around in a start, catching the man’s dark, cold eyes off guard.

The stream outside her window was clear, yet quite deep and filled with waterweeds. After searching for a long time, she could see nothing but the lush green plants.

Brother Biao puffed out his cheeks, scanning from top to bottom, until he finally couldn't hold it in and sprayed a mouthful of tea. Most of it landed on Shar-Pei’s crotch, with only a few droplets splashing onto the red wedding invitation.

While still some distance from Mo Jiangye, Ye Erruo jumped directly into his arms. He caught her steadily, a fierce, burning intensity surging in his scarlet eyes.

With so many commoners present, was he really trying to shift the blame onto these innocent people?

Alas, there is a Great Dao in heaven and earth that manifests creation and restraint. The origin of the earth is an existence that can never be shaken by the罡 winds; otherwise, among the thousands of mountain ranges in the world, would not all the peaks that pierce the clouds be destroyed by these winds?

Emperor Tianhua knew with his toes that the eldest prince must have intentionally molested Yan Jiaojiao, which was why he fell victim to the itching powder.

She bowed her head and kissed the cold infant. A single tear fell onto the baby's forehead, then vanished into his dark, lustrous hair.

"Who are you?" the delicate, soft voice asked again, filled with curiosity. Having been here for so many years, it had never seen outsiders; thus, even after discovering their presence, it had remained silent.

With a "snap," the hairpin in her hand fell to the ground, and Baili Yue’s neatly coiled hair cascaded down naturally.

She had received her first month’s salary—over five thousand yuan after taxes. For Luo Yao, it was a significant amount, and she figured it would be enough to cover her various university expenses through this part-time job.

However, just as Zhang Rang had finished drawing a large number of purple cards and was preparing to target the blue ones, he felt endless energy surging around his body.

She shared her thoughts with Yi Qiu without avoiding Yin Di, merely asking her not to interrupt.

Qin Junyan, however, was only wearing a trench coat. Knowing his robust constitution and lack of sensitivity to the cold, Luo Yao said nothing.

Exiting the prison gates, three carriages were waiting. Several embroidered-uniform guards shoved Zhang Yue into the middle carriage, while Daoist Qingmu took a few guards into the lead carriage, with the remaining guards occupying the last one to bring up the rear.

Ultimately, You Luo felt that Yi Qiu was a decent teammate and perhaps even a decent person. But now, seeing him struggle and die silently before her eyes was not a pleasant experience.

Ling Si wondered whether she was this unguarded with everyone, or if it was only with him.

Liu Lang really had no time to fuss with Li Ying at the moment; if it was a plan for three, so be it.

Tong Liya had never seen someone fail to seize an opportunity placed right before them. She quickly urged, "Hey, this chance is rare. It’s no different from a coal tycoon pampering his mistress."

But this image did not last long; every so often, the radiance would suddenly dissipate, revealing a human form, as if all sophistication had been washed away.

The more pressing matter now was to deal with these black tigers! He had to do it while the light sword was still in his hand, for he did not know when it might vanish.

Water droplets streamed down her arm, hitting the ground and splashing into beads. This scene reflected in Leng Xuexin’s eyes, repeating over and over again, as if a thousand times, until the entire world consisted only of the scene of the splashing droplets. The next moment, her vision blurred, and her consciousness faded.

Diamond slammed a palm onto his son’s head: "Is your brain missing a gear? Who talks about their mother like that?" Yet, a smile hung on his lips; it seemed he was quite proud of his own prowess in that regard.

He ignored the other unknown number. If the caller had something important, they would naturally call back, and right now, he had to attend to his urgent business.

At this moment, all facilities and personnel of the four-nation coalition surgical hospital located at the epicenter were reduced to ashes.

"We all know that Deputy Commander Shi was once your superior, so we thought it might be more appropriate if you were the one to make this recommendation," Xing Jie explained.

"One day, we father and son shall meet again." Li Chengfeng finally revealed a faint smile as he spoke to Li Qing, though the voice sounded so helpless, so ethereal.

The water heater in the East Mansion used a split-design, which was highly sensitive to water temperature, but its flaw was that someone had to be outside to help the person bathing adjust the heat.

However, he had clearly underestimated the power of the Nine Nether Pagoda. The spirit beasts formed from the spiritual power not only failed to provide the slightest obstruction, but were instead absorbed instantly as raw energy by the pagoda. The light of the Nine Nethers extended, and by the time Lin Xiu reacted, he, like Li Jie, had lost all power to resist.

At this moment, all the thunder-fire orbs had taken shape, rapidly spinning in a strange trajectory before exploding violently one by one.

"These flowers—they were just brought in, right?" Tan Fu brushed the pink and white petals, her movements gentle, fearing that too much force might leave a mark.

Seeing that Ye Xiaojiao was about to leave, he quickly called her back, suddenly pulling a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe her face.

Relying on those Epsilon infantry encirclement troops, they were not only unable to breach the camp but were even pushed back by the General.

Seeing their leader taken down in just two moves, the guards turned pale with fright, immediately stopped fighting, and retreated.

That the Great Jing could win this victory was a huge surprise to them, as he had held no hope for it before.

Earning 80,000 in just two months—if he maintained this efficiency in shipbuilding for the whole year, he could earn nearly 500,000 coins.

Finally, in yet another desperate, do-or-die attack, Crewe captured a psychic who had not yet been promoted to a Mind Specialist, learning the basic situation of the world from him.
