Volume One, Chapter 55: Escorting Li Susu to Prison!

At that moment, Yagami’s low voice echoed through the side hall of the Crimson Sun City. Following his words, Lyra and Locke both focused their attention intently on Moons.

“Not on good terms? Of course, except for my brother, few of the royal family get along with him. Naturally, there’s a bit of resentment between us as well. As for your worries—hehe—I’m the one worried about you,” Emily giggled coquettishly, utterly charming.

“It’s simple enough. Why not give you a set of the Artifact Refining Divine Technique? This set should be able to help you,” I said.

The Demon Emperor and the Divine King Aisha had been locked in a stalemate in the sky. Suddenly, a deafening explosion shattered the tension, startling both the Demon Emperor and the Divine King. They both released their grip and retreated to the sidelines to observe the situation below. The Divine King also emerged from the Xing Tian artifact, his divine senses surveying the area beneath.

The ancient demon Bashan, well prepared, could easily halt his advance; however, Gao Shou could not! His only weakness was handing the initiative to the enemy, leaving the timing of any attack entirely up to Bashan.

Yet when Yagami descended from the sky, the charred remains of at least fifty soldiers falling alongside him created a sufficiently intimidating spectacle.

“Qin Siqian, that’s my father’s name!” I shouted loudly, then smiled with satisfaction upon seeing the shock on their faces.

After what felt like a long wait, the command to send Team 7, representing Yagami’s squad, onto the central arena’s main grandstand was finally announced.

Listening to the heartless and humorous remarks, Yue’er couldn’t help but laugh softly, her tension easing somewhat. At that moment, the Dark Demon glanced over but did not approach, instead flying away.

Having undergone the fair trial of the Mount Hua Sword Discussion, the rankings of the Heavenly List experts—especially the top ten—now held absolute prestige.

If it had been any other time, seeing such teamwork would excite everyone. But at this moment, all eyes were on Sun Zhuo; no one wanted to see anyone else score. The instant Sun Zhuo passed the ball, countless faces displayed disappointment, accompanied by sighs of lament.

After parting ways with Old Tang’s rising star, Teng Wei sought out Nan Feng to inform him of his decision to go to America, and to inquire about his contacts there. Previously, their roles had been clear: Nan Feng was responsible for tracking Chu Mofan, while he and Mu Xia protected Mai Qi.

Sun Zhuo, however, wished to savor the bitterness of defeat—not out of masochism, but to use it as motivation for the upcoming rematch.

Back when he was a cook, working at a street food stall, he never imagined his dishes would one day be hailed as heavenly—though that was partly due to the superior, pure, and unpolluted ingredients.

I tugged at the corner of my mouth, saying nothing. After walking about a hundred meters, the path suddenly opened up into a truly natural cave. Jagged rocks rose sharply around, some crossing horizontally, uneven and unpolished.

With that, the car roared away from the Bo Xing Building’s entrance. Lu Chengxi held An Nuan’s hand as they ran upstairs. Once there, he stopped, cupped her face in both hands, and kissed her.

“What? What do you mean? A date? Who’s going on a date?” Qian He’s eyes sparkled with excitement as Zhen Liang began to explain.

Hearing Wen Rui’s mind filled with thoughts of her husband, Feng’s anger flared. Was it really necessary to be like this for a man? She stayed home as a full-time wife, preparing three meals a day for him.

Bb fanned her own face with her hand, her eyes darting around. Ruan Yu stared at her with a half-smile, the corner of his lips teasing.

The person Jiu Di rescued on the road was obviously no good—a shame given that handsome face.

Though the two chatted and laughed lightly, Ye Nuanxue had already sensed that something significant would happen tonight. After all, Miss Rouge had warned her of danger ahead, and Ye Nuanxue’s instincts had never deceived her. If her intuition said danger was coming, then danger was indeed imminent.

Still, she made sure to call Wang Daqing and the others, telling them not to worry—she likely wouldn’t return for another two or three days.

“As someone who’s been through it, I just want to remind you: guard your heart well!” Liu Xia said earnestly.

Meanwhile, Peng Lu struck down with his stick—not on the dog’s head, but on its belly.

Prince Li was somewhat moved seeing her like this but asked with concern, “What about the children? Are they settled?”

Qiao Meijin could naturally see Sheng Ranran’s intentions. But at present, Sheng Ranran’s decision would not harm her either. She agreed.

“No, this is different from the others,” Xia Anduo said, cradling the hairpin like a precious treasure.

“Seems like there’s a name that keeps appearing, something called Muxin…” Mengmeng frowned.

Yi Yao had three black lines on her forehead, staring speechlessly at the smug Li Luo. Xiao Yulin was at a loss for words too—the girl’s tongue seemed to have no bounds anymore, saying whatever came to mind.
