Volume 1, Chapter 28: The Giantess Helps with the Chores

Despite her past mental confusion and sometimes absurd behavior, Mu Yunyin always saw clearly who treated her with kindness and who harbored ill intentions; her heart was like a polished mirror.

The group charged forward, blades drawn. "Let's fight them to the death!" one Star Cultivator shouted, rushing into the fray. "Even if we die, we’ll drag someone down with us!"

Zixiao looked at everything before her in bewilderment, unable to understand why she had been teleported to this place.

The young master hadn't rested well due to the constant travel over the past few days, yet he had ordered a departure for eight o'clock this morning.

"My fiancée and I are betrothed; there is love between us. What? Is it not even allowed for me to hold my own fiancée?" he said coldly, his tone steady.

"Yunfan, thank you for your hard work. You’ve done me such a great favor; I wouldn't have known what to do without you," he said, patting his shoulder.

Luoluo’s eyes lit up as she stared intently at the pastry and then at Luo Ying. After a moment of hesitation, she took the pastry, gently broke it in two, and handed the other half to Luo Ying.

Wushuang coughed twice to cover his embarrassment, seizing the opportunity to follow Huoyan’s lead.

The doctor Nurse Boers mentioned was the same one who had previously inquired about the progress of Lu Yuting and Jing Yihuan’s relationship.

Although spiritual power could not be channeled in this area, physical techniques remained. Luo Li dodged several of the puppet’s attacks with finesse and landed a whip kick on its neck. The puppet staggered back two steps, but the recoil sent Luo Li flipping backward several times before he could come to a stop.

After walking for the time it takes to burn half a stick of incense, Lin Yi finally entered the inner valley. The surroundings were barren, devoid of any vegetation, let alone ancient ruins or caves. All he saw before him was a lake several hundred meters wide, its surface already frozen over.

It seemed that Bao Yun only relied on him like this when she encountered something distressing. If that were the case, he would rather she relied on him a little less.

Seeing his mother’s flustered state today, and linking it to Jiang Xiu’s words, his heart skipped a beat as a terrifying thought surfaced in his mind.

Inside the Hokage’s office, not only were Tsunade and Senju Nawaki present, but Nara Shikaku was there as well. The three of them were deep in discussion.

Fortunately, those people were not very strong. Wei Rong dispatched them in a few swift moves, and Yu Baoyun took the opportunity to enter the room and lead the person out.

After Feng Yuan confirmed that he had truly washed his face clean, he looked at Qin Ruyun again, confused, only to find that she was no longer looking at him, but had turned her head to gaze at the scenery.

Yun Feiyang navigated the system back to his character information interface and discovered that a new "Constitution" stat had been added.

"I’m asking you, Liu Zifeng! What are you thinking about? Why would we be afraid of you?" Wen Ruoxi said to the puzzled Liu Zifeng, feigning anger.

Later, they found the corpse of the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, in a canyon not far from Sunagakure. Only then did they fully grasp Orochimaru’s conspiracy, but it was already too late. Now, they were overwhelmed by the problem of selecting a Fifth Kazekage.

There are many tropes for "novel launch" announcements—some are about fulfilling dreams, some are about playing the pity card, some are high-profile, and some are low-profile.

Even without hearing him in person, she could imagine him frowning at this moment, speaking in the gentle voice she knew so well.

Upon hearing this, for the first time in his life, Feng Yong slumped into his chair, unable to say a word. He closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

"Then it seems I have overthought it. However, gifts for the Emperor and Empress must naturally be perfect; this is my sincere intention," Feng Yong said indifferently.

The two hugged as a greeting before Wang Qian and his father entered the house, with Lele in charge of closing the door.

I asked Plassvia to walk softly as we slowly approached Dr. Bella’s bedside. He seemed to be in a deep sleep, but his breathing was not as robust as a normal person’s. Instead, it was quite quiet; it seemed he must be very weak at this moment.

But just as they reached the center of the farmland, Shunzi looked back again and was so terrified he nearly fainted. Less than ten meters behind him followed a soul. It didn't walk step by step like they did, but drifted, for the water surface beneath its feet remained calm. It didn't look like a person walking at all.

Because she felt the uncle’s gaze lingering on them, Lu Jiaqi’s nerves, which had just begun to relax, tightened once more. Despite the explanations she had prepared, she ended up just staring at the uncle and stammering, unable to offer any real justification.

The young men did not fall for Wu Di’s trick, remaining determined to kill him at any cost.

Before he left that day, he clenched one fist tightly while gently holding her delicate hand with the other, his deep eyes fixed on her.

"Then, venerable senior, regarding the restoration using your own remains—if your remains have been accidentally destroyed over these many years and have turned to mere bones, can you still be resurrected?" It was a chance to learn something and kill time; it would be a waste not to.

Thus, it finally shed its "Nothingness" state and confronted the two with its true strength. This also proved that these two humans in black indeed possessed some skill.

Gude lunged at Dao Jian Ru Meng once again... but since he now knew Gude’s true nature, he could not let him go. It seemed he would not willingly divulge the intelligence, so he had no choice but to capture him first.

Lin Xi lit up her phone screen and immediately saw Yun Yang sitting quietly on the sofa in a white bathrobe, his eyes rimmed with red, as if he had been crying.

Yun Yiren watched the figure of Fersen. Seeing him at the hotel entrance, she was just about to approach when, out of nowhere, a black car pulled up behind her, and several large bodyguards stepped out.

"The person you should be thanking is him. Yun Yiren, the debt you owe him can never be repaid in a lifetime." Qin Jianyuan left, but before he went, he instructed her to stay and watch over him until he woke up.

Although Hong Yun had a top-grade innate spiritual treasure to protect him, his cultivation was a notch weaker than Kunpeng’s, and he was suppressed by the Beiming Grand Formation. Caught off guard, the vast clouds of red sand began to noticeably diminish before long.

Cao Fengzhen was still grumbling incessantly. Unable to stand his wife’s nagging, Jian Guoqiang threw up his hands and walked out the door.

Suddenly, Yu Caixuan walked forward in surprise and grabbed a lighter from a side railing. She examined it closely and found it was still quite clean, with no dust on it.

"Leave it to me." It was just a lock. Jian Ning walked behind the idol, passing the spot where the sacrifices had lain, and discovered a strange totem revealed on the ground—it was exactly the same as the pose they had just been arranged in.
