Chapter 47 Going to the Hospital

Both of them tensed at once, their hearts leaping into their throats.

“Aunt Lan.” Gu Fangyu instinctively seized her hand.

She was afraid the person standing outside the door was Gu Hanchen.

Although Aunt Lan was worried too, she remained calmer than Gu Fangyu.

She patted her hand. “It’s all right. I’ll go and see.”

Gu Fang...

Wu Yu was thinking only of gaining a good brother. He never stopped to consider whether he could actually defeat him. He seemed certain of victory, yet at the same time seemed unwilling to think about it.

“Has their star power already broken the record?” the instructor of Class Six asked at that moment.

Su Yi knew perfectly well that although the essence stones mined from the mountains were plentiful, the Overlord Sect was destined to keep expanding, and that expansion would entail enormous expenses.

“But...” Li Mengwan had wanted to say that Wang Zi and Lu Fei were not the sort of boys who excelled at fighting, and that relying on them was probably futile. Yet she did not voice the thought. If the two of them happened to surpass themselves and prove truly valiant, would that not leave her thoroughly embarrassed?

Fortunately, no one’s attention remained fixed on Qi Xiaoxiao’s jade bracelet for long. There were other matters demanding their notice.

With a wave of his hand, Su Yi sent a surge of vital energy to scatter the blood spat out by the thin, tall, middle-aged man, lest it stain the robe he had just changed into.

“Heh heh! You finally came out. I’ve been waiting for you for ages.” Lin Fan’s enormous black hand reached out and dragged the man who had already been smashed to death behind him. Once everything had been cleaned up, he would return and search the corpse properly.

If all four first-rate martial artists had gone all out from the beginning, he would have been in trouble. He could only first show weakness, waiting for the perfect opportunity to bring down all four of them.

Faced with his parents’ hints, Xu Feng fled as though pursued. Naturally, after dinner he was supposed to go out for a walk, but at that very moment he happened to receive a call from a friend.

Since they were going underwater this time, the members of the Demon Sect did not possess enough spiritual power to move with ease beneath the surface, so the Demon Lord had not brought them along.

“Then should Xin Ye come with us?” Long Yuji asked. Since everything had become clear, why did the captain still have Pink Dragon torment Xin Ye so severely? He had assumed she meant to break Xin Ye’s psychological defenses and force more information out of her, but now that no purpose seemed to remain, there was no need for it.

“Ah, it’s fortunate that I have you.” Sitting inside the carriage, Ye Huang carefully sorted the several receipts in her hands.

“Is that really true?” If so, it could hardly be better. The Lord of the Five Elements Alliance was practically the king of the Five Elements Kingdom, and the enormity of that power was irresistibly enticing.

“What are you doing?” Mo Ji asked in astonishment. But Ye Huang shoved him aside, twisting him around with effortless force. Then she pressed down behind him and bound his arm with a rope.

When the sun finally revealed half its face, it abruptly abandoned its earlier sluggishness and sprang whole from the surface of the sea in almost an instant. Ten thousand rays of rosy light burst forth, piercing the crimson clouds.

“We’re here. Do you still not want to get off the plane?” Yan Yixin’s rich baritone, lowered to a murmur, carried an even more pronounced metallic resonance.

“Xiaoqing is fine! Perhaps I really did see it wrong after all. In that case, let’s continue forward.” Qin Yi’s expression remained unchanged; Wang Hao’s mockery had not angered him in the slightest.

Nearly two more months passed before he was summoned by his teacher once again. This time, he received an unexpected piece of good news. Out of a desire to nurture talent, his teacher had personally applied on his behalf for a graduate-school recommendation with full tuition remission.

Yinzhen paid no attention and casually ordered, “Someone, escort the Eighth Prince to Consort Yu’s residence. Consort Ning, you may withdraw.”

Everyone acknowledged the order.
