Chapter 70: The Unerring Hunter

Qinghuan had left. In these past few days, Li Qingyun found herself listless, unable to muster enthusiasm for anything she did. Her mind wandered endlessly, and she even dreamed that Qinghuan had been beaten in the Li household.

To distract her, Gu Tingzhou suggested they go up the mountain to hunt game. Li Qingyun was overjoyed at the prospect. Gu Tingzhou’s leg no longer needed the support of a crutch; he could walk on his own now, looking much recovered. A trip to the mountains should pose no problem. She breathed a sigh of relief—thankfully, it was nothing serious. After all, she didn’t possess the abilities of the female leads in novels, who could perform surgeries and miraculous treatments.

Gu Tingzhou made preparations for the hunt in advance.

Perhaps, what Ye Xiuming did was precisely to drag Ye Xiu Cheng down with him, so he could secure his position as the head of the Ye family.

Beads of blood dripped along the golden hairpin onto the ground, blossoming into tiny red flowers. Yet, this only served to highlight the flawless beauty of Jade Wuxia.

Seeing the retreat in these people’s eyes, there was little change in Qin Ming’s expression; his gaze remained as cold as ever.

A sudden “clang”—Jade Wuxia, too busy scanning his surroundings, failed to notice what was at his feet and accidentally kicked something hard. He slowly lowered his head, his emerald eyes as clear as jade, now shrouded in a mist that added a touch of dreamlike haze.

During the time he was with Shen Ya, he had never scolded or beaten her, not even spoken a harsh word.

Perhaps it was because Ye Hua was too agitated—after uttering his last word, a metallic taste filled his mouth, and without warning, a torrent of blood burst forth.

The private room upstairs was indeed exquisite. Open the window, and you could see a river encircling Jiangcheng, with its banks lined with trees and flowers. Even in the depths of winter, the view remained enchanting.

Her proud bosom, slender waist, and rounded hips—every part of her exuded a fatal allure.

She had no intention of letting the brief trust she had gained after taking a knife for the Crown Prince drift away so easily.

But he had no time to rest. After tending to his wounds, he immediately summoned the elders to prepare for the removal of the seal on Shen Ya.

They fell silent, waiting a while longer. To Lin Buchi’s surprise, everyone actually arrived today.

At the same time, he remained vigilant, constantly surveying his surroundings for dangers lurking in the night.

Zhou Ji’s father, Zhou Dexing, was one of the twenty-four generals of Huaixi and the oldest among the founding commanders. Though his power was immense and his actions sometimes questionable, none of his misdeeds were too grave. Coupled with his illustrious military achievements, the emperor held him in high regard and often granted him protection.

Around that time, Chef Wang was also thinking of joining the factory through his Shandong cuisine mentor and sought advice from He Yuzhu.

“Honored Prince, you have indeed gained some understanding since you first arrived here, and you’ve matured a little. But you’re still a long way from true maturity. From the current situation, our nation holds a slight advantage, but what the future holds—no one can truly say.”

The Lou family had just gone through a great upheaval. If Xu Fugui went to the station now, it might well mean sending all four members of the Xu family straight to the Dragon King.

[…Was that just a few words? That whip nearly struck me in the face.] Lin Buchi thought to himself, speechless.

At that moment, countless four-dimensional aircraft surged forward, but stopped before the four-dimensional beings. Then, just as the masked man hoped, F37R burst out from one of the crafts, launching a fierce combination of H9 and G9 attacks, sending the four-dimensional monsters flying and forcing them into retreat again and again.

Lian Yunsheng had realized this old man’s identity was suspect, but couldn’t pinpoint the issue. Whenever he asked passersby, he was met with only contempt.

The previous retreat had been humiliating enough; this time, he resolved not to take a single step back and to fight this detestable enemy before him with all his strength.

“And why should I tell you?” Purple Rain Butterfly stopped, her sparkling eyes fixed on him.

Five hundred li away, in a hidden valley, Ruan Thirteen and the others couldn’t help but look up, gazing in the direction of Wanlong City.

And so, Andre became the sacrificial pawn—almost instantly, his blood vessels seemed to burst, his skin flushing red and purple before returning to normal.
