Chapter Forty-Two: Affection

To avoid exposing her destination, Yin Nian chose not to drive but instead took a taxi to the meeting place with Yan Ming.

Today, Yin Nian dressed in a stylish yet casual manner, wearing light makeup that made her look much more refreshed.

She felt an inexplicable sense of anticipation about this meeting. She convinced herself it was the hope for progress in the case, hoping Yan Ming would bring good news. But deep down, she also harbored a subtle longing for Yan Ming himself—an undeniable truth that she simply wanted to see him.

Upon arriving at the agreed location, Yin Nian walked a loop on a nearby path, making sure no one was following her. Only then did she enter an old street, where foot traffic was sparse and the environment serene. The street was quaint and steeped in nostalgia.

At the end of the old street, Yin Nian found a small shop named Ruofeng.

Despite that, Song Ankang was already quite satisfied; he was only threefold away from elevating the Demon Disintegration Secret Technique to the sixth-grade celestial art level. Once achieved, it would undoubtedly enhance his combat abilities and bring him greater benefits.

Fang Qihua and Situ Guo pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement. Chu Haoran’s analysis was quite reasonable, leaving no room for argument.

On the tram back to Shangye, Saijo Kazuto's heart was remarkably calm. Quietly, he kept his hands in his pockets, his masked face revealing only a pair of piercing black eyes that seemed to captivate the soul.

After Mu Juehan left, Lin Yangyang cried inconsolably in the café. She had thought she finally witnessed Mu Juehan’s change of heart, only to discover that he had contracted AIDS.

Hong Ni twitched her lips, shot me a scolding glance, and snapped, “You fool, you’ll regret not choosing me later!” With that, she swayed her slender waist and left.

“Liuli, don’t talk nonsense!” Yucheng shot me an irritated look and then sat back down.

There was, however, some disappointing news: the animation itself was poorly done. One could tell just by reading the dialogue.

An Yao only relaxed the instant she recognized Xia’s voice, tears bursting forth like a dam breaking. She had believed she could hold them back, but they unbidden flowed freely. The sense of safety that came from escaping the demon’s clutches wrapped around her instantly, making it impossible to pretend any longer.

The core of the rule artifacts we gave you bears the imprint of our original universe. With enough of these rule artifacts, they can fuse with the laws of that cosmic sea.

At this press conference, some compared two films, saying Chu Xuanchi was a rising star whose aura rivaled that of the international superstar Nangong Lie.

The shouting patrolmen finally spotted Ye Yan and Cao Lin. The five seated officers all straightened, lowered their heads, and fell silent.

Lin Tao said, “Collect the blood samples, remove those guilty of serious crimes, then report to the authorities and alert the media. The American people need to know who has been sowing discord and hatred between humans and mutants, provoking the wrath of the Demon Realm.”

The opposing Eight Banners, realizing the newcomers were not allies, promptly turned their horses back, with 500 steeds following closely behind.

Not to mention the prince, how many emperors have died under mysterious circumstances? Qin Wan would never give Qin Zheng any chance.

“Jingyin, immediately lead a medical squad and some others to assist the villagers, and escort them safely to Konoha,” Tsunade ordered.

Suppressing Su Wo’s words would only make him resentful. So, why not try another approach—grant him a royal title, make him a feudal lord? The fiefdom would be remote and independent, beyond anyone’s control. What harm could it do?

As for Lu Ming, he sighed helplessly. The situation was beyond his control. It seemed necessary to escalate the matter to higher authorities, but the first call he made was to Lin Feng.

Zi Yunye nodded at her serious demeanor. “Girl, do you think my parents might still be alive?” As he spoke, his hand unconsciously reached for his chest, where a purple jade pendant hung.

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed through Bear City. This roar carried a barely perceptible spiritual vibration that spread outward. The zombies outside the city trembled at the sound and, astonishingly, fell silent in unison. Even the high-level undead beasts surrounding Zhao Tianyu ceased their movements and gave up resistance.
