Volume One, Chapter 47: What I Desire, You Cannot Give

“... Are they really planning to use me to lift his curse?”

Isn’t he still alive? Yet they’re already talking about paying with a life. Besides, if she married Qi Rui and that could bring him back to consciousness, wouldn’t they be worried she might stab him a few times?

It’s utterly absurd, just the thought of it is ridiculous.

Ling Dan saw Wen Li was taking it lightly and said seriously, “I’m not joking. Your brother, your parents, and your grandfather were all in the next ward just now. I overheard them arguing fiercely outside the door. In the end, Qi Min proposed a solution: since what’s done is done, why not have Qi Rui marry you? That way, the two families won’t harbor grudges later on...”

Seeing Wu Mei nod, Du Shang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If she hadn’t agreed, things would have been difficult. At that point, he would have had no choice but to act decisively. But now, this was naturally the best outcome — a perfect solution.

Qin Shitong stepped forward and saw the door was locked outside. Since Baobao hadn’t returned, they must still be together.

Then Ye Di emerged from behind Jiang Nian, launching his ultimate move immediately. But at the very moment Ye Di unleashed his ultimate, a surprising scene unfolded before the crowd.

Whether at the Imperial Pass or among the foreign troops, nothing was visible. No one knew what had happened at the heart of the battlefield.

Back when her drug addiction flared up, Guo Yunni sometimes deliberately withheld her medicine. Only when she was well taken care of could she obtain the drugs.

“The closest national troops are probably the Central Army stationed in Yingshan and Luotian counties. Intelligence shows there are two regiments stationed there. The nearest regiment is still over a hundred miles from Yuexi County, and most of the route is mountainous and difficult to traverse,” Zhao Ningtao said thoughtfully.

Xiao He was destined to sit and drink today. As for Han Xin, his heart was full of anxiety and helplessness. Chancellor Xiao sighed inwardly and silently prayed that Han Xin could endure the humiliation for a few more days and avoid causing trouble.

Although talking about money seems vulgar, it’s precisely because of this mundane thing that people work for you. There’s no denying that this common incentive can increase motivation.

However, as he continued to act so slyly, Ye Di on the other side wasn’t in any hurry to clear the troops. Chu Baiyi was willing to use his Q skill to last-hit, and Ye Di didn’t stop him. After all, your mana will run low eventually. When that time comes, Ye Di was confident he wouldn’t dare keep playing like this.

The Gang Sword and Earth Fiend Sword must be combined to unleash their power through yin and yang synergy. Fortunately, Man Xiang and I complement each other perfectly, so together we can wield the sword’s formidable force. What chance do you still have?

The fat man had just been rescued by Tang Fei, and his face turned serious as he spoke. Though proud, he was not one to underestimate the enemy. He had been at the forefront earlier and was nearly sucked inside by that hidden power—he had felt its terrifying might.

“Meiniang? What’s wrong? Is something bothering you?” Li Yunfei casually found a spot on the first floor as before but noticed Wu Meiniang hadn’t touched the food on the table. He worried she might still be haunted by some lingering shadow in her heart.

At the center of the great calamity of the chaotic heavens, a colossal giant roared skyward, swinging its massive fists and stirring terrifying chaotic ancient energy that drowned out the passing laws. With earth-shattering power, it struck toward Yun Guo.

“Speak. What news do you have?” The demon prince was also troubled by Lin Jie’s excessive actions.

The Grim Reaper, Bloodstained Madness, and the Autumn Dawn Dynasty were all located in the northeast of the Radiant World. As the aging Autumn Dawn Dynasty and the rising powers of Grim Reaper and Bloodstained Madness inevitably clashed, I have no doubt about this. So there were no great surprises now.

Ji Shangnan rushed desperately into the street, shouting loudly, but it seemed utterly useless! Luo Jinshi couldn’t hear him at all! She was like a soulless corpse.

It wasn’t until the black light closed in within ten feet that Zhen Yuzi reacted. Shocked, he hurried to activate the ginseng tree above, emitting streams of golden light to shield himself all around.

“Let’s go, let’s take a look,” Yun Guo and the two others mounted their flying devices and sped toward the calamity cloud. After a moment, the three approached and saw four re-specialized players guarding a strongman undergoing a tribulation.

Upon hearing this, Tong Tian’s expression changed immediately. After a moment of thought, he looked toward the crowd below, but all of them wore confused expressions, clearly not understanding what he meant.

“Ji Changfeng’s breakthrough must be reported to the organization immediately. We need to dispatch experts to assist,” Xiao Xinjie said solemnly.

Touching his chin, Qin Feng suddenly turned his gaze to Yan Liang, who was still floating in the air, and a smile appeared on his face.

Yet as the words left his mouth, Li Yan’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. He recalled a certain possibility.

“Hmm.” Yu Zhu answered verbally but sneered inside. If Seiler passed the order, he’d march westward with troops. Heh heh, the infantry commander he just got might vanish without a trace again.

From the day of the proposal until now, two days had passed. During those days, Qiu Xuan stayed with his family, neither training nor going out. The border situation weighed on his mind but was not urgent, so he stayed home to accompany his family.

Looking back at the other side’s dilapidated appearance, Su Guosheng couldn’t understand how this “few-room” real estate agency made far more annual profit than one of his listed companies.

The Walkers “calmly” saw off the Rockets. For the last week of the month, they were starting another road trip.

“No need! I can do it myself!” Heize Quan shook his head quickly, thinking, isn’t this basically a couple’s bath?

“How many people are in the territory now?” Qin Feng only knew that hundreds of refugees had been pouring in.

“Listen carefully, and I’ll tell you something that’ll scare you out of your wits. I am Zheng Hong. My father is Zheng Ji, the county official at the Princess Pingyang’s residence,” Zheng Hong said.
