Volume 1, Chapter 38: The Valiant Youth

Ye Xiang walked in, feeling embarrassed. Perhaps out of guilt for having wronged him, she left the door open. The person who once sat high above in the seat of honor was now herself, while the person who once knelt humbly below was now Li Yanran.

Chen Yuhan’s face flushed red, and she made a move to rise, but how could Ye Jinxiao let her off when he was in such a rare, good mood? The physician and all the commoners who had just witnessed the scene gradually realized they had been deceived, so they called for the physician to go up and examine the situation. The status of the mistress in the backyard and in the Marquis's heart had never changed; she had no need to concern herself with a concubine who had lost the Marquis's favor over a decade ago and lacked any background.

"Thank you for the Emperor's praise." Chen Jianhong felt that his own face had gained some luster, and his mood brightened considerably.

The ordeal was not over yet. Taking advantage of Ye Chen’s injury, Yue Bumian shook off Mu Cheng. Seizing the opportunity, he kicked Ye Chen hard in the ribs, sending him flying.

After some deliberation, Zhao Qingshan called Shunzi, warning him not to bring anyone else. That fellow was overjoyed, likely happier than he had been during his first time holding hands with Nangong Siyi.

"Water Dragon Bullet Technique!" Ye Chen manipulated the elements like a master; a lifelike water dragon was summoned before his eyes. With a sudden wave of his hand, the dragon surged toward Li Kui.

"Do you know why you were born a little earlier than me? I think I owe you an apology." Chen Qiqi looked at him with a slight smile, her eyes narrowing.

Ji Yu was not the only one who felt this way; the other three had also noticed that the aura around Ji Mo was off. However, they hadn't found a suitable opportunity to ask, and now that Ji Yu had brought it up, everyone’s gaze turned toward Ji Mo simultaneously.

She certainly knew Sister-in-law Tian’s character; framing others and using others’ influence were her specialties! Even if she hadn't done it, she would still pin it on her, and those in the Tian family would never speak up for her.

In an instant, the entire venue fell into silence. No one raised a placard, and no one dared to speak another word.

A sensation of warmth and tenderness melted on his lips, and he squinted his eyes, thoroughly enjoying Yun Fuxiao’s ministrations. If the terrifying battle just moments ago—where every punch shook the heavens and every blade defined a world—could be considered as not using full strength, what would it look like when they truly gave it their all?

"Let’s hurry out and tell the Holy Mother and Venerable Mu Jing this good news! To keep them from grieving!" A-Yu said calmly, then flicked her long tail, ready to leave.

Perhaps, if she hadn't left, if she hadn't let go back then, she might have been as happy as Lu Man was now.

Han Wen heard Chen Yu’s words, and though she said nothing on the surface, she secretly took them to heart.

You are the dignified ruler of a nation; is it really necessary to be so petty over a single plate of grapes? Besides, she only dared to ask because she considered them family.

Even if Jian Shenwei might not necessarily become the Sea God, his involvement would undoubtedly stir up the situation, making many factors uncertain.

The Four Hundred Flower Fairies were devastated, wailing in misery. Xiao Yingying clutched the corpse of Hua Xiangrong, crying as if her heart would break.

In truth, Tang Yu had no deep research into the background stories of the so-called League of Heroes, nor did he understand the power discrepancies or backstories of each hero. The young man also knew that the League of Heroes interface residing within him likely did not rank these heroes based on their power or lore.

However, to avoid the trouble of being recognized and asked for photos or autographs, he still put on his sunglasses.

His gaze shifted to Benghuai, who also shook his head; Ci Ao did the same, and as for Xiaohua, it went without saying.

Ma Zhe had no choice but to hold her tighter, enjoying the fragrance, softness, and elasticity of her body. Qin Fengming stopped struggling, and the two embraced tightly. Ma Zhe let his hands wander over her back, feeling a surge of passion that made his breathing grow rapid.

Deng Yu pushed open the city gate and saw a dozen trolls lunging at him. Just as he was about to strike, a dozen pale, thin objects shot out from above with a "chi-chi-chi" sound, piercing the trolls directly. The trolls stumbled forward a few steps before falling one by one, blood flowing from their necks.

The dragon let out a furious roar. It intended to snap the chains on its body all at once. At this moment, it was incomparably powerful and equally confident.

"Fellow Daoist, I wonder what you have decided?" Si Wuyai stared intently at Wang Fan and said coldly.

Li Zhichen saw that Mei Hanxia’s cheeks were rosy, as beautiful as flowers and jade. Every smile and every frown was moving, and her deep affection for him was plain to see. His heart stirred, and he leaned over to kiss her. It was a momentary impulse, and he pulled away as soon as their lips touched.

"In every aspect." Cheng Nuo said calmly as he poured some diced mushrooms into the pot and covered it.

"Uncle-master, why?" Luo Chen looked at the Ancestor Wudao, a strange expression appearing on his face. The Ancestor Wudao chuckled inwardly at Luo Chen’s expression, then began to speak with him.

Thinking of this in a fit of pique, Xiao Qiang turned his head to glance at Xu Chuan, who was still lying in the back seat asleep. Without a word, he got out of the car, opened the door, dragged him out, and dumped him on the ground.

Yue Ye thought for a moment and asked, "You are not at Ziqing Mountain, so why are you here?" Yue Ye himself couldn't explain how he had obtained the Luoxia Token, and if Dong Ling kept questioning him like this, he might accidentally let something slip. Thus, he hurried to divert Dong Ling’s attention.

Gongye Haomiao stood there, clearly seeing her body tremble slightly the moment she saw him.

He couldn't take it anymore; seeing the terrifying monster before him, Uranus’s nerves were truly on the verge of collapse.

Lu Xiu said without looking back while playing his game, "I know this Tang Hucheng is supposed to be the boss of the second year now. I heard he’s quite the big shot."
