Volume 1, Chapter 50: I, Cold and Merciless

The aphrodisiac Gu is an auxiliary Gu insect which cannot be obtained through awakening, but only through secret realms.

Since Nalan Luo's remains were still kept here, Gu Youran had already analyzed and calculated all the countless possibilities in her heart the moment she learned that Shen Lie was staying and guarding this place with him.

However, on this issue, he had no retreat whatsoever. Since he was the one who brought in this project, he had to urge the enterprise to install pollution control equipment simultaneously and increase environmental protection investments. Otherwise, once severe pollution was caused, how could he ever endure such public condemnation and infamy?

"Oh, then I am truly honored!" As Sun Fengzhao was thinking to himself, Long Ying had already taken the token and opened up a curtain of light.

"Properly handle Old Geng's body." Just as Qin Boqian gave this instruction to Qian Hongwei, his subordinate Jiang Yingyang came running inside, looking utterly distraught.

"Grandfather, that's not what I meant at all. I just meant how is it that you have the time to call me?" Luo Zhiyuan quickly explained with an ingratiating smile.

Returning to the Changchun Palace, where a biting chill permeated the surroundings, she hugged her knees and sat beneath the carved wooden window, staring blankly at the rhombus-shaped mirror on her dressing table.

Even though it was the scorching heat of midsummer, Zhuo Zhijun still shivered involuntarily and pinched Yan Rongrong's hand hard. "Stop saying such terrifying things!" The latter cried out in pain.

He recalled that right outside the wooden door of the elevator platform where they had previously been, there was a fairly deep hole in the corner.

Naruto and Rukia walked along the street like this. Having not visited the Seireitei for over a hundred years, Naruto naturally felt deeply emotional, strolling along as if he were sightseeing.

"Amitabha. Forgive others where you can, benefactor Hu. Tracing it back, he could actually be considered your savior just now," Master Kongwen said, pressing his palms together in a salute toward Hu Tiehua.

He vaguely guessed his elder brother's intentions, but if things were truly done that way, the consequences would be simply unimaginable.

Many members of the Lin family furrowed their brows tightly, unable to comprehend why such a situation had arisen.

This place could easily be treated as one's own home, but unfortunately, it would only exist for fifty days, and he himself could not stay here for the full fifty days.

Afterward, Lei Yuan had personally written a sincere letter to Gu Manying, expressing his heartfelt gratitude for sparing his son's life.

Qian Huiduo tossed the Great Escape to Wei Liang with a look of regret, while keeping all the card's details and descriptions shielded beside him so no one else could see.

Stung by the mocking smile at the corner of Ruochen's lips, the anger in Chen Miaotong's heart was instantly provoked. She raised her eyes to look directly at the other party and blurted out the question.

Zhang Zhenxing had one hand in his pocket while holding Alice with the other, and Su梓沫 (Su Zimo) also went up together to the reception room on the upper floor for their final meeting.

A Soul Adept just stepping through the gates of spiritual power could actually use soul-type martial arts? This was something unheard of, yet Lin Ming had actually executed it. Facts lay before their eyes, speaking louder than any eloquence.

Yet Qiaosuran was like an ephemeral night-blooming cereus; she instantly reverted to silence, the smile fading from the corners of her mouth as she lowered her head, quietly drinking her beverage and eating her food without saying another word, as if the playful and amusing person from just a moment ago had never been her at all.

Without overthinking, Ruochen took out the mere pocket change left by the original body, spent two yuan to take the bus into the city, and then spent another five yuan to enter the locally renowned park.

Man Da lowered his head in bewilderment to look at Keke, whose eyes were still slightly red and swollen as she buried herself in his chest, then looked up again with a flash of understanding as he swept his gaze toward Lan Ruoxin, who was already walking over.

The moment he saw it that night, he knew at a glance that this jade bracelet originated from antiquity and belonged to the same era as the jade pendant in his own possession. Although a terrifying conjecture had crossed his mind, he would rather believe it was false and refused to dwell upon it.
