Chapter 55 Severing the Ties of Affection

On the second day of the second lunar month, the dragon raises its head.
The moonlight, like frost, paved the bluestone paths of Yuhua Garden.
Xia Qiqi clutched the half-piece of the bronze fish tally, sinking into deep thought.
Half a month had passed since the day the original owner's identity became clear. Chu Hanxiao had granted Xia Qiqi's wish, allowing her to return to Yuhua Garden to recuperate in peace, and had never once come to disturb her.
Yet Xia Qiqi knew in her heart that she could no longer comfortably remain in the Prince Jin's Mansion under the identity of Liu Mingyu.
Over the past half month, she...
The Bai family used to deal in the grain business, controlling the grain shops across the entire southern district of the capital, making them immensely wealthy.
Now it seemed that he could only intensify his cultivation, and upon eventually reaching the Transcendent Realm, he would be able to assist Linglong in restoring her physical body.
The figure in black swayed repeatedly to dodge, only to see the finger force descend and directly pierce through the walls several feet thick. "The Profound Yin Frigid Ice Finger! Are you a member of the Profound Yin Ghost Deity Sect?" the figure in black asked in alarm and doubt.
Xi Yan had only these two cards and no others. Under the gaze of so many eyes around her at that moment, she felt utterly mortified.
Recalling what had just happened, lingering fear gripped her heart, and she instinctively tightened her grip on Li Beiyao's large hand.
"Ha! Good luck goes to me, and dog-shit goes to you! We have to set off. My hand intercepted a communication; the last batch of Loulan Star Bridge staff is also heading to the Norman Star Bridge under the protection of a destroyer detachment." Anna once again displayed her decisive and resolute nature.
"I don't care what method you use; what you promised me must be done. My personal guard has already set off for the Thousand Star Plains. If there really is a situation there, I will have solved a huge problem for you and the Federation," Anna said unceremoniously.
Fu Jiusheng turned her head and glanced at the witness named Ah Niu. Not looking was one thing, but upon looking, she suddenly understood—wasn't this the scumbag who tried to frame Wen Youdao the other day?
"Give me a sniper rifle; I need three minutes to find a suitable shooting position." Tie Xinghan took the initiative to volunteer. Taking on the sniping mission at this moment would carry immense pressure. Everyone ignored Tie Xinghan's request, except for Alex, who turned to look at the man who might potentially become his brother-in-law.
Then, he raised a middle finger. The moment the middle finger appeared, the atmosphere in the arena instantly froze. The two looked at each other, somewhat puzzled. Yet the intense insult and contempt conveyed by it made them extremely uncomfortable.
To put it bluntly, it meant getting along well with them, avoiding conflicts, and then seeing what they had worth learning and adopting it.
However, who knows which cat suddenly used Mango's litter box tonight, leaving Mango's litter box currently being washed, resulting in Mango having no toilet available.
Inside the bamboo house, visible wisps of spiritual energy were endlessly intertwining and nourishing the person lying on the bed. A man clad in black battle robes lay there; though his eyes were closed, an inherent majesty emanated from him, inspiring awe.
That was rightfully my possession, yet you snatched it, and now you put on a magnanimous air letting me pick—am I out of my mind? Tang Qiuxue turned her head and walked away without paying him the slightest heed.
Yet he knew that, given the standards of Xia State intellectuals, they could not comprehend the concepts of molecules and atoms. While compiling the chemistry textbook, he did not know how many brain cells he had killed before finally managing to explain the chemical reactions he knew in simple and easy-to-understand language.
The sudden appearance of Zhao Yao directly startled Coal Ball into jumping, sent Red Packet fainting to the ground, and caused Fishball to make a dash, only to be grabbed by the hind leg and dragged back by Zhao Yao, who possessed the strength of five cats in a flash.
What was a mage's greatest strength? It was a mental power far superior to other classes, honed through years and years of meditation.
"Brother Ren, your eyes..." Unlike the initial green, nor resembling the dark red after his transformation, Eagle Mountain Ren's eyes at this moment were filled with a tyrannical crimson red.
