Preparing for Pregnancy
Perhaps because he had been with Miss Huang for too long, Feng Zizai’s traditionally straw-like unkempt hair was now neatly tied behind his head. His beard was no longer as thick as before, clearly having been regularly trimmed.
Although he tended to draw a blank on almost everything he was asked, Tang Qing always believed that Tang Zhan would not arrest someone for no reason.
With a sweep of both hands, Ye Feng summoned eight spirit talismans of various colors from the Bilan Spirit Ring. Between the fingers of his open hands, they transformed into eight fourth-grade spirit talismans of different hues. Soul power surged through Ye Feng’s hands and poured into the eight spirit stones, causing the spirit seals on the eight talismans to emit a bright glow.
As the sun sank further to the west, Flower Jueyu, whose eyes were slightly red and swollen, cast a cold glance at the person peeking through the door frame of the old apothecary’s backyard—watching Shui Juexu and Lu Juexing—before vanishing with a double whistle, utilizing her lightness skill to flee out of the backyard.
Xiang Chuan nodded. He had already witnessed Tang Luo’s terrifying martial prowess last time, and even he had to surrender and yield in admiration.
Su Jue slowly closed his eyes and began to sense the presence of his thunder avatar, after which he once again released the tip of his master sword.
In the Jiang residence, no one’s orders were obeyed except for Jiang Zhe’s. With this departure, Taoxing was bound to perish without a doubt.
"This..." Xiao Wuxian immediately wore a troubled expression, because he did not know when the window had shattered, nor did he know how long the gold-inlaid corpse had been exposed to the wind, making it impossible to determine the time of death.
How on earth should one describe such a unique and stinging odor? As it sprayed onto Fatty's face, his broad, flat face instantly became paralyzed like a patient with facial palsy. His two eyes turned red and swollen, and tears streamed down uncontrollably. His large mouth split open all the way to his earlobes, and white foam continuously bubbled from the corners of his lips.
However, there was also good news. At the very least, Lu Linyuan had fulfilled her mission, becoming an ordinary person, and had finally reunited with Lu Tongfei. After being separated for so many years, brother and sister were finally together again, and this joy was deeply comforting.
The twenty-first layer of the Extreme Pupil Light, enhanced by the stellar primordial liquid of at least one hundred billion cells, remained his ultimate trump card. As Li Yu moved forward, he reviewed that battle. Although that thin male cultivator was at the fifth-grade Star Emperor level, he still could not withstand the full-force strike of the twenty-first layer of the Extreme Pupil Light.
Gu Bei agreed, taking a broom to sweep the house inside and out. By the time he finished, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. Covered in sweat, he lay down on the deep yellow wooden floor. A breeze blew in from outside the window, carrying the warm-toned light, as he raised his eyes to survey every corner of the house.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door. It was Zhang Qiguang. Dinner was ready, and he came to call the two of them out to eat.
One had to admit that within the Dragon Team, aside from their formidable combat capabilities, there was something even more covetable: their hot pot.
After Steward Shen settled down the various disciples of the Alchemy Hall, Li Yu handed him a storage device and said, "Steward Shen, inside this storage device are cultivation resources and some medicinal herbs. Supervise your junior brothers well in their cultivation and have them appropriately review their alchemy techniques."
Gu Bei had no spare cash on hand; all his funds were tied up in expanding the high-end building broadcasting network business. Xinhui Optoelectronics owed over ten million, and there were still several million in unpaid debts for the acquisition of Xinghua Vinegar owed to Xinghua Village. How could he possibly come up with the money to pay such a high demolition compensation? Even if he had money, Gu Bei would have used it to expand the high-end building broadcasting network instead.
Then Ye Chuxia walked up to me with hurried steps, snatched the check her mother had given me right out of my hand, tore it to shreds with a rustling sound, and tossed my one million bucks away like trash.
There were no guards collecting entrance fees anymore; everyone could enter the county government office to handle their affairs. Zhou Zhong and Han Li also drove their car inside and proceeded to find the relevant department to process their paperwork.
I couldn't quite handle that gaze, so I had no choice but to look at Lu Tongfei. Since we were here, I suppose I should at least greet her, right? I immediately walked over to her spot. But when Lu Tongfei saw me approaching, she instantly lowered her head, looking as though she were terrified of making eye contact with me.
"Hmph, since you are ungrateful, don't blame me for being ruthless." Cai Mao glared at Wei Yi, said no more, and launched an attack on him.
It wasn't until about a quarter of an hour later that a light finally appeared ahead, and upon seeing this light, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
"Barren Forest?" Confusion filled his eyes, unable to fathom why she would suddenly utter such words.
Misu froze all over as a scene suddenly flashed through her mind: that wealthy couple had come to the Red Heart Orphanage, and at first glance, the child they had indeed taken a fancy to was the tall and stubborn Misu.
Ren Quansheng had reduced Father An to such a state, yet he still dared to speak those words to her now. Was Ren Quansheng certain he wasn't trying to play the comedian?
Although the resource allocations distributed by the Supreme Dao Academy to each outer courtyard disciple were not lavish, they shouldn't have been this meager either. After all, six medicinal pills—one a day for a month of thirty days, meaning they could only take one pill every five days—what kind of effect could that possibly have?
Hearing this, Xiang Xintian abruptly sat up straight with wide eyes, looking as though she had been startled.
The rich fragrance so close to her nose made Xiangju somewhat nauseous. She forced back her discomfort and nodded, upon which Tao Maoling finally released her hand.
If not for the occurrence of that incident, Pei Ran surely would have been a fine child who brought glory to the ancestors of the Pei family. Thinking of this, a bleak expression flashed across her face. She knew that tonight would be another grueling battle and she could not lower her guard, so she quickly regained her composure.
Luo Lingyou simply couldn't bear to watch any longer, muttered "shameless" under her breath, and then retreated into Shang Yu's mind.
This so-called plague was largely a man-made choice, and no matter what, the people behind the scenes would never harm Xiao Zhenjiang.
