32 The True and False Heiresses (Part Ten)

Hu Zi let out two rattling sounds deep in his throat. His legs kicked violently, his body convulsed twice, and then he fell silent.

At first, everyone had merely been complaining that mathematics, physics, and chemistry were too difficult and absurdly demanding—that even going bald would not help them master the subjects.

The iron nail still lodged inside Tang Ding’s skull suddenly shot out. Like a bolt of lightning, it streaked through the heads of three lackeys in succession, instantly extinguishing every sign of life.

Yuan Ruoruo had once asked her for Xiao Yue’s WeChat contact, but there seemed to have been some misunderstanding at the time, so she had given her Chen Yannan’s contact instead.

His hand tightened slightly, deforming the documents he held. Ji Feichen did not notice. The curve of his lips grew wider and wider, his smile bitter and desolate.

Using the Black Serpent to strike against the Black Tortoise shell-shield, he shouted at the monster, “Hey, squirrel-and-mandarin-fish, your grandpa’s right here.” Bathed in the glow of the flames, the locksmith looked extraordinarily tall and imposing, with heroic spirit practically spilling from him.

“Someone, bring tea for our guests, and serve several of the new pastries as well.” Princess Consort Su Yingxue of Duan appeared warm and approachable, an elegant and proper smile on her face.

The coffee table had a marble surface with rounded corners, yet his head had still been split open by a two-centimeter gash. Even now, a scar remained on his scalp.

When Ye Weifeng received the message, he immediately took Ye Xiqing with him and hurried to Spring Breeze Valley without stopping. After several discussions with the elder couple of the Xie family, along with several heartfelt conversations with Xie Qi and repeated assurances that he would keep a close watch on the troublemaking Ye Xiqing throughout their relationship, the marriage engagement was reluctantly allowed to continue.

One warrior after another looked toward Su Ni. They remembered the mockery they had once directed at him, and the silent way he had borne it. Faced with life and death, many people were willing to set aside their pride.

Li Goudan realized that he had made another mistake—he had knowingly broken the rules. If his master were here, would he not be hung up and beaten?

As for the other Transcendent of the Great White Sect, He Zheng was practically hoping the man would come knocking. He would seize him, seal his meridians just as the other had done, and have him instruct the sect’s future disciples and students. Depending on his performance, he might even let him go.

At position seven, the man withdrew both hands from the medicinal solution. They were trembling violently. The skin on both hands had been almost completely destroyed, leaving marks resembling those caused when an ordinary person is scalded by boiling water. It seemed he would be unable to continue.

The only prerequisite was that he have enough power to absorb. Naturally, that was nothing to worry about. In this Rift of Time and Space, there was nothing in short supply except power. This place seemed to have been tailor-made for Hong Tian.

“So that’s how it is!” Hong Tian understood at once, a sharp glint flashing through his eyes. This Research Hall was not bad at all—it had actually managed to create a cannon capable of instantaneous attacks.

“Could they have gone to the Barbarian Tribe?” The thought arose naturally in Chen Yi’s mind. Once it occurred to him, he no longer dared waste time and immediately rushed toward the Barbarian Tribe. In his wildest dreams, he would never have imagined that Lu Yuyao had already left the area.

In the middle lane, Kai Kai and the enemy’s Tiao did not seem intent on killing each other. They simply focused steadily on securing last hits. However, Kai Kai’s farming rhythm was inferior to that of Kiro, the team’s active professional player, and he was behind by roughly ten kills. Through the camera, one could see sweat beginning to bead on Kai Kai’s forehead.

“Elder, I have a question for you. I hope you will answer me honestly. If our ship really has been stolen, what should we do then?” This concerned the lives of everyone among them, and Gu Chen took it extremely seriously.

Not to mention Su Cheng himself—if his mother found out about this matter, she would certainly force him to marry Wang Yurong as well.

This time, Gui Qianqiu launched the attack first. After obtaining the Demon Dragon Mantle, every strike he made carried a revolting, fishy stench. Su Lin did not dare let down his guard. The poison had only been suppressed temporarily; it had not actually been dealt with completely. If he were poisoned several more times and the toxins continued to accumulate, even he would find it difficult to handle.

The Jazz were preparing for today’s game. It was the final game of their regular season, but it was not particularly important to them. The coach had even decided long ago not to field players such as Hayward, Joe Johnson, and Diaw, arranging for them to rest instead.

The Pistons’ enormous point deficit destroyed their hope of winning. Not long after the fourth quarter began, they abandoned their resistance and conceded defeat.

Consort Yun frowned. When she turned to look at Zhan Lianjing, she knew at once that he must be furious.

Zhan Lianjing had known that she must have something to say when she returned this time, but he had never expected Yu Sheng to have killed himself by smashing his head against a wall. Nor had he imagined that the master he had always believed to be detached from worldly desires was concealing such profound feelings.

Zhang Xinlan pulled Chen Jianguo aside and quietly gave him a few instructions. Chen Jianguo nodded, greeted Liu Qing, and the three of them took their seats, chatting as they ate.

Therefore, if Lin Chongxiao exposed his identity because Lian Lai had helped him, he would truly regret it beyond measure.

Moreover, the problems with his temperament were simply too severe. Otherwise, he would have been an excellent choice to recruit as a subordinate.
