Volume 1, Chapter 34: The High-Maintenance Sister-in-Law Falls for a Scam

Zhang Ruyun had only walked a few steps when he felt Yin Niang’s body begin to heat up. Listening to her heavy, labored breathing, he realized it was the exact same symptom of the fever she had suffered two months ago in Jiuquan County. Seeing this, his brows furrowed; he could only hope that his dark premonition was not true.

Seeing that Qin Yibai refused to divulge how these people should be properly settled, a hesitant Xu Shi could only agree, turning to Ghost Head to begin arranging the banquet.

She was not particularly surprised; Song Yuanqing had already reached the Third Tripod stage years ago, so how could he still be at that level now?

Yet, how many people would still remember these ancestors who could be said to have set the stage for the Wind River War?

Amidst the endless distortion of the void, just as the fierce, peerless sword intent of the assailant—who had fused his body with his blade—brushed against the hairs on the top of Qin Yibai’s head, Qin Yibai’s body suddenly vanished into thin air without a sound.

"Go find the child's father. You have to take responsibility eventually; you are still young," Jing Ruhua said, taking a calm sip of her coffee.

Tch, if you don't use protection for a year and still don't conceive, wouldn't that mean you're infertile and need to see a doctor?

With a sharp shout, the countless blood snakes in the basin first froze in unison, then bowed their heads in perfect order.

Of course, in private, the two were very restrained—mostly him. Until the future was certain, he didn't even engage in hugs or embraces.

Le Chen shook his head repeatedly: "Your mother—it's fortunate she has you to protect her." Otherwise, she would have been picked clean to the bone by others.

Demons do not die easily; they transform into demonic energy and return to the abyss. Because Fland was lax in his first mission and failed to destroy the evidence immediately, he gave the enemy a chance to escape.

The father dared not speak. The aunt had seemed ready to continue the assault, but was stopped by the mother, who, at that moment, did not want to vent her anger by hitting him, wishing only to hold her child. A rare redness appeared in the father's eyes; he did not know what to do, for everything that happened yesterday was his own doing.

Lacking sufficient vital essence and with his strength significantly diminished, the youth had no choice but to stay in his room and recuperate, waiting until his power recovered before venturing out again.

Sima Yanlong stepped forward with a grand stride, an astonishing aura radiating from his body as he took his folding fan and swept it toward Yu Yang.

After speaking, Mo Xuan propped his chin in his hand, rubbing the stubble on his face as he stared at the candlelight in deep thought, as if he intended to settle on a name for his child right then and there.

You say they reject high-tech development? That is not entirely true. Without outsiders knowing, the City Lord’s Mansion was riddled with countless high-tech jammers inside and out, which made her, an intelligent robot, feel very uncomfortable.

Grandfather and Father, hearing the commotion, rushed out like the other villagers, only to see a fire stretching from their doorstep all the way back to the ancestral graves. The grave closest to the fields was that of my great-grandfather, and the fire, with uncanny precision, had bypassed everyone else’s ancestral graves to burn only ours.

I walked up to my aunt and carefully examined the expensive urns in the glass cabinet. Without a second thought, the elders ignored the cheap boxes on the front counter and walked straight to a display case.

"Florence, did you come specifically to watch me play? I’ll play well; cheer for me in a bit!" James said, brimming with excitement.

Zhan Hongying sat beside Yun Feng, shifting uncomfortably. She didn't care to show respect to Shen Hong, but she could not ignore Wen Xiuli. Leaving so abruptly gave Shen Hong a cold shoulder but left Wen Xiuli in an impossible position.

As the big man’s voice faded, his entire body suddenly bloated, and red cracks appeared on his skin, as if he were about to burst apart.

Jun Yan’s ruthless verbal assault made Ye Yuhan tremble all over. This was the second time he had been infuriated to this extent by Jun Yan, and both times it was because of those four words: "self-righteousness!" Unable to bear it any longer, Ye Yuhan finally burst into a torrent of abuse.

They all understood what fate awaited them if they remained to face an enemy army of over a million, yet they had no regrets.

But what of those who stood on the side of the Heavenly Court? They, too, harbored grand ideals, viewing these people as short-sighted obstacles on their path to the Great Dao.

Because they were still some distance away, they couldn't see clearly, but the outlines were visible, and it was evident that the army was marching in their direction.

Lu Ya was busy, so Yun Feng took over the wedding preparations for her. Zhan Hongying handed the restaurant over to Tang Liqin to manage, and Liu Lanyun delegated her duties to Liu Qingyuan.

As the inventor of the "Air-Stagnation Loop," Kihara Yui was naturally required to participate in the restoration work.

"Master Chen, what about this snake and this butterfly? Did they also come to you for help?" Master Long asked, looking at Chen Hao.

However, just as they were about to go upstairs, a middle-aged man in gray robes, appearing to be in his forties or fifties, suddenly emerged and blocked their path.

As time passed, the cold, white frost spread from Lang Xie and the King and Queen of Lei as its center, like a giant spider expanding its web, bit by bit, in an attempt to snare more prey.

In the next few minutes, Ron tried every attack method at his disposal—light blades, energy guns, magic—but none of it had any effect. Instead, he was nearly struck by Cassis several times, leaving him in a wretched state.

The lotus leaves of the Chaos Golden Lotus swayed, shaking the void in all directions. Each leaf possessed infinite power, causing the surrounding Samadhi True Fire to tremble slightly.

"Then I must go; otherwise, wouldn't I have my thunder stolen by this wild princess?" Yao'er suddenly changed her tune.

How could Zhao Xin possibly call to care about what I was doing? So, I instinctively assumed that Zhao Xin must have had some ulterior motive.
