Chapter 38: Shen Shuwan's Ruin

Qin Xiaoxuan nodded vigorously, "Yes! Yes! Yes!" clutching her camera tightly with great excitement. This was typical of a pseudo-fan; lacking a specific idol, she would seize any chance to pose with a celebrity just to show off to her classmates later.

Forget it, don't dwell on it. It’s best if the memory doesn't return. As for the future, let us drink when there is wine, and let the rest be damned.

Seeing Ma Zhe so resolute, Zhou Kai was both shocked and delighted. "Ma Zhe, where did you find the money?" According to the rules, securing such a large sum would entitle Ma Zhe to a commission—millions, perhaps even ten million.

Princess Wansheng did not hesitate. Ignoring the Nine-Headed Insect’s hysterical wails and pleas for mercy, she swung her sword and severed both his legs.

Although she had already anticipated this outcome, confirming it for certain still left her heart filled with profound pain.

The man’s eyes widened as he deliberately repeated the name "Dong'er," then nodded to show he had committed it to memory.

While this method is wicked, it is terrifyingly powerful once mastered, capable of slaying even those in the Dao Lord realm.

Picking up the phone, he saw it was Xia Meng calling. Zhang Qian answered with a sense of trepidation.

Jia Zheng disliked hearing such talk. He snorted coldly, "Even if he isn't dead, you beat him to such a state! If his family presses charges, where does that leave us?"

As I said before, all the threads—the Underworld, the Demon Realm, the mental hospital, and Mount Shu—will eventually intertwine. Every mystery will have a logically consistent "cause and effect."

In a sense, Mount Yuehua serves as a private garden for various martial arts families, even if it does not strictly restrict entry to the common folk.

The streetlights were dim, and the rolling metal doors of the shops on both sides were half-closed. A warm, ambiguous red light spilled out from within. From time to time, one could see exposed legs moving back and forth, or someone sitting on a sofa behind the door, legs crossed, the tips of their shoes swaying teasingly toward the street.

Densely packed vengeful spirits scurried in terror beneath the massive monster. More spirits, seemingly drawn by the Vengeful Spirit Doll, were pulled in from all corners of the labyrinth, only to be infected by the pervasive fear—but by then, it was already too late to run.

Xiao Ziyang made an intentional, offhand remark. Qin Chen’s face remained expressionless, though he sneered inwardly; this Xiao Ziyang was truly full of schemes.

Ling Qifan, one of the four renowned young masters of Yan University, had once hinted to the outside world that Yu Qingya belonged to his Ling family; anyone who dared harbor intentions toward her would be an enemy of his.

The world divides after long union and unites after long division. Even if they can coexist peacefully in one room now, who is to say they won't be enemies when they meet again?

The Fourth Consort studied Consort Min. Previously, she had thought her much like Consort De—gentle and broad-minded—which was why the two consorts were close.

The youths did not yet understand the significance of "that existence," but seeing Sang Ruo’s expression, they knew that the Demon King’s discovery must be of paramount importance.

Seeing Xia Tan'er press for an answer, Xia Lingli hurriedly shook his head. The past was not only a wound that refused to heal for Xia Tan'er, but after his own awakening, it had become a wall that shackled him; the mere mention of it pierced him to the bone.

As usual, just as Ye Xuan whispered the thought in his heart, a flash of light swept over him, and he vanished without a trace.

"Take it. This item is of great help in cultivating mental focus." Mao Jiamin nodded and tossed it to her without a hint of regret, leaving Qing Yao deeply moved.

At these words, the noisy scene fell silent. Every eye turned toward Xiao Zhang, even those from the North District.

"I’m tired, and I have to return to the capital tonight. Let’s end the interview here!" With that, Su Jie took Qin Feng’s arm and walked out of the corridor.

These were not creatures of Chaos, yet the Void Beasts were entities of no lesser stature, dwelling in the world of nothingness.

"Uncle Sun, come to the Asia United Company. Bring a lawyer and prepare for the handover," Qin Feng said calmly. There was no need to say more; otherwise, it would ruin the effect of acting cool. To speak little and accomplish shocking deeds—that is what a true master of posturing does.

Xiao Wanyue started the car immediately. Xiao Qiyuan leaned forward toward the passenger seat, voicing her concerns to Du Luo.

"Which eye of yours saw me cheating? This is your gambling house, and the dealer is your employee. With so many people watching, tell me, how exactly did I cheat?" Ye Xuan retorted, leaving Hussein speechless.

"A hundred times more expensive..." Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan almost vomited blood. To think Tushan practiced racial discrimination—they really knew how to make money.

The following was a long wait. It took half a day for the other party to respond; clearly, after receiving news of Ragnarok, they had carefully verified it.

Under such circumstances, the Golden Bell Cover withstood the attack without a scratch, leaving many unable to comprehend it, and utterly astounded.

In the world of pirates, there exists an ancient biological weapon—Poseidon—which can communicate with underwater behemoths and holds the potential to overturn the world.

In that other world, she had witnessed power on a cataclysmic scale; how was she supposed to compete with that?

The pirate captain who possessed Armament Haki ultimately couldn't hold on. As he was about to suffocate, his mental state shattered, and his Haki faded. Nash finished him with a single blade strike.

Gu Mingchao went inside and was nearly blasted out; the floor heating wasn't just burning brightly, it was practically the furnace of Lord Lao.

A flash of cold light crossed Gu Yuan’s eyes. In his previous life, he had been on the battlefield and had killed men. As his aura surged, the gang of thugs felt a chill rise from their feet, and their steps faltered instinctively.

Clearly, the Divine Son Ma Ru and his supporters did not believe that Zhong Chao could destroy everything before him as he claimed.

Zhou Qianlong suddenly appeared in the center of the martial arts arena, then looked at Yu Chen before him and chuckled softly.

As the citizens of Jinluo awakened and began to interact, the events of last night began to enter the public eye.

All treacherous officials were to have their homes confiscated and be beheaded, though their families would not be implicated; those with official titles would be stripped of them and reduced to commoners.

"Sigh! It’s a pity Meng Tao isn't here. If he were, he could control this monster, make this big guy obedient, and turn it into our transport, using it for our own ends!" Professor Yiyu shook his head and said slowly.
