Chapter 187: Taking You as My Wife

"Watch over things here, I'm stepping out for a moment," she said to Zhao Yu, then rose and hurried outside.

There was a security camera installed at the entrance of the Lu family estate.

Lin Lu walked a little further away, steering clear of the surveillance range.

The man concealed behind the tree gave a soft cough.

Lin Lu ran over, breathing lightly. "Why... why are you here?"

...

"I... Li... Li... Li Yifan." Looking at the man whose face was obscured in front of him, Li Yifan felt the overwhelming excitement of finally seeing another human being after being imprisoned in endless darkness for days. All his guard was down, and he was even somewhat thrilled that he had been freed and could speak again.

Hearing this, Haoyang slowly turned his head to look at the floor, his handsome profile clearly etched with unwillingness and resentment.

"These are just things I heard from others; we've never had such occurrences in Yingnan Town," Old Zhao hurriedly explained, terrified that these police officers from the city might report him.

Lin Xi cast a silent glance at Kage, and after a moment, transferred some high-energy Source Power points to Tiger at Heart, who then added him to the guild.

If I still harbored a shred of doubt before that he had already entered the True Spirit Realm, I am now utterly convinced.

Seeing that Zhang Xiu and the others had already advanced several dozen paces, Hua Xiong forced Ma Teng back with a flurry of blade strikes, then reined in his horse to follow. Ma Teng did not dare to pursue from behind; the arm that had blocked the blow was still trembling incessantly, a clear testament to the immense power behind Huche'er's previous strike.

Global satellite positioning searches were no easy feat, but fortunately, Wang Junwei's information battalion was no slouch. With professionals like them lending a hand, matters naturally progressed with twice the result for half the effort.

At this thought, Wang Hao felt a genuine sense of gratitude toward Shueisha and Ayano Iida. Since they were putting in so much effort on their end, shouldn't he also help promote the work a bit?

Through the Heavens Strategy, Liang Xiao knew just how much suffering this adorable person before him would endure if the heavens and earth remained unchanged, plunging him into deep remorse.

Suddenly, a strangely shaped cyan-yellow vine burst forth from the remains of the giant cyan-yellow python, darting with a swoosh into the boundless earth.

Yet right now, the clay figure remained completely unharmed, even the wound on its chest slowly healing.

"Don't you think Aesop is a total show-off?" Xu Guangxi took a sip of his sour plum soup. "None of us have ever seen a real Admiral, yet the moment he arrives, he pins all his medals and epaulets on, making this flashy entrance just to intimidate the clueless likes of us."

While the four of them were eating, the rescue operation finally achieved another breakthrough: through careful investigation, the agents of the Eastern Depot discovered that over half a month ago, a group of suspicious outsiders had been lurking in the nearby area, renting a house less than three kilometers away from where the prayer beads were last found.

The blade stopped a centimeter away from her chest. Su Shimao stared at the tip of the knife; had she made a sound even a second later, that blade would have already pierced her heart.

To ease the awkwardness, the host announced, "Let's give another round of applause to Donna and our dragon for their wonderful performance!"

Yin Yi and Xu Guangxi shared matching blinks, and whenever they sat together, people couldn't help but speculate whether they were a couple.

Zhong Nan did not decline the Emperor's kind offer. Coupled with the dinner appointments he had already made with Shi Xing and Song Yingchang for the next two days, he decided to stay in the capital for three days. Moreover, before leaving Jizhou, his military duties had been properly arranged, so he had no worries about any adverse effects.

Since it was impossible to convince Dong Tiancheng, it was better to flatly deny everything. After all, the truth was known only to himself.

Only upon reaching this realm, after the body has been cleansed by internal energy over a long period, purged of impurities, and undergone a complete rebirth, can one live longer. To a certain extent, breaking the shackles of aging, living three or four hundred years is entirely possible.

In the end, Tang Zhou dragged back the multicolored black that Qinghui had collected from various planes and stuffed it back into the system space just as it was about to be shown to Qian Ka.
