Chapter 153 I Don't Blame You

"I also know that we will definitely meet again in the future." Mu Lixiao was firmly convinced of this. As long as Yufeng was still alive, she would want to take back what belonged to her. And Mu Lixiao would never allow her to hurt Huangfu Sheng; she would protect him to the best of her ability.

What she did not know, however, was that those few glances she cast from afar would once again unprovokedly bring trouble upon her.

Indeed, the one shouting the bid was none other than Li Xin. Hearing his voice, everyone turned their gazes toward him, and those who had previously placed bids all stared intently at him.

At this moment, Loki stepped forward, grabbed Jane Foster from behind to pull her away from Thor, and turned to face the approaching Dark Elves, shouting loudly.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Lu Mei's expression seemed a bit off, Li Xin asked anxiously.

Most of the people in Shiye City had already fled, leaving very few behind. The innkeeper had also packed up his valuables, ready to run at a moment's notice.

"Wait!" Just as Ishihara Shigehige was looking extremely proud, Ray hurriedly spoke up to interrupt their ongoing agreement.

"What is Your Grace thinking about?" Seeing that Mu Lixiao did not answer her and instead seemed lost in other thoughts, Nanny Chu asked.

However, Azalea showed no signs whatsoever of having been kicked too hard by Qin Yue the previous night, appearing quite agile. Her full and curvaceous hips swayed with snake-like fluidity as she walked, exceptionally nimble.

"If you call what Feng Yunxuan felt for her 'love' as well. Also, do not put it so nicely; I am a prince of the Golden Moon Kingdom, and you are hardly qualified to act as my father," Yufeng said with a sneer. He walked step by step toward Mu Lixiao, knowing she was uninjured, and thus did not ask.

After a moment, Chu Haoran shook his head. Now was not the time to dwell on these things; with one crisis following another right before them, it was best to handle the immediate matters first.

Consequently, we plunged into an economic crisis once again. After losing the third round without a single suspense, we were left with nowhere to retreat. The score was locked at 4:13, and our debut match ultimately concluded in a complete and utter defeat.

Opening his eyes, Mu Xifeng's heart hammered wildly as he mentally scolded himself for his recklessness. If his sea of consciousness had not saved him this time, he undoubtedly would have died without a doubt.

By the time he left work in the evening, the sky had darkened heavily. Usually, the sun had not yet set at this hour, but now the rooms required lamps to be lit. The shops on the street had already received notices and closed early, making the normally bustling and prosperous streets unusually quiet.

"How could this happen... How could this happen..." Leng Aoqing had been cold and proud her entire life, but she shared a sisterly bond with her senior fellow apprentices. Hearing the news of the others' deaths, tears instantly welled up in her eyes. Li Ling'er and Qingzhu beside her did the same, shedding sorrowful tears.

Looking back on the days and nights of the past two months, although I did not have much romantic feeling for Meizi, we had been friends for so long and spent a period together after all. Even if the affection was not pure, it was affection nonetheless.

Just then, a series of beeps sounded. With a wave of his hand, the Half-God Zhou produced a transparent bead—the universal communication bead used by cultivators in the Immortal plane.

Hearing this, the prairie warrior's eyes flashed with a hint of confusion, but his tone remained respectful: "So the senior is an old acquaintance of our alliance leader! May I ask for the senior's honorable name?" As it turned out, Li Gang had never left Dongsheng in his entire life, making Mu Xifeng's words somewhat hard to believe. After all, there were no cultivators within Dongsheng.

"Uh, as for the captain... the captain's main task is to reserve computers, buy water, and top up accounts for us when we go to the internet cafe," Ye Hui laughed with schadenfreude.

The second team was led by Gan Ning, accompanied by five hundred elite Jinfan warriors and a hundred specially brought eloquent soldiers formerly belonging to Liu Xun's army. They rushed toward Liu Xun's main camp. These hundred men had originally been prepared by Li Ru as a contingency plan in case Liu Wei failed to incite Liu Xun's defection.

"Don't put on a hypocritical act here. If you hadn't brought bad luck upon yourself, Ah Ya wouldn't have ended up like this. Get out of here, leave my house, and never come back again. Our family doesn't welcome you!" Ah Ya's mother began pushing me again, cursing as she shoved.

"Then why didn't Liu Yiran go home? Since he was clearly in Jiangcheng, why did he run off to the distant Yun Family Village?" I still couldn't help asking.

"You reap what you sow. If you were afraid your son would be implicated by you, why did you plot against me? We had no grievances between us."

Seeing her face slightly flushed and dark circles under her eyes, I felt a pang of worry. The family of ghosts that appeared last night had been far too bizarre.

This single factor directly caused Ling Zhen to lower her guard, focusing entirely on keeping a dead eye on Lan Qin while virtually dropping her defensive vigilance against Lan Hua.

She hurriedly turned her head to see the man shirtless, half-reclining against the elevated head of the bed, his hands pillowed behind his head, eyes half-closed as if he had just woken up yet was forcing himself to stay awake.

Well-informed as she was, she had certainly heard about how Chu Qingyu's assessment had drawn countless elders fighting over him.

"Things have already reached this point, and beating him won't help. You might as well calm your anger first and think about the best way to resolve this matter," Lu Wennian said, holding Lu Jiangzhi's hand and gently persuading him.

Strikingly, they saw that someone had used some unknown object to deeply carve sixteen eye-catching characters directly into the wall inside the room.
