Chapter 41: As Long As One Is Willing to Return

Xu Weiwei thought for a moment and said, “You make a good point. Those people won’t give up so easily; they always stir up trouble, and who knows how it will end. Agreeing to persuade her to leave is indeed a better option. Mianmian, what are your plans for the future?”

She was certainly reluctant for Ruan Mianmian to leave, but there was nothing to be done. They were just powerless, insignificant workers, unable to compete with the bosses. Rather than both suffering defeat—

I stayed in the bathroom, barely managing to calm my emotions, only to realize I hadn’t brought a towel or clothes. The clothes I washed yesterday hadn’t dried yet.

“Who’s there?” The man with the goatee loosened his hold on the beauty in his arms, alert. His wife hadn’t checked up on him for days—could today be the day she decided to do so?

Legendary-level warriors lived several times longer than ordinary people, but few ever used such skills. For Rogethus, however, the moment had come when he had no other choice. If he didn’t use it today, he might never be able to use it again.

Those hands, pale with curved black nails at the fingertips, scraped the edge of the mirror, the nails rubbing against the glass, producing a sharp, grating sound that made one’s teeth ache.

“Your Highness flatters me.” Though Shuyin was now considered Ren Qixiu’s subordinate, she retained the pride of a sixteen routes Moon Mistress. She always referred to him only as “Your Highness the Third Prince.”

If her cultivation improved, she might go to the Western Continent with Mo’er, but it wouldn’t be right for Jingxiu to wander back and forth. Now that she served as her mother’s chief maid, who could say what awaited her once she left?

Fu Qiang watched Tong Doudou’s movements closely. He noticed that she worked methodically and, while measuring, had already considered what needed attention when the actual construction began.

Ayu leaned at the window, peering out several times. It made her, who planned to train diligently at the manor, itch to go out for a stroll.

When the employer arrived on site, he collapsed to the ground, unable to believe that his son—so outstanding in every way—could be a murderer.

Even if that shattered armor sold for millions, he could buy it without so much as a furrowed brow.

Half a year seemed long, but their actual meetings were few. To claim deep feelings would be a lie.

Regnar held the Blade of Flames in his left hand and the Light Devourer in his right, using the latter to block the orc captain’s axe. The Blade of Flames pressed tightly against his arm, ready to strike at any moment.

Huang Sheng immediately felt a warm current spread throughout his body, as if he were soaking in a hot spring on a cold day.

As Ye Feng and the others surveyed their surroundings, a rough voice drew everyone’s attention. A burly man nearly two meters tall, with a buzz cut and clad in silver armor, stood proudly in the center. His piercing eyes swept over the crowd, and his face bore a clear expression of disdain.

Jiao Yuning gritted his teeth, knowing that today's actions amounted to failure; regaining face in front of Su Xinxin was essentially impossible.

“If there was going to be one, it would have happened long ago—why wait until now?” Zhou Hanyan said, turning around to meet a pair of shimmering, almond-shaped eyes.

Luo Yufeng strode forward, swung his sword, and with the sound of metal clashing and sparks flying, repelled all thirty-six concealed weapons launched by the flower boy crone.

Ye Xiran rested for only one night. Ignoring Jiang Han’s objections, she was about to leave when she received a sudden call from the company.

Li Qiaomu saw that neither of them truly intended to grow vegetables for sale, so he stopped asking about it and instead inquired about their other ideas.

At the banquet, all the orcs feasted on roasted meat and drank “fine wine” in great gulps. Some even danced the grass skirt dance around the bonfire, making for a lively scene. Even the usually aloof prophet, whom the orcs dared not approach, was surrounded by beasts drinking merrily. After the tigers finished drinking with the prophet, the bulls took their turn.
