Chapter 61: At the Critical Moment
Ye Xiangying brought his grandson home and locked him inside. When he returned at noon, his wife was cooking, and the boy still stood facing the wall.
Upon hearing his grandfather come in, Ye Jingnan snorted coldly, "All you know is to punish me. It wasn’t my fault I fell. I told you someone pushed me."
"Who told you to go to the seaside alone?" Leng Bin shouted angrily, his voice cracking.
Ye Jingnan shrank his neck, but then, determined not to appear weak, stretched it out again.
He was asked to step forward and help deal with the Ashura Clan. Previously, he refused because he felt Mo Fan had not yet matured.
Yet, just as the two began to speak, a Reverse Dragon Spear shimmering with silver light abruptly hovered at Nightcry’s throat.
"Then allow me to wish Elder Ye a victorious start," Chen Feng no longer lingered on sentiment, clasped his hands, and spoke.
"Good, you have courage..." The King of the Ever-Victorious Treasure Tree laughed heartily, leaping high from horseback like a great bird soaring, landing dozens of yards ahead of Xie Wujie, displaying remarkable lightness and agility.
"Perhaps... Sending you a thousand miles, we must part at last. A Da Bi, return now. If you miss us, write a letter. Remember, bring me the colored butterfly when you come back. If you get the chance, you two can visit Rehe. Farewell!" Ma Chengfeng clasped his hands to bid A Da Bi goodbye.
"Senior brother, I don’t like this meeting gift." Iron Dragon said in frustration as he was tapped on the forehead.
Chen Feng knew nothing of what happened afterward; he simply drove the car towards places with fewer people, hoping to minimize collateral damage. He knew these men, ready to do anything for money, lacked all compassion. Life and death to them were nothing more than stacks of banknotes.
She possessed the Saintly Five Venoms Body; her entire being was poisonous. Anyone who so much as touched her would die from the poison. Yet Lin Chen had been holding her hand as they ran through the jungle. According to her estimation, it would not be long before Lin Chen succumbed to the poison.
Moreover, the urgent concern now was the approaching dragon. If they could not slay the beast, not only would the mission fail, even returning would become doubtful.
A Yi was suddenly struck by a terrifying thought: over these twenty years, the corpse people might have secretly formed countless groups or organizations.
Yan Le, considering the situation, felt he should expand his power, establish a stable pharmaceutical supply in Zhuangle County, and lay a solid foundation for the industry’s growth.
Though Bi Qianmo was young, his methods were infamous. Any company that had crossed him or the Empire Hua Group never met a good end.
"I’ve finished eating too. I’ll go find the doctor," Xu Huinan put down his bowl. The words Ku wanted to say were abruptly cut off by the two, leaving him speechless. Ao Xue watched Ku’s embarrassment with amusement.
"Impossible. He doesn’t dislike pink or perfume. At the ball, I wore pink, and he said both my dress and my perfume were lovely," Ya Xue recovered from her shock and retorted loudly.
Following the voice, two guards turned their heads to look at his brother, whose hands rested on their shoulders. From his palms, a brilliant light erupted, lightning coursing instantly through the guards’ bodies.
"Brother? What’s wrong?" I waved my hand in front of his eyes. He jumped, stared at me in confusion for a moment before snapping back to himself. I looked at him curiously, "What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?" I touched my cheek and asked.
"It’s just, if you truly like He Xi, it will be hard for you. Ever since his fiancée passed away, he’s been like this. Five years have gone by and he’s still unchanged," Yun Tian sighed. Five years had already passed in the blink of an eye.
Yet days were hard for everyone; when someone suddenly speaks up, it’s unbearable. What can be done? A solution must truly be found.
