Chapter 44 Friends

Regardless of Deng Zicong's attitude toward Fang Miaohan, the attendees were quite satisfied with the banquet held tonight.

When Hua Ning left, she even received gifts from Jiang Yuanyuan and Ke Xuefang.

The gift from Jiang Yuanyuan was a light green silk scarf.

The gift from Ke Xuefang consisted of specialty pastries from the capital sent by her family.

"Thank you both for the gifts, I love them very much. I will prepare return gifts for you when we meet next time," Hua Ning said to them.

Following the collision of light and darkness, the independence of the Apostle's aura was weakened to the extreme. When he re-absorbed it into his body, not only did his power increase once again, but the injuries and pain within his body were also rapidly smoothed away and healed.

It seemed that she could no longer count on her master to help her escape. A mere thought would tell her that one side was a wandering charlatan with a superficial grasp of immortal arts, while the other was an ancient and profound clan of immortals; even ten masters coming together could not rescue her.

Suddenly, Ye Tian lost his balance and collapsed heavily to the ground. His entire body turned completely black, emitting black smoke, which looked terrifying.

As for the two Void-Hole tier members of the White-Horned tribe, their white single horns spun violently, and they almost couldn't help starting a war.

Seeing some androids and mechanical life forms sending protests during the event, asking why they had to consume these living beings and claiming that life should be revered, Lin Ai suddenly found herself at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

After Xixi turned and walked out, Lin Ai checked the room once more, making sure the windows were tightly covered and the door was guarded by Xixi, before taking a deep breath and continuing her grand undertaking of undressing.

"Let's hope there aren't too many," Hancheng and Bu Geyi muttered inwardly, their solemn gazes falling upon the list forwarded by Han Dong.

The reason why he had surrendered to Xu Wuyou so easily back then was actually because he had taken a fancy to Xu Wuyou's heaven-defying talent and limitless future.

Suddenly, she felt a strong urge to linger a little longer in such an embrace and enjoy this novel sensation for a bit more.

Since the blessing of "immortality and indestructibility" could be determined to be false, what was the old fox's real intention? Could he be plotting against her in some devious way?

Wu Mu scrutinized Yan Jun up and down, his expression serious as if he were pondering over something.

"What's the rush?" Xin Zeying said with a chuckle. "That counselor of his is rather strange."

The sound of the wind grew even fiercer, howling and wailing around them like ghosts, carrying a sense of deep, terrifying dread.

"This has already formed a complete industrial chain, and I'm afraid it won't be so easy to cut it off," said Zhang Man.

Yan Jun began to deeply excavate the relationship between the two based on his memory. Half an hour later, he actually discovered that there were enormous gaps in many places, and their arrangement had undergone severe deformation.

Thinking back to the fellow who came to steal clothes last night, with his martial prowess, capturing Mom and Shuixin would be as easy as taking candy from a baby.

For Elder Huang's health, he had tried numerous methods, even pleading with martial artists at the Xiantian level. However, Xiantian martial artists were the pinnacle figures of any faction; once their spiritual energy was heavily damaged, it might even affect their longevity, so they were naturally unwilling.

"Such venomous intentions!" Qin Tian roared in fury. Anyone probed by the Soul-Searching Technique would suffer mental derangement at best, or severe soul damage and instant death at the worst.

He had originally planned to use this opportunity to properly put the squeeze on Qin Hai, drive him out of the police station, and humiliate him thoroughly. Yet Qin Hai completely ignored him, leaving him with the powerless sensation of punching cotton; the stifling frustration almost made him sick to his stomach.

Of course, by comparison, he still hoped that these Fire Rock apes were merely venting their excitement rather than summoning other companions.

However, when Xiang Tianyu's parents learned what their adopted son had done, they broke off all ties with him in a fit of rage.

Recently, an organization called the Masks had emerged in the martial world, upholding chivalry, punishing the wicked, and eliminating evils.
