Chapter 27: If he's such a big shot, why hasn't he slept with you, Feng?

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads toward Gu Yun, their eyes filled with inquiry and suspicion. One must understand that the Lingqiao Sect was the foundation for them all; if this foundation were destroyed, they would truly become rootless duckweed.

Gu Yun entered the room and respectfully addressed his grandfather. The old man nodded with a smile and gestured for him to sit on the stool opposite him.

Ms. Lin would remain at Jonas Manor. She was responsible for the design of the Oriental Museum and needed to oversee the style of the commercial street, in addition to recuperating from her illness in Switzerland.

And so, two hours passed. Even if the people had been joyful, they were inevitably tired now. Sitting quietly under the moonlight for two hours had calmed Luo Yu’s mood, yet another trouble had appeared before his eyes.

The reason was that this training base was merely an auxiliary unit of the Dragon Tooth Squad; apart from providing fresh blood to the team annually, the two were completely isolated from each other.

The apocalyptic scene expected—the collapse of the heavens, the shattering of buildings, the cracking of the earth—simply did not occur. Blackbeard’s punch resulted in nothing at all.

The group came in a hurry and left in a hurry. For Xu Mo, the only regret was failing to extract more useful information from them.

Afterward, he gently placed his right palm onto the surface of the scroll. Although the scroll appeared ancient, its texture was surprisingly smooth. The bright moonlight spilling in from the window bathed his hand and the entire scroll in a clean, silvery white, as if merging them into one.

People around them cast glances, seeing at a glance what had happened, yet each was more indifferent than the last; no one reached out to help.

En Cheng looked pale and haggard. In his heart, he understood that it was not that Li Hongzhang lacked meticulous thought or intellect, but rather that he lacked the spirit to lead an uprising and the courage to raise his arms in a call to action.

In his eyes, the matriarch of the Emperor family must be broad-minded and absolutely free of duplicitous intentions, especially calculation, which he had always despised most.

Su Yi seemed to have foreseen it; abruptly, he reached out, gripped Li Feng-han’s throat, and then gave it a casual shake.

Although he was saved by Xia Sijiu, the backlash from the Emperor Evil God Desolate Bone remained, and Xia Sijiu lacked the mysterious means of Ye Anchen to suppress it.

Yang Family Village remained the same Yang Family Village, yet the oppressive and gloomy atmosphere was gone; it lay there, ordinary and peaceful.

Lin Tian nodded. The other person’s worried expression reminded him of his mother’s gaze, which warmed his heart.

Yu Subai seemed startled by the ringing. After a long moment, she took out her phone to check the caller ID, then couldn't help but frown.

It was fine for Lin Xue to find such a powerful backer, but precisely because the backer was too powerful and superior, did she still need to struggle and climb the seemingly flat but actually rugged path of stardom?

Sun Yirou pressed her face against his lips in heartache, hugging him tightly and feeling the trembling fragility there.

In an instant, Yu Subai realized that the terrible things Lu Chengxing spoke of might not be as simple as she had imagined.

This night was destined to be different from the past. Two children, still ignorant of love, made a silent vow that transcended life and death.

"Hmph, even if the Tang family secured the opportunity for the Soul Ring Tower secret realm this time, with the few pieces of trash in their family, they couldn't possibly gain anything significant." The members of the Chu family, still harboring resentment, curled their lips in disdain.

"I didn't ask you, so why are you telling me this?" though I was curious about what he was actually doing.

Shao Fei looked at their landing site. It seemed that Okamura Yasuji had entrusted the task of attacking the Changshan position to the 106th Division.

Right, what a coincidence; the hospital he brought Wanwan to for her physical check-up was also here, and he had submitted the medical records. But he never expected the two mothers to go to that doctor's office.

Old Man Feng clearly didn't believe a word about "the sixth stage," but upon actual inspection, the old man’s body trembled, his hands shook, and tears seemed to well up in the corners of his eyes.

Of course, Qin Tian did think this way, but as for whether others could understand the deep meaning behind his actions, Qin Tian truly didn't care. At the very least, fundamentally, it was a psychological suggestion Qin Tian was planting for the observers.

Strangely enough, the black butterflies were all being harassed by someone, yet the white butterfly was left entirely alone—despite being the brightest sight at the venue.

Due to his personality, he could keep her in his heart, but he would absolutely never sabotage her relationship with her current boyfriend.

"I made dozens of calls and asked dozens of friends for help, but that bastard Lan Fuchun refused to give me the time of day. If you were in this situation, what would you do?" Shen Zhu asked impatiently.

Why did Di Hao suddenly fall? The disciples looked at each other, all bewildered, not knowing what to do.

"Then, after Mother went missing, why was she with Father?" The four great families did not include the Gu family; the Gu family was merely an outsider. Gu Nan-yu did not know why the Gu family was involved.

He had been to dangerous places before; as for this so-called underground organization, as long as he remained vigilant, there would be no problem.

And now, a mere Shrouding the Heavens world. In the original work, even the ruthless Empress, who eventually became a Red Dust Immortal, only reached the Immortal realm.
