Even so, the Manic Ghost had no easy time of it. He encountered a familiar combat style: the combined attacks of the Hundred Ghosts. No sooner had he managed to neutralize the joint assault of the Water, Fire, and Thunder ghosts than he was caught off guard.

Dressed in a light blue security uniform, Chen Feng found himself with his first job in life, though he couldn't help but mock himself for it. To him, however, looking at the company’s various departments as a whole, it seemed that the security department was the only one with any real "prospects."

This only fueled Shan Yun’s enthusiasm. Since she could actually inflict pain on this guardian spirit she hated to the bone, how could she possibly stop now?

"As for my descendants, sigh, let it be. If you ever happen to encounter the Liu family of Dongyu, I hope you can look after them for me," the old man replied after a moment of hesitation.

Li Na knitted her delicate brows. She worried that if this evil force were not eradicated, then in a few years, when Mayor Peng was transferred to another city, the Qin family would rise again to oppress them.

Yan Jue felt a bone-chilling cold throughout his body. He hid in the corner, not daring to emerge, watching helplessly as his grandfather’s breathing slowly faded away. The man he called father watched it all with cold eyes, then closed the door and left as if he had seen nothing.

Everyone was very curious. How had Liu Feifei been living all these days? Why hadn't she come to the cafeteria? What was she doing? Was she in danger?

Seeing the three of them slay the magical beast, the people from the Pluto Palace, the Demon Sect, and the Shushan Sword Sect finally withdrew their gazes, the heavy burdens in their hearts at last relieved.

The commanders of the Thirty Battalions spoke up one after another, quickly discussing countermeasures before rising to throw themselves back into the fray.

Jian Tian took a step closer. Not a man of many words, he sat beside Dai Dai and gently kissed her forehead. This simple action was enough to send a flush rushing to Yun Dai Dai’s face.

"Nothing went wrong, did it?" Di Yumo’s brows were tightly furrowed. The dull, listless expression she had worn during the day was gone from her stunning, peerless face, replaced by the dignity of one in a position of authority.

Yuan Shao gritted his teeth. From his position in the central army, he could clearly see that a breach had been torn in the very front line of his formation.

With a dull thud, Zhuang Zi coughed up blood again. I rushed forward to help him up, desperate to speak to him, but not a single word could pass my lips.

From a distance, a sharp-looking young man hurried over, cupping his hands in greeting before Li Hui’s horse: "Are you gentlemen here for the martial arts tournament?"

Zi Xu’er kept her eyes fixed on the pregnancy test, terrified of missing anything. When she saw the two red lines, a glimmer of excitement sparked in her eyes. This Yu Mo was truly pregnant; this was wonderful news.

And then there was the accusation of torture. Jun Mo asked himself: while he admitted he could be ruthless when the situation called for it, he certainly had no penchant for torture. How did he get associated with that?

Zuo Peng had died in battle, but he was merely one of many soldiers from the Vanguard Army who had been slaughtered.

Li Cangqiong was standing with his back to Gu Xingyue; he could not see her expression, but he could feel her unease.

Walking outside, she realized that the pleasure boat had already drifted to the center of the water. The ripples glittered, and even without moonlight, the view was breathtakingly beautiful. The pleasure boats passing by, under the sway of their lanterns, were lost in the rising mist, dreamlike, quiet, and peaceful.

She felt satisfied and fulfilled, but in Princess Leng Xia’s room, it was a different scene entirely.

Her morning had been impossibly busy, and when she finally got off work, she turned off all her communication devices, intending to get a good sleep. Her assistant, Julie, pushed the door open just then.

"If that’s the case, then the most likely candidate for the Sun should be Huo Ran! Right! When I found the Sun, it was originally only Huo Ran and Ye Lin; Huo Guling only appeared later!" I clapped my hands and shouted.

"Shuxian, I’m afraid I cannot give you what you want." Qin Aotian held his wine glass but did not drink immediately.

Mo Zhengxuan felt a headache coming on. If Mo Shengquan found out they had left in the middle of the night, he would surely face another lecture upon his return.

If she had known things would turn out this way, she would never have let Qin Fang leave; she had nearly caused a catastrophe.

Murong Xuan gave him a faint glance. He had little fondness for this seventh brother, who was always so inscrutable. If it weren't for the fact that his mother, Consort Yi, was the biological sister of his own mother, he wouldn't even bother with him.

The Grand Princess and the First Consort were surrounded by the Second Consort. Panic seized them; they truly hadn't expected the Second Consort to be so treacherous and calculating.

Just as she wanted to say something more, Li Si came downstairs dressed in casual clothes, and she could only swallow her complaints.

Pao Pao was trembling with excitement, shouting "baby" through the glass. The other fish enthusiasts gathered around the tank, some clicking their tongues in wonder, others gasping in amazement.

Setting aside the change in Nanny Shu’s thoughts, the personnel changes in the Liu family affected not only the Shu family but also the Wang family, the Ma family, and others.

The atmosphere in the grand hall, which had turned cold and lonely, suddenly became lively again at the clever prompting of Master Xuefeng.

"Chen Kai, this necklace is a family heirloom. I think it would be more appropriate for you to place it on your fiancée yourself; I cannot accept this," Mo Yuqi said with a faint smile, politely refusing Chen Kai and the rare, precious diamond necklace.

"Your eldest uncle is on night watch on the boat; he left right after dinner." The eldest aunt opened the fish crate, saw it was full of rock oysters and sea moss, scooped up a handful of sea moss, put it into a basin to rinse, and prepared to add another dish for the evening.

Wang Yiheng let out a breath, stopped worrying about the matter, and began to receive his scheduled appointments, presiding over an important meeting.

Sang Liuye said instead that A-Zeng had always insisted that there was no need to pay back the fifty thousand; the money was to be considered an act of filial piety toward the two elders.

"If you can't beat them, run!" Ye Yu said, instantly casting his Seven-Star Sword to flee. "Damn it, wait for me!" Xuan Long roared in fury, a flash of profound yellow light streaking after Ye Yu.

"Android 17 and the others will find us automatically. We can just wait for them at home," Mi Yan said calmly, taking Bra’s hand and preparing to head home.

As soon as she broke the surface, the Cold Beauty launched a fierce attack. The battle qi within her erupted, directly shaking off the hands the man had locked around her waist. Then, the Cold Beauty kicked out underwater, striking the man directly in the chest.
