Chapter 34

As soon as the words left his lips, Zhao Shuhan was stunned. How could he have lost control and blurted out what he was really thinking?

Chu Zhenting was instantly enraged: "Zhao Shuhan, what do you mean by that?"

Mother Zhao hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Old Chu, don't be hasty, my husband just meant—"

"With how miserably your family is doing, we’re worried you’ll ask us for money just by associating with you!"

Mother Zhao panicked and covered her mouth. The colleagues who had been working all turned to look at him in unison, their gazes heavy with meaning—some filled with shock, others with disdain.

What comforted her was that her disciples had no intention of walking the path of divinity; they remained dedicated to their cultivation. Shi Miao held a great deal of faith; if her disciples wished to follow the divine path, they could have ascended to the heavens in a single step and achieved immortality instantly.

"Do not think that just because you speak in secret, no one will know. I can calculate exactly who has violated our agreement." Cheng Zhiming had also quietly approached. Although she wore a smile and appeared to be joking, no one would dare take her words as a jest.

Seeing someone so much stronger than himself willingly abandon the advantages of the South for the sake of love made him want to find a hole to crawl into.

Before this incident, she had thought her nephew was perfect in every way, but now that it had happened, how could Lu Yan possibly remain satisfied?

With so many snakes around, they had plenty to choose from. It was best to pick the largest ones so that the quality of the smoked meat would be much better.

She made a phone call, asking a friend to help investigate the previous owner of the house Cui Xizhen had just purchased. Perhaps she could find a clue there.

Qin Anjing was short-tempered and fiercely protective of her own. Over the years, she had kept a low profile in Nancheng, rarely appearing in public, and had barely visited Beicheng even a few times in the past.

It was evident that even before this arena ranking board, there were god-level entities standing guard.

Clena took an elegant sip of her porridge and glanced at Marina beside her. Marina sat bolt upright, lost in thought, only occasionally raising her eyes to look at Ye Yinzhu.

The Human-God Patriarch thought to himself and immediately took action. Whatever appeared in his sight, whether it was a treasure or not, he looted it clean. He even followed suit by tearing up the stone tiles paved on the ground and taking those as well.

The leader’s gaze was piercing. "The supporting facilities must be complete, capable of welcoming at least two hundred thousand tourists a day!" He held up two fingers.

Suddenly, the jackal head, which had already grown a size larger, expanded even further, completely eclipsing all the other heads. Meanwhile, the lion’s head withered and dimmed in an instant.

Was it true that after hosting several unreliable staged embroidery-ball tosses, Father's brain was no longer functioning on a normal circuit?

Having barely fled a hundred yards away, he suddenly felt a wind rise above his head. He didn't need to look to know that the demonic birds were catching up from behind.

"It is useless. Even if you defeat me, you cannot change the fate of this planet. Once Jenova claims this world after it has been ravaged, I shall be eternal." Sephiroth was attacking Rorschach with words, just like every villain who believed victory was already in his grasp.

"A wide-area spell? Dammit." Fang Senyan stood up abruptly, his revolver firing wildly at his opponent, but as soon as the bullets entered the wasteland of Zhu Jue's domain, they decayed and eventually turned to ash.

"Darkness... Orochi Nagi!" Chris’s crisp, youthful voice rang out, and a surge of pale flames, identical to those of Iori Yagami, instantly lashed out toward Kyo Kusanagi.

Fu Guochen’s gaze, however, fell toward the stairwell. Just then, a dark shadow flickered past; evidently, Liu Wanting had been eavesdropping there and was now truly heading upstairs.

How was she supposed to put it? Tell him she was Gu Nian? Who would believe something as inconceivable as reincarnation?
