Chapter 48: How the Villain Became Hopelessly Romantic, Part 11

“I’m afraid the brother you knew is no longer the one standing before you,” Su Zhe said calmly.

Above the void, chains forged from the very essence of order surged and writhed ceaselessly. In that instant, they coiled tightly around the supreme peak, and in the next moment, an endless torrent of order transformed once more into chains, binding the entire Celestial Saint Palace in their grasp.

A mighty roar echoed as the heavens became the battleground for the two. With no one to halt the Scarlet Heaven forces, the clash reverberated thunderously through the world. Amidst this fierce combat, the heavens seemed to tremble, and countless onlookers were drawn to the brilliant lights that danced across the sky.

After hearing this, Emperor Nan Tian found it all the more incredible. How could a remnant of the Dugu clan be so extraordinary?

A deep voice resounded at that moment. With a single swing of the Purple Cold Sword, sword qi burst forth into the sky. In an instant, accompanied by the sword’s might, the figure of Purple Cold danced atop the peak. As he moved, endless sword qi sliced through all around him.

Waiting was never a joyous affair, much like the tragic tale of Weisheng, who drowned while clutching a bridge pillar.

That sensation was unsettling. A century ago, Purple Cold was a passionate youth; though still young today, he bore a hint of weariness.

Unlike the idle chatter of those behind him, Luke, as the captain, was focused on the mission at hand.

The Azure Dragon clan began its mass migration, leaving the Ancient Star Domain for a region where giants could not easily find them.

Xue Rong watched in stunned silence. Mu Chen Dong never showed kindness to Shi Wei and was always domineering, pressing relentlessly.

Outside the restroom, Xu Yuan kept admonishing the clumsy Blue Yingchen. It wasn’t that Xu Yuan distrusted Blue Yingchen, but Blue Yingchen had never given her peace of mind.

After years of overtime at the company, Bai Xiao, who subsisted on takeout during commutes, retrieved long-forgotten memories. Gazing at the abundant apricot trees, the phrase “fruitful harvest” surfaced in his mind.

Among four intermediate-tier Immortal Emperor experts, Wang Shengtian was clearly no match. Bu, from the bottom of his heart, understood this sudden twist left him dumbfounded.

The difference between scavengers and survivors from years ago was that the latter fled with only essentials, while scavengers later stripped any useful remnants bare.

Yet the hundred Feather Forest Guards formed a coordinated formation in motion. United as one, anyone attempting to break through their defenses would surely suffer greatly.

She lifted the kettle from the stove and poured two large cups brimming with water infused with dried locust flowers. Whether one had eaten wolf or wild boar meat, a large cup of locust flower tea was wonderfully refreshing.

Indeed, regardless of the world—be it a feudal dynasty or a modern society—many truths remained universal.

There were things he hadn’t told Haige. From Lupin’s memories, he glimpsed the figure of a young man.

Ye Feng also felt that holding onto a grown man like that was somewhat inappropriate. Luckily, Huang Er Ya wasn’t around; otherwise, he would have surely faced a severe scolding today.

From the day she moved out of school, entered the workplace, and returned to her new home, Xu Yuan’s new life began.

Her eyes sparkled with captivating light. This ball was prepared for her sixteenth birthday.

Kageyama Keigo couldn’t have cared less about Jiro’s goodness. He didn’t even want to speak to him, finding it unbecoming.

Seeing this, Lin Yu withdrew the hand seal, rubbed his nose, and a faint bitter smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

Nan Xing was speechless, while Yang Wanqing and Bai Wangsheng’s hearts ached. This child always thought of others and seldom of himself.

The fifty-two supreme geniuses were merely blasted away, unharmed, knowing that Long Qingchen had held back. Otherwise, a single punch from Long Qingchen to the back would have left them either dead or crippled. They understood they had lost and saw no need to continue.

As the door opened, a sliver of dark light first seeped through, shrouding everything in darkness. Then came a heavy scent of blood... At that moment, Feng Guang’s consciousness plunged into darkness. With the sound of his body hitting the ground, the villa fell into complete silence.

Thus, what seemed like polite magical duels unfolded round after round. In the blink of an eye, dozens of bouts passed, seeming to span a whole day and night.

With a wicked, charming smile, Gu Chen’s beautiful fingertips gently brushed An Xiaoxiao’s flushed cheek.

Gu Xiran was held tightly in the man’s embrace, his breath mingling with the subtle scent of sweat on him, though it was not unpleasant.

Eggy and Natasha watched Hawkeye with envy and jealousy. They had witnessed Yongdu’s divine strike, tearing apart the warplane with his bare hands.

Yet even so, Wang Guihua had long realized that Xiang Yue’e could never have feelings for her son.

Tian Xiaofen came at the request of her mother, Tang Zhenhua’s eldest aunt, to help care for Tang Zhenhua’s parents.

“Come on, everyone, make way, please!” Upon hearing the voice, I instinctively pulled Zhao Yanan aside. After all, we were now at the back of the team.

No matter what, Ilson, a local boss, was far more efficient in carrying out tasks than Jos.

After finishing a mouthful of soup, Lu Li angrily cleared his bowl, snatched Zhang Yuqi’s bowl—who was still drinking—and went to the kitchen to wash it.

Precisely because of this, Jos now seldom used this ability. Even the High Celestial Lords found it unnecessary, knowing that if Jos lost control, his subordinates would surely restrain him in time.

Li Xianhe and Wen Wan’er talked for a long time, but Shangguan Ruixin never grasped what they meant by “keeping mum.”

However, Zhong Chun Shui found it hard to swallow and worried about Zhang Yifan. She wondered how he would settle the bill.

Now, Conrad personally deigned to accompany and entertain—was this too much of a concession?

It seemed that next time, I must seize the question the moment it’s posed; otherwise, at this rate, I’m bound to lose.

Suddenly questioned by Gu Pan, Chen Guoguo was momentarily stunned. Yet in an instant, her eyes reddened, tears filling her gaze once again.
