Volume 1, Chapter 42: Vulgar, Bah!

Yang Yuqi stubbornly refused to believe what Deputy General Guan had said, whether out of genuine disbelief or self-deception.

Deputy General Guan said, "General, I will go drag that rascal Zhao Xiu here right now to confront him face-to-face."

Deputy General Guan turned to leave.

Yang Yuqi shouted, "We are on a mission, have you forgotten?"

"Yes." Deputy General Guan had no choice but to drop the matter.

"We will talk after the mission is completed," Yang Yuqi said.

"Yes," Deputy General Guan nodded, and followed Yang Yuqi's troop into the palace.

Inside the imperial palace of Great Qian, spies from the Eastern Depot could be found almost everywhere.

The Eastern Depot was responsible for monitoring officials and arresting high-profile criminals.

Naturally, the conversation between Deputy General Guan and Yang Yuqi just now was also overheard by someone hiding in the shadows...

Mu Bai couldn't help wondering in his heart that he should discipline this fellow during their next class, so as to make him understand that confiscating his roasted chicken was entirely for his own good.

At this thought, Lin Changyun couldn't help glancing at Ye Tianji beside him, frowning slightly.

Faced with such a grave incident, the reaction of the Underworld was surprisingly calm; far from showing any signs of a massive manhunt, it was almost as if they were deliberately letting the matter go.

When Lin Dong got up, it was actually still early, only half past seven. Wearing a sportswear outfit, he prepared to go for a run.

Qian Yixue excitedly hugged Mu Bai's arm, her voluptuous chest rubbing continuously against his arm.

The Qilin Scholar Mei Changsu was the faith of all scholars in the Qingyu Dynasty, and his death directly impacted scholars throughout the entire realm.

Later on, it was the Buddha who exposed the true identity of the Six-Eared Macaque, trapping it beneath a golden alms bowl before Sun Wukong beat it to death with a single swing of his cudgel.

However, now that the old man had issued a warning and reprimand, he dared not act rashly again and could only suppress his grievances in silence.

Long Aotian spoke to this point, then suddenly cast a charming, intentional sidelong glance at Ye Ziheng and several other males.

When Dugu Zhishui and Ziqian crossed the wooden stakes, they still made sure to go to the cold pool every day for an hour of balance training.

"How audacious of you!" Baird strode forward and angrily slapped Page's hand away. With an even louder 'crack', Page froze, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot. He glared angrily at Baird and the others, his lips trembling slightly.

Fanghua's mind was in utter chaos. She had tried every possible means to avoid this, yet never expected to run into him here. This was not the outcome she wanted. Recovering her senses, she began to struggle desperately.

"It's nothing. Why don't you and Fatty come back together after school today? Mother is going to the town and will be back later." If it truly was as she suspected, could that person be Bingbing?

Sheng Mingzhu held Xuanyuan Yi tightly. Xuanyuan Yi tried to push her away, saying, "Empress Dowager, please maintain your dignity." Xuanyuan Yi could never bear to see Sheng Mingzhu shed tears. Now that she had voluntarily thrown herself into his arms, his senses were filled with her scent, leaving him unable to resist.

To know that sitting at home while waiting thirty minutes for news of whether she lived or died was a torment where every single moment felt like a year.

"The Empress Dowager worries too much. This official takes his leave." Xuanyuan Yi had no desire to argue with her over right and wrong, and turned away immediately.

Just as Grandpa Long had said, being able to spend these few decades by her side was already more than enough to make him content.

The brother and sister arrived at the place, but upon stepping inside, there was no sign of the Bai residence whatsoever. Aside from a few collapsed and ruined houses, nothing remained except utter desolation. At this sight, both of them felt their pupils contract, a chilling sensation creeping up their backs.

She began casting spells upon him. Ye Nanpei had given both her and Qiu Xiong a type of pill that allowed them to learn and use simple magical techniques within a short period of time.

After tidying up the chess pieces, Yelv Qi departed, leaving Fanghua sitting alone at the table, lost in her own thoughts.

Yueyao hesitated for a fraction of a second, then paused and said, "Please wait a moment, doctor. I must ask for her own opinion first." If she had absolute certainty of success, or if the treatment caused no harm even if it failed, Yueyao would have made the executive decision for Xiangwei to accept treatment. But in the current situation, she could not bring herself to make that choice.

"Then what will it take for you to agree, Weiwei?" Tang Xuanli simply tossed the question right back to Bao Weiwei.

Xiangwei muttered under her breath, "Can she really persuade him?" Everyone else had failed to reason with An Zhuozhuo, so the idea that a single conversation from Yueyao could change his mind seemed highly unlikely.

"I am sorry for my rashness. Please!" The opponent turned out to be quite resilient, enduring the agonizing pain of a fractured hand bone, shifting his attitude completely, and offering a respectful gesture of invitation.

Nonetheless, no particular expression showed on Bao Weiwei's face; she merely offered a faint, gentle smile.

Although he did not know the exact nature of Fred's ability, the fact that he could create duplicates already astonished Qin Yunlong, and what was more, the number of clones was far from small.

Dubai proceeded directly to the fourth level without stopping. Upon entering, he discovered that there were already people inside, and the fire monsters were no longer limited to fire birds, but also included fire wolves and fire tigers.

Of course, in this spacetime, the black powder "invented" by Gao Jingzong was not meant for conquering the world, but rather to save the Chinese nation from the tragic fate of near-annihilation and extinction. Yet Gao Jingzong did not realize that once he had easily opened this Pandora's box, it would completely slip beyond his control.

The Fourth Granduncle had never expected this grandnephew of his to be so extraordinarily wealthy; a single box of jewelry like this was easily worth several thousand taels of silver. If the matter succeeded, the reward would be even greater, certainly surpassing what was before. The Fourth Granduncle could not help feeling tempted.

"Is that so? Then you must hold tightly onto my hand! I'm afraid... the moment I turn around, you'll vanish." Lan Ling leaned gently against Lingyun's shoulder.

"My good sister, do you think I look like someone who can casually pull out 200,000 RMB?" Dou Wei smiled bitterly as he parried her words, while desperately searching for a countermeasure.

Those who listen to the wishes of others are merely wise rulers; they can never become the absolute, infallible "All-In-One" who dictates and controls everything.

"Tell me, couldn't you pick another time for your work? For instance... when I'm not around?" Ji Meina spread his hands helplessly. Wasn't this deliberately testing the limits of his audacity?

"It doesn't matter, Chef Teacher!" Lee Soo-man stroked his chin and continued, "This is an exchange among you musicians, and it has nothing to do with me."

Tongyao found it amusing. Lin Chu was simply too annoying, and the director of moral education's expression had darkened visibly. Seeing people looking over, she hurriedly retreated outside the office, glancing around like an ordinary passerby, though everyone knew perfectly well she was the one who had accompanied Lin Chu here.

In the past, Lin Chu might not have dared to step outside, but he had already missed his chance once. He refused to let himself miss Tongyao again in this lifetime. Some opinions from parents were correct and worth heeding, but others were flawed, requiring the individual to judge for themselves.

When Dou Wei stepped forward again, that fellow retreated once more. After repeating this twice, the police officer simply handcuffed his own hands behind his back.

The wielder of the black pieces reached out and grabbed Yang's neck, lifting him effortlessly as if he weighed nothing, with not the slightest sign of difficulty in breathing.

Yet the lively, jumping big carp right before his eyes was unimaginably real. Even after being tossed onto the bank, it kept flopping incessantly, trying to flip itself back into the water.

He inspected it closely, still felt unsatisfied, and had to do it all over again. After repeating this four or five times, he was already soaked in sweat from exhaustion.
