Volume One, Chapter 33: Little Ji—I'm Not the One Who Drugged You!

"Master, although I am already yours, I hope you will not interfere in the business affairs of the Tang family." Tang Yun knelt on the ground and said softly.

"Principal Jiang, how can this be considered lying? It doesn't count at all; even if it were a lie, it would be a white lie." Uncle Lin tried to make him change his mind.

Their home was brightly lit for the first time in a long while; even from a distance, one could hear the laughter echoing from his mother's room.

First of all, this was not his personality or his principle of doing things; secondly, he paid tuition to attend school, so it was not a favor granted by the institution, and he had no absolute obligation to help.

This meat was not tough but incredibly succulent and rich. Most importantly, this mutton had only a faint gamey taste, which was perfectly acceptable.

Of course, he was intentionally exaggerating. There were not many people who had heard of this, but not few either; at the very least, Master Qiao and the others were unaware of it.

However, he could not say this to Company Commander Song. The commander had treated him well, and telling him directly that he wanted to join another company would be a slap in the face.

After receiving their orders, the servants shuttled back and forth, finishing the setup in less than an hour.

Yang Shuxin was originally from Jizhou, and as her father was the Regional Commander of Jizhou, he would naturally know much more about the affairs of the Dragon family.

Li Yunsheng also sensed that something was fishy. He immediately coordinated with the Ancient Wilderness Boy, opening his palm with a flash of light as the Great Sage Martial God Stele appeared and rapidly grew in size.

Mix, who was helping to provide testimony, was full of questions. He did not care for celebrity culture, but as a director, he naturally paid close attention to entertainment news. A superstar this famous had died, yet the internet had not reported it; how was it that these people, who had been trafficked here and lived in extreme isolation, knew about it?

The black shadow was covered in blood, with wisps of black vapor permeating from its body. The corners of its mouth were split open, reaching all the way to its ears, resembling dark holes.

The legal team arranged by the Gu family was already waiting downstairs at Shengshi Entertainment, and the group of six strode into the conference room with an imposing air.

If it had been in the past, many people would have been out shopping at night, and the night markets would have been quite lively. After all, the public security was good back then, there weren't so many troubles, and people felt at ease.

Gu Chenfeng raised an eyebrow and asked her, his excessively handsome face wearing a very sweet smile, though there was no warmth in his eyes.

Because the Zhang family had never tolerated those of impure bloodlines since ancient times, even if they adopted someone for a period, they would drive them out once they reached a suitable age! Not even Zhang Qishan, who was once a noble grandson of the clan, had escaped this fate.

Zhang Daoming was also watching all of this, but as he was currently resisting the attacks of the ghostly aura, he was completely helpless.

Gu Chenfeng kissed her again, not as roughly as the last time. When he was in a good mood, he was willing to bestow a measure of tenderness.

Then, the bead in Ji Qiyi's hand gradually emitted a cloud of red mist, which was subsequently absorbed back into Ji Qiyi's palm.

For years, they had been searching for the whereabouts of the Phoenix-Dust Bead, and those who knew anything about it could be counted on one hand. This was the reason they had failed to find it for so long.

Therefore, Li Yunxi felt no discomfort with this, because she understood that as a star, having people who genuinely liked her was the best thing possible.

Long Yang immediately ordered the Soldier Soul to command the left and right spirits to guard the vital passes of the mountain, preventing the other three teams of the Eastern Emperor from searching their way to this location.

However, Xu Jiangnan looked back at the hilltop once more, feeling somewhat puzzled, before shaking his head.

With a low roar, a light sword descended from above, sealing off every angle of evasion as it struck toward Tang Jun. Facing the incredibly powerful light sword, Tang Jun felt a tightness in his chest, which he then forcefully suppressed.
