Volume 1, Chapter 34: Who is Jiang Mingying? & What to do about a fraudulent marriage?

Chen Qianqian would certainly have refused, but given the kind of person Qin Shaoan was, it took only a few words to make her accept the villa.

Daoist Qiu stood at the entrance of the City God Temple, gazing into the distance as if lost in thought. I stared at his back, momentarily dazed.

"Are you no longer angry with me?" Chu Feng asked, deliberately teasing her when he saw Xiao Xiaoxiao take the initiative to speak to him.

Yet, under Ye Yun's fists, a grandmaster like Hong Qingyang was like a weak chicken, to be slaughtered at will.

Their full-force strike had been dismantled so easily that they began to wonder if the decades they had spent practicing swordsmanship had all been in vain.

But the good times did not last long. Lightning began to fall from the sky again. This time, the bolts were like arrows, raining down continuously. I tried to dodge, but I couldn't. Moreover, these arrow-like bolts were incredibly powerful, piercing straight through my bones.

"Understanding and comprehension are two different concepts. If I tell you that I didn't even understand what you were saying, would you still think I grasp your logic?" Chu Feng retorted.

In the end, Qin Yu did not receive their gifts because new guests had arrived. This time, the invitation went to Athena, and the ones who arrived were no less impressive: Apollo the Sun God, Ares the God of War, Venus the Goddess of Love, and over a dozen other deities.

Qin Shuang was surrounded like the moon among stars, receiving the treatment of a celebrity, for such a wealthy student had never appeared in the school before.

Thompson had not expected such an outcome and feared that Franche would blame him. Fortunately, Franche seemed to realize his own error and did not scold anyone, though his expression was grim, casting an invisible pressure over everyone.

Zhu Xie Chixin waved his hand, telling them to go out and see the place where they would be staying for some time. Ling Ming and Cheng Nuo returned to the blue skies, white clouds, and green grass where they had arrived. Finally, they held hands; Ling Ming smiled at Cheng Nuo, her expression radiant. Cheng Nuo was swept up in her emotions, accompanying her as they ran wildly across the meadow.

"It's not really about me," Aoxue replied. "Let's go inside." With that, she pulled Aojun in with her.

Finally, Jiang Qi drew the sword at his waist, gripping the blade with his left hand and dragging it slowly. In an instant, his palm was sliced open by the sharp edge, and blood began to seep slowly through his fingers.

The magic shield could not withstand the destructive power of the Rising Dragon Slash; the shield's energy was instantly depleted, and the remaining force surged forward, draining the mage’s life force entirely—a true case of the shield shattering and the man perishing.

Ling Ming went to the elevator bank and pressed the up button, waiting for the elevator—which had been innocently damaged after being drained of power by a mysterious person—to slowly descend.

"You should head back early and get some rest," Aoxue said to Xu Huinan after stepping out of the car. Xu Huinan looked at Aoxue and nodded.

Before I could think, the Korean players had already rushed before me, leaving me no peace of mind to consider these things.

Xia Yenuo said nothing more, instead pulling Hao Xin straight back to the arena, leaving Jack completely sidelined.

When they arrived at Zong Xiao’s house, he was drinking. Tong Ji looked at the wine and food and said coldly, "Is this a celebratory drink? Are you happy now?"

The bounty website mentioned here was, of course, not one of those ordinary sites; he was looking for the kind where high-stakes transactions took place in the shadows.

Beneath the lake, it was pitch black. The freezing water made even some of the ability users uncomfortable, while Liu Xuan held Zhong Yiyao and Chen Yan tightly to ensure they didn't get lost.

The sage of the Chan Sect was stunned for a moment, followed by a sharp ache in her heart. Had she truly forgotten him? But then, on second thought, it was better that she had forgotten him than to seek death the moment she saw him.

King Mowa’s expression was displeased. What did the three of them mean? They could have come out long ago, yet they delayed until now. Were they actively choosing to give up and refusing to join the Immortal Palace?

Unlike the usual haughty demeanor Su Chenghuan displayed, she had taken the initiative to approach him and offer a greeting today.

Ice Finger was an easy person to see through: young, impulsive, foolish, and arrogant... His thoughts were entirely transparent in the eyes of the seasoned Aladino.

The middle-aged man spoke coldly, his aura forcing Xie Feng to take two steps back. Xie Ling also arrived from the air, gazing at the middle-aged man.

Bai Yu took this opportunity to lunge forward with his spear, using a "Covering Step Triple-Thrust" to force his opponent back to his original state.

The Shen family thanked Mrs. Zhou the Third repeatedly. After seeing her off, she gave Mammy Huang an extremely detailed account of everything regarding Feng Ge’er’s diet and daily routine.

This storage room was an abandoned chamber. For some reason, the members of the Lu family had felt extremely uncomfortable the moment they entered it, sensing an eerie chill, so they hadn't stored anything there and kept it locked. In any case, the house was vast, and they had no need for so many rooms.

People around them had already begun to speak. Although they were offering advice, the arrogant tone in their words made it very unpleasant to listen to.

"That is not the point. The point is, you openly slaughtered a fellow disciple of the Qingyun Sect. What crime is that?" Yi Fan asked.

"This old servant believes it is because the war with the Northern Rong has ended; the people live in peace and prosperity, the regions are tranquil, and the court administration is smooth. Thus, the ministers have no major matters to report," Zheng Yong said, his words filled with the usual sycophantic flattery.

As a result, she realized that those members of the hidden clans who had followed Princess Qingping to help King Yu, Hao Xingqi, conquer the world were all the elite of their clans. They were young, passionate, and full of ideals and wisdom.

Han Bing continued to rub salt in the wound, saying, "However, there is one thing the Empress Dowager should find comforting. Although most of the autumn ginger flowers in your back garden were destroyed in the fire, a few stalks were taken out of the palace by my companions. This can be considered leaving a memento for the Empress Dowager."

Thanos had not expected Sean to have such thoughts at all, but instead of feeling anger, his previously guarded heart began to relax.
