Chapter 38: It Is So Slippery Here

"There is no such 'if'." Huo Yixun held her from the side.

He held her so tightly that it seemed as if, even with the whole world laid out before him, his eyes could only contain her.

Jiang Shiyi wrapped her arms around his lean waist and coquettishly teased, "But I want to know the answer."

"At least those three years belonged to me."

As he spoke, his voice was muffled against the crook of her neck, but she heard the answer clearly nonetheless.

Somewhere outside the city of Chang'an, Liu Dazhu stood alone facing seven or eight burly men armed with blades, yet he showed no fear as he bargained with them.

She had only one thought now: you must not let your hands in, nor your body, and certainly not your head; that way, there would be no secrets left.

Li Chengqian was bewildered himself. When did his mouth become so "blessed"? Could he decide life and death? With just a few words, he had talked this "Crown Prince killer" to his death?

As a vital hub city between the North and South Federations, Jinnan City, despite not having a population scale reaching that of a first-tier metropolis, ranked within the top ten of the entire Star Federation in economic strength.

Understanding the laws of the game world gave him the qualification to change his own destiny, even if he had not gained much from such insight. But as long as they could grasp the rules of the game world, it proved their potential for future development and their eligibility to become well-known figures on this path.

Ice-spirit crystal is both frigid and incredibly hard; even with the intense heat of subterranean fires, shaping it was no simple task. After months of refining and several failures, Xue Xingran finally successfully forged the long blade.

Thinking of this, Tong Guan couldn't help but secretly mutter about his good fortune; it was fortunate that he had regained his senses in time, otherwise, he would have been hoodwinked by Luan Fei without even realizing it.

Savie's mother, Christine, was a powerful mage. Although they were pulled into purgatory by unknown creatures at the time, they fortunately managed to escape, and thus Christine and Ezekiel began their life on the run.

On the planet Green Shadow, Xing Meng saw that Lu Yu had noticed her abnormality. A look of hesitation appeared on her face, and although this strange expression vanished in an instant, it was still caught by Lu Yu.

On the battlefield, the fighting remained intense. Although the momentum had slowed—a result of everyone being exhausted—both sides were still locked in a desperate struggle. No one would give up until the very last moment.

"So, Shangguan Yu used him as a vessel; it seems this time Shangguan Yu has gambled everything..." This thought flashed through Wei Yan's mind, and in an instant, murderous intent flared in his eyes.

And now, the Goode family had seized this very opportunity to deal the Black Gun Party a vicious blow, which effectively served as a death sentence for them.

Although Ailan'er was a four-star Origin Master, Xu Zhe believed she was no match for Tong Ti, let alone Omit, who excelled at killing without leaving a trace.

"Then why were you so 'excited' just now? I thought you wanted to go!" Li Haonan said with an air of innocence.

Li Haonan was with Shan Jiatong again, and he had made their relationship public. Gu Xiaobei felt numb, her whole body turning cold as she pulled her coat tightly around herself. Li Haonan had already returned to his former dashing, reckless self, while she was left to wander in a foreign land with her son, enduring the bitter winds and cold rain.

His fighting style had always been centered on agility, yet he now discovered that in terms of agility, Hill was even better than him.

With Chen Xu's protection, Tantai Mingyue felt much more at ease. She took a secret glance and realized that Sect Master Jimo and Nalan Changfeng were both pale; it would not be long before they, too, would be forced to their knees under the pressure of the Jade Pavilion.

The patriarch of the Demon clan hesitated for a moment before flying over, respectfully bowing to Lucifer and the others.
