Volume 1, Chapter 157: Something for Nothing Can Be Dangerous

Seeing that Jin Yao was full of life and bouncing around, Shen Zhaowu finally felt completely at ease.

Zhou Jingdu buying her that handbag was secondary; the primary reason was that Shen Zhaowu was genuinely terrified of anything happening to Jin Yao.

She could never afford to pay for Jin Yao's life.

Pressing her lips together, she hesitated no longer, a faint curve touching the corners of her mouth, "It seems he is fine, so I will be heading back now."

"Alright! There are no buts about it. We will have plenty more opportunities for cooperation in the future, not to mention that Miss Xia Mo has already contributed a great deal to this matter!" I patted Shen Tiansheng on the shoulder and said.

Hearing Wang Tu speak this way, An Qianqian was so startled that her body trembled. She failed to keep a steady grip on the glass in her hand, and it slipped, crashing and shattering on the floor. She turned her head to look at the composed Wang Tu, gently tugging at his sleeve to signal him to stop talking.

After all, the current Dugu Wu was run by Tian Hen, who right now wished nothing more than to kill Dugu Yin, though they simply lacked the opportunity. Therefore, if not for Dugu Ba's strict instructions to monitor Dugu Yin's condition, Tian Hen surely would have returned long ago.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how about a round of enthusiastic applause to welcome our divine doctor Xiao!" Elder Shao shouted loudly into the microphone on stage.

However, a few nights later, a news story made the headlines of major newspapers and also popped up as a pop-up window in the lower right corner of Liu Banruo's computer.

After finishing her chores, Sister Jiaren had to go to the clinic to treat patients, while Chen Qing had to head to school. With only a week left until the college entrance examination, today was the day the school took its graduation photo.

That meant last night's dream... was very likely not a dream at all. The Lee Sung-kyung he had touched in his dream was none other than Lin Duoduo right before him.

As the middle-aged man spoke, his gaze suddenly swept across Chu Yi and the others, lingering on Nangong Yu for a few extra seconds. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but in the end, he withdrew his gaze.

However, Chen Jiahao had no intention of taking full responsibility for avenging him just yet. From what the man had just said, the person who hunted him down back then was also an Nascent Soul old monster. Right now, Chen Jiahao was being chased to the ends of the earth by Fire Venerable; he had no energy left to provoke another ancient monster.

Lu Nan did not return directly to his apartment. Instead, he instructed the driver to take him to Brother Dao's residence on Guangming Road, determined to find out who had kidnapped Qiu Tian.

"Enough!" Luo Yixuan interrupted Dongfang Yi's words with slightly red eyes, and said with displeasure, "I know you have plenty of money, but since I've already agreed, this won't change. Think it over!" With that, Luo Yixuan immediately grabbed her bag and ran out, her footsteps somewhat unsteady.

...You simply haven't witnessed the Northern Prince's profound mastery of playing the pig to eat the tiger. Otherwise, how do you think Illusion State was destroyed?

He began to slowly deduce the Qinghua Sword-Slaying Art, shattering the light of the Yin. At this moment, his state of mind was as serene as water, utterly devoid of distractions. The meteor-falling divine skill unleashed by Cong Liqi just moments earlier had enlightened him. He began to comprehend his own mental cultivation method, following his heart's intent, and slowly brandished the Wind-Governing Divine Sword.

Looking once more at Mu Yuhua's heartbroken expression and Ye Yu's disheveled and wretched posture as he collapsed on the ground, he was instantly completely baffled. What the hell was going on here?

Clutching an ordinary ancient zither, she slowly descended onto a huge lotus leaf on the surface of the lake. Ripples undulated across the emerald lake, swirling around that jade-green lotus leaf like a newly blooming lotus or a hibiscus emerging from the water.

Yue Longting pondered for a moment, then agreed to Xiao Feifei and immediately hailed a taxi to rush to Tianwaitian Food Plaza.

"Rong'er, what are you doing?" Guo Jing looked in bewilderment at Huang Rong as she walked toward Miyu. He did not have much affection for Miyu and even harbored some inner resistance, especially since Miyu had dealt lethal blows to the Quanzhen Seven Masters whom he respected.

The night was already very deep, and even the full moon hung obliquely over the western eaves, yet the living room of the Rose Garden remained brightly lit, with figures moving busily to and fro.
