Volume One, Chapter 49: Suspicion

In the main hall of the hunting palace, the emperor and accompanying ministers were all present. Eunuch Tian hurriedly came forward to report, his joy beyond expectation: “Your Majesty! The Princess and Minister Zhang have both returned!”

As his words fell, Ning Yunshu and Zhang Zhixi entered the hall one after the other.

However, Zheng Jingang began to inquire in detail about Li Jianrui’s journey. Li Jianrui chose not to mention that matter and instead began recounting the remarkable encounters he had along the way.

Dongfang Tian nodded thoughtfully. Every family harbors its secret histories; the Dongfang family was no exception. His brows furrowed tightly, sensing that what his father was about to reveal must be crucial family secrets.

Just as he moved closer, a sudden clap of thunder and flash of lightning startled him awake from his dream. Opening his eyes, it was already nine o’clock at night.

Mo Yu shot a resentful glare at Zhuang Shaoyou before turning away and walking off. Mo Mei, however, watched him with reluctant sorrow, causing Zhuang Shaoyou to shake his head with a wry smile before turning back inside.

“When did cultivators become so brazen on my Sacred Continent?” the other party asked in genuine puzzlement.

Mo Mingchen’s face remained cold, his gaze growing even icier upon seeing Liu Rumei’s schadenfreude.

The wind suddenly rose, his robe billowing as his hair floated upward like the fallen demon Lucifer—sinister and chilling. His expression was bloodthirsty and fierce.

I retorted quickly, “I didn’t mean it. Who told you to park your car so recklessly that day? I just kicked it on a whim—I never expected it would break so easily.”

A thunderous roar echoed through the heavens and earth as the Dragon-Binding Sword finally dissolved into nothingness under the overwhelming might of the Swimming Dragon Sword.

Twenty days later, after hitchhiking in invisibility by bending light for twenty days, Cheng Kong arrived at a colony star’s spaceport aboard a ship returning from a poor mineral world. He had no idea where exactly he was.

Yaya was even more adamant. “You behave yourself. If the star beasts mutate again, it won’t be something we can handle.” Thankfully, the mechas were there.

Jiang Lin had just placed the magic wand on the shelf and hadn’t yet exited the World Store when the wand was immediately purchased.

Xino was not from the Dink clan; she still longed for children of her own. She dreamed of finding a man she loved and having a lovely baby.

Unlike in the game where the ammo box produced only a phantom, here it could directly release a physical entity.

“Don’t be afraid. We fought enough yesterday. I mean no harm—I just want to be friends,” Shi Meng said gently. Though spiritual creatures do not understand human language, they can express intentions through spiritual light, attempting communication.

Xie Ji’s new play was in preparation. She spent each day familiarizing herself with the script, keeping herself meaningfully occupied.

Lin Yinming led Yang Yuanfeng into Liu Daitian’s chamber. As Yang Yuanfeng entered, he saw Liu Daitian sitting alone, quietly sipping tea and lost in thought. Upon seeing Yang Yuanfeng, Liu Daitian slightly raised his head, signaling him to sit nearby without ceremony.

The speaker was an old man, who was somewhat acquainted with Lin Feng. It was this old man who had survived an ambush that time—he was the only survivor.

A cold silence filled the car; no one spoke. Mo Li remained silent, gazing out at the passing scenery.

Such a woman earned more admiration for it. When Jin Shaokang occasionally paid respects to the matriarch, she would praise her in his presence, and he sometimes echoed those words. Yet admiration aside, Jin Shaokang felt no special affection for Qing Dai.

“Manager, this is Boss Han. He wants twenty units of this car,” Tan Xue quickly placed the order form for the car on the manager’s desk.

“Who I am is none of your business. Here’s a check for one hundred thousand. Take it and get lost! If I ever hear you harassing them again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!” Chen Zhong threw a check at Jiang Yuan, speaking coldly.
