Chapter 65: Talent

Si Yao lifted her hand, wanting to check if Xing Ke had any more injuries. Xing Ke took a step back, putting distance between them. This was something Si Yao had insisted upon in the past. Because she had climbed into his bed all those years ago, the two always kept as far apart as possible in front of the Xing family. But now, having convinced herself that she had nothing to do with Xing Jue, Si Yao pulled him close and wouldn’t let him move, carefully checking his arms and legs, unable to rest assured...

It was as though a deep abyss had suddenly opened in Ziyue’s heart. The Wang Hao before her seemed separated by a chasm that could never be crossed. As for why Xing Tiandao chose to launch a sneak attack, a method that would destroy both sides, it was likely because he had no way out. This battle with Su Lin was both the last and only way he could hope to survive.

During this time, Soraka had been touring all the major factories of Miracle Corporation, accompanied in turn by Wang Meng and Li Chuang.

But now wasn’t the time to overthink. She couldn’t possibly let Chen Hao be killed by Dong Chuan; if that happened, the reputation of the Green Gang would be utterly ruined. More importantly, she actually enjoyed chatting and spending time with Chen Hao, and she didn’t want anything to happen to him.

With a flushed face and a hint of helplessness, Guo Sizhi looked at Guo Xihao, then frowned and squinted as he explained.

He smiled. As the person closest to Fat Feng, he knew better than anyone what Fat Feng was thinking. But from the moment he’d decided to let Fat Feng fight by his side, he’d made a resolution: even if it meant death, he would never let Fat Feng die before him.

“Chen Hao, step aside!” Kong Lao abandoned his struggle with those evil spirits and turned his attack toward Di Yi.

Liu Kun nodded. “Mi Qing’s words make sense. When the bank first opened, I set down rules: for any loan, there must be collateral.”

Wu Hui stammered, not daring to meet Ye Qiyi’s eyes. Anyone could see something was wrong with him.

I truly must thank Ghost Qian Shuo for giving me eyes that can cry. My tears fell again, wetting his collar.

The patriarch of the Ji family looked at the cold smile of the Snake King and shuddered inwardly. Yet he was not afraid. He had lived long enough. Though he feared death, if he died now, it would be with no regrets, free of burdens.

Li Maogong once said, there is no mountain that cannot be crossed. Even the greatest martial artists, after death, are nothing but a few blades of grass and a patch of yellow earth. When you urinate on their graves, they can do nothing to stop you. Doesn’t that make you one of the rare invincible ones in the world?

Appearing beside the Qilin, Mo Xue boasted as if claiming credit, her voice full of temptation toward the Qilin.

Yi’s mood brightened instantly upon seeing the moss. With plants around, things never seemed dull; this was Yi’s understanding of nature. Stepping on the soft moss felt comfortable underfoot. Although a cloud of dust rose, it proved the purity of the place, untouched by any living creature.

“I told you, speak honestly and I’ll spare your life. If you try to deceive me, this Forest of No Return won’t miss a corpse. If I kill you, I’ll find out all the same.” Having seen the arrogance of immortals, Long Yu was not at all vague when uttering threats.

As an ability user, he naturally wouldn’t know about the infamous Black Dragon Society, a group of ability users notorious in East Asia.

Or, to be more precise, Heinkes could control certain substances in the air, while Schmidt could manipulate the metallic elements in his own blood.

“Not to discourage you, but you really baffle us. How did you get struck by lightning out of nowhere? I don’t know whether to say you’re lucky or unlucky,” Ximen Duomei said, unusually serious.

Mo Li rolled his eyes. This old man was still as troublesome as ever—every time he asked questions, he insisted on tracing everything back to its roots, digging up eighteen generations of ancestors before he was satisfied. This exasperated Mo Li, but he had no way to change it.
