Chapter 44

Looking at his indifferent demeanor, Ji Yin lowered her head in a trace of disappointment; she knew he would never pay attention to her again.

While she was speaking, Assistant Fan was standing nearby and watched as Gu Yuze's previously ice-cold expression slowly softened.

The sect that Zhao Juechen joined in his youth was one of them. Having heard Zhao Juechen mention Yuan Niannian before, Huangfu Peiqing immediately recalled it now.

"Lord Lord, please make your arrangements without worry. Lady Grace and I will definitely carry out your instructions."

"I am not entirely sure either, but I suddenly felt a very chilling presence ahead." Thus, I hurriedly brought Chenchen along, only to find a red skull hovering right above Ruobing's head, flashing a sinister grin at you.

Restaurant competition is fierce nowadays; not only must the food taste good, but effective marketing is also essential, which is why many establishments resort to various promotional tactics.

This was the first time Mo Daolin had heard this elderly elder brother utter such harsh words, and his heart trembled involuntarily. This was a clear, unmistakable threat. He harbored not the slightest doubt whether his elder brother would take action, because the name of his brother's deceased wife had been brought up once again—could he have discovered something?

Hearing this, Zhu Tailai suddenly recalled that during the journey westward, they had encountered numerous troubles and countless demons.

The sudden appearance of Lingzhi came as a complete surprise to Zhu Tailai, filling his heart with joy as he tightly embraced her. The ancestor standing nearby also wore a gratified smile.

Zhai Tao had made it very clear beforehand that Chen Han's ashes had been scattered within the tomb, most of them already melting into the earth beyond recognition.

Gu Xizhen smiled as she pulled her forward, yet Sanxin could not help but feel a biting winter chill.

Luffy's eyes turned icy. If not for Yun Lan's sake, he wouldn't mind giving Qin Huiling a couple of slaps and then tossing Zhang Daqian right out.

None of that was the case. Yan Qi simply felt that in this era, having Chen Xichuan constantly accommodate her in this manner made her exceptionally fortunate. Anyone else might neither understand this mindset of hers nor accept it.

The object embedded in Rong Xuan's heart seemed to perceive this intensely surging vitality and began to move ever so slowly.

Chen Zhe cupped his fists in salute to Elder Ge. Elder Ge inspected the inner core, put it away, and handed over the reward.

Yet if he had known, he would rather have used the Rui Stone to aid her than reveal such a place to her.

Steward Zhong extended both hands and clapped them together three times in the air. The very next second, the sound of approaching footsteps echoed simultaneously from all four directions of the gloomy alley.

Chu Feiyu instinctively tilted her head to dodge, but that grayish object seemed to possess a life of its own and flew straight back toward her.

I certainly cannot guarantee that whatever I create based on my own concepts will definitely be favored by the general public.

"Hahahaha! Lanying! Look at yourself now! You are nothing more than waste now! A piece of waste left entirely at my mercy! Hahahaha! Your transformation is truly monumental!" Duying's laughter was so piercing and harsh that it made one's ears ache.

"However, I thoroughly dislike the aura within your attack! So go die!" Changing the subject abruptly, Cain directly sought to take the Pope's life, lashing out with a dark, murky wave hurtling straight toward the Pope.

"Alright, alright! I genuinely have matters to discuss with you!" Hugo murmured close to Zamparini's ear.

Tie Liu asked mechanically, "What do you suggest?" Tie Huan then whispered a plan into his ear for a brief moment.

To avoid accidentally harming their own people, apart from the leaders Zhang Zhao and Guo Rong, Tang娜, Li Zhihui, and Pu Anna—who followed behind—all gripped the corners of the garments worn by the two people in front of them.

Yuyan felt a lingering sense of apprehension. According to her husband's account, killing one of their influential subordinates would inevitably provoke a frenzied retaliation from the faction. Their organization was vast and possessed informants everywhere; although they were safe for the moment, once they stepped outside, they might be exposed instantly, triggering yet another grueling journey of flight.

However, rather than heading to Ye Tan's residence, he went straight to a tavern. The waiter's service attitude left much to be desired, however; after serving a pot of plain tea, he ignored him entirely. Meanwhile, Ye Tan and the others—barring Ye Tan himself—had all gone directly to Ye Tan's home, which was by far the most comfortable place to be.

The moment they caught sight of Slud in the hall, the two figures behind Richard instantly turned emotional. One was Diluka, and the other was Loki. Serving as a vessel for Ximola carried complex and profound emotions for both of them—one was a former mother, and the other was his own past life.

"What do you propose to do then? With demons gathered here in swarms, the Master's life is in grave peril," Wang Jin remarked.

"Very well then, Mr. Chu Yuan, we have no choice but to subject you to a legal trial. I hope you understand, even though you have committed no prior offenses." The officer heaved a sigh, seemingly feeling a sense of pity for Chu Yuan. Moments later, several men in police uniform stepped forward and escorted Chu Yuan away.

"Sage Friend, I only wish to ask how one might persuade that old fellow to provide treatment so that I may purge this demonic energy."

Before the scoreboards, a massive crowd of students had gathered. While most scores hovered around four or five hundred, a striking score of 750 completely dazzled everyone's eyes.

The hostility within Xiao Chen's heart intensified even further, a sharp smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. With a burst of speed, he darted past the aged wooden boat, trailing a thin ribbon of fine wine as he sprinted forward, instantly materializing on the topmost floor of the Tianxiang Restaurant.
