Yet Zhao Weimin searched thoroughly but found no identification on the other party. The down jacket pocket was empty, as if they had appeared out of thin air in this vast snowy forest without carrying a single thing. No one knew where they came from, nor where they were headed. Why had they appeared in this place? The answer would only be revealed once they woke up.

...

Mei Rao truly exuded overwhelming dominance. This was her sore spot. Although she had never formally apprenticed under Master Mingxiu, she was still a standout within the Xianglin inner sect. Yet the Taihua Sect, blind to true talent, had relegated all former Xianglin disciples to the outer sect.

Dazed, Song Ersheng heard the nurse’s startled cries and the rushing footsteps of the doctors, and then she lost all awareness.

Startled by Ding Xiu’s sudden fright, the crowd babbled among themselves but still moved, heading toward the paintings on the wall. Once each entered the floral sea depicted within the paintings, they found the surroundings dim and shadowed, as if immersed in a dense gray mist.

The Eldest Elder of the Ji family regarded her with a scrutinizing gaze. Lin Qing inwardly concluded that the elder had likely come seeking her.

Such formality placed immense pressure on Wangchuan Xuan Yali Mountain, prompting him to eagerly begin strategizing how to profit from Bi Luo City.

Jiu Yue smiled helplessly, knowing that Qiu Yu was teasing her, but it was precisely this teasing that left Jiu Yue somewhat at a loss on how to respond.

Hua Jing nodded slightly to the lead guard, flicked her sleeve, and walked out, followed promptly by the guards.

However, Gao Feng paid it no mind. There was nothing improper in revealing these matters; even if Xiang Chong knew, what harm could it do? Did he dare harbor ill intentions?

The Five-Star Heavenly Gang Demon-Slaying Formation was no ordinary array. Its defense was composed of fifteen mystical treasures integrated together, with attendants constantly reinforcing it. It was akin to an impregnable fortress, perpetually self-repairing.

What if they could not unite for now? The spiritual bond alone was enough to make their current life unforgettable and to promise a reunion in the next.

Moreover, the brother-in-law came from a prestigious family. The goons had no reason to offend them, much less dare to cause trouble in their residence. This finally gave Gu Sanliang a true place to settle and live in peace.

This time, Gu Qinghan’s survival meant that Leper Nine was safe as well, easing the heavy weight hanging over Gu Sanliang’s heart.

Though Lin Yan’s group had dwindled to five, they still had a seventh-level divine master and a sixth-level divine master, giving them a clear advantage in strength.

The moonlight was at its fullest. The person seemed to have stepped out from the moonbeams themselves, exuding an ethereal grace. Flowing sleeves and fluttering long hair—likely no fairy of the Guanghan Palace could surpass such beauty.

Lin Su did not know whether she felt anger or pity; she was simply vexed. Neglecting to wash or change, she rushed downstairs.

The Snake King had indeed become somewhat supernatural, sometimes protecting its master based on its own understanding. At the outset of Bai Shanglu’s betrayal, a disloyal confidant plotted an assassination in the dead of night but was mercilessly slain by the snake coiled on the rafters—an intensely bloody scene.

Xiang Xiang was a straightforward girl, loving and hating clearly. Just by saying this, she instantly felt a slight improvement in her impression of Qiao Zimo.

“Hmph!” Lin Yan, looking at the enraged man, snorted coldly and unleashed the spiritual energy she had been accumulating directly at him.

Zi Qian, facing the three, remained somewhat hesitant. General Yang was crucial to the nation, and it would be best to keep him. Yet he had promised Jin Bai, and retracting that promise now would surely be seen as breaking his word.

I sat with Big Qiao in the backseat of Uncle Qiao’s SUV. Some were joyful, some sorrowful, as we headed toward Peach Blossom Mountain. Suddenly, a message came from “Second Senior Brother” in my phone contacts.

But to let her give up so easily? Wei Lianer felt deeply reluctant and thus hesitated.

“Let’s wait and see. Since the ‘old’ powers dare to put themselves out in the open like this, they must have some backing.” Zhao Jia was clearly more cautious than Qian Yi, often making decisions for the team.

In this way, the two terrorists were fully exposed. Li Lin and Yuna, one by one, using their exquisite marksmanship and close range, executed them.

As the saying goes, the body is the foundation of revolution. Only with good health can one have the energy to pursue other endeavors.

A sharp whistle sounded. Before Li Lin and the others could react, Tuo Ke was struck by an arrow and died instantly.

“Rest assured, precisely because of safety concerns, I’ve given this to you. You can use it in heavy industry, deep underwater, in snowy mountains, or other dangerous places,” Lin Xiafan told them with a smile.

Shangguan Wan’er had been quietly observing Six Jin’s expression. His discouragement had not escaped her keen eyes, and alongside her curiosity about Xie Huaiyu’s identity, a subtle sense of helpless guilt arose within her.

The last candlelight dinner invitation—Qin Tian hadn’t exactly stood Murong Jiao up; he truly had matters preventing him from attending. Murong Jiao held no grudge, and that meeting also involved Xiao Lan and Zhang Xinyu, tied to a wager, making it a date with a special purpose, which somewhat spoiled the mood.

Guo Dalu immediately dismissed the idea and resolved to “definitely stop” it.

I wrapped my arms around his waist, holding him close. I stood on tiptoe, parted my lips slightly, and kissed his sensual lips. I wanted him to taste my tears — salty and bitter.

Li Zhi also understood that now was not the time to ask; speaking recklessly would only make him seem like he was prying into Cleopatra’s affairs.

“You really are a stubborn child,” Mu Yunfeng sighed gloomily, holding her hand.

Before I could speak, he opened his umbrella and got out of the car, running toward me. I grabbed Junjun’s sushi, hid under his umbrella, and entered the corridor safely.

Qin Jingyu listened with a smile, nodded, asked detailed questions, then scanned the surroundings, memorizing the terrain before finally leading the group back.

Time froze at that moment. The carriage carried the one he had longed for day and night. She was still so beautiful, so radiant. Although she had been traveling for only a few days, there was no trace of fatigue. It seemed the emperor brother cared for her well.
