Chapter 40: Demolition Notice

After leaving the village committee office, the crowd did not disperse in a hurry. The village chief had mentioned earlier that once the leasing matters were settled, they would consider whether to divide up the mulberry fields and orchards. However, An Songyu felt this was unlikely. After all, those truly interested in the orchards had already gone in to consult with the committee. Sure enough, after that scattered group of villagers went inside, no one else made a move.

A short while later, Qiang Liang breathed a sigh of relief again, looking toward the unicorn wolf and realizing it was only a step away from the trap.

Sophie had not expected Song Zhong to say such things; her face turned ugly, and she trembled with rage.

Even Yi Hong did not sense it, which filled him with surprise. This dense forest was a world apart from the outside, presumably isolated by a defensive formation.

Li Rourou grew more excited with every thought, leaning continuously toward me until, for a moment, she was nearly collapsed in my arms.

Zhuo Yu had expected Ye Guangrong to let him off, but he never imagined Ye would suddenly turn on him. His legs went weak, and he collapsed onto the ground.

Ji Yanfei did not know why she had suddenly kissed Ling Li. After she did, she felt a trace of regret and did not know how she would face him in the future.

"Mr. Zhu, what are you saying? Ruan Chen is a descendant of the Silver-Blooded War God?" Situ Jing asked, astonished. How could this be? Was it not said that after the Holy King was defeated, he led the remaining forces to flee the Forty-Nine Heavens and entered that expanse of stars at the edge of the world?

"Since you still want to play the hero, I will trample you underfoot first!" Xuan Yuanhen Luo charged out and kicked Yi Ai to the ground; Yi Ai appeared to have no power to resist at all.

In the Heavenly Court nowadays, the immortals are not that busy. Anyone who says otherwise is either trying to slack off or looking for a bribe.

"Hmph, you two idiots. I saw with my own eyes that Ruan Chen was practicing in your classroom yesterday afternoon, and he wasn't drunk at all. Is this how you disturb him?" Ling Huo'er pinched her nose, clearly disgusted by the smell of alcohol on them.

"Hehe, I will definitely take you to listen for a while later and show you my true talent." Zhou Min was no longer shy and spoke with refreshing openness.

Lu Xu suddenly stopped, pondered for a moment, and deer antlers sprouted from his forehead. His long robes shook out, flowing through the air with the luster of moonlight.

Hongjun’s fingers twitched, and he woke abruptly from his slumber, gasping for air. He was shivering all over, feeling as miserable as if he had fallen into an ice cavern.

Hongjun laughed, embracing him. Li Jinglong tore open their clothes and, ignoring his playfulness, pressed himself forward.

"What are you laughing at?" Because of the laughter, the atmosphere seemed to soften, and Yang Jiaying was not as tense as before.

The Emperor's "Sun and Moon Shining Together" had actually knocked the avatar of the Outer Realm Demon to the ground. Zhang Sanfeng was incredibly surprised; having fought the avatar personally, he had an intuitive understanding of its strength.

As the dim daylight arrived and the sun hid behind the dark clouds, A-Tai held Turandot’s long whip, his eyes filled with tears as he stared blankly at the gloomy sky.

Although Wu Hua felt somewhat helpless, he remembered that he had not called his parents for a long time. He comforted his mother with a playful, coaxing tone, saying that his studies had been too busy for him to find the time.

The old man in the gray robe curled his lips into a sinister smirk; instead of pursuing, he grabbed Jin Suanzi and flew off into the sky.

He had not realized that time had slipped by until October. If he guessed correctly, the Pumpkin Alliance's "City in the Sky" should be nearing completion.

A knock at the door sounded. Meng Xiao shook off his chaotic thoughts and looked out the window; it was already late into the night. Who could it be at such an hour?
