The large stone’s current identity made it difficult for him to remain at the trading scene; the involvement of Bowen Tower was not appropriate in this matter.
Gu Heng watched as the auction agent put down his phone, realizing that the two powerful figures who had just competed with him had both withdrawn. His gaze then shifted toward Frederick Arnaud, seated on the opposite side.
After a brief conversation and as night fell, they were assigned separate guest rooms. Gu Qingyuan went off to meditate and replenish his magical power, spending the night in peace.
Although there had been rumors, pairing attempts, and CP speculation, all were easily explained as promotional efforts to support the production and maintain the work’s popularity.
Sixty thousand—nearly seventy thousand insect crystals—this was undeniably a score worthy of topping the charts, and by a wide margin. Mulan Qingqing had no doubt about this and doubted there was any higher achievement.
Before the last sentence was finished, a hand suddenly reached out from the carriage, pushing back the cursing Sixth Prince.
“Lord Yinshan, you…” Hu Yanran began to speak, but Lord Yinshan’s eyes flashed with a crimson light. Drawing his knife, he covered dozens of steps in a single bound and struck down with a slash.
The movement complete, hearing Xu Yanqing’s light laughter from behind, Lu Linlin felt her face flush even hotter. She feigned calm and glanced at the other two.
Zhao Dingshan thrust his spear, striking the arm armor. Gu Qingyuan followed the momentum with a deft pivoting punch to the spear shaft.
It was common knowledge among the penthouse staff that Xiang Wan had a wealthy second-generation boyfriend. Many envied her openly and secretly.
The death aura was gradually being controlled. Under the control of the lone star, even if it enveloped a tender sprout, it could ensure the sprout’s safety.
Although Li Zixiao thought this way, he felt too embarrassed to stop Qin Xiqian, who was already full of excitement and ready to act. Seeing Qin Xiqian’s confident, almost predestined look of victory, Li Zixiao truly did not want to see her become disappointed and depressed.

In truth, what was even more frustrating than this frail state was the fleeting, elusive fragments of memory.
Is this the person who insisted on bringing her back? Regardless of her wishes, ignoring her pleas, forcibly separating her from her brother—this was not a rescue but a robbery. To tear her away from her brother’s side was an unforgivable sin.
Gu Yongfeng, drunk and muddled, answered irrelevantly, seemingly growing increasingly forgetful of the name Zhang Tie.
After such a long period of cultivation, Luo Caiyu understood the harshness of the cultivation world. Although she did not shy away from killing, she would never kill without reason. So after deciding to kill, she sought out several villains as her targets.
“Don’t leave just yet. Brother wants to spend some quality time with you. Tomorrow, ask your mentor when the latest you can leave is!” Shen Xing Wuyi said this, and Ye Yuhuan laughed as if enchanted, her laughter light and carefree.
“What about Ma Tao?” Lin Hai had been eager to know Ma Tao’s whereabouts since yesterday. As an undercover police officer, he was the most determined to bring this cancer to justice.
On the wedding day, Murong Feng and Han Siyou did not attend, only sending gifts, which was already considerate enough. Had they truly gone, Ye Chen would have felt truly betrayed.
“Sir, normally a sheep isn’t worth much, usually priced at 1,800 yuan, but since you offered twenty times the price, naturally it’s higher.” Seeing Zhang Guangli’s demeanor, the boss also recognized this captain as a coward and spoke with more confidence.
Jeramy weakly lifted her head, her eyes obscured by blood, only faintly perceiving vague figures. Yet she still sensed the danger to her companions and struggled to get up, trying to rush forward.
After a while, Sakuya entered a place resembling an underground passage, and after Elrico followed down, he spat out old blood.
Of course, this had an upside: the iron-blooded warriors chasing Ahong believed this mysterious and powerful figure had found a way into the level and fallen into the trap set by Muse, so they withdrew from the pyramid to continue fighting Amazon warriors.
“Ugh…” Xiao Mengyu’s eyes, just beginning to glow, suddenly dimmed, drawing laughter from others.

“Master Gu Feng, you are truly so understanding and kind! These are two sets of Du’s family’s painstakingly acquired Du’e Dan medicinal herbs.” Du Jiang beamed, presenting the two sets with a smile.
Although he wanted Gu Feng to participate in the South Huang Grand Martial Arts Competition, the ten slots had already been decided. Forcing a replacement, even if accepted, would leave a rift and harm the unity of the academy.
“Ah, don’t mention it. I went out to play today, got caught in the rain, and ended up catching a cold.” Gao Yuan was much better physically but wanted no further involvement in Wang Tao’s matters.
However, this thought flashed briefly and vanished from Melganis’s mind. Since he could not be used by the legion, no matter how great his talent, there was no need for his existence.
Shao Yangqiu was also frightened, immediately withdrawing his hand and trembling like a dog, cowering before Lin Yuan.
He watched as the stone-filled box was carried in, then saw the box full of gold, silver, and jewels carried out with his own eyes.
This operation was still lacking in consideration, mainly due to his inexperience; now, he could only proceed step by step.
The current insect king was no longer as formidable as before. Even if its power was temporarily bestowed upon Wang Changlin, it would only grant him strength at the Transcendent Realm. Its own cultivation had fallen to the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm.
