Volume 1, Chapter 33: I Cannot Divorce Him.

However, Lu Hong’s recent words pulled Zhaoxia from her fantasies back to reality, forcing her to confront the true identity of Zhao Chengmin. Seeing the worry on Lu Xiang’er’s face and the look in Lu Hong’s eyes, how could Zhaoxia not realize that Lu Hong understood what she was thinking?

"Take good care of the Princess, and keep your chatter to yourselves," the Emperor commanded the wet nurses and palace maids before turning to head toward the Empress’s bedchamber.

"Hey! Have you forgotten about me?" The roar of the primary progenitor suddenly echoed from afar, startling the second-generation progenitor and Sun Yan, who both turned their heads in its direction.

As the words fell, a gust of night wind suddenly burst through the door, causing the solitary candle to flicker and nearly extinguish.

Chuxiu observed her as she walked. Even before getting close, one could sense an unshakeable air of aloofness and pride about Luan Su—not the arrogant, overbearing nature of Ming Ying, nor the affected, pretentious manner of Yun Xiangrong.

It was truly frustrating. With the decline of social morals, who would have thought a handsome man could be looked down upon like this? Had he known, he would have adjusted his appearance settings up by 20%, and today’s tragedy would never have occurred.

Sensing the obvious signs of fresh forging on the two weapons just pulled from the furnace, one could only imagine how remarkable the expressions on the two men’s faces were as they looked at Xiao Tie.

Looking at Ye Shun sitting beside Lu Hong, Lu Xiang’er finally understood why Song Yuan had left yesterday without eating lunch. He must have felt guilty, which was why he had Ye Shun arrive at the Lu residence early this morning to accompany the siblings to Qinghe Village.

In an instant, a layer of frost enveloped the members of the God Clan, freezing their bodies in place.

Although he could have completely blocked his perceptions to shut out the noise, that would have been even more troublesome; he had a simpler method.

She had deliberately brought up the topic earlier to put Ji Dongdong on alert, but she hadn't expected her boyfriend to show no concern, instead using those words to provoke her.

His vision gradually became consumed by the scarlet Kaleidoscope Sharingan; his consciousness grew increasingly blurred until he finally plunged into darkness.

Just then, leaders of all nations discovered via satellite that a massive fire had broken out on the border between Great America and the nation of Vina.

"You may rest assured on that point, gentlemen. I suspect none of you have visited our country of Hesui. You are welcome to go and see for yourselves in the next two days, or simply make some inquiries," Hesui Shanhe said with a smile, understanding their underlying concerns.

Among the ranks of the Anbu headquarters, a large number of ninjas from various clans had been integrated. After years of training, the Anbu headquarters had become the most elite force among Nawaki’s direct subordinates, and thus, they had to be taken along.

Yang Mei curled her lip. The girl always loved misusing idioms. How handsome could he be? Could he be more handsome than her boyfriend?

As the weather turned cold, Deng Er could still manage, but Witch Du seemed to struggle, shivering uncontrollably. Out of courtesy, Deng Er gave her his own clothes to wear. He practiced his techniques inside the tent to generate heat, and soon his whole body began to radiate warmth.

"How is the investigation into the country of Hesui going?" the Divine Doctor Tianjue asked with a gloomy face.

She walked on, her legs aching slightly. Yet, it was precisely this pain that made her feel a sense of reality.

It also made it easier for the wearer to gain insights into the Dao, sparking numerous inspirations; it was a rare and precious treasure.

So it was that, even now, when faced with framing and setbacks, she still believed that being brave would be enough to turn bad luck into good.

"By your logic, does that mean all of Huitang's training has a hidden purpose?" Qin Yu asked, unable to believe it. Could training really be designed to cover everything?

"Master, as long as you can save my brother, I am willing to give you as many soul crystals as you ask," the thin man said, crawling toward Ji Longteng on his knees.

Lu Wanqing pursed her cherry lips, thinking to herself that this man was definitely a weirdo. He drank that bitter black coffee without even adding sugar.

Admittedly, they had never actually seen a demon, and everything they knew about the demon race eating humans was merely hearsay from stories.

He ran desperately, praying silently that Shen Yihan had already retreated while he was away.

Immediately following, two massive bolts of lightning traced a beautiful arc as they struck toward Xu Fan’s body.

Yet in front of Lin Fan, the restrictions remained completely unchanged, allowing him to pass through; neither illusions nor offensive strikes were triggered.

She was mean-spirited, shrewish, and difficult to deal with. She never wore a kind face for me, always speaking in a sarcastic, biting tone.

Having made up her mind, Li Mo did not make Yu’er leave, allowing her to stay directly in the Merfolk’s dwelling.

In that instant, countless cultivators across this expanse of the heavens were eroded by that eerie power.

Qing Zijin’s face was flushed, and she forced herself to swallow the blood in her throat. Watching Mo Shuangsheng take a palm strike and fly backward, she was consumed by anxiety.

Ding-dong: Warning ineffective. First penalty: unable to initiate tasks for one day. Continue to spout nonsense, and the penalty will double.

"Don't worry. Your safety is the mission Team Leader Yang entrusted to me. I will do everything in my power to fulfill it, even if it means death! I won't let you suffer even the slightest injury!" Wang Ear said, his tone firm and resolute.

He carried a gentle aura, yet his eyes inexplicably gave one the feeling of having seen the vicissitudes of the world.

Shen Dazhuang left Hua Jiu and Lu Mengmeng behind and walked away. Judging by the direction, he was planning to sneak down the mountain again to earn spirit stones while the masters weren't looking.

"..." Hearing this, Qi Fan suddenly had nothing to say. Listening to the other party's sincere tone, it seemed he really couldn't find any fault with it.

He was never the type of person to cling tightly to money, nor would he cling to his worries.

A formidable mental energy erupted from Jun Yan’s body once more. That mental strength, which should have been on the verge of exhaustion, broke through again under Jun Yan’s stubborn persistence. Waves of vast, surging mental power poured forth, finally providing a temporary reprieve from his crisis.

Hearing her say no, the curator smiled even more kindly and took Tang Kexin’s hand. Han Yichen, watching from the side, felt his gaze sharpen.

Having handed the collaboration with CF over to Brad, Link stopped thinking about it for the moment. He was very busy now.

This time, the unit responsible for protecting the high-level officials should be small and elite; otherwise, if the other side realized the defensive force was too strong, they might not show themselves.

Before long, a high-pitched trumpet sound echoed through the rainforest. The Elephant Emperor was naturally pleased; it had been a long time since it had eaten its fill.

And this moment was the perfect opportunity for the two to act; otherwise, it would be troublesome if they were seen.

Perhaps his thinking was a bit paranoid, but he didn't want to deal with this issue over and over again. If he could resolve it once and for all, that would be for the best.

He turned and left. This time, as Jiang Ci watched his retreating back, something different flickered in the depths of her eyes.
