Volume 1, Chapter 30: Good Heavens! The World’s Number One ‘Simp’

Xie Zheng suddenly struck, plunging a gold hairpin into Lin Buyu’s temple. Blood streamed down, and Lin Buyu’s eyes widened in sheer disbelief.

Grabbing him by the hair, Xie Zheng handled the wretch like a lifeless object; being pierced through the temple was a death sentence.

Yuan Ying looked around at the others, who would not be waking up for some time. He signaled to Hippolyta and decided to head back with Diana. Since Diana was still in the midst of her cultivation, Yuan Ying simply brought her into the world of the Xuanyuan Sword.

They possessed the most exceptional bodies, undertook the most dangerous tasks, and reveled in the adoration of the masses and the thrill of battling evil.

In the distance lay Xiao Qing’s clubhouse. Because the guests had turned against the host and refused to attend Yi Bei’s banquet any longer, many were leaving in succession.

As the flames intensified, the two of them began to falter. Even if they wanted to escape using space and time abilities, it was impossible; the surrounding area was sealed by a formation, and this star-fire could corrode space and time itself, making resistance futile.

Li Shun said aggrievedly, "Grandmother, you and the other ancestors have always lived in seclusion, waiting only for the appearance of the gods. How could I dare to trouble you with such matters?"

It turned out that after Prince Shunyi, Boshitu, arrived at Yima City outside the borders of Yulin Garrison to request surrender, the border generals, realizing the gravity of the situation, immediately sought instructions from Chen Qiyu, the Yansui Administration Commissioner stationed at Yulin.

"Not necessarily," Tang Nian said. "The existence of the Ghost Realm, or even the Immortals, is constrained by the Heavenly Dao. Those of too high a realm are not permitted to enter our world. However, unlike the Immortal Realm, the low and middle tiers of the Ghost Realm can find ways to descend into the human world."

"No, no, just call me Mom. It sounds so wonderful to me!" Ye Cuilan said quickly, a heart-warming smile on her face.

"Get lost, you jerk," Mu Bai spat at Lin Chuan, climbing out of his arms and onto the bed. She pulled the sheet over her face, refusing to look at him again.

In Wang Hui’s mind, Li An was not only his idol but also his boss and his benefactor.

"Hello, Second Aunt," Mo Ke said quickly. Feeling the woman’s meaningful, scrutinizing gaze, even with his Foundation Establishment cultivation, Mo Ke felt deeply uncomfortable, as if he were being seen through.

In my previous transformation, my skin tone remained natural, but now, in my second-stage transformation, my skin has turned a bronze-brown.

Perhaps because of Bi Qianmo’s powerful aura, or perhaps because he had guessed her thoughts, Lin Bixiao found herself unable to speak clearly.

In a booth at the hotel’s second-floor café, Bi Qianmo and Ming Wei had been sitting opposite each other for a long time, yet neither had spoken a word.

"..." Crying wouldn't solve the problem. I let go of Wang Yuan and wiped away my tears. "Brother... just you wait! I will definitely find the killer and make him kneel before you to apologize!" As soon as the words left my lips, I sprinted out of the classroom.

Lin Zheng hesitated for a while, as if pondering something, before finally speaking after a long pause: "Lin Xi is your biological sister! You must protect her well and not let any strangers get close to her!" Lin Zheng frowned, gripping Wang Yuan’s shoulders as he spoke.

Thinking of how much Luo Wanmei trusted Liu Shi, Mo Ke understood almost instantly: if anything happened to Luo’s Jewelry at the Myanmar Jadeite Auction, the company would likely fall apart and collapse completely.

With the meteorite smelting settled, Mo Ke returned to his room to begin his cultivation. He practiced through the night, and early the next morning, he drove to Elder Huang’s residence.

Lin sat up straight, put down her phone, and patted her face with both hands to perk herself up. Regardless of anything else, raising enough money was the right move. As for what happened before or after, that could be dealt with later.
