Volume 1, Chapter 44: Disdain

Yang Wenhao is truly shameless, attempting to deny Lin Yu's contribution at a time like this.

However, far from listening to his dissuasion, the two women—overwhelmed by a surge of gratitude and affection—ran straight toward Lin Yu and embraced him tightly!

Mu Rou-shuang pressed her entire body close to Lin Yu's embrace, tears streaming down her face!

"Lin Yu, thank you!"

She sobbed softly, completely disregarding worldly conventions and the gazes of onlookers! She only wanted to express her deepest gratitude to Lin Yu!

"..."

Feeling the softness and warmth of Mu Rou-shuang's chest, Lin Yu felt a sudden, profound stirring deep within his heart!

For Mu Rou-shuang's action required not only genuine emotion, but also extraordinary courage!

He gently patted Mu Rou-shuang's delicate...

"Then, I'll count to three, and we'll start running together." Seeing Youyou take the bait, Huihui didn't give her time to think and hurriedly began counting.

Under the bombardment of that sword beam, Luo Yi's Spirit-Sealing Array trembled violently and then rapidly collapsed.

Mysteries containing foundational power could not be immunized or absorbed even by the Lightning Avatar, and the Furious Thunder Flash Bird was instantly knocked flying away.

Today she wore a reddish-brown long dress, topped with an eight-treasure exquisite hairpin that looked to be of considerable value.

The three hands gradually transformed into tens of thousands of palm shadows, as if countless Wu Fans were attacking the barrier simultaneously. Hong Meng watched in extreme astonishment.

Yang Xu didn't dare enter the city at all. Throwing these hundred-plus people into the city would be no different from serving up their heads on a platter. There were over a thousand people on the opposing side; ten against one would crush you even without weapons.

"Leave that to me. Bai Yu, take him down first, and I'll cover the rear." Ximen Li did not dare let Bai Yu and Yu have any opportunity to be alone together. He strongly suspected that Yu was behind the exposure of this operation.

"Wu Fan, you must listen to your elder sister. If you run into her next time, you must find a way to remove her veil, and you will surely see Luo Shi," Lü'er said.

Only now, with the appearance of people from the Tianyin Immortal Sect's Gong family, did Wu Fan remember. Without a doubt, this was yet another piece of information sold by the Shadow Sect.

"I really don't know about this." Rubbing his hair in frustration, Li Weitao was also tormented with regret. Why on earth had he dragged her into this? Now her fate was unknown, and what was he supposed to do?

Yet the flames of war were about to spread to Zhuji County. If that place fell, could Xiang Zhuang possibly remain sitting still?

She almost thought that he would never wake up again, that he would slumber away in another world alongside the person he loved most.

The moment Xuangong Wuchang made his move, Zhiming knew things were turning bad. Xuangong Wuchang had been completely provoked by Chen Xiao.

Although Shen Lianghe presented himself as harmless as a domestic animal in front of his own people, Chu Zheng was well aware of this partner's true style of doing things.

"Damn it... The tactic has been exposed, everyone charge together!" From the rubble on the right, a swordsman wielding a long sword shouted at the top of his lungs and immediately leaped out.

In a daze, Yi Tianchen felt a slight prick at the back of his neck, just like a mosquito bite. Knowing that this was the system acquiring a blood sample as mentioned, he didn't pay it much mind, instead closely examining the ancient temple, which was filled with an atmosphere of mystery and oppression.

"This old man was merely passing by and found it intolerable to see the strong bullying the weak. As for my name, there's no need to mention it!" that person replied indifferently.

Still, come to think of it, Han Zihe felt she truly ought to express her heartfelt gratitude to her martial uncle—her master's senior martial brother.

"I'm afraid that will still have to rely on the Number One!" Qianye and Supreme Treasure both looked toward Yi Tianchen.

Stephen and his party returned to the team in the morning, and training camp gathered that afternoon. Those players who hadn't participated in the All-Star Game had also returned intact, all looking exceptionally refreshed. After all, nearly a week of rest time was quite rare and precious for these players.

"Old He!" Gu Le was startled. Although he was a transmigrator, the technology in this society was far too advanced, and all kinds of information flooded the internet. A quick search on Baidu provided crystal-clear details, and Gu Le knew a thing or two about the Gambling King of Macau. In Hong Kong and Macau, mentioning simply "the Gambling King" was enough for people to know it referred to Old He.

"What?" For a moment, Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't catch the meaning of Nie's words. But sensing movement behind him, he panicked and dodged to the side, throwing two dangerous-looking gems behind him.

"Where are my heavily wounded friends? Can you take me to see them?" Fang Haotian asked politely, then casually glanced at the mobsters squatting on the ground in handcuffs.

Elder He would throw tantrums and curse for the sake of his eldest son, He Yan'an. But Fang Haotian, out of sheer protectiveness, cared nothing for a nation's wealth—he only wanted to vent his anger for his family. Getting a member list of the Heavenly Punishment organization was no different from getting a free giveaway.

Chen Chunsheng looked at the city walls, where the traces of fire and burning were still faintly visible, and stood there in a slight daze.

Wei Yan, standing behind Huang Zhong, cast a covert, disdainful glance at Sun Ce, seemingly looking down upon this pretentious young aristocrat who asked such naive questions, though Sun Ce remained oblivious. Wei Yan's attention was entirely captivated by that pair of beautiful, wide-eyed stares.

After uttering this mocking remark with a sneer, Xiaoyaotian quietly claimed a spot and stood there, staring straight ahead without shifting his gaze.

However, already accustomed to her older sister's ways, she didn't have any particular thoughts, simply casting a curious look into the room to verify her own guess.

The problem, however, was that Xiang Ji's praise for him had stirred up some rather special sentiments in the hearts of these scholars.

Growing increasingly delighted, Wang Liushan followed Zhao Liansheng's instructions without a moment's delay, dashed out of Zhao Liansheng's office, grabbed a bicycle, and pedaled frantically toward Xiamuntun Village.

"No! I don't want it anymore. I don't want this black ganoderma! Sell it to the second person who called out the price," the bidder shouted loudly upon hearing Jiang Feng's words.

Diana froze on the spot. Accepting the gift, she said nothing, merely pulling out a handkerchief to gently wipe away the corners of Charles's eyes.

Later, Boss Dai washed his hands of the underworld and handed the gang's business over to Second Master Dai. Within two years, a province-wide crackdown hit. Second Master Dai went inside, loyal enough to take the fall for all of Boss Dai's crimes, and was inevitably sentenced to death. It was rumored that the cop who personally arrested Second Master Dai back then was Mai Zi's father, Dai Cheng'an.

"No, I'm not going back. We'll wait until he gets off work." Wang Zijun acted as though he cared nothing at all for the cold reception he had received.

This could be considered a chain of schemes—a plot within a plot. It would be best if Dai Hongyi could knock Yun Mu off his high horse; even if he met with a flat refusal, it wouldn't matter. Given the relationship between Li Liang and Dai Hongyi, once Dai Hongyi suffered a loss, Li Liang would not sit idly by.

"To me, it's all the same. If I say it is so, then it is." Do you understand why she was so beautiful yet so unlikable?

"As long as you know you were wrong." He shook his upper body; this was the last piece of clothing he had that was still somewhat intact.

The Pope listened with relish to Chen Ji's explanation of the Succubus race, seeming to understand Chen Ji's train of thought a little. When Chen Ji mentioned Lancelot helping the Succubus race hunt down juvenile Hellhounds, the Pope smiled and interrupted him.

Although he didn't know what PK meant, since the drinks had already arrived, nothing else mattered; he would just go along with it.

Even though he was extremely reluctant to leave his mother, seeing that his last bit of Tai Chi energy was about to dissipate and separate, he had no choice but to go and resolve his father Zhan Keqing's problem first.
