Chapter 27: An Old Acquaintance from a Past Life
Ye Changzheng had just been handling oysters and hadn't washed his hands yet, so he could only turn and hold Xie Jinyu in a loose embrace.
"Xiao Yu, it’s my fault. I should have told you sooner that I have a younger sister."
Ye Changzheng hadn't told Xie Jinyu about Linglong from the beginning. He could imagine how Xie Jinyu must have felt when, after her husband had been drinking, she heard him calling out a clearly feminine name.
Perspective shift.
Uchiha Fugaku was also frowning deeply at this moment, though he did feel genuine dissatisfaction regarding Habara’s impeachment of his actions.
Once they left Gusu City, the scenery gradually changed. Wei Yangyang was filled with curiosity; she lifted the sedan curtain and peered outside with interest.
During the meal, Bai Xinyao’s eyes kept darting toward Lu Beiran, but Lu Beiran only kept his head down and ate. She pouted, seemingly quite unhappy.
In that instant, Turner decided to immediately cancel the "Cloud-Summoning and Mist-Calling" spell he had been maintaining, but something even more bizarre occurred: the incantation seemed to stop obeying his commands, showing no signs of dissipating at all.
Tallo found a spot in an inconspicuous corner and sat down. Grace sat beside him naturally, with Undine following close behind.
"How can you be so sure Tallo isn't here? For all we know, he might be watching us fight each other right now, waiting to reap the rewards," Mansha said, rubbing her temples with a headache.
Without the power of one’s bloodline as a foundation, these eyes would not have wavered in the slightest, even with sufficient energy absorption.
The clothes in the room were of the finest material and fit, and could be taken out of the room, or even into the Main God Space and horror movies.
"What do you lot think you’re doing?" Tang Sheng swallowed hard. He was a young man with a hot temper, but he didn't want to suffer an immediate loss; if a real fight broke out, the cost would outweigh the gain.
When the dealer opened the steel cover sealing the cards, Rong Li saw the three face-up cards on the table. Her temples throbbed violently once more, and she turned her head to glare at the man on the sofa in disbelief.
Liang Xinyi went to the hospital to check if she had been infected with HIV, but the results would take a month to come out; for her, the long wait was a form of torture.
"Captain, just give the order! We guarantee we’ll complete the combat mission within twenty minutes!" Yang Yingquan said immediately to Wang Si, indicating that they could resolve the battle in twenty minutes flat.
The beast, having just had its contract dissolved, was a bit confused when it heard Yun Huang’s voice, but once it realized what was happening, it was immediately overjoyed.
"All set." Si Cheng had booked a first-class ticket for her online and handed her ID card back to her.
Yun Jinli nodded. Seeing Feng Qingyun’s relaxed demeanor, she really wondered how he, the Ghost Emperor, could be so unreliable.
Mu Feichi didn't let Yun Xi get involved in the divorce between Liang Xiuqin and Yun Yuanfeng; he used his own connections, and the court granted the divorce without Yun Yuanfeng even being present.
Here, the stars served as the ground, and the Milky Way flowed in the sky. Yue Qianhuan and Mo Jiuqing sat back-to-back, closing their eyes to enjoy the quiet moment.
Yun Jinli replied that she hadn't seen everyone in a long time and thought she would take this opportunity to call them all together for a gathering.
He saw her haggard face and felt a pang of heartache. He took her hand and whispered softly.
Since things had reached this point, he had to give his son an explanation. Zhao Tianyi nodded hurriedly.
Lin Yumeng listed several urgently needed medicinal herbs and asked Hehua to help her gather them, while she herself crouched under a rock wall to meticulously craft poison. As a miracle doctor from the 21st century, Lin Yumeng knew more than just how to save lives; she was also skilled in creating various poisons, capable of concocting even the most lethal toxins in the world.
Although the Phoenix Clan seemed to have vanished, they had retained much of their former influence. Now led by the Cold Palace, they stood in direct opposition to Night Emperor Mountain. They had been fighting for nearly ten thousand years, with neither side able to destroy the other. The Phoenix Clan had shifted from the light into the shadows, breaking themselves up to hide throughout the Tianwu Continent.
