Volume One, Chapter 161: Trying to Steal a Chicken and Losing the Rice

This person is Chen Ying. She is Chu You’s roommate, and the two share a close relationship.

Chen Ying shuddered, looking at Su Ningxia with a guilty conscience. "It... it's nothing."

Su Ningxia’s gaze slowly settled on Chen. "Then why were you acting so suspiciously in my dorm?"

Watching Sheng Aotian’s embarrassed expression, the Ai sisters covered their mouths and giggled. Sheng Aotian, faced with the clawing and glaring Wei Si, instantly lost his temper.

"My perfume-making craft wasn't just learned in Da Qi; I also received guidance from a Western perfumer," Xu Lu boasted smugly.

As a highly educated professional, she was surrounded by many excellent men, yet for some reason, she never felt a spark. As she grew older, her family stopped pressuring her, saying that being too anxious would only make it harder to find a good match.

Gu Yao thought to herself, "So their eyesight is poor; they probably can't see anything from a distance." Looking at the dim, flickering light, she wondered how one could possibly conduct an autopsy under such conditions.

However, since they had already reached this point, if they employed a strategy of capturing the leader to defeat the followers, they might have a chance of taking down Shi Siming before reinforcements arrived. Qin Tianci and Liang Yin, with only their eyes visible, exchanged a look; they had already steeled themselves for this gamble.

Seeing the dagger in You Yu's hand, Suha quickly retreated several steps, thoroughly startled by her.

When Bai Shu went to the company practice room, he remembered Rong Can telling him that he looked cute wearing the rabbit suit and dancing the rabbit dance. However, thinking back to how cumbersome that mascot costume had been, he ultimately dismissed the idea.

Those fox-masked people—their motives, from the town of Sushui to the inn in Shangcai, were clearly perilous.

Ye Qingqing ate for a while before realizing that she was the only one eating, as the great Zhizhi didn't seem to be eating at all.

"That guy didn't get in trouble for skipping class, did he?" Bai Hui tossed and turned, unable to sleep. After checking his phone dozens of times and confirming that a certain someone wasn't going to message him, he tossed the phone aside.

The two had already spotted the demonic beasts, which naturally meant they had long since been discovered by those creatures as well.

In the desert cavern, three or four giant pythons were coiled together, skin against skin, scales against scales, inseparable and intertwined.

Although Chu Qingyan didn't understand the situation, seeing two warriors fall right before her eyes left her pale with terror.

As for how she managed to break the limit of the highest-ranked Soul Sage, it was thanks to Tang San, who used the power of the Sea God to forcefully shatter the barrier. This allowed Ning Rongrong’s eighth soul skill, "Seven-Colored Divine Light" (a full-attribute boost), and her ninth soul skill, a domain-type ability, to manifest.

As for Lin Ruoxue, she was already feeling miserable, and Lin Zhennan’s dramatic performance at this moment only served to put her in an even worse mood.

"Keep me company for a drink." Cao Qingyang walked inside immediately. Although Yang Ming was somewhat anxious, he didn't understand what Cao Qingyang was up to, so he followed him in to see.

Looking out, the entire world was filled with dense pillars of spiritual energy. Even Ling Tian had been pierced through by them.

Yang Bo thought of the coal bosses centuries later—men who owned coal mines but never stepped foot in them, spending their days mingling in major cities under the guise of "networking." In reality, they and this Bian Hailong were all the same: nouveau riche, birds of a feather.

Liu Fengfeng carefully examined Yang Ming’s right arm and felt his pulse, a smile appearing for the first time on her elegant yet stern face.

Pu Zixun even proposed investing silver to fill in land and create more terrain, stating that even if he could only keep two hundred and fifty mu out of the five hundred filled, he would not regret it.
