Chapter 55 Dining Together

Zhu Jingwen wiped away her tears and composed herself, though her voice still carried a slight sob.

"Xiaolong was also switched at birth. When we finally returned him to his biological parents, they had thought he died when he was born. Seeing him safe and sound, they were beside themselves with joy. Cao Yue has truly harmed far too many people."

Lu Mingyue nodded in agreement and asked, "What is Cao Yue's situation now?"

"We reported him to the public security authorities, and the higher-ups launched an investigation into this matter. Cao Yue..."

Knowing that my physical strength was immense and that even with his Supreme Grandmaster physique he could not match mine, Lin Xian had no choice but to unleash his Hua-qi force. Pressing his fingers together like a sword, he slashed a dazzling sword Qi down toward me.

Although the Water Talisman had already been acquired, the Earth Talisman remained unclaimed, prompting many to try their luck in the Barren Plains.

His mastery of the Dao of Space could already be considered that of a grandmaster. At a single glance, he could tell that every blade stroke unleashed by his opponent embodied the first four realms of spatial power.

Li Guyu's heart was filled with apprehension. This ordeal was simultaneously an opportunity and a challenge.

By the early morning of the next day, the military camp stationed fifteen miles outside Chang'an had quietly and silently vanished for the most part.

Having spent more time adventuring in the Northern Sacred Domain, he returned there, sought out a deep mountain, carved out a cave dwelling, and retreated into seclusion.

"Very well! Last time you used the Thousand-Mechanism Capricorn Technique, but this time I refuse to believe you'd dare use it again!" Luo Xiu roared in fury.

The Ninth Exile Land was vast beyond measure; any random pit could be sealed off with restrictive formations. Were they expected to open and inspect them one by one?

However, once the matter blew up, the Heavenly Emperor issued a direct command to execute Jin Baitian and the others to serve as a warning to others.

"Regardless of whether it is true or false, we must go and explore. They say the Snowy Domain is filled with rare treasures and heavenly resources; with a bit of luck, we might actually stumble upon them." Ye Chen was not about to let such an opportunity slip by. Giving up without even attempting it simply was not his style.

Couldn't you directly control the phone remotely? Was that phone merely for show—just to scan codes and put up a front when buying groceries and the like?

Shi Siyun explained that she had originally wanted Qin Huairu to witness her wedding, but now she intended to answer the call for "late marriage and late childbearing" and did not want to be tied down by a family too early, as she hadn't had enough fun yet.

In the past, Silly Zhu often distributed the leftover food and dishes to everyone, sharing the bounty equally. Now, apart from letting the struggling Liu Lan take some home, no one else received anything. Liu Lan had a sharp tongue just like Silly Zhu, but her heart was good—also just like Silly Zhu—and she kept this extra consideration deeply in mind.

Days of consecutive morning jogs had trained his body into a biological clock; no matter how late he went to sleep the night before, he would wake up punctually at the break of dawn.

"Sister Bai, didn't you tell me you didn't like the Seventh Prince?" Xi Siniang felt as though she had been struck over the head with a heavy club. Trembling all over with rage, she felt as though even her blood vessels were about to burst open.

The icy-cold voice echoed through the empty villa, chilling one's very blood to the bone like a netherworld judge from hell.

For some reason, Baili Lu felt that the look Rongyue cast her way held an unfathomable hint of hatred.

"What? There are guns?" The wealthy young master, this very Master Chen, reacted like a startled rabbit; if the car door hadn't been closed, he would have dived straight inside.

These words fell upon Zhu Chuchu's ears, instantly darkening her expression. Consumed by intense unwillingness, she ground her teeth so hard it seemed they might shatter.

Only the dragon-python glared with eyes the size of millstones, anxiously glancing back and forth at Jiang Chen while curiously staring at the gigantic lid ahead, wide-eyed and utterly frozen in place.

Led by the Black Wolf, Dou Zhanlong and his party passed through the woods and successfully entered the core area of the West Market. While it appeared peaceful on the surface, it was actually bustling with activity.

In his anxious concern for others, Xu Nanshan had temporarily overlooked these details. It seemed he would need to cooperate well with Su Xintian; otherwise, her painstaking arrangements would truly go to waste.

On the twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month, the Kitchen God ascends to heaven. Legend has it that on this day, the Kitchen God ascends to the celestial realm to report on his duties and integrity to the Jade Emperor, recounting everything he has witnessed among the common folk.
