Chapter 48: The Abduction

Because the process was simple and involved repetitive actions, Yun Li, fearing that Leng Xiao might become impatient, occasionally asked him various questions to divert his attention.

“Mu Qing once made me a garment out of ghost spider silk. I still don’t know how that orc tailor managed to finish it in just four or five days. When I received the clothing, I thought my eyes were deceiving me.”

At the time, Yun Li was so delighted with the spider silk garment that she forgot to inquire about the details.

Hearing this, Leng Xiao paused briefly, then showed a complex expression on his face. “I know about that. If it were anyone else, they might not have used spider silk for clothing. But that orc was...”

Because the process was simple and repetitive, Yun Li, worried that Leng Xiao might lose patience, kept asking him various questions to keep him focused.

Out of the remaining ten questions, five were beyond her ability to solve, and the other five she didn’t even understand the problem statements.

Si Jiuyin wouldn’t force Li Han into blind dates; she could only wait until Li Han finished work to ask about her intentions.

“The child’s uncle was wrong, the uncle was wrong. I didn’t mean to hurt you,” pleaded the man who spoke first, kneeling on the ground and begging incessantly.

Chu Nian refused to give up. Just as her hand touched the large iron door at the cave entrance, she caught the scent of something burning.

A silver-haired elder’s eyes flashed with a fierce light. Upon seeing Lin Chen, he attacked immediately without any words.

Even Bo Yanting himself would crack a faint smile when hearing others tease him, despite his face being colder than a millennium-old ice.

Those years, Jiang Chen had buried his back in the soil just to survive; only by living could he raise his younger sister.

The apocalypse that Luo Ya lived through occurred in 2099, far removed from 1978. Initially, she disliked watching dramas from that era, but later, after receiving some videos from someone, she watched a bit and thus gained a slight understanding.

When Jiang Shu appeared, his previously calm expression first froze, then a trace of joy surfaced on his face.

Her porcelain-white, lotus-like arm slowly withdrew. She only remembered doing such a thing to Bo Yanting; if this man wasn’t him, she wouldn’t have acted this way.

Chu Qian wielded a sword, something Mu Yunlan knew well. But seeing him draw that sword was rare—the only time was in that valley, where, due to the many assassins, Chu Qian used his blade. This time, watching Chu Qian unsheathe his sword, Mu Yunlan knew he was serious.

“Damn woman, don’t you see what time it is!” Mei Guyan didn’t care to listen to her sour words. With a curse, he kicked open the wooden door. Before Leng Wanyu could react, he had already taken a swift step to her bedside and, with a big hand, abruptly pulled her up from the bed.

Shortly after Nan Shenggong swallowed the Resurrection Pill, a golden light suddenly burst from his body, harmonizing brilliantly with the faint golden glow from the Ghostly Ring.

At this moment, Bai Ruoxi felt somewhat embarrassed and awkward, unsure of what to say. She approached Ye Feijue and watched him take out some hamburgers and milk from his bag, feeling utterly speechless.

This matter was probably only known to Mu Yunlan and those close to him. Even Nangong Yujue remained unaware that Chu Qian’s actions were entirely for Mu Yunlan’s sake.

The barrier on the black-and-white stone could not wait for her to reinforce it; it shattered into dust, scattering beneath her feet.

She pressed herself against the bathroom door, listening intently for any sounds, hoping to discover something.

They knew nothing about the secret of the purple ring, nor how to uncover it.

Although Fang Yiming was also returning here for the first time, he was no stranger to places like this. He certainly wouldn’t gamble with Chen Yunlong’s money, fearing he would owe a tremendous debt.

These two trends had become the main theme in Nancheng for the past month, stirring up a “Zhou Wei” craze.

Because Chen Bo was stationed in Lingcheng, most affairs in the Tiger Hall fell onto his shoulders.

“But what about you? Why didn’t you run?” Zhang Zhening was now trembling with fear, never having imagined Fang Yiming’s matter would have such widespread impact.
