Chapter 145: The Way a Mother-in-Law Looks at Her Son-in-Law

Richard crashed into the ground like a meteorite, carving out a deep crater upon impact. Di Shitian fared no better, with blood gushing from his wounds and spraying across the earth like a rain of gore.

As for the original mayor of Sky Lake Town, it remained a mystery why he had actually gone through with it, yet it was precisely this act that allowed the Master of the Sky Lake Sect to kill him and usurp his identity.

Having already taken the time to purchase a monthly tram pass, he no longer needed to wait in line for tickets, which saved him quite a bit of trouble.

Although Xia You had already known that Kasumigaoka Utaha had finished her new manuscript and submitted it to Machida Sonoko, the realization remained.

Xuanyuan was also deeply troubled. Having followed his master for countless years and witnessed his master’s boundless power, he could tell from his master’s attitude that he, too, intended to submit.

The next day, the villagers set aside their farm work. At the first light of dawn, they went to the ponds to harvest fish and prawns, and headed to the riverbank to gather large abalones, everyone busy and bustling.

Though Liu Jianing already enjoyed significant popularity and recognition on the Douyu streaming platform and was considered a well-known figure in the domestic esports scene, his fame was still quite fresh. It would be difficult to make everyone truly aware of him.

This was because his mansion had been occupied, and the person who had taken it was, unfortunately, someone he could not afford to offend.

The sound was nearly identical to a pheasant’s call. The breathing ahead became shallow once more, and Zuo Lengchan seized the opportunity to creep forward silently. Under the cover of this sound, the six men ahead did not notice his approach in the slightest.

His lips were stained with dried blood, and his face was deathly pale. In just two days, he seemed to have aged significantly. While the loss of his vitality brought him pain, it also left his heart feeling strangely unburdened.

Moreover, while ordinary cultivators might only spend spirit coins on necessary food, pills could often serve as food directly. At the very least, they provided a much simpler way to replenish spiritual energy—direct, crude, and easy to absorb—so how could they not be favored?

Although Tian Mo felt like an "unrelated bystander" this time—well, he felt as if he had been isolated, haha.

After all, he, an Ancient God, stood at the pinnacle of the Heaven-Veiling Realm; dealing with someone like Gu Mou, who had only just entered the realm, was as easy as reaching out for something.

Almost the moment Lan Wufeng lunged, Tado was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting anyone to launch a surprise attack on him.

"But, but they are sharing the same room, after all." Luo Tianyi did not believe Li Changlin possessed that much self-control.

Wei Jie sat silently on his horse, letting his mount follow slowly behind Yuan Zhan’s. The two traveled along the main road one after the other, unhurried and steady.

Although the Luomen government operated as an independent executive body, it was nominally subordinate to the high-and-mighty Emperor of the royal family. They could not publicly declare themselves a "democratic" government, nor did they dare to announce that the people of Luomen were "free."

These were not mecha parts, nor were they intergalactic communication devices; he had overseen those personally, and not a single piece had gone missing.

Was this the reason? If so, it seemed to make sense; Xijiang did seem a bit overly deferential.

The panicked fatty tripped and fell face-first in a standard, clumsy sprawl. Even his pants came loose.

Anan was a very devout Christian; she believed in God and in karma. She was usually incredibly kind to me. Whenever I resisted, she would always say, "I must have owed you in a past life, so I am here to repay that debt in this one. By being this good to you, I can clear the debt I owed from before."

But when I noticed the change in her eyes, I began to regret it, swallowing in terror.

"What's wrong with me?" I looked at Chen Yiye in confusion and gently wiped the tears from her face.

Harry suddenly felt that if he were holding anything in his hand, it would have crashed to the floor, much like his inner thoughts—even though he had been prepared, he was shocked upon hearing the task and the "price" offered by the Department of Mysteries.

"Fanlang, will you listen to me? Jim was in a car accident and is still in a coma." Things were not as Meng Fanlang had suggested. Seeing his misunderstanding, He Niannian explained anxiously.

Duan Siqi seemed to have been prepared; the spirit talismans in his hands burned continuously, wrapping his body in a thin mist, making him completely unfazed by the cold wind.

Xuanyan looked at the crowd around him, who were on the verge of laughing until they cried, and at the dark expression on Uncle Quan’s face and Yangyang’s unhappiness. Xuanyan did not know what he had done wrong.

Shi Hua nodded so violently that Fang Bai feared his neck might snap.

Reason calmed him down, but his face still slowly flushed red, as if he were truly incredibly shy.

"Ignorant and unskilled! Truly arguing with fallacies and glib of tongue! Do you know how the Master handles students like this?"

Dozens of six-winged, unicorned beasts flapped their wings as they rushed through the spatial rift, finally hovering behind Commander Yanchen.

At this critical moment, the madman actually laughed, as casually as if the danger were not happening to him at all.

A few seconds later, the bickering between the two vanished, replaced by a series of soft gasps. For a time, the bedroom was filled with the scent of spring.

Qi Xuan was just about to check on Fu Enyan’s condition when he caught the moment the other man opened his eyes.

Xia Mu immediately activated the protective spirit formation, sealing the stone chamber’s door shut before sitting cross-legged on the stone bed.

What was going on! At first, Xiao Yan had only noticed a few corpses and, being in the wilderness, had not paid much mind. But as he ventured deeper, the bodies became more numerous, which was chilling! In some places, they were piled in heaps.
