Volume One, Chapter 143: Investigation into Origins Thwarted

"What was the cause of Dean Liang's death!" Feng Yizhou stood nearby with a solemn expression, speaking slowly.

His gaze was fixed intently on the new dean, attempting to catch any possible clues from her expression.

"A month ago, Dean Liang went out for supplies and got into a car accident on his way back!"

When Yuan Xiao returned home, Ying Yin was watching television. Yuan Xiao gave a listless greeting and went straight to her room.

"Your Ladyship, what on earth does the Seventh Imperial Prince mean by this?" Nanny Gong asked, unable to figure it out.

Everyone sat in gloomy silence, save for Wang Ling's phone, which kept ringing incessantly as she seemed to be conferring with Qin Xinhao about something.

The man flashing before her eyes was tall and handsome, with deep facial features, cold eyes, and a ruthless arrogance that seemed to look down upon everything in the world.

Such a matter-of-fact answer dispelled Li Rongbao's vigilance. It seemed he had been worrying needlessly; well, that was for the best, for the best.

Between them, any form of intimacy was inappropriate. Most importantly, she was in no mood to play along today.

Too many of my classmates' parents divorced and remarried, but I had never seen a more devoted adult couple than them. Actually, I suppose I am an adult myself now.

"I didn't help with anything at all, what are you thanking me for?" Qiu Lingyang asked, her face flushed red as she was held tightly in Shang Xufeng's embrace.

Heh, what is love in this world, that it makes people pledge their lives to one another? Fortunately, in the end, everything returned to dust and earth, vanishing into absolute nothingness.

Uzuki Eiko dismissed a thought in her heart. There were no ninjutsu techniques in the ninja world that could restore someone's youth; such things were utterly impossible.

Kawaki walked toward the guard booth, punched in the password previously given by Whitcas, and swiped the ID card he had backed up earlier.

Leaving Lanjing Pavilion, the group headed toward their final destination: Guangyuan Tower, which operated the largest business among the three major families. It was said that Guangyuan Tower not only owned several branches within the Soul Prison Continent, but had branches spread across the entire continent as well, showcasing just how profound its foundation truly was.

She was also willing to try hard and fight for Major Wesley. All of this was simply because she had realized what a heavy and steadfast love she had received, and thus, she wanted to give something in return.

Jiang Wei closed his eyes, observing the two spheres of light within the sea of his heart, and then opened them to cup his hands in salute to the Azure Dragon Sacred Sovereign.

After they finished making their selections, Mo Qiang saw them out. It was already noon, and everyone was preparing to go shopping. Mo Qiang did not tag along, as he needed to earn enough credit points to facilitate everyone's entry and exit into the Non-Dimensional Space.

"Major, there is a question that has been bothering me for a long time," Lu Bai asked with a smile. He had already downed three drinks with Wesley. This amount of alcohol was nothing to Wesley, but it posed a slight challenge for Lu Bai.

Someone uttered a remark, and the gazes of everyone present instantly turned toward the sky. The entire heaven and earth seemed to fall silent at that very moment.

Yuhuang did not directly answer Xueji's question, but instead asked calmly, which somewhat surprised Xueji.

Li Yun lay in the hospital bed, awaiting Hyuga Rou's arrival. Uzuki Yugao had told him that Hyuga Rou would come to see him after graduation, so rather than blocking Hyuga Rou at the venue entrance, it was better to wait for her arrival at the hospital.

The Ziji Chamber of Commerce was already handling the division of the obsidian. If this single transaction went through successfully...

Jiang Hao bought a property in Jinyu International because the land prices were cheap there. Wu Xing bought one because it allowed him to be neighbors with Jiang Hao. Yet the place had always been pristine, and now, the sudden appearance of an uninvited guest meant someone must have tampered with things behind the scenes.

To her astonishment, the skin on the back of her hand where she had just applied the lotion began to change at a rate visible to the naked eye.
