Wounds

Seeing this, Nan Tangxi covered her mouth to stifle a laugh. Her second brother was insufferably arrogant—it seemed only Brother Xiuzhe could keep him in check.

Xuanxuan stepped forward, running her hands over the animals who had transformed into humans, occasionally pinching them out of curiosity. It was her first time witnessing such a marvel.

“Fellow Mo, since you’re here, why hurry to leave? Sit with us and chat for a while. When the others arrive, it will be a good chance to get acquainted,” Cao Ang said warmly.

Now that I’m in this position, with the Elven Forest in peril, I vow to rid it of these evil spirits.

Huddled in the corner, Wan Feng couldn’t help but curse at these words, “Today truly broadens my horizons!” Yin Yue pursed her lips and muttered, “Shameless!” Yet neither dared step forward to expose Luo Miaoshu’s lies, growing increasingly anxious within.

“Many people in the organization know about your situation; you’re often discussed in private,” Zhao Xuemei remarked.

Xia Feng quickly realized that this level-up brought him many benefits.

Mr. Luo nodded without further comment, bowed slightly, and entered the main house with the wooden box in his arms, the maid following behind.

Jingzhi looked at Luo Pingyan with furrowed brows, puzzled. She didn’t press further, but her worry was written clearly in her eyes.

The Grand Preceptor paid no heed, snorted coldly, and extended a palm toward the kneeling team member.

A hundred yuan per duck egg—one thousand would be a hundred thousand, ten thousand would be a million. Spending this sum to have the provincial leader visit a few times is well worth it. From now on, whatever Feng Xiaoxiao wants to do, each department will clear the way—no one would dare obstruct her.

With no other option, having handed the criminal over to the police, it was best to trust in their ability and professionalism.

After finishing their meal, Zhang Donghai and the drivers waited in their cars. Zhang didn’t join them; instead, he went to sit at his parents’ table.

Yet he remained gloomy, racking his brains trying to snatch the Black Tortoise back from Fuxi.

A loud clang rang out—the two swords collided, sparks exploding like fire. His opponent felt a surge of electric force shoot up his arm, and in a sudden numbness, his sword flew from his grasp.

“I do, I do! Boss, if I work for you, can I see you every day?” Jin Xier asked eagerly.

Watching their departing figures, Ye Qian inexplicably sighed, a hint of confusion, helplessness, and sorrow flickering in his eyes.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could request a few more treasures from Her Majesty; once matters in the mortal world were concluded, he would have greater leverage to govern the heavens. Thus, he was determined to persuade Her Majesty to stay in the Celestial Court.

When Mu Zhi married into the Jiang family, she naturally brought Granny Zhou along. Barely half a year later, word came that she was expecting a child. Ye Luying smiled upon hearing the news and wrote to Lady Wang about it.

Tang Feng’s expression remained unchanged. Lin Jueying glanced at him in surprise—he seemed unafraid of poison. She knew what Liu Changfeng had used: a deadly toxin called “Ghost Orchid.” It had a beautiful name but was lethal as mist.

Chen Xi was left speechless. Song Zhiying’s words rang true, yet she could not disobey Rong Ye’s orders, leaving her in a bind.

“Your Highness, Princess Ming and the Shark Emperor?” Li Yang stared in disbelief at the scene before him.

A wave of nausea struck Song Zhiying; she retched a few times. Smiling, General Manager Liu kindly pointed her to the restroom.

Earlier, while she was being dragged around town and searched, she thought she had passed the City Lord’s Mansion. Following her memories, she finally found it.

Worse yet, during the Celestial Army’s battles, they often failed to cooperate at the front, hindering the soldiers’ retreat. Such actions amounted to treason.

Min Tianxue watched the rainbow phoenix darting through the sky, her joy vanishing in an instant.

Thus, the opening scene of “Seeking Treasures” is the male lead sitting on the edge of a tall building’s rooftop, preparing to end his life.

Just as Feng Xinuo finished speaking, a cyclone rose in the distance, spiraling toward them.

So you mean, not only have I failed to make my second brother feel at home, but I've also become a burden to him?

Having spent little time with Ancestor Wu Qi, A Yan didn’t know her well; her feelings toward this founder were more reverent than fearful. As for Yao Hua, her feelings were quite the opposite.

Feng Yuanyuan and Xie Anjun were nearby picking mushrooms. When Yue Qiongji stood on tiptoe, she instinctively covered Xie Anjun’s eyes.

An ominous premonition rose in Tang Qingyi’s heart—the Empress Dowager’s sudden visit could not bode well.

Yet the blood-soaked figure trapped in the ice was oblivious to her presence, believing only that the domain’s power pressed relentlessly upon him.

“Thank you for acknowledging my ability. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave,” Yue Qiongji said, unwilling to waste words on people who didn’t matter.

As long as Tang Mengyun’s Tang Corporation stopped exerting secret pressure, the Mu Group would not remain so dormant.

But after leaving the city for only a few days, before catching up with Liu Gao and Chu Fei, they were intercepted by a mysterious force and completely wiped out.

Ugh! As soon as Du Sensen returned to the villa, he rushed to the restroom to vomit. Even in his drunken state, his judgment remained clear.

He was met with a wooden sign adorned with fresh flowers—Yue Qiongji’s favorite sweet olive blossoms.

But Li Xiaoran, a master of at least level four hundred, obeyed his every command—how could he not be feared?

“Yes, if not for my generous benefits, they probably would have left long ago,” Jiang Ye replied wearily.

In New York, USA, a manhole cover lifted and a head of wild, tangled hair appeared below, squinting in astonishment at the blue sky overhead.

From the Spurs’ bench, Blair watched Yuan Su from afar, puzzled by his strange actions.

He hoped for a good spot in the lineup, allowing Yoo Jae-suk to savor the privileges of capital.

Between two seats, Lin Yoon-a leaned forward, one hand resting on the driver’s seat, the other pushing Kim Taeyeon’s forehead.

“No, no, no!” At these words, Tie Feng understood what she meant. He wanted to reply, but could only scream internally.

The street was dark, but with the waning moon above, one could still make things out. But once inside the building, it was pitch black—so dark you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face.

The plants upgraded by the Life Modifier demanded little from their environment; most places sufficed for growth. Yet, as rubber trees and similar plants yielded abundantly, a steady water supply was crucial. Only with ample water could their output reach its peak.
