Volume 1, Chapter 68: The Complete Severing of Sibling Bonds

Shen Chi almost fainted from the massive blow.
His vision went black in waves.
Suddenly, he raised his hand and struck himself across the face.
Wu Xingxue winced; that blow was certainly not light.
Because Shen Chi's cheek quickly swelled and turned red.
It hurt, which meant it wasn't an illusion.
He wasn't dreaming.
That person just now really was his dear cousin.
Tiansheng saw the Red Boy sticking out his tongue and licking his two bright red lips with a look of insatiable longing. He couldn't help being utterly shocked. Could it be that the flesh and blood of those two people and two snakes had been completely devoured by the Red Boy?
Due to my previous super-high damage output, I was now relatively calm about Youliang's four-digit damage.
As Lü Xiang'er walked into the room, Lü Ernang also came out, preparing to go to the kitchen to boil water. Knowing that he couldn't persuade Lü Ernang, Lü Hong followed her to the kitchen and helped her pull the box bellows. When Lü Ernang said it was enough, Lü Hong stood up and waited with her for the water in the pot to boil.
The sound of the horns gradually faded into silence. Yet, echoing in response, gongs and drums suddenly beat outside the south city gate, their sounds rolling like thunder and deeply shaking the firmament. Following the booming drums, a low horn sounded once more, and the pounding of iron hooves made the earth tremble, causing even the teacup in front of Chuxiu to rattle loudly.
Mindful of her duty to report Shen Yu's injuries to the Emperor Tiansheng, Chuxiu took her leave: "I will go over right now." With those words, she bowed slightly and hurried away from the old madam's room.
"Wow! You knew that even before? I was planning to keep it to sell for money, but it seems there's no hope now." I put on a helpless expression.
Putting aside the affection between mother and son, looking past the ties of masters and servants, and treating fame, fortune, and wealth with indifference... I had once thought that the lake of my heart was already free of ripples, and that in this lifetime I could smile at life and death, unmoved by favor or disgrace.
"Vice Mayor Qin, before you came back, Elder Huo and we were just talking about you. If you're not in too much of a rush, come over and sit with us for a chat." Long Jian finally couldn't watch any longer.
Right now, the vast, primitive open space was already a sea of people. As the setting sun cast its rays upon the players' armor, the light shimmered with brilliant, gorgeous colors.
"Fool!" Moxu spoke again, and Biluo also let out a cold snort. What did he mean by this? Did he intend to tear off the masks and fall out ahead of time?
"I am your elder sister!" Mo Yueli answered softly, afraid that if her voice was too loud, it would frighten her younger sister.
Although Chenhua and Jingda lowered their admission scores by 60 points, Li Yiru was still too far out of their reach, making Fudan the most attainable top university for him.
When Su Mochen returned to the room after washing up, Yang Liangxi had already fallen asleep clutching the blanket. Looking at that quiet sleeping face, Su Mochen curved the corners of his lips, turned the air conditioner down a few degrees, and then got into bed to hold her as he drifted into a deep sleep.
Su Mochen reached out to rub his brow. Having had no time to deal with her for several days, he said helplessly, "You busy yourself first, don't get too tired." He would collect the debt later.
Li Xiuyuan was slightly startled. Naturally, he didn't know who Jiang Huaiya was talking about, but a sense of worry arose in his heart. When he came to his senses, the two of them had already left.
If one were to suddenly stop imparting knowledge in the Dao of alchemy, the goodwill accumulated over this period would likely be greatly diminished, or even slowly eroded. Such is human nature; helping someone with a drop of water only to face their resentment when failing to give a bushel of rice is all too common.
"He's a top student with exceptional grades, but not to the point of being a bookworm. His reputation for diligence is well-established among all the teachers. Ma Jian is destined to be a student of a prestigious university and is sure to have a good job in the future."
"How smart! Stay obediently in bed, and you are not allowed to get down by yourself, understand?" Mo Yunian really found it hard to trust Li Nianwei right now, so he couldn't help but instruct her.
However, nowadays his fame had risen, and today happened to be the day of peak exposure. Without hiring bodyguards, he reckoned he wouldn't be able to break away at all.
