Volume 1, Chapter 45: Incontinent After All

Holding his teacup, Jiang Jinshu cast a cold glance at Shen Nanxing, a sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.

"What are you panicking about? Think of how smug you looked last night; you shouldn't be panicking now."

Having been left lying on the cold floor all night, Shen Nanxing felt dizzy and lightheaded, yet the faint, persistent pain in his lower abdomen brought a sudden wave of sharp clarity.

"If I can confirm you are unharmed, naturally I won't ask any more questions." Xiyang placed his hand upon his wrist.

"What is that sound? Xinqing! Xinqing!" Fairy Shaoling's panicked cries echoed from above. Their previous conversation had been conducted entirely through divine sense, but the roar of the underworld beast had finally alarmed her.

That palm strike of hers had certainly carried no small amount of force. Although she had already sustained injuries during her fierce battle with Meng Shiyue, she was confident that her cultivation level was more than enough to handle him. Yet why had that palm strike felt so bizarre?

Such a formidable Onmyoji had been converted by Master Huitong in the blink of an eye? Seeing how he hung on Master Huitong's every word with absolute obedience, didn't that mean he would do whatever Master Huitong commanded?

Shuitian Lan looked startled for a moment and said, "Elder, you have a discerning eye. Can you really tell just from this?" She was left somewhat amused and exasperated, wondering why neither Danliang nor Lu Yue had noticed it.

Yet if someone were to listen closely at that moment, they would hear a faint noise emanating from beneath the stone platform of the devil's niche, resembling the sound of insects and ants gnawing away.

"This fellow's ability is very much like the attraction and repulsion of magnets; it's extremely difficult to land an attack on his body," Jiedou thought to himself.

Meanwhile, Liaoyin and Liaochen had joined forces to counter Yun Feiyang's elusive Nine-Dragon Whip. Assailing him from both front and rear, the three of them were locked in an intense and inextricable battle, while Liaoming swung his sword to beat back Guo Sheng.

Seeing the bashful yet unmistakable joy lingering on He Mengjiao's face, Jiang Chengfeng knew in his heart that she had tacitly consented. Feeling immensely proud, he toasted his sect members with several bowls of wine, offered a few words of comfort to He Mengjiao, and then instructed her to retire early for the night.

On second thought, I realized that although things had been a bit tough in the past, my luck later on was actually quite good. At first, I thought Heaven was deliberately making things difficult for me, but upon careful reflection, it was simply because my luck at the time had genuinely been poor.

Due to his massive size, and with the largest sinkholes in the swamp measuring only about a meter across, even if he stepped directly into the mire, he would simply breeze through as if he were galloping over flat ground.

Following the spatial upgrade, the probability of medicinal herbs mutating had increased significantly. Within a short while, she discovered two mutated herbs. If the seeds from these mutated herbs were scattered once more, the chances of growing mutated plants would at least double.

"Liu Sanqian" remained silent. She lowered her head and offered no reply, trembling slightly under the man's interrogation, which in turn caused the silver threads to vibrate along with her.

How could things have turned out this way? She had originally thought that even if this matter implicated her, it also touched upon the image of the Yue Group. Even if Yue Linghai cared nothing for her, he would still take action to handle the situation and clear things up for the sake of the corporation's reputation. She believed it was merely a matter of time before she could return to school and walk outside without being pointed at.

A hand, chillingly cold, suddenly bound over his eyes. He shivered slightly, struggling with all his might to force a sound from his throat, growing so frantic that he began hopping in place.

"Junior Brother, are you alright? Shall the sparring continue?" Wu You could not help asking.

Yet the effect was instantaneous. Today was the day Instructor Annal returned from her business trip, as well as the one-week countdown to the exhibition, and Ji Yuyou had finally completed all her work.

"Don't leave! You big villain, this young master will fight you to the death!" Snapping out of his dazed state, the young commander held nothing back and directly unleashed his ultimate move. Amidst his furious roar, the two Desert Eagle pistols in his hands miraculously merged into one, transforming into a massive cannon.

"A wonderful thing! Acknowledging one's ancestors and returning to the clan is a wonderful thing!" As the pastries were served, the Medicine Sage grew too busy to speak with his disciple, grabbing a pastry in each hand and attacking them from both sides simultaneously.
