Chapter 125: Women Are Naturally Gentle, But Mothers Are Strong

Chen Yang couldn’t be bothered to glance at him. “I’m here to celebrate my grandfather’s birthday, not to sneak around. What’s there to be afraid of?”

“Hmph, you’re pretending not to understand, but you know very well that Duan Ping is done for. Do you think the Duan family will just let it go?”

Chen Guanglei snapped irritably, “To be honest with you, my dad and my uncle...”

Ranking fourth was the Central Palace of Ultimate Bliss, located in central Shenzhou. Ultimate Bliss Palace was originally founded by a pair of Taoist partners devoted to exorcising demons and subduing evil spirits. Though the sect had a history of only fifteen hundred years, among the dozen or so ascended disciples, Ultimate Bliss Palace accounted for two.

Lei Guan’s heart skipped a beat. They had just blocked five teleportation arrays here, yet another passageway had appeared. Didn’t that mean their efforts had been all for nothing?

There were clearly many excellent sword techniques he could learn, yet Wang Zheng simply didn’t have the time or experience to pursue them.

Why had he suddenly developed an aversion to smoking? Guo Lang shook his head with a smile. He had managed to quit smoking after just one stroll around, something neither gum nor betel nut had accomplished. It was truly strange.

The men nearby pricked up their ears. Lin Yike and Lin Qinghai exchanged intense glances, both silently contemplating the future of their alchemy.

In fact, he could have released a single flame without charging, but fearing it wouldn’t be powerful enough, he chose to build up his energy a little longer.

Liu Xin didn’t want to reveal his occupation to Lin Yunyi, as his line of work was rife with fraudsters. He worried about what she might think.

Regarding this matter, Kid was initially stunned. After hesitating for a moment, he carefully recounted the whole story.

It seemed that this box was also “choosing dishes by looking at the menu.” At the time, the spiritual energy contained was limited, so the counterattack wasn’t very strong; this time, however, he unleashed almost his full power, and the ancient force’s corruption was far more intense than before.

As he drew within just a meter or two of the newcomer, sunlight filtering through the door crack finally illuminated the face before him—a black-haired, delicate-looking youth who seemed vaguely familiar.

Restless and irritable, Fan Xiao reached to snatch the banner and tear it apart, stomping on it furiously, but Qu Zichong stopped him. Qu intended to hang the banner in his office, right opposite his desk. He wanted it to serve as a constant reminder of past mistakes and a warning for the future.

According to Yan Long’s memory, mercenary missions were also ranked by difficulty from S to G, totaling eight levels.

Ai Qin’s face flushed with anger, momentarily at a loss. She had never encountered anyone like this or such an investigative method. The current situation far exceeded all her imagination.

After reaching the second floor, I escorted Ling Ziyao back to her room. Once she closed the door, I turned toward my own room. After only a couple of steps, a sudden gust of wind blew straight at me, sending a chill down my spine.

“I’m on the first floor!” The elder was the first to speak. Xu Qingmo couldn’t have jumped directly from such a high floor—there was only one possibility: he broke through a window, then smashed through a window on the floor below and jumped inside.

Han Yanyue told Mo Meiling to leave first. After Mo Meiling departed, she asked why I had come to Qianfeng Snow Mountain. I said it was to find the Ice Silkworm. Han Yanyue then asked why I was looking for the Ice Silkworm.

There had been a time when she knew someone was inquiring about Jiawei’s affairs, but she got busy and forgot to investigate. After finishing her work, she finally remembered and sent someone to check, only to discover it was Feng Huali, the legitimate second son of Prince Duan, who was searching for her.

As soon as He Dongfeng released her face, she clung to him like a stubborn piece of sticky plaster. He pushed Yuanbao aside and took to the stage when no one else challenged him.
