Chapter 37

Now, seeing Tang Xueqing lean in so close to speak to him, his dark face flushed. Fortunately, his complexion was so dark that even with the blush, under the soft lighting Tang Xueqing wouldn’t notice.

Looking at the romantic setting—though they had already been intimate several times that afternoon—the sight of red roses, red candles, fine wine, handsome men, and blooms stirred in her a renewed desire to be with him.

“He still has two lightning tribulations ahead; you’re just a soul body—you simply can’t bear it. What will you do?” Ming said anxiously.

Because he hadn’t rested well the previous night, Gao Yuan kept dozing off in class, barely hearing anything during two lessons.

They went to the maple forest. Luo Qimo had never seen such a stunning maple forest—like a paradise on earth.

[Nearby] I am Not a Husky: Sasha has been hungry all day, hoping some kind soul would spare some horse grass so Sasha could fill her belly, even if it meant going around the city once.

But she was already timid before the battle, losing courage; if she could exert fifty percent of her strength with full effort, that would be considered good.

That Zhang Fei, impatient and early, arrived before Zhao Xu and others, roaring, “Where did this thief come from, daring to violate my county?” His voice thundered like a giant storm, his momentum like a charging horse. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei secretly shuddered, thinking this man must be a master.

Luo Qimo felt as if trapped inside a giant sphere, a sealed space with no way out, and no one could enter.

“Oh, oh, the twenty-four filial piety boyfriend actually dares to argue with you; surely you’ve drained him dry!” Zong Luoyu collapsed on the bed, laughing heartily.

“No need, there’s no time left.” Xu Hai didn’t open his eyes, speaking calmly.

The next morning, news about the Floating Spirit Sect had spread throughout the town. After all, Fengxi Town wasn’t far from Feng County, and many had witnessed the county magistrate being struck by lightning.

Even though the scene was chaotic, Meiza heard familiar shouts. Turning her head, she saw Lin Lan, Shaohan, and Yifei.

Chu Ning was not idle and charged in as well—not to kill, but to find medicinal pills.

Although Shen Sicheng didn’t understand the cause of Ruan Li’s disappointment and loneliness, he sensed the change in her emotions. Just as he was about to approach, a voice stopped him.

“Greetings, Prince.” Clad in black with a long blade, surrounded by a deadly aura, stood a veteran soldier.

A ten-thousand-yuan stone mine was enough to stir ambitions among many factions, so the Fire Clan had to defend it, allowing no intrusions.

After going upstairs, he realized the room was decorated in a classical style, reminiscent of a film from the Republican era. Shen Duo’s room was spacious with a king-size bed. He recalled the bed in Shen Duo’s bar and sighed at how wasteful this kid was.

Well... she had done her homework, knowing that a certain young master was currently staying in a five-star hotel, nationally renowned, and had been living there for months.

Hua Fenglian paused, puzzled as she took a bite of perch, suddenly recalling the cotton tree flower embroidered on the bellyband she wore last night. Realizing this, her cheeks flushed as if burning, and she cursed that lecherous man a hundred times in her heart. “Nanny Zhu, please take the vase away; I don’t want to see it.”

The appearance of Shen Yuchen truly surprised the Ruan family. After all, they still vividly remembered Qin Hongjuan from the past. Moreover, the Qin family’s decline after being implicated by King Jingrong had left a chilling impression.

My curiosity stirred, I wanted to ask what he did with Musa, but I bit my lip, deciding not to inquire further to avoid stirring up more trouble.

Though this is what they said, human nature is flesh and blood—who would despise more money? Besides, if the second branch really had no interest in power, why would they always pick fights indirectly, making people uneasy?

“Yinzhen, Yinzhen…” Yu Xi kept calling her husband’s name, as if finally seeing a ray of hope in the abyss of pain caused by being lost, completely melting her sorrow and suffering beneath him.

Someone behind the Crown Princess couldn’t help but cry but quickly covered their mouth. The Crown Princess was clearly displeased. Lan Qi pretended not to hear and, after giving her instructions, did not linger. The Crown Princess personally escorted her out of Yu Qing Palace.

Feng Ruhuang never expected Nangong Ming to come at this moment, awkwardly coughing several times.

This scholar’s official rank was now firmly in hand. Su Mu was so delighted he wanted to laugh aloud. Completely relaxed, with the temperature lowered, he slept soundly.

However, he knew his eldest brother’s confidence was not unfounded. His connections in the capital were numerous—friends made through the prestige of the Zhu family’s patriarch.

Inside the door was the place I first saw when I entered the Underworld. It really had been a long time since I last returned. Ivan strode in boldly.

“By the way, do your elders disapprove of you dating during your studies?” Lan Yu asked again.

“Shall we have some meat today?” Ding Zhen pointed at Lan Yu’s bulging pocket, filled with a large stash left over from the day, with a sly look on his face.

The smoker simultaneously pulled out a rifle, firing at Gong Huan from a crouching position. Due to the terrain, he had the advantage with cover, while the opponent had none.

The brief battle between humans and gods ended with this explosion. However, throughout history, those who have defeated gods were only humans chosen by the gods themselves.

The meal was ample and stimulated my appetite greatly. I took the plate without hesitation and began eating, wishing I could finish all the food at once.

Though I nearly became her husband, we were not legally wed. She helped her brother, and I had nothing to say about it.

After Ye Zhen took the stage, he turned to the audience and waved. Screams and applause erupted. Among the crowd, signs bearing Ye Zhen’s name outnumbered even those supporting the Xkzd team.
