Chapter 41: Do They Even Know How to Wipe?
Su Nianwei watched Yun Fu, who was surrounded by females, with cold, deep eyes. She dug her fingernails into her palms and glanced toward Qing Ze.
Qing Ze understood her intention immediately and retreated silently from the crowd.
Since Yun Fu had bullied Su Nianwei so harshly a few days ago, they only intended to give her a scare. Moreover, driven by certain inner desires, Qing Ze had become increasingly obsessed ever since Yun Fu began treating him coldly and threw him out of the villa after he failed to extort the fish-scale fan from her.
She had a terrible temper upon waking. The moment she opened her eyes, she lashed out in annoyance, kicking Pei Si.
Chu Yu was bent over, panting heavily from exhaustion. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes; there was no one around, as everyone else had gone to the main hall. He wanted the others to know that any attempt to ambush him would be futile, as the treasure in his hand could alter the laws of time. He was at the early stage of the second rank, and his opponent was at most at the mid-stage. With his strength, he had nothing to fear. As for the other one, merely at the early second rank, he believed they wouldn't last long against Jiang Xuan and Li Nuo.
"That wasn't set in stone. I only said it to provoke you, but who knew you wouldn't react," Shen Jing said.
Clearly hearing the anger in the man's voice, Jian Anran shuddered involuntarily, then timidly inched closer to him.
Seeing the children gathered together, Ye Mingyan was just curiously walking toward them when he saw a tall boy come charging out like a wild bull.
The problem was that for Tom and the Watchers, this was not necessarily a good thing. Do not forget how Tom, one of the two leaders of the mutants, and the Watchers, one of the two major mutant organizations, earned their reputations—they built them by trampling over Professor X and the X-Men.
Before she could finish, Nan Shu cast a glance from the mirror, and Sun Mo immediately shut her mouth.
To demonstrate a frugal lifestyle as an official, Magistrate Cao ordered his eight-bearer sedan chair to be put away. He paid out of his own pocket to buy a green ox, which he often rode through the streets, instantly establishing a down-to-earth, man-of-the-people image.
She couldn't help but feel that since entering this private room, Huo Feng had been radiating a chill capable of freezing anyone to death without consequence.
Seeing that Jiang Chu had no reaction, Chen Mu hardened his heart and placed his hand on Yin Luo's shoulder. Although it was just a light touch with little force, in Jiang Chu's eyes, this act was a public slap in the face.
Ling Feng nodded, not particularly surprised. After all, he had recognized Flender the moment he saw him, knowing he was a Soul Saint and the second headmaster of Shrek Academy.
The intelligence report did not mention soul skills, likely because the opponent had intentionally hidden them. It was understandable; if one revealed their soul skills to an opponent, both sides would know each other's weaknesses. A stronger party could then formulate corresponding countermeasures, whereas hiding them allowed for a more effective, surprise strike.
Had he just told his family he found a job, only to have to tell them he was unemployed again? Qiu Ye Ling's mind was in turmoil. As a long-suffering, peace-loving corporate slave, he might have no dreams, but he could not ignore his family's expectations or his responsibility as the pillar of his household.
Ling Feng was speechless, his face darkening. He had prepared a long list of opening lines, but it seemed he wouldn't be able to deliver them.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I just saw an assassin rush into the sea of fire," the guard replied respectfully.
Her sisters-in-law had likely pushed her onto the bridal sedan chair directly, without offering a single word of advice, right?
Thus, in order to protect her country and its army, the original host proactively struck a deal with the system.
The seven remnants of the Heavenly Gate following him bared their teeth in sinister grins, pouncing toward their respective opponents like tigers descending from a mountain. As they charged, they drew narrow blades from their robes.
The spider let out a panicked screech. Realizing it could not defeat the flying sword, the rest of the swarm retreated like a receding tide.
