Volume 1, Chapter 57: What on Earth Is His Lordship Trying to Do?

Although Xie Mingzheng issued a gag order, strictly forbidding anyone in the Xie household from mentioning Xie Qi'qi eloping with someone, the matter was still spreading like wildfire by the next day.

When Yue Yue heard Qiuju report that the news was spreading outside, she immediately knew it was Dou Yong's doing.

"What? You won't agree to this either? Do you hate me and just want to avoid spending time with me?" Lanlier suddenly stood up and demanded accusingly.

Qin Juan sent Lanxin off with a face full of gratitude. As soon as she stepped back inside, she noticed her good friend staring at the doorway with a very strange look in her eyes.

Minos, who was always as calm as an iceberg, was actually shouting and screaming during the battle. This greatly shocked both Kana and Hagen, who were familiar with him, leaving them clueless as to what had happened to him.

The gamblers went wild because they were going to make a fortune this time around. Disregarding the strain on their vocal cords, they screamed at the top of their lungs, gambling with their lives.

I said it was no big deal, let them have their fun. I just waited, and before long, a guy burst in while Director Chen tried to pull him back looking thoroughly vexed.

I stopped watching and went to freshen up. Phoenix hadn't hooked up with me in a long time and was acting all horny again early in the morning, but I was not in the mood for that nonsense; I had real business to attend to.

"Really?" Tang Ningning asked with a hint of inferiority, feeling at that moment like she was just a joke in everyone else's eyes.

"Boss, hand me the quicksilver iron. You should know I had my eyes on it first," Li Yu said indifferently.

These people were not particularly powerful, but they were dressed remarkably well. The fabric of their garments looked flawlessly smooth, reflecting a noble sheen even under the sunlight. Compared to theirs, the clothes worn by Li Yu and his companions looked no different from the rags of beggars.

While her father was busy working overtime around the clock on massive construction projects, Xu Yishan was not idle either. Her primary achievement was solving the energy supply problem for the entire Binhai City.

At that moment, Ji Niaoniao was wrapped tightly by the giant python, with only her head exposed. The serpent's head flicked its forked tongue right beside her ear, as if preparing to open its jaws and swallow her whole. Her face was flushed red from holding her breath, and she finally managed to squeeze out a bit of space with her arm to speak.

Li Xing and Nan Tianxing fell into deep thought simultaneously; the scope of the intelligence was simply too vast to locate the person they were looking for.

Sun Yulan sighed, lowered her head, and said no more. Pity that she had been clever her entire life, only to give birth to a son as foolish as a pig.

The Beishi army stormed the city walls, and Beishi generals led wave after wave of troops in bloody combat against Di Qing, Huang Zhong, and others atop the ramparts.

When the Overlord Mountain-Smashing Ape realized that a portion of its natal beast-fire source was missing and tried to recall it, it was already too late.

Even an assassin, when faced with sharp blades thrust from seven different directions, would have no way to guarantee escaping completely unharmed. Therefore, breaking out of the encirclement was the utmost priority.

Raindrops beat down upon them, yet these black-armored warriors felt not the slightest hindrance. At this moment, they were no longer quite human.

There was no need to look closely this time; with that unrecognizing-of-relatives swagger and the arrogant posture of drinking soda, who else could it be but my boy Guo?

Wei Wei instinctively blocked in front of the three of them, and all the blackish-red liquid splattered onto her. Although she was wearing celestial garments, the liquid possessed a strange property that directly shattered the magic woven into the clothes, soaking entirely into her skin.

Then Amo closed the door, slowly approached the coffin, and raised a hand to gently stroke it.

In her previous life, she had wholeheartedly devoted herself to the Marquis's estate, and since all her dowry had been confiscated by the estate, Murong Chuan had directly used her belongings to distribute porridge to gain a virtuous reputation.

Meimei glanced at Gaoxin, noting that Gaoxin had previously said, "The bald man also wanted to leave some indulgences behind for himself." What did that "also" mean?
