Chapter 138

Ruoxin bypassed his body and grabbed the reins, saying, "You don't know how to ride a horse, come with me." As she spoke, Ruoxin kicked the horse's belly hard and dashed out of the inn, while Qingyi mounted another horse and followed closely behind.

Moreover, it was during the mating season. After the male snake had defeated all competitors and the female snake had opened her crown to consent to mating, the male snake swallowed her in a single bite.

However, the absence of the Heavenly Court did not mean the world was devoid of laws. The laws still existed, only operating in a different, more covert manner—such as making sworn enemies collide with one another. Regardless of which one died, the deceased would be considered as having entered the tribulation.

A sudden, inexplicable joy flashed through Jin Guangyan's heart, but he merely took off his leather shoes with a blank expression, lay down, and used her lap as a pillow.

Ruoxin looked back. Through the lower edge of her hooded cloak, she caught sight of a pair of eyes that shone brilliantly even in the dark—it was Guan Jingtian, who had gotten up at some unknown moment.

It stared at that gaze for a long time, a flash of apprehension crossing its eyes, before it closed them and fell completely silent.

Lin Tianyao nodded. Then, he began to practice while Guo Fu watched intently. After a long while, she had observed the entire routine.

"Come on, can't you let Xiao Xiao eat in peace? If there really were any trouble, Xiao Xiao would have gone to find you herself." Xu Yi mediated. It was true that anxiety stemmed from care; couldn't Jiang Yue see how much Xiao Xiao cared about Jin Guangyan? What was the point of speaking so harshly and causing Xiao Xiao needless distress?

How should she answer safely? Yan Xiaoxiao glanced uneasily at Jin Guangyan and bit the bullet as she nodded.

"I'm at the cafe near your company right now. Come down, let's meet and talk." Lin Mo directly ignored his unfriendly tone. Well, this guy's temper was naturally poor anyway; if you bothered to bicker with him every time, you'd probably be angered to death a hundred and eighty times over.

However, I did not dismiss the caregiving auntie. I simply had her work at home on a weekly basis, with her salary paid in full. Moreover, I promised her an extra bonus for transportation expenses once school starts. This way, I can continue my classes with peace of mind after the holiday, especially since a satisfactory caregiver is hard to come by.

Suddenly, with a flutter of wings, a large bird landed on a branch right in front of Miao Jueyang. Just as Miao Jueyang felt he had waited so long that even flowers would have withered, this fellow finally appeared.

"Yeah, he used to be like that, and I felt he was a good person. Now it seems he was constantly monitoring us." Rake said with a look of disappointment, staring at Fourteenth Brother's back.

"Young Master Bai, don't ask about that. Let's talk about Lei Zhensheng instead." Su Wei's attitude toward him had improved a lot now, and her voice sounded much gentler.

He knew this was due to his cultivation realm being too high; if his body's needs went unsatisfied for a long period, his cultivation might even regress.

Yet Li Weidong was already prepared. The instant Hundred Ghosts Vagrant was about to escape, he let out a long whistle.

However, after Xueqi started school, she was exposed to more things and her experiences became vastly different from mine. The containment relation between our worlds gradually transformed into an intersecting overlap; her circle expanded more and more, and a significant portion of it had completely separated from mine.

This blade plunged directly into Miao Jueyang's stomach. Overwhelmed with pain, Miao Jueyang squatted down instantly, right as those people began to kick him wildly.

"Leizi, you didn't have to bring so much stuff, you're being too formal." Miao Jueyang hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Second Leizhi. Their bond was truly rock-solid; the fact that Second Leizi could give so much money was a testament to how unbreakable their relationship was.

On February 13th, the fleeing senior executives of the Vicia Chamber of Commerce and their families fell into the trap set by the Rock Legion's army corps deployed outside the south city gate and were all captured.

"Stop right there!" Zhou Yue took a heavy step to halt his momentum, then brought his fingers together like a sword and lightly tapped the center of the bone bracelet. The bracelet instantly lost its luster and returned to normal.

The others looked at Xiao Lin with eyes full of awe, but only Xiao Lin knew that this opponent was even more terrifying than the humanoid spider or the fire-eating beast. Yet, thanks to the presence of Gu Xiaoyue, this battle had become so effortless.

At the same time, Xiao Lin was observing this strange artificial creature. In the sea, Dabai maintained a flat, fish-like exterior, and its magical body seemed capable of changing shape entirely at will. After figuring out this general rule, Xiao Lin even had Dabai attempt to transform into a giant bird and soar into the clouds.

As a Bronze-tier weapon, the physical lethality of an E-rank weapon seemed quite ordinary, not even matching some exceptionally refined Black Iron-tier weapons. However, the reasons Lu Renjia tried his utmost to sell the Holy Soul Sword to him were quite appealing to Xiao Lin.

Ever since he met Hong Cong, an inexplicable sense of unease had been driving Zhou Yue to stay away from this man immediately. Zhou Yue trusted his intuition, so he no longer intended to fleece Hong Cong heavily; instead, he chose this blunt and rude method to shake him off.

The white ape let out a heavy breath, then executed what looked like a ridiculous waving and jumping posture. Yet, with this movement, Cheng Ye's complexion turned ashen at an astonishing speed. The frozen space shattered instantly, and Cheng Ye, who was anchoring the space, suffered a certain degree of backlash and injury.

Zhou Yue pondered for a moment and finally nodded. Although he could stand high and call for the highest bidder, that would offend the Six Masters of Falling Goose坊 and appear too ostentatious, perhaps drawing the hostility of red-eyed Nascent Soul stage cultivators who might wish him harm.

Yet as luck would have it, the mantis bypassed all their vision detection and silently arrived not far from them.

Hearing this, Zhou Yue's eyes lit up. What the fat bird said was indeed the most basic principle of the cultivation world; he simply hadn't connected this fundamental principle with saving living beings immediately.

Eavesdropping like this—if discovered, not only would she, the listener, feel awkward, but the speaker would likely find it very embarrassing as well.

He truly hadn't expected that the DX team's serious, astute head coach with his ascetic demeanor would be cornered and wall-pinned against the balcony by another man for the greater part of the day.

Never expecting Gong Shaoxie to act so abruptly, Xia Fangyuan looked up at him with a mixture of surprise and delight.
