Chapter 24

Lin Yunfei only cared about results; he was certain the young man in black was now extremely wary of his identity. As his words fell, Tong Xuan was about to execute Ye Feng when his complexion suddenly paled, his black aura destabilizing violently, trembling and contorting grotesquely. "Do remote regions steal your rice? Drink your water?（connect）your WIFI? Or throw your children down wells?" Before the physical training classes, Wang Jia would often go into the mountains with friends to gather herbs, a common practice in Luocheng. Now, exhausted every day, she could no longer venture into the mountains like before, yet she still came to the pharmacy every night to help her father. Ling Zhi and Yun Jiuqing left for a while due to prior commitments, promising to return later. Could a single Chinese expert really eliminate five national branches in half a day? With just these innate realm cultivators, could they truly stop him? "Alright, you mother and son are rebelling," Yu Huang spat with a palm print on her face, glaring venomously at Zhou Biyu. Because Yun Jiuqing had instructed Ye Xilian not to provoke her, she（I almost couldn't help it）not cursing out loud. "Add two more drops; it's too obvious, and it'll backfire," Bai Jinhai said, using his fingertip to collect two drops and carefully applying them to the rim of Bai Su's wine glass. Seeing the effect, Ye Feng immediately pressed her advantage by mentioning Ye Yunyong, her ex-boyfriend, knowing it would（touch a string）her even more. "He's here too," Xiao Mingxin noticed a young man in the latter half of the procession, flanked by two similarly dressed men—his subordinates. It was none other than Li Yingba. "Without a massage therapist, why are they studying that projection?" he wondered as he glanced at it. "Never mind. Please have Master Wuwei take Young Master Lu to the guest room to rest. I will go find Master Lingxu to discuss something," Yun Mo Xi said. Fang Yue wanted to challenge her authority, so she decided to show her capabilities to prove she deserved the general manager position. If things had gone differently, would there have been fewer heartaches for Cheng Leng? He looked at Lan Li with a burning gaze, uncertain what he was hoping for—or if it was just a（obsessiveness）left by Duanmu Xi. The first piece of intelligence: No one with a left ring finger longer than the middle finger had been found in Northern Desert. Zhou Lin didn't consider reducing the number of artifacts because he already possessed decent ones. If the ones he crafted were inferior to his existing collection, there was no point in making them. The latest message he held revealed that Miss Lu had not returned to Xitang but had gone to Dongyue instead. The master would be... sigh. From a psychological perspective, his cold and rigid demeanor was a form of self-protection, likely stemming from deep-seated insecurities. After a clash, the divine thunder's mace finally crushed the massive energy sphere, which then deflated like a leaky balloon. To everyone's surprise, the wealthy and established Mei family not only didn't resent him but actually helped him. The hatch opened, and the Aro Star people jumped out one by one, the most eye-catching being the one with a green tint on his head, his face a bitter expression, exuding a power level at least one tier higher than the ground commander. Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Bai Lai quickly retracted half of his troops, allowing Wu Qi and the others to breathe a sigh of relief before continuing on their way. He turned to strike at Die, who nimbly dodged after a successful hit. Then, Ke Mi'er stepped forward,（shield）smashing with her innate brute strength. Even the vampires, known for their physical prowess, were forced to retreat under her assault. Such a mismatch in power dynamics was unsettling for everyone except those aligned with Kong Feng and Shan Feng. Lin Xuan's words made the conductor's eyes flash with red light, but he ultimately said nothing. During the spatial jump earlier, he had tried to control the train to eliminate this enigmatic man, but failed. With that settled, Gu You Ran knew better than to voice her thoughts aloud. Unlike others who crowded around, she and Qin Yushen stood apart, drawing even more attention. Yan Yun Songzi hurried over to see that they had reached the halfway point of the mountain. To her, Du Ziyuan was her foster mother's disciple and, in a sense, her little brother. Moreover, Du Ziyuan had played a significant role in her relationship with Mu Cheng'an; without him, they（almost）had no chance. Shui Menghua glanced at Leng Yue with complaints in her eyes, her face slightly swollen. "I think what you said on the phone yesterday was clear. I heard everything and believe you'll keep your promise. Do you need me to remind you every moment? Or do you prefer my constant supervision?" Chen Xing said nonchalantly.
