Chapter 45: Journeying Up the Mountain in Search of Medicine

Meng Qinian’s palm was burning hot.

But with the foolish pillar in front provoking him, Feng Wanqing had developed a reflex to sudden contact from men and hurriedly dodged away.

The fleeting terror on Bai Jing’s face was entirely an instinctive reaction.

Meng Qinian keenly sensed something was wrong, narrowing his charming eyes. “What’s wrong with you? Did someone in the village bully you?”

Gradually, he felt warmth returning to her body, and her trembling was no longer as severe as before. Only then did he dare to slightly release his grip.

Yun Hanyue withdrew her probing gaze and headed straight for the room where the spirit pearl was kept, noticing it was already very close.

After today’s sweetness, she could no longer endure the bitterness without him, so she chose this way to be with him. As the incantation was chanted, the light array beneath them intensified.

“Rong Chengyi…” Tan Xingyun looked at Rong Chengyi in disbelief. She had always known how much effort the former had invested to reach his current position, and now handing it over to someone else was something Tan Xingyun was unwilling to witness.

A cold smile touched Tan Xingyun’s lips as she crossed her arms and leaned against the wardrobe, watching coldly as Daisy tossed and turned on the bed, deliberately avoiding a certain spot near the foot of the bed. It seemed that was where she had hidden something.

“You’re here.” Feng Wuchen brushed aside the items in front of him with his sleeve, then clasped his hands together, looking at the person kneeling before his desk.

Gu Wanwan was suddenly startled, as if something had pricked her eyes, with tears threatening to spill forth.

It wasn’t until the car stopped by the roadside that Song Chichang handed over the prepared money to me, and I was shaken awake by the weight of it all.

Amy, seeing him arrive, affectionately tilted her head to nudge his tall hat, and Shen Fei responded with a gentle touch of his front paw.

“Yan’er, come stand behind your father.” While Yu Weiyan was still admiring Bai Li Wuchen’s flamboyance, Yu Changqing’s sharp command came from behind.

“Can you speak?” Since they were out, it meant they could understand her, but whether they could speak was another matter altogether.

The wound on his neck was shallow and already bandaged, yet it still throbbed faintly, a constant reminder that the summoner profession was no trivial matter.

With less than five meters between them, Lin Yan shouted, and everyone charged forward. Seeing the gleaming blade slicing through, Huang Chao cried out and barely raised his sword for one last desperate fight.

During the three years of Yuan Biao’s underhand dealings, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun had become thoroughly familiar with Huairen County and its surroundings, so there was no worry about getting lost.

Sylvia was unsure where Xing Tianyu’s confidence stemmed from, but with no other options at the moment, she had no choice but to temporarily concede.

At the village entrance stood two horse-drawn carts loaded with many crates covered with thick cloth. One had the cloth already removed, revealing cases of mineral water.

“Benefactor, if this humble monk has done wrong, I must accept punishment. If you want vegetarian food, you’ll have to find it yourself. Once you leave, just ask any monk, and you’ll find it easily,” the Red Child said solemnly.

What she hadn’t told Shen Fei was that ever since bringing him into the six-dimensional space, his reactions had been growing stronger. That was why she tirelessly took him on tours and conducted constant mutual tests, hoping for a miracle and to uncover the cause.

Arthur smiled at Kaiyi, signaling her not to worry. A green light appeared in Arthur’s hand, gathering over the wound, which then visibly began to heal rapidly. Arthur gently squeezed the area, relieved to find the bone was unharmed, and smiled in satisfaction.

“Grandma, please don’t say that. If you hadn’t taken me in back then, I might have been taken by wild cats or dogs,” Chu Dong comforted his grandmother.
