Chapter 21: Blasting the Mountain to Shatter the Corpse
Because the location of the appendix was difficult to fix, Qin Lang incised the posterior peritoneum below the outer side of the cecum, then wrapped the cecum with gauze and flipped it upward, finally exposing the appendix.
Under the deliberate distortion of facts by those with ulterior motives, these fools—who were ignorant of the truth, cynical, and easily manipulated—truly believed that Xiaoxiao was unilaterally fawning over the Gu family, and that the Gu family had been forced to accept her against their will.
The Empress had commanded that, by any means necessary, the Mu household must be forced to accept the betrothal gifts today; otherwise, it would be difficult to handle once the Empress Dowager returned in the evening.
"There's a carriage, too?" Yu Qing looked behind her in surprise. It was not strange to see ox carts in this era, as rural areas relied primarily on oxen for plowing the fields.
The eldest son of the Zhou family was so furious his eyes bulged, but before he could speak, Grandma Ruan’s voice drifted down from upstairs.
If her family were to learn that the original owner had often been abused by her second uncle, and that her serious illness was due to everyone’s attention being focused on Ning Fengnian, it would only cause them guilt and remorse without providing any real benefit.
Li Zong and the officials of Joseon behind him were suddenly gripped with terror. How could the Son of Heaven know what they had said behind his back?
Cheryl nearly blurted out "I," but stopped herself, able only to comfort her sister.
Chuck said expressionlessly, "He was foolish enough not to accept my advice. So, to set a good example for the world, I must use my actions to show everyone what a wise decision looks like."
Meanwhile, on the imperial highway leading from the capital to Jinling, there were many merchants trying to earn a final profit before the season turned into the bitter cold of winter. The Grand Princess’s entourage, accompanied by the strictly disciplined Imperial Guards, was particularly eye-catching.
"Wang... help me... loosen the... strap a little. It’s making Sonya... so uncomfortable." Just as Wang Darong’s hand was about to touch a place on Sonya that should not be touched, she spoke in broken, stuttering Chinese.
Upon entering Summoner's Canyon, the KT team played with great aggression, but thanks to the tight defense of the "Champion Team," no level-one team fight broke out between the two sides.
"Don't be polite. Let's find a place to eat, briefly discuss our cooperation, and in two days, we will go to Qingyun City in Minnan Province to discuss the development steps in detail," Lin Xiangxue arranged calmly.
Xia Xun gently closed the bamboo door. With a warm smile, he looked at the azure sky and then at the dozen or so figures standing in front of the Scripture Pavilion on the hillside.
Having said this much, three parts of his anger were already visible. If he were to say any more, he would truly have to tear off the mask of civility.
After Su Meng went out, she did not go to the restroom but instead went to the stairwell at the end of the corridor to catch her breath.
"I told you to go, so go!" Wang Darong raised his brow. Chang Yue glared at him, ran over to turn on the television, and immediately froze in place.
It would be unbelievable if Xia Xun did not know he had been surrounded. Yet, if he did know, why was he still so composed?
If they let her run away from home like last time, it would be better to simply let her go out for a while; at least they would still be able to keep track of Yao Jiawen’s whereabouts.
However, since everyone had said so, Liu Fei could not say much more. She ran to get the bread for Lin Feng.
Wang Chun took Chen Feng and left. The few A-rank powerhouses did not actually pursue them; instead, they stopped and, with grave expressions, surrounded Wang Yao.
Lin Feng was very satisfied. In this way, a complete pyramid structure would be formed within Villa No. 11.
Seeing the fate that had befallen Iori Yagami, Takuma Sakazaki shook his head, unable to bear the thought of attacking him further. He closed the doors of the Kyokugenryu dojo and ordered all his disciples not to disturb that madman.
After Xie Yeyu and Li Ziyan boarded the magnificent carriage, they saw the stunning beauty of its owner.
Hai Mingzhu checked and re-bandaged the wound on Zhang Changong’s shoulder again, trying to minimize the possibility of infection.
Qian Weidong flopped down next to him and said, "Fine, fine. Since you won't let me have any peace, if President Huang calls to urge me for the report later, you can answer it yourself."
Stephen needed to preside over an ultra-large-scale spell ritual to turn the entire area within the Mythallar’s reach into an "Area of Active Magic."
"Alright, let's just go with us few. If Ying is worried about your master, he can stay hidden in the shadows," Feng Yufei decided.
Although they lacked the leverage to bargain, Luo Lie believed they still had a chance to survive in the cracks.
Arriving at the weapons system, Wu Tian began to study it. After all, he did not know much about the technology of this universe; no matter how clever he was, he could not master the weapons system immediately.
It was only later that one of his livestreams was caught by people from his sect. They demanded back all the profound cultivation techniques from his ring, leaving him with only low-level ones.
At the foot of Buzhou Immortal Mountain, after hearing the black-robed cultivator’s words, the Innate Yin Fetus struggled to shake its body, clearly wanting to thank the being who had created it.
Wukong and the others wiped out the demon soldiers completely, and with that, all the invading enemies fell before Mount Buzhou.
"This is our mission—to destroy your home. For that, I can only say I am sorry. But to prevent anyone from misusing the power of the Dragon Vein in the future, I have no choice. I hope you can understand," Zhang Ye replied to Sarah with a standard response.
Moreover, ordering takeout has become popular, and students are addicted to playing games in their dorms, all of which has led to the cafeteria business becoming increasingly difficult to run.
Suddenly, someone shouted excitedly: "It passed through! It passed through! The whole city passed through!" Sure enough, apart from the initial collision that caused an explosion, the entire city had actually begun to pass through the spatial turbulence.
At this moment, the giant searchlight on the ghost ship was switched on, appearing like a rising sun on the pitch-black sea, instantly illuminating the surroundings.
He had asked Victor just a moment ago; the guy was still on the road and would take at least three days to reach the Azure Dragon Mountain Range.
"It's nothing, just thought of some strange things." Chang Fei turned around and saw his ship-girl staring at him with a murderous intent.
