Chapter 111: Has the Chen Family’s Sky Come Crashing Down? A Tycoon from Hong Kong City Comes Calling...

"Dad, don’t get worked up yet! Your health is what matters most."

Chen Dazhu was panting heavily, his chest heaving violently.

A job that had cost him more than a thousand yuan was gone in less than two months after he got it—how could he possibly not be furious?

Maeve held out the red wine to him, her face clouded with displeasure. The glass in her hand had been naturally chilled by the Snow Sprite, exuding a faint, icy chill.

Another fight broke out in the cellar. The slant-eyed man went to the backyard and lifted the wooden board to check what was happening below.

"Heavenly Might Shield!" Lu Xiaoyao immediately cast a buff on Zhu Ziji. In the distance, the inner demon was locked in a fierce struggle with Zhu Ziji, fist against sword. Even while being suppressed, it did not fall behind.

With his body tempered through threefold physical refinement, and with a not-insignificant level of spiritual power besides, if the Lord of the Yellow Springs Gate did not use some special means, he really would be hard to deal with. He might even lose.

Huang Jin checked the three beastly creatures in succession and found that the wounds on them were not deep. For demon beasts, injuries of this degree were nothing more than a scrape of the skin, with virtually no effect on their fighting strength. Could they have been poisoned?

Even so, Luo Li remained alert, yet she had no way to deal with the black crystal stone. In the eyes of the Hager people, the Violet Ore was merely an energy source. Though its power was enormous, the Violet Ore before her now seemed almost alive, actually hovering on its own in midair and interacting with Zong Yu inside the time-space hourglass.

At that moment he was drenched in blood, his eyes filled with murderous intent, like a blood demon descending into the world, like a death god reaping lives.

Gu Junzhi shifted slightly, seeking a more comfortable position. He wanted to wait and sleep with her, idly toying with the ribbon at her waist. His thoughts drifted far away. In the limited memories he had of his mother, she had been gentle and smiling, always trying to give him the greatest support and encouragement—but hers seemed different.

The other four agreed, and so the five of them formed a circle and sat on the ground, chatting.

However, after learning these inside details, Lu Qingyu felt an inexplicable loosening in his heart. He was certain he had to return to the Dark Viper Alliance, because there was still Kong Dongyang there who needed his rescue.

"Cough, cough." The Golden Wheel Dharma King covered his chest and swallowed the warm liquid that surged up his throat.

As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle. If she wanted to eliminate her romantic rival, the most important thing was to understand everything about that rival—their personality, their weaknesses, or any leverage she could seize. Only then could she devise a plan to ruin the other woman’s engagement.

Song Lingyan glanced at Lu Qingyu’s palm. Although the black flames had already vanished, that familiar aura still remained. It was an aura of yin—there could be no mistake.

Kong Xuan turned in midair and landed lightly on the ground, but Helian Nuo did not rush to pursue her; instead, he halted where he was.

Believing there should be no danger along this route, Gong Shiyu had confidently let Minister Du of the Ministry of Rites lead the Moonwind Kingdom envoy party ahead, while the siblings themselves wandered and played their way toward Mian Mountain.

It was not over yet. White Wolf was indeed no simple opponent. By now the two sides were evenly matched. Mumu prepared to counterattack.

He did not know that the path he had escaped along, exploiting the security gap between the Capital Guard and the soldiers conducting a strict search in Yandu, had been deliberately opened by someone.

The Wind Cauldron shrank back, seeming a little aggrieved. If it had been the Wind Cauldron itself, it would certainly not have feared the Fire Cauldron. But now the one controlling it was only resentment and corruption; it was only natural that it would fear the Samadhi True Fire.

"No... problem!" Gong Shiqin had meant to say that as long as they knew each other now, that would be enough, but before he could finish, Di Baobao cut him off with what she said next.
