Chapter 32: His A-Ying Would Never Forgive Him

But once Mo Gang admitted defeat, I could no longer attack him. Otherwise, the academy’s rules would never tolerate me.

“In the Immortal Realm, it is rare for immortals from the lower realm to wander about outside the cities, because the wilderness beyond the city walls is dangerous,” the old man said.

Everyone’s hearts sank. This time, they were surely doomed. Who could have imagined that merely coming to watch the ceremony would cost them their lives?

“Young Master Sima, you are too kind. Just give the order,” Tyrannosaurus said with a smile that did not reach his eyes.

They walked to the most famous restaurant on the street, one run by Eggmon. The dining hall was bustling and already packed with Digimon. Eggmon greeted the customers with a beaming smile, his eyes nearly squeezed shut with delight, while several Digimon hurried back and forth between the hall and kitchen, bringing out plate after plate of delicacies.

Qiu Rong’s expression was unpleasant. She had never imagined that Madam Niu could be so unreasonable as to force her to make such a request to the old madam.

Even Venerable Lin was shaken when he came here. Of course, he had not come to drink, so the foreign liquor did not impress him in the slightest. Besides, although he was a mercenary, he was not some ignorant bumpkin who had never seen the world.

Master Yan remembered that he had dissolved the spiritual energy within his body in no more than the time it took to burn a few sticks of incense.

Tang Mei watched as dish after dish of exquisite food was served, and recalled how Nanny Yao had led her and the two maids directly from the western side gate of the inner entrance to this courtyard.

If someone else had wrecked the place, Brother Wolf could have reported it to the gang leader, and the gang would have covered the cost of renovating the damaged premises.

It had already been more than a month. When exactly were you going to stop? My refusal could not have been any clearer—how could you still not understand?

Suddenly, Lin Yicai let out a soft cry of surprise. She immediately leaned close to Li Ding’s ear and whispered something to him.

Even if Luo Shujun knew about the trouble Wang Nuo was facing with the charity foundation, she would understand that much of Wang Nuo’s hesitation stemmed from the promise involved: four years and two hundred million.

Chen Qiusheng looked at me suspiciously, a trace of viciousness showing in his eyes. Clearly, he did not believe what I had said.

She did not mean to blame him. He had not forced her; she had insisted on coming herself. Now that she was heartbroken after discovering something she could not accept, what right did she have to blame anyone else?

Halfway there, Lin Miaotong recovered some of her strength and wanted to walk on her own. Li Ding did not insist, so he set her down, took their hands, and led them toward their temporary lodging.

First, if you wanted to serve as a figurehead, a bachelor’s degree would be an obstacle. Second, once you became the figurehead, that degree would naturally become a weakness. Finally, it would become something others could seize upon to humiliate you.

Yun Huan hesitantly looked toward Qiao Mingyue. He knew that Sister Mingyue would never lie, but if he disobeyed Marshal Wen’s wishes, could they still call themselves the Wen Family Army?

“I believe you.” Hearing his words, Qiao Mingyue felt reassured. She took his hand of her own accord and followed the Third Prince and the others toward the rear mountain.

Zhou Minghai was certainly a safe person to whom the information could be leaked. They worked at the same research institute, and he was also the chief analyst in the securities market. Once he received the data, he would definitely understand the rules. It was virtually harmless.

“Swallow you into your stomach?” Feng Duwu looked at the lively, fully grown man before her. The thought of swallowing him whole was difficult even for her to accept.

Xiao Yuanshan had been staggering drunkenly just moments ago, but now his face was perfectly clear. Sakai Mie was completely bewildered. She took the keys and started the car.

Suanni sneered. “If Big Brother were here, you would probably already be lying on the ground. Since you want to see him, just wait while I capture you and carry you there myself.” He slapped both hands against his waist, and an iron chain appeared in his grasp.

“Did you set up a barrier that would last one and a half million years?” That was what he most wanted to understand.

Huo Yi, who had just advanced to the initial completion of the third stage, became an instructor for the preparatory class of the Pure Water Sect. What was a preparatory class? It was for those who could not be accepted by the Pure Water Sect as formal disciples. They first joined the sect through the preparatory class, and only after passing the next disciple examination would they officially become disciples of the Pure Water Sect.

Of course, Lin Yu could not let his guard down either. At present, among the suspects Chen Pengfei had said could be discarded, there was Number Sixteen, Enhui.

A smear of black-red fluid slid from the corner of Qian Yeyao’s eye. Even so, the other eyeball, the one that had not been gouged out, continued to glare fixedly at the place where Wu Da had stood.

However, compared with the strength of the ancient emperors of the royal family and those true powers who could dominate the imperial court, it was simply too insignificant. So this place could only serve as somewhere to retire, while slowly drifting along and doing little of consequence.

She was uncertain whether it was true or false, but Wen Xue’s various actions seemed to confirm her suspicions.

Judging from these people’s appearance, they did not seem to be hiding the Grand Elder. But they had been the only ones present just now. If they had not tampered with something, how could the Grand Elder have slipped away right under her nose?

After going downstairs, however, he did not return to his room. Instead, he ran toward the bamboo grove.

Conditions on the battlefield were harsh. If the soldiers’ wounds were not treated properly, they could become infected and even lead to sepsis.
