Chapter 25

The fissure extending toward Wei Wuming was abruptly severed by the shockwave, causing the ice surface to collapse entirely. A massive surge of water erupted from the Stone Lake behind.

Mona was deeply bewildered by the evidence that made it appear as though she had been the one to kill those two people, but she could not think of any other proof to clear her name. How was she supposed to help Mona find such evidence?

Upon hearing Liu Mang’s words, Elder Qi let out a sigh. He knew that Liu Mang was acting this way to help them, to ensure he would not have to pay a heavy price. Having a subordinate like Liu Mang made Elder Qi feel immensely gratified.

The red medicinal pill erupted with rolling energy, its scorching radiance blocked by layers of insects. The insects' venom was incredibly potent, leaving countless tooth marks on the pill, and hairline fractures slowly began to appear on its surface.

Seeing Rong Zhituan yield, the others were suddenly struck silent, terrified. Among them, Rong He came from the wealthiest family, and the others were merely his followers. If even Rong Zhituan could not handle this, then certainly none of the others could, so they hurriedly began to search for their families.

The Han residence was heavily guarded, not to mention how many people must be surrounding Han Yuting now that she had fallen into a coma.

Yet, the fierce beast before him showed no reaction; instead, a rebounding force sent his body reeling backward uncontrollably, nearly causing him grave injury.

Su Yiyao brought Ziyu to the inn first, asking Ye Feng to summon a doctor to examine his injuries.

Noska no longer had the heart to care whether Tanya lived or died. She stared blankly at the Spear of Hilaliel in her hand; the once vivid red shaft had begun to dim, and it showed signs of gradually dissolving, making it increasingly difficult for Noska to maintain its form.

"Does the Zheng family want me dead?" Li Jin did not ask further, handing the matter directly to Zheng Shiqing.

Huang Taidou looked back at Romney and the others, who were still being kept in the dark, and seeing they had no idea what they were eating, the anxiety he had been harboring finally subsided.

"He came to my doorstep himself, and now he refuses to leave!" Gu Han thought for a moment and replied wittily.

Returning to the secret realm, Yicheng expressed his understanding of Xin'er's words; the Butterfly God's Heart was so precious that it required the efforts of the entire tribe to obtain it. If not for Elder Hui’s decree that Xin'er help Yicheng secure the Heart, and the fact that Lady Mei Ying was temporarily residing within her body, he knew full well that he would have lacked the strength to obtain the Butterfly God's Heart on his own.

That Han Qingxing and Dan Qiao must have been in league with each other; their performance earlier had clearly been nothing but an act for them.

Lin Qingzhu knew exactly why Lin Xiao had asked her to fetch water, so after doing so, she did not return to the lounge but simply crouched quietly by the door, opening her phone to watch Lin Xiao’s livestream.

After Jing Feng was struck in the back by the Fire Cloud Wolf and subsequently trampled by its immense strength, several of his spinal bones were fractured. He could not stand and could only lie on his back, looking up at Qin Xuan and the others.

As a garrison commander stationed at Basha in Chang'an, to act so provocatively? Was he begging to be executed? While Li Guangsheng’s military discipline was strict, showing such disrespect to a superior certainly gave him a reason to die. Moreover, in using this man to set an example, Wu Zhi was likely signaling the start of her new administration.

Everyone was very particular during the meal, not uttering a single word about unrelated matters, but the conversation between Meng Anxin and the man after the meal was staggering.

Li Ling followed by his side, clutching his waist tightly in an attempt to halt his progress, but Ye Fang’s strength was too great; Li Ling could not stop him and was instead dragged along as he kept moving forward.

Kindaichi exchanged a few words with the two strangers who had interrupted, then turned to apologize to Romney and the others on behalf of Wei Ying.

"No problem!" Shanji hung up the phone, quickly exited the internet café, and hailed a taxi to the Third Hospital.

Unfortunately, since the [Oath Ring] was currently being used on Bessonova, Zhang Heng could only rely on observation and comparison to conduct lie detection on his interlocutors.

The pressure of the past few days vanished in an instant. Tu Fei finally relaxed, ready to resume his comfortable life as a slacker for a few more days.

"Regardless of who killed them, we must exact revenge. Otherwise, our Hezhong Alliance will inevitably become a laughingstock among all factions," a tall, blonde, blue-eyed youth with bulging muscles declared, his face filled with murderous intent.

Klindt assumed that Zhang Heng had lost his composure due to the death of Otulus. After all, during the previous incident regarding the admonishment, Zhang Heng had not chosen to stand with him, leading Klindt to suspect he had secretly defected to Otulus—only for Zhang Heng’s new patron to perish after appearing for less than half a day.

"I only fired one shot." Vitas was also puzzled. He turned to look at Zhang Heng behind him, who had already stowed away the antique double-barreled shotgun.

Suddenly, many fragments from the internet flashed through his mind—films like Lust, Caution or Apple—none of which he had actually seen.

It was her first time wearing a swimsuit. The lady at the shop had told her that all swimsuits were like this, so she could not say anything and simply picked the one she found slightly more acceptable.

Was it truly alright for Hong Yan to stand up for her so many times? Did the theory of cultivation backlash still exist?

Tu Fei took a constrained sip, looked up slightly at Jiang Xinran, and noticed she looked different from the night of the interview; her makeup was more refined, making her look two years younger. Standing together, it was actually Tu Fei who looked the more mature of the two.

"And what about your dream?" Qiu Shui Changge asked in return, leaping up to sit on the intricately carved window sill.

When Yu Kongyue had given Xia Fan this token, she had said that any demon who pledged loyalty to her would obey it upon seeing it. However, with the death of the Yu Kong Emperor and Yu Kongyue becoming the undisputed successor to the Demon Throne, the power of this token had naturally grown even greater.
