Volume 1, Chapter 34: Conjectures

Wang Xu, unaware that Zuo Yanming was testing him, spoke without hesitation: "The Liu family has a poor reputation; their previous projects were marred by scandals involving angry property owners causing public disturbances."

"Liu Wanyun and her father lack leadership skills, and the Liu Group is plagued by constant infighting between factions!"

"Furthermore, now that they are being targeted by the Qiankun Group, it is only a matter of time before the Liu family collapses!"

"The second-largest shareholders, Chu Wei and his son, are much better."

He continued to pour out a stream of disparaging remarks about the Liu family.

However, he did not know that after Zuo Yanming parted ways with Lin Yu today, he had conducted a thorough investigation into the Liu family. The Kangle Garden project, which Liu Wanyun had personally overseen, had received widespread acclaim.

The Crown Prince pushed open the door and walked directly toward the bedroom. In his view, there was nothing improper about this; the entire Crown Prince’s Mansion belonged to him, and naturally, he could go wherever he pleased.

While watching television that evening, she heard the host say that the black gemstone was priced so highly because it was naturally shaped like a rabbit, appearing more still and natural than any man-made carving—a truly miraculous existence.

Gu Lan-shan lowered her head and followed Sheng Shi’s hand, seeing the cold stone pendant hanging casually from his fair, slender fingertips.

Because she had set everything in motion after Chi Yan’s heart was excavated long ago, the parasite, having entered his demonic core, had altered his state of mind.

"Do I need your permission for what I do? Even if Mu Jingyan finds out, so what?" A playful smirk touched Rong Qian’s lips. Her gaze swept over the crowd below, her bright eyes as cold as Arctic ice. "Besides, since I have come here, do you really think he will know?"

In just a few short months, he had grown much thinner, which pained those around him. He was truly incapable of taking care of himself; if not for someone watching over him, he would surely have grown even thinner—it had reached the point of self-abuse.

Yet, this beauty carried a chill; everyone felt their spines grow cold. Though beautiful, it lacked all signs of vitality.

He looked at the photos for a while, then stared fixedly at me. The expression on his face was indescribably strange. Perhaps, as intelligent as he was, he already knew I was an orphan, even if I refused to say it.

"Silly girl, what are you so happy about?" Li Huaishi pounced on Xu Xiangxiang like a wolf, pinning her beneath him.

He swallowed a pill to restore his magical power and managed the grand formation, desperately trapping the second-rank late-stage Golden-Striped Tiger, preventing it from supporting the battle of its three cubs.

Looking at the speech in his hands, Jack paused; suddenly, he did not want to follow the planned script.

At this moment, the sixth batter was called back to the dugout, where the fourth batter and Manager Nitta were arguing intensely.

Because this matter was true and impossible to refute, what she had just said sounded somewhat ungrateful.

"Good my foot, *cough, cough, cough*, we are leaving to head back tomorrow." Tu Yaoyao lifted her teacup, looking utterly bewildered.

"Daoist, it’s you!" Seeing it was Daoist Qingxu, Chen Fangfei breathed a sigh of relief; she had truly been frightened just now.

Locked in the room, Princess Jiang Yunqing could only vent her frustration on the bed. Yuan Shengli walked in with a sneer: "Princess Yunqing, you’ve seen it, haven't you? Your imperial brother clearly intends to keep you locked up, and as for His Highness, he likely only has Chu Wanning in his heart and has forgotten you, his sister."

Once he reached a new realm of cultivation, he would be able to inject more fresh blood into the family, further elevating the scale and power of the Xiao family, thereby creating a virtuous cycle.

The rebel army had already reached Xuanfu. With two massive forces closing in, even the shops in the capital had mostly shuttered.

Since there were people supporting him, he could naturally shift all the blame onto Yang Qi, for he possessed the authority and the strength to do so.

"You are Kong Xiaotong’s father," he said to the old man. There was not a hint of doubt in his tone, only absolute certainty; it was clearly not a guess, but a statement of fact.

"Mengqi, from this day forward, I will not let you suffer again." With that, he placed Xu Mengqi into the Heaven-Universe Ring, along with Liu Tianli, instructing him to find a comfortable place to settle Xu Mengqi.

"It is getting livelier here. When I came last time, there weren't this many shops on this street," Xia Liu said with a gentle smile.

On the path of cultivation, the strong are supreme, and high-grade techniques are absolutely essential to becoming a powerhouse.

The energy archer of the La Shen team was still pondering a strategy to deal with Shi Qianwei when an arrow shot toward him. In an instant, the energy archer tried to dodge; while he saved his vital organs, his arm did not escape, and the arrow pierced straight into it.

"This temple has stairs leading upward on the side, so there should be a third floor." The fragmented remains of the Ancient God’s body should be hidden in this temple; it was unclear which part the fragments belonged to.

The Heavenly Dao army led by Jiang Xing and Han Kexin was in a state of complete suppression. The Alliance was already beginning to show signs of defeat; if not for a few experts within the Alliance resisting stubbornly, the defensive line would likely have been broken long ago.

Cooperating with Du Zhan, Lin Zhishao calculated in his mind how to push Yu Ruyan into the embrace of Director Wu.

"Just because they all wanted to leave you, you killed them all? Tian Jingwan left you so many years ago, and you were still planning how to kill her?" Tang Guo was shocked.

In the next moment, an unparalleled beam of sword light descended, like lightning from the nine heavens, tearing through space and illuminating the heavens and earth.

However, Chu Tian possessed the Eight-Armor grade Soul-Protecting Immortal Armor, so he was unafraid and continued toward the second floor.

This point is actually very important, because in past experience, many high-level officials from the two major clubs who had stepped down eventually chose the Feixin Dojo as their place of retirement, especially those represented by Senior Karotus.

The Primordial Star has survived since the previous epoch; how many secrets it holds and how many monsters it has birthed, I am afraid no one can say for sure.

The Sunset Beast wanted to rescue him, but Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong fought to the death to hold it back. After the Age Beast vanished, the Black and White Impermanence charged over.

Christie happily noticed this, then pressed her soft, pale-pink lips against Ge Sheng’s.

Supreme artifacts also differ; there are offensive ones, defensive ones, and now, this kind—a summoning-type supreme artifact. Once activated, it is equivalent to summoning a supreme being to assist in battle, which is simply exhilarating.

Although Kazama Hanyue dodged that Palm Thunderbolt, its momentum remained undiminished, striking a tree nearby.

At this moment, a radiance arrived from afar. With a flick of her hand, Zi Han blocked the streaming light with a palm. In the instant they collided, light splashed everywhere, and Zi Han lunged out to kill.

"You don't need to act; I will deal with this guy," Jiang Yuxuan sneered. This fellow had actually dared to set his sights on Su Yumou; how could Jiang Yuxuan let it go?

Operating the Miaohua Guiyuan Manual in secret, Ye Haochen’s internal energy circulated through Le Yao’s body, and her condition gradually became clear in his mind.
