Chapter 114

"Belle, how is your body feeling?" Seeing that Jin Belle looked to be in good spirits, he asked politely.

"Doctor Mo, how is my son?" Xiang Xi grabbed Doctor Mo's arm and asked urgently.

The soul fire in its mind flickered incessantly; this place felt so familiar, as if it had been here a long, long time ago.

The dark shadow grinned hideously as it released Wushang from its embrace. It used several ropes to bind its mouth and limbs before locking it into a cage with great satisfaction.

Its forelimbs bent slightly, and with a flash of red light, it arrived before Duanmu Ming.

She insisted on calling a doctor to take a look, but Madam Song was distracted. Xie Shuning felt uneasy, so she turned and instructed Mother Gui to go to the main house and invite Imperial Physician Hang. Although she did not like Imperial Physician Hang, his medical skills were excellent, so she decided to have him take a look first.

Nurse Sumala’s words were correct; after Consort Wen gave birth to a son, the situation outside had changed. The Kunning Palace was empty, after all. It wasn't that the Emperor didn't want to appoint an empress, but that the ministers were always thinking about it. Who knew when the Emperor might have a whim to appoint a new empress? No matter how arduous the wait, one had to hold on tight and not let go.

As for that home in the capital, he did not yearn for it at all; his aunt had already given him an incredibly warm home. He did not miss his father either; the mere thought that he and his two younger brothers were born to three different mothers made him feel exceptionally uncomfortable.

Liu Xiangchun had reached a dead end. Da Ya had been avoiding her lately. Whenever she went to the Jing Garden to see Da Ya, at least five out of ten times, Da Ya would feign illness or claim she was tired and sleeping, never coming out to entertain her or receive her greetings.

Pei Xiner hurried over and recounted one by one who was to be removed, who was only to have their salary docked, and who was to be punished with the rod, before finalizing the number of people the Old Madam needed to support. Seeing that the Old Madam agreed without even knitting her brows, she could not help but be shocked, privately marveling at the Old Madam's connections.

The meticulous Lin Huan immediately glanced at the counter and found the photo frame still standing there. To his surprise, the photograph had been put back inside. It was the original photo, but it looked brand new—it must have been reprinted—because the original was still in Abobo’s hands, displayed in Lin Huan’s room.

Yu You looked up at the name of the mall and told her. From beginning to end, Tutu remained her good friend.

Zhang Wei hurriedly stopped Lin Kuang. If they were to compare who was more disgusting, they were truly not even a fraction of that evil spirit.

Two years ago, the newly promulgated Tourism Law had the core objective of resolving the ills of the industry.

However, because they did not practice internal alchemy and breathing techniques, the masters of this lineage were far fewer than those of other factions, and the cultivation of the average descendant was not as good as others. Not everyone could endure the long suffering of tempering their bones, and not everyone possessed such perseverance.

The water burial in Hongming Village was extremely similar to this later, rather "heavy-tasting" method, or rather, it was entirely of the same origin.

"Why bring up the past again! It is your wedding now, and both sets of parents are watching. Let's finish the ceremony first," Yu You glared.

Li Wei picked up his wine glass suspiciously, watching them smile. He did not know what they were planning, but since they wouldn't say, he would have to taste it himself to find out.

The conference room door was tightly shut. This had once been a sacred and majestic place one dared not approach. Having been at the company for so long, this was his first time being this close, and he felt a sense of oppression in his heart.

At this moment, his limbs had reverted to that thick, burly physique, as if a monster’s branches had grown upon a human torso; it was extremely discordant.

The black light descended with an incredibly heavy aura. Even though the Grand Elder of the Yinling Sect was at the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, at this moment, all he could do was swallow with difficulty.

"Fine, fine, fine, I eat grain, not people. Why are you crying?" He raised his hand to wipe the tears from her face and handed her the bowl and chopsticks. He held firmly to his principles, but he no longer wished to eat people.

Meanwhile, Gu Zheng was still above. Although he noticed the eruption of black water, he did not pay it any heed, assuming it was just some other change.

"Rest for a while, go and defeat a few Demon Trees to increase my strength, and then properly explore the undersea world," Chu Xian thought to himself.

"Many thanks, My Lord!" Ling Yuntian was overjoyed upon hearing this. He immediately excused himself and left, while Chen Yutian was led into the main hall by the Registrar, Tang Jing.

"Alright." Jiang Liushi nodded and quickly wrote down the required materials, handing them to Wang Shiqi.

Yan Wenwen and the others’ visit to his aquarium shop opening was purely a matter of personal support. They had originally planned to announce their attendance on Weibo, but were stopped by Chu Xian.

The yellow croaker here was quite good, at least much better than the fish farm Chu Xian had encountered in Haiqing City, though it still fell short of those from Nanji Island, and the price was not cheap.

Although he was not particularly lacking in supplies, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun were always in need. Ran Xiyu had participated in the battle this time and would receive a fair share, but ordinary food was still scarce. In any case, collecting a little more was always good.

"They aren't here; they are in City H. My mother is a teacher at the university there, and my father is the mayor," Xiao Xiao replied.

Zhang Shao felt panicked in his heart. Just as he was wondering how to explain, a person suddenly sat up on the cart behind the eunuch, and with a flick of a blade, severed the eunuch’s head.

However, before such a warning could take effect, she saw that the midwife who had come to handle the newborn was none other than Liu Sisi.

An Yichen nodded, "See you at dinner then." After saying this, he ran down. After running the first lap, An Yichen walked a few steps and began the second. When he ran to the foot of the mountain, he suddenly felt a tremor, and rocks began to roll down from the side.

Qin Yu nearly gasped for air. She clutched her forehead, about to speak, when an argument broke out from the direction of the ward.

"Heh, you really were given a shattered ending this time." Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Yang Qi landed from mid-air, his eyes fixed on the spot where the lightning had struck, but there was nothing there except for the chaos left in the wake of the storm.

Just as Jiang Defang was wondering how to rescue Yang Caiyue, a cold light flashed before his eyes, and a sword was driven diagonally into the stone wall in front of him. Jiang Defang was startled, hurriedly leaping backward and assuming a defensive posture. Looking up, he discovered that the newcomer was none other than Dugu Hen.
