Mu Ziyun’s body trembled slightly; no matter how much effort she exerted, she could not move her feet, as if under a spell.
“I know you have this ability, please help us,” the leader pleaded without any intention of rising, continuing to appeal to Zhou Wutian.
Thanks to his sister’s introduction, Zhou Wutian gained a rough understanding: among the siblings, the sister was Luo Hui and the brother Luo Ming, both from the Luo family—one of the three great clans of the mountain city.
Cheng Xin’s action startled everyone present. Elder Deng even tried to tug at Cheng Xin’s clothes, urging her to sit down and not be so impulsive. However, Cheng Xin gave Elder Deng a reassuring look. Though she was unsure whether Qin Ming would succeed, she felt she could not let him lose face in terms of momentum.
Ye Xuan began to contemplate the matter, deliberately misreporting the news. Today’s gains were immense; not only did they learn specific information about Dong Dao, but also about the spatial rift—truly a series of fortunate events.
After today, her last thread of connection to the throne was completely severed. In this way, the brother who replaced her would have no reservations at all. Perhaps in a few years, her father and she might quietly perish one day, unnoticed, just like many fallen figures in history.
Later, Zhou Wutian casually grabbed an unlucky passerby, administered medicine, and sent him back to pack his things.
“Mind? I am from the General’s Mansion; what could possibly trouble me? Ridiculous,” Ni Fang waved his hand, dismissing the guards and entering the room with two maids carrying gift boxes.
“Crash!” Thunder roared and lightning flashed, the sky resonating with booming sounds. At that moment, amid the tremendous noise, Du Yuan suddenly awoke from unconsciousness. The entire house trembled slightly, the roaring sound seeming to threaten to hurl the entire building into the air, while fierce winds and rain battered the doors.
Cheng Xin tried hard to recall whether her memory was faulty. Before she could think clearly, her attention was drawn once again by Qin Ming’s long eyelashes.
Each genius here studied for varying lengths of time and content. The school arranged tutors and courses according to the unique traits of every prodigy. Talents from across the country came here, with only two outcomes: either graduating smoothly or being swept out for failing to keep pace.
Meimei gratefully accepted the sanitary eye and stood up to follow. Though just a few wild fruits, in this situation, they provided some nourishment, at least feeling much better than before.
Seeing the bony hand of the skeletal figure about to strike, Li Yun showed no trace of fear, embodying a certain indifference and calmness—as if a gentle breeze caressing the hilltop despite the challenge.

Yaoyue shouted loudly. Although a peerless prodigy, he feared death and did not want to die young. So now, he called upon the backing of his powerful allies behind him, hoping to intimidate Chu Chen.
Zhu Tianyun returned to Harbin, neither going to the Yabuli summer training center nor the Heilongjiang provincial base, but back to his former training center, preparing fully for the Diamond League.
At exactly 7:00 p.m., the opening ceremony officially began. The young athletes around him went on stage to take their oaths, but Zhu Tianyun did not join. Holding his phone, he happily captured the dazzling fireworks and stage performances.
“He surely couldn’t stay still; even if he didn’t know, the heir apparent couldn’t wait either. A few days ago, a letter arrived saying they planned to invite him to the capital for the wedding,” Yan’er said with a smile.
“Those are your dowry ledgers; you have to check them,” Li Ronghua said, a slight smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
Fang Xiaoling immediately spotted the three-dimensional projector in the corner, even equipped with a high-end sound system.
Though assuming the stance of the ‘Kui Xing Kicks the Dipper,’ it was, after all, learned from a movie.
He could swear to heaven that he had never been as happy as now, not even at his parents’ wedding.
Yun Yue was silent for a long time, not uttering a word. She blinked, water droplets already hanging on her eyelashes.
However, Qi Yue likely did not know that the injuries she sustained in the inner palace had already caused some irreversible aftereffects.
Another reason was that everyone had come to the secret realm following the Right Protector; many had died, but some had to return alive.
Therefore, they absolutely would not allow him to live in this world, much less a lowly prince like him, usually trampled and bullied by them, now ascending the throne, sitting above them.
When Shen Nanyi ran towards him, he truly wanted to rush forward, hold her tightly, and apologize.

For a man to easily detach himself from carnal desires, it was naturally a significant matter, involving individuals of unshakable status.
“I helped him fulfill this wish; how could he not be grateful?” Lv Ziqiao asked in confusion.
Heng En wanted to continue speaking out of dissatisfaction, but Anser interrupted him, silencing him completely.
Upon entering the room, Xingyue He suddenly took out a sphere, releasing spiritual power. The sphere swiftly ascended and formed a soundproof barrier, enveloping the three within.
“Look, Mom saw it!” An Xuan blushed, not expecting to be caught by her own mother.
Yin Yezi immediately understood her elder sister’s intention. When the steward of the Wang residence cast a glance at her, she quickly squeezed out a tear.
Su Liang wanted to say that this only made her more tired. However, the single second she glanced over was enough to see the man’s playful and deliberate look in his eyes.
Finally, the day of the surgery arrived. Shen Muxiang looked at the room full of solemn faces and felt particularly out of place.
Cheng Yueru whispered, but such a temperament only showed itself in front of Shen Muxiang.
Hu Yan saw Gui Liangshu simmering with anger and quickly spoke up, lest Gui Liangshu lose control and cause trouble for him.
“Uh...” Slightly stunned, Kamijo Touma recalled how recently Shokuhou Misaki had become increasingly bold and clingy, struggling to swallow the food in his mouth.
