Volume One, Chapter 29: Anger

“Sun Mao, what are you trying to do!”
Seeing Sun Mao grab Montage without warning, Wang Meng hurried forward to intervene.
But with his hands bound by handcuffs, he was no match for Sun Mao.
As soon as he approached, Sun Mao shoved him aside.
“I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
Montage was astonishingly calm, even a little baffled.
He was minding his own business—why was trouble suddenly coming his way?
“You killed my uncle and still want to deny it? I’ll make you pay!”
Sun Mao shouted, landing a punch on Montage’s face.
“Sun Dehong is dead?”
Not only Montage, but Elder Jiang and the others were stunned as well.
Just moments ago, everything was fine—how had things turned so quickly...
As if afraid Qin Beidou would cause trouble for Ye Shanghan, Ye Yongchun tried to smooth things over. At the same time, she subtly drew Ye Shanghan to her side, as if to shield her.
With Ye Yongchun’s entrance, the security guard at the door quickly and respectfully turned on the lights in the private room.
“I’ve told you all before, things are complicated in these mountain areas. The work can’t be rushed, it must be done step by step—step by step! Do you understand? Look at this mess now, what do we do?” The local middle-aged policeman, after the Sichuan officer finished speaking, complained with veiled hostility.
Spring Rain, with worried eyes, watched silently as events unfolded. It seemed as if she sensed something and immediately looked down, gazing at the sea of purple flames a thousand meters below.
Qin Menglong bit his lip tightly, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes. In this battle, his grandfather had been killed, his father too, and his clan suffered heavy casualties; all of this had been brought about by him.

Whether it was spiritual roots or medicinal herbs, apart from the initial ones simply dug out, the rest were carefully cut out with surrounding soil and moved into the storage ring. With the ring’s short-term preservation and Holly’s meticulous care, they could likely survive.
“That’s right. I can defend decently, but if I went one-on-one against Lando, I couldn’t stop him. He’d probably make me look like a fool.” Feng Haibin recalled all of Lando’s solo matches in his mind, speaking with a sense of helplessness.
Indeed, his current pulse-driving technique was the diagram for refining the elixir into a baby. Each major acupoint required powerful slapping and vibrating of the meridians, his body echoing with sharp slaps as he worked, multitasking with difficulty.
“What else can I do? It’s not like I wanted to end up this way.” Lawson spread his hands with an air of resignation, utterly unfazed.
They hurried silently back to the tunnel with the elevator effect. After confirming both ends were sealed, the three sat shoulder to shoulder, intending to catch their breath and rest their feet.
Because Ye Jun was involved, Chen Jin and the Jin Yang Three Evils were more restrained; after all, Ye Jun was their boss, and although he got along well with Li Zhen, they still felt some unease.
“I can’t stab you to death!…” Zuo Yuanzhou gritted his teeth, frantically wielding the Xihe Immortal Sword, ignoring the agonizing pain in his arm, desperate to dislodge Shen Yu from his body.
Seeing Bai Zhenyu’s group of Shushan disciples forming hand seals behind him, clearly preparing a powerful spiritual attack, Shen Yu’s lips curled into an evil smile. He grabbed the Dragon-Slaying Blade and struck first.
Tears still traced Tan Shuang and her companion’s faces, yet their bow was natural, showing that Flower Butterfly had already told them about Shen Yu’s intention to make them his maids.
Though this strange young man was odd, she couldn’t help having a faint liking for him.
Li Xin waited until nightfall, after the young lady had finished seeing all her patients, before stepping forward to state her purpose.
She had seen her beloved walking side by side with Jiang Hairong, looking so much like a married couple.
“Kill them all,” Dallas said, turning to look toward Polaris, no longer concerned with what happened behind him.
Hearing Shakyamuni’s words, not only was she surprised, but also intrigued, eager to see what other formidable moves the Buddha had. The more she understood, the more confident she’d be in a future duel. Against a deity like Shakyamuni, a single mistake could mean instant death.
Suddenly, Murong Lotus’s eyes gleamed as she turned away from the direction the two vanished, glancing in the opposite direction.
When the master gave orders, the servants didn’t dare question why, and promptly carried the second lady back to the Rose Courtyard.
This person was obviously not someone to reason with, nor did he have a shred of pity for women.

The Lady of the House had shed countless tears, while Xiao Huansnow quietly watched Xiao Huanyue’s face, now wrapped completely in white gauze, lost in thought.
As they spoke, four black standard mechs appeared before everyone. Before they could react, the mechanical arms of the mechs rose in unison. A block of alloy contracted, revealing a dark gun muzzle.
“No need, you can leave. I’m going to rest.” Xia Nuanyan waved off her attendant with a yawn. Indeed, she’d been sleeping well these days, sleeping deeply, but waking up during the day felt even more exhausting. Still, she couldn’t let the medicine’s strong effect spoil Qian Nan’s thoughtful care for her.
Formalities were indispensable. After getting out of the carriage, Luo Qian’er and Feng Xuan Yu were greeted by Old Luo and all the Luo family with a grand ceremonial bow.
Otherwise, she should leave Yunzhou as soon as possible; running into Murong Liuye’s men was no joke.
Xiao Lingxiao was stunned at the wolf’s request. After so many years together, the divine wolf always acted nonchalant, never taking anything seriously, yet today it immediately wanted that stone. Was this inconspicuous stone really some extraordinary treasure?
The beggar ran ahead, Luo Qian’er chased behind, and Feng Xuan Yu watched with a look of amusement, not bothering to follow.
When Luo Qian’er learned the Fourth Prince had come to the Luo residence, she had just finished concocting the mind-befuddling drug. Old Luo sent someone to summon her to the front hall to meet the prince.
“Hahaha, for the greatness of the Ling family, no matter how busy I am, my heart is sweet.” For a moment, he felt truly spirited.
Many media outlets would claim to have exclusive gossip, but it was all smoke and mirrors.
Several voices sounded; it made sense—even though the family was insignificant, here it was a giant, so there had to be someone assigned for close protection.
It was as if the most terrifying thing in the world had appeared before them, instantly robbing them of the ability to think, leaving nothing but fear.
In their eyes, Ren Ming listened intently without speaking, naturally attributed to the president’s composure and depth; they didn’t give it much thought.
The opponent’s ability to abduct Zhou Buyi without anyone noticing was a bad sign. Ji Wuying was confident that even someone as powerful as Kumou couldn’t take Zhou Buyi from under his nose unnoticed. But that meant the opponent was even stronger than Kumou.
