“Lin Qingyue Served as an Accomplice”
“Lin Qingyue Convicted of Intentional Injury”
When they awoke, Lin Qingyue’s fans felt as though the sky had fallen.
[Impossible, impossible! It must be slander! Everyone knows Jiang Chiyu and our goddess Qingyue have never gotten along. It must be Jiang Chiyu deliberately framing her!]
[Qingyue nearly lost her life. How could she possibly be the one—]
The instant Jun Shuying crashed to the ground, Jun Tianlan seized him by the throat and drove a vicious punch into his face.
However, Zhuang Jian practiced the Prajna Diamond Art and possessed a Sacred Spirit Body. Moreover, the Heavenly Dipper Seven-Star Formation Diagram was linked to his meridians through 129,600 channels, completing his initial accumulation at the King Realm. If the Void Netherflame wished to refine him into nothingness, it would still require many long years.
Sensing the weakening breath of the person in his arms, Gu Luo raised his head toward the children and revealed an imploring expression.
Bai Kai had also brought good news. He had already obtained considerable evidence, and the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission had dispatched a work team to Tang City. In addition, the Provincial Party Committee had issued a transfer order, sending Mayor Ma to study at the Provincial Party School. This was a sign that they intended to take action against him. Transferring him from his post would make the investigation much easier.
Zhuang Jian mused over it. Although he had never regarded Huo Yuqi as a threat, she had always given him an unfathomable feeling. Though she possessed the Blood-Explosion Sacred Finger, could she truly still have the power to kill a sacred beast?
“It’s that simple?” Zhang Xinyu tentatively placed his hand on it. The next second, he was sucked inside by a powerful force.
Lin Peng gripped the other person’s hand tightly and said in a low voice. Although the two of them were practically pressed body to body, Lin Peng still could not see the other’s face. Darkness surrounded them on every side, without even the slightest glimmer of light.

“What?!” Beigong Boyu and Aji roared in unison. They immediately turned their heads toward the stunned Han Sui, exchanged a complicated glance with him, and then ran outside.
After a very long time, the virtual projection finally vanished above the city tower. Chu Yi stood silently, now possessing a clear understanding of the extraordinary forces hidden within the darkness of the present-day Blue Star.
Curious, Taishi Heng opened the box and found a hat inside. It was slightly old, but had been preserved in excellent condition. It bore no excessive decoration; it was simple and elegant, and even the logo was so understated. Yet Taishi Heng’s tears surged forth like a tide.
“Say whatever you like. Qi Hao and I have known each other for many years. They say that the wise man knows when to adapt—do I really have to teach you such a simple principle?” Zhou Sheng replied coldly.
“Died from poison?” Ling Tian was utterly astonished. He wondered whether the portion of the Blood-Transfusion Art he had mastered was incomplete, and whether that was why he had suffered a backlash from the corpse poison.
Duanmu Fei and Zhu Man freshened up briefly before the company arranged a vehicle to take them to the office area at the Baofeng Property construction site.
“I think that instead of spending your time targeting her, you should put more thought into dealing with the Xia family! The Xia father and son are the ones you should truly be avenging yourself against!” Yang Linxin said solemnly.
Agent Seven had once come from the old Eighth Unit and had been Old Dog’s teammate. After the old Eighth Unit was wiped out, this should have been the first time the two of them had met again.
