Chapter 24: Who Dared to Touch My Brother?

At the underground fight club, Long Aotian’s face was smeared with blood, one of his eyes swollen shut. He spat onto the floor. Across from him, his opponent glared with a wicked grin, then clenched his fists and charged toward Long Aotian with a roar. Long Aotian was at the end of his rope, able only to put up a desperate defense. If he wanted to become the leader of the Black Dragon Gang...

While killing Yuan Ruqing wouldn't have any real impact on him, the idea of reaching into someone’s heart to retrieve a bead was absurd. How could a bead have ended up inside Yuan Ruqing’s heart in the first place? Thinking of this, Ying Luo tilted her head slightly to glance at Mingzi, who wore a look of deep suspicion. Clearly, the girl doubted the nonsense Ai Ye had been spouting, as she was all too familiar with his character.

Then, I met Lin Ke’er’s large eyes once more—eyes filled with terror, a plea for help, and utter despair.

If this had been in the past, and Shi Xiangxiang had dared to act so coquettishly toward Xia Nan, he would have kicked her away without a second thought. But now, Shi Xiangxiang had lost weight and was starting to grow beautiful.

Luo Ying endured the headache, suppressing her temper as she listened to the girl chatter on and on. Though impatient, she still took in the information.

She remembered that after Young Master Bai left, only she and Chuchu remained in the room; the two of them had simply climbed onto the bed and fallen asleep. She didn’t know the old lady had returned. She didn’t usually live at the Lanwan Yayu estate, but she had agreed to come over today only because someone from the estate had called to invite her to dinner.

Watching Kurama walk away, Kakashi subconsciously tugged at his mask. He couldn’t quite understand it; they had only known each other for a mere half a month, so why did Kurama trust Ying Luo and Ai Ye so implicitly?

Drunken, she was docile, neither noisy nor troublesome. She simply stared at the lotus flowers on the lake, her gaze unfocused and hazy, a faint curve on her lips that made her look soft, sweet, and harmless.

A series of afterimages flickered; before the ten youths could even see clearly, they suddenly felt a force bearing down upon them.

Through the clear view beneath the ground, Zhang Tianyang could see the two experts looking solemn. He wondered to himself, who exactly were these two, and what kind of leverage did the Southern Prince’s Mansion have to recruit them?

Her finger rested on the trigger, perhaps wanting so badly to pull it that her knuckle had turned white. It was a pity that Liu Qinglong was standing too close to Chen Feng and Lin Xin, or else that finger might have already pulled the trigger.

Bing Yi steadied Fairy Xiao, using the force of the water column to leap upward. The Silver Frost Blade spun around her body, and as she landed, screams erupted from all around.

A three-inch golden beam struck the black lotus flower in front of him. Although the lotus shattered, the young vengeful spirit managed to escape.

Fairy Xiao insisted that Lin Hai not go looking for Ru Hua, but Lin Hai remained convinced it was necessary. He had suggested that they simply use a disguise, which only made Fairy Xiao frantic—regardless of whether they were disguised, going to find them meant that something terrible would happen.

Ron decided to return to the Imperial Capital immediately to see if Winona and Christie had made it back. If they had, perhaps he could find out from them exactly what had occurred.

Amidst the chaos, Qi Huan remained the most level-headed. He contacted the heads of the Gu family directly. They, as idle playboys, certainly wouldn't be able to gain any advantage; given the Gu family’s status, an alliance was already a significant reach for the three of them.

"Enough talk!" A surge of pride flared in Ron's heart. Although Scott’s strength far exceeded his imagination, he would not simply wait for death.

I gave a bitter smile and said, of course not. The pheasants had run over to me and the panda; they were demonized. A pheasant had transformed into a human and acted as a messenger for the Nether Ghost City, speaking at great length to me.

Duanmu Jie and Wu Yue stood on either side of the coffin, gazing blankly at Chen Feng, who lay inside as if in a deep sleep. Raindrops as large as soybeans pelted them, but they felt nothing.
