Chapter 62: Secretly Sent Away

In the eyes of the Underworld Palace, Su Tian was now on their side.

Yet he also had to prepare for the event of his exposure. Once exposed, those closest to him would inevitably be in danger.

His mother was the very first in line, which was why he had to secretly send her away before Azure Dragon and the others arrived in Jiangcheng, ensuring that the people of the Underworld Palace remained unaware.

......

Just now, she had been pondering Luo Qingyue’s motives and thoughts, turning it over in her mind for a long time without figuring out why Luo Qingyue had brought her here.

Perhaps her breath was too faint to emit any sound, yet the moment she saw her, a glimmer of vitality and light returned to her eyes.

"So what if it's not efficacious? Anyway, I'm with you now, and you wouldn't not be with me, right?" Li Weixiao rolled over again, resting prone on Lin Yuan'ai's chest as she looked up at him and asked with certainty.

In truth, she rarely reminisced about the past because deep down, she was somewhat afraid—afraid to see how things that were once so beautiful between her and Twenty could have turned out like this.

Much like Song Jiang, he did not believe that a living person could fly through the sky. Yet so many people had witnessed it with their own eyes, coupled with the footage captured on-site by the municipal television station's news van, making it impossible not to believe even if you wanted to.

Regrettably, no sooner had this Martial Saint condensed into form than Li睿 let out a cold laugh. With merely a thought, the formidable and majestic Lord Guan vanished instantly, merging directly into the surrounding grandmothers.

The moment the threads entered the Earth Deity Tablet, Li Rui distinctly perceived the tablet's hunger, followed by a warm sensation that lingered in his mind before growing tranquil once more.

When Sheng Shi answered the phone last night, she was still at a dinner party. Afterward, when making this soy-sauce pendant for her, he must not have had the time to have any dealings with Su Jiaojiao, which was why she had shown leniency, summoning only butterflies rather than releasing bees.

As for how formidable the background of this man—whose appearance could be described as breathtakingly striking—truly was, they had no idea, which was why they dared not provoke him lightly.

"Director Xie." Lin Shenshen curved her lips into a smile, her eyebrows and eyes instantly becoming animated, looking exceptionally enchanting beneath the glazed lights.

In this freezing midwinter lunar month, Ye Xian broke out in a cold sweat, his hands and feet cold and stiff, feeling as though his entire body was completely paralyzed.

However, once Li Jindong finished his conventional opening remarks, his expression suddenly shifted, and he began chatting amiably and in low tones with Elder Luo, appearing as though they were old acquaintances.

Cui Ying suddenly recalled what she had instructed before moving out, her momentum instantly waning by more than half, though her expression remained cold as she averted her face and refused to speak.

He could be certain that if he himself, or Cape Corporation, were to propose acquiring the formula for the "Blood-Nourishing and Qi-Replenishing Pill" from Changsheng Pharmaceuticals, the Cheng family would either make exorbitant demands or flatly refuse.

Tasked by Hong Ji with investigating this matter, she had suddenly received a summons from the Rong Residence. She was ordered to immediately kill Qin Xiangxiang, a pivotal clue closely tied to Rong Cang's destiny. Furthermore, she had neither room for refusal nor any pretext for delay.

"Qiu Yang?" Captain Liang said, "What does this have to do with Qiu Yang?" Naturally, he knew Qiu Yang, having heard his songs before. Coupled with the fact that Qiu Yang was constantly making headlines and trending searches, the name was practically thunderous to his ears.

It could be considered avenging his younger brother while also securing a portion of capital to expand business in the United States—truly killing three birds with one stone.

However, this did not mean the headhunting agency could make the final decision on specific candidates for them; they still needed to conduct their own evaluations and assessments.

Although Wang Jianan and You Naijiang paid little attention to the boot-ceremony of the *Infernal Affairs* production crew, reports regarding the ceremony still made it onto the broadcasts of major provincial satellite TV stations and even the CCTV Movie Channel by evening.
