Chapter 129: The Truth Revealed
After Director Qiu Ying finished posting, Li Wanbai quickly tried to log into her own account. She had already prepared the repost caption—just four words: “Let the innocent be innocent,” a phrase that oozed sophistication. But when she attempted to log into Weibo, she ran into trouble.
“Incorrect password, incorrect password...”
Li Wanbai let out a frustrated chuckle, sensing something was amiss. Muttering curses, she snapped, “This so-called ‘Divine Company’! I just want to post a couple of sentences on Weibo, why are they being so stingy?”
Su Chengzi rolled her eyes.
In Li Mu’s hand, the thunder seal flickered, emanating an overwhelmingly fierce power. The crackling lightning carried the force of destruction.
Zhao Yan had considered seeking help from Guli Siqiu and Huiming Duosi. Though one was his elder brother and the other his master, they were still not intimately acquainted. Regardless, Zhao Yan dared not joke about the entire goblin race. For now, the matter of aiding the goblins could not be disclosed to them.
Cheng Daolong approached Li Mu, who gently patted his shoulder. Instantly, Cheng Daolong’s innate cultivation plummeted from late stage to early stage, leaving those around them puzzled.
A new outfit as a reward? This was a perfect chance for promotion. She needed to find a way to remind her—this opportunity must not be missed. The elder’s kindness now was merely transactional; it might not last.
Moonlight streamed down, casting a pale glow on the face turned away from the dazzling lights. Yet, for some unknown reason, a profound loneliness emanated from that visage.
“Hmph! I hope that’s the case! If I find out you’re being two-faced and intend to harm that child, I won’t stand idly by! The Dark Covenant still awaits. I’ve already conveyed the message. If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving!” The Moon Deity turned and prepared to depart.
Lan Xi recounted, in detail, Lei Ke’s identity and how she came to know him, carefully omitting only the incident when he angered the Emperor by smuggling forbidden items into the cold palace.
Among the army of the Mo Kingdom, Sima Yu and Nalan Xue, riding in a carriage, slept entwined, not waking until well past noon.
For some unknown reason, the ship associated with the Baroque Workshop, upon spotting the naval warship ahead, did not flee. Instead, it charged straight toward the warship.
The goblins could not see Ailin’s face beneath her cloak, nor her expression. But from her increasingly composed demeanor, they felt her anger simmering beneath the surface.
When Yu Jing left the experimental zone, the accompanying researcher twitched at the corner of his mouth. The cameras capturing the internal battle scenes were unable to record properly... The ten-layer alloy composite walls had nearly been breached. Just the repair costs for the training ground would likely consume half the newly allocated funds.
It seemed Bai Zhenghao’s luck was finally turning. Though the stones he selected lacked a grand aura, their foundation was solid. This trip was not in vain; these stones would likely double his profits without question.
Michelle shrugged, wearing an innocent expression, but she did not continue arguing with the venomous lizard.
If anyone knew that inside the courtyard’s centerpiece—the forty-eight large, red sandalwood chests with gold inlaid carvings—were locked treasures like the ruby red-glazed large plum vase, water agate peony ornament, yellow jade armrest flower, jadeite cabbage-shaped flower vase, and other historically renowned items, along with two full boxes of ancient books and famous paintings, how many ladies of the household would be blinded by envy?
Director Long had always regarded Tong Gu as a potential talent, often calling her aside for heart-to-heart talks. Yet, no matter what, he could not change Tong Gu’s nature.
In the distance, the green mountains seemed veiled in mist, dreamlike and indistinct. Nearby, lotus leaves overlapped like umbrellas, with several delicate lotus flowers emerging at varying heights. A few willow branches drifted into the scene from nowhere. Two dragonflies chased each other low, seeming poised either to rest on the lotus tips or to fly away.
But before he could finish speaking, his body was flung backward, crashing down within the training area.
