Volume 1, Chapter 44: Asking her not to leave is something I cannot bring myself to do.

"Does Xiao Qian really not love you?" Jiang Meng turned her head, gazing at the impeccably handsome young face before her.

Li Zhinan had inherited his father's striking good looks and had been praised for it since childhood. Jiang Meng believed that a son with such high aesthetic appeal, paired with his exceptional business acumen, couldn't possibly fail to win Cheng Qian's affection.

Yet, in reality, no matter how handsome a face might be, it was no match for the aloof and emotionally repressed personality that heaven had bestowed upon him.

"You really are useless." Jiang Meng let out a heavy sigh.

Li Zhinan: "..."

Jiang Meng looked at him sternly. "Think of a way. Xiao Qian is a good woman; she is worth cherishing."

"Mom, stop joking. You want me to beg a woman not to leave..."

Furthermore, this formation was incredibly sturdy. For an ordinary martial artist, even one at the Martial Venerable level, it was simply impossible to break through with brute force without the special incantation.

However, after waiting for a long while, he was surprised to find that Xu Shu was doing nothing but staring at him without blinking, as if something were growing on his face.

The demon beast, whose throat had been pierced by Lin Yi's strike, clearly had not expected Lin Yi's movements to be so sharp. Struck, the demon beast could not even feel the pain radiating from its eyes; its two front claws rested on Lin Yi's shoulders before it collapsed instantly.

For the time that followed, I sat in the waiting area of the front lobby, quietly watching the people constantly coming and going from the elevators. My long-taut nerves finally relaxed; I felt I had been a bit too tense.

Toppling Cao Cao—how easy is that to say? Only those who are sufficiently intelligent, ruthless, and cunning can gain a foothold and take root beside Cao Cao, then perform an unexpected feat to turn the tide.

Mrs. Mu stared fixedly at Mu Jinchen. In such a tense atmosphere, even Mu Chengjun and Ling Shiyin held their breath.

Li Ru was expressionless, neither happy nor sad; his face looked as if he were wearing a mask, though in reality, his face had been ruined, making it much the same as wearing a mask.

Upon hearing this, Yu Ziyao’s eyes looked at the medicine in her hand as if it were a treasure. The mere thought that it would be used against Feng Qingyu made her want to laugh with joy.

Ling Shiyin scrolled through her phone. Last time, she had only taken Rui Rui home for a short while, and Jiang Yuanshou had arrived immediately. But this time, had he abandoned even his own son?

The main structure of the Dark Night Bar was entirely European in style, and the building was only three stories high. For Wang Nanbei, who considered climbing walls a piece of cake, this was certainly no challenge. The difficulty lay in how to bypass the surveillance without attracting attention and enter the bar.

Brother Xu nodded, then slowly turned the car around, pretending as if nothing had happened, and drove past.

Xing Fei felt a chill in his heart and instinctively used teleportation to dodge to the side. At the same time, two beams of light, as tangible as substance, shot from his eyes, finally allowing him to see what the hulking beast attacking him was.

Once Ruo Qiu spoke these words, everyone’s expression changed. Misusing forbidden arts was not something to be taken lightly.

"I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry. Let's go to the repair shop first; I will cover all the repair costs." The owner of the minivan was a woman in her twenties, who looked quite delicate. She had long, jet-black hair and bright eyes, and a faint scent of cream radiated from her.

Qiu Xin was covered in blood, her hair disheveled, and she was on the verge of death; her core essence was almost completely drained. As the noble young master of the Huayue Immortal Sect, when had she ever suffered such a devastating defeat? This was all for Ye Feng. Aside from Ye Feng, who else could drive the young master of the Huayue Immortal Sect to such desperate lengths?

At this moment, the person on the stretcher, Sanzi, did not answer; his face was twisted painfully, his eyes tightly shut, and layers of cold sweat continued to seep from his forehead.

"Haven't you always been by my side?" Leng Yan kissed her enticing red lips, sucking on them gently yet possessively.

Hei Luo was puzzled; he hovered steadily in the air, turning his head curiously. Now, as he continued to enter the Sea of Sacrificial Temples and destroy the guardians, he no longer felt the same fear of the place as he once had, though he remained somewhat wary.

Alan, who was not accustomed to the taste of Chinese food and could not find a Western restaurant to his liking, arrived at the new restaurant Raymond was about to open with a mix of doubt and expectation.

Yao Congshuang had never considered Ruan Ying a truly competitive rival from the very beginning. She was too young and too pretty; even though she had just finished filming Tang Hui's movie, that was not enough for Yao Congshuang to take her abilities seriously.

I remember in the original work, this thing could freeze the Calabash Brothers with ease. It really was not simple.

Han Lin looked at the "Player XXX has been killed" notifications popping up on his retina and couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, grateful that he had been a step too slow and hadn't been the first to squeeze to the city gate, only to be beaten to it by the other three groups.

Because just a few minutes ago, Ruan Ying had been browsing her optional tasks, and among them happened to be one regarding Cheng Yongbin.

This seal actually left an opening for a primordial spirit to enter from the outside, though, of course, those inside could not get out. Why leave this opening? Naturally, it was to monitor the soul of the Demon King back in the day.

"But what if there really is a ghost in that back mountain? People could die!" Fan Yan felt a flash of anger, thinking that Peng Long’s arrangement of the activity was far too reckless.

The man with the square face kept his brow furrowed, looking fierce. He nodded at everyone and then ignored them.

As a result, he saw Qin Jiu raise his hand, his long, slender, and attractive fingers touching the side of his neck to peel off the adhesive bandage Yang Shuhua had applied for him.

Gu Yi’er saw her nervous state and quickly helped her rest her hand on the tea table beside them, then turned her head and gave Ji Bailie a wink.

The master was truly a god-like figure. After taming the Hound Demon Beast, he had actually renamed it and was keeping it as a pet! Was this, this really the same Hound Demon Beast that used to strike fear into their hearts?
