Chapter 42: Lou Huainan Confesses to Tang Yu

Her heart raced. The words she wanted to say hovered on the edge of her lips, yet Tang Yu couldn’t bring herself to speak them, blaming the crowd around them for her silence.

“Aren’t we going to eat? Let’s go.”

Under the scorching sun, Tang Yu led the way toward her car, though she felt her face burning even more.

Xizhou Lou had noticed her hesitation just moments before. He quickened his pace, reaching out to pull her toward his car.

“Aren’t you getting out of the car to come back here? I’ll walk you.”

Meanwhile, at Mu Bingfeng, where the disciples had quieted with the night’s fall, many suddenly stirred awake. In an instant, the entire mountain was ablaze with lights, countless figures darting about.

The ancient star pupil of Shouyang Star dilated violently. A cursed ancient star? The life ancient star he belonged to was cursed. Not only was the ancient progenitor of Shouyang Star shocked, but both Emperor Ku and Amitabha were astounded as well. The ninth universe’s richest source of spiritual energy was a cursed ancient star—this overturned everyone’s understanding.

Yet, Lei Chen felt no remorse. As the saying went, when debts pile up, lice no longer itch. Having already offended the Chen family, offending the Song family—who were famously close to the Chens—was no great matter. Even without today’s incident, the Song family might one day ally with the Chens against him.

Gong Qianzhu dismounted from her fiery bird. Though the spirit peak was not large, finding a jade stone was no easy task. Fortunately, the firebird was surprisingly perceptive. Seemingly understanding her desire for the Soul-Returning Jade, it circled the peak once before returning, clutching a translucent emerald jade in its beak and flying to her side.

The man pinned down on the spot was dumbfounded. He had seen many clan members, but never anyone like this—more precisely, never anyone so utterly foolish!

Mu Jinxi felt a flicker of joy as Meng Qi followed closely beside her. Realizing she still did not know his name, she finally spoke up.

This was Bit Star, the most beautiful planet in the universe. From afar, one could see the palace that resembled the stairway to paradise. On the left side of this palace stood a solitary orange palace, where a teenage boy dressed in silver with blue hair slowly entered.

It seemed this matter needed to be discussed with her sister Song Yuhan. With her sister’s plentiful experience in fickleness and cunning, she might indeed be able to offer some worthwhile advice.

Arriving at Xu Feihong’s office, he pulled out blueprints of the entire building. Now, he intended to investigate methodically to uncover the truth.

Tang Lin was taken aback, staring at Xia Qian in disbelief. She never expected Xia Qian to say such things.

After saying this, Hu Yang skillfully disassembled the handgun into parts and casually tossed them onto the ground.

Su Ran remained silent. The problem stemmed from within herself; she could not overcome the wound in her heart and found it difficult to speak aloud.

“If you were the uncle, what would you do?” He Taiyuan had sensed Jiang Lingxian secretly watching him kill Deng Gaoyang upstairs, so there was nothing left unsaid.

Then, he raised his head and looked toward the sky, where the imposing figure of Nezha, standing one zhang and six chi tall, likewise let out a mighty roar.

Gu Yanan received a call: a diarrhea outbreak had occurred at a kindergarten on Niushan Island outside the eastern district of Lanhai City. Local disease control personnel had already taken samples, which were en route to the city’s CDC laboratory.

Hearing Hu Yang’s words, Han Yingying felt a warm current flow through her heart. Those words surpassed all the sweet nothings in the world.

Upon hearing this, Tai Luan, a trusted general under Deng Jiugong, the commander of the Three Mountain Passes of Dashang, instantly flared with fury.

Hu Yang raised his hand to open the door and see Han Yingying off, but she had already started the car and driven away.

Dosing someone was a tactic even the old hands had used, yet all still felt it was utterly despicable and shameless.

Their Dongyuan State was ruthless on the streets, but compared to this man, they were nothing at all. Now they dared neither move forward nor retreat, fearing Ye Wudao might shoot them down with a single bullet.
