Volume 1, Chapter 21: The Dream Lover

“Lu Jinye, no matter what happens between us, my uncle was very kind to me once. I must go.”

Lu Jinye barely took two drags from his cigarette before the wind had reduced it to only a third.

This middle-aged man launched a soul attack, fully expecting to render Natei an idiot or at least leave him mentally wounded. Yet, to his astonishment, Natei looked at him with a smile, as if nothing had happened.

In his final moments, Yuhengzi heard those words, his eyes filled with terror. He knew he was being avenged by the True Immortal Long Cang. Had he known this, he would never have dared harm the Dongqi ancestral grandfather and grandson. But now, it was too late for regrets.

“Si Qi, forget the past grievances. Now that you are with me, you must live like me—optimistic and proactive. Only then will life be truly flavorful!” Natei comforted him.

“Second Brother…” Bai Mozi’s eyes were filled with despair. He felt he had failed Tang Tang and everyone else, unable to protect Bai Shaozi properly.

In truth, dealing with Mu Feng earlier didn’t require so much effort. How could such a move threaten her? The power difference was several levels; the fiery lotus couldn’t even touch her. But with so many spectators, how could she spoil their enjoyment?

Ouyang Yixian had many thoughts, but it was precisely because of this that he felt even more deeply the terror of Wei Zijie.

Yet, no matter what, it was a good thing. It rekindled a glimmer of hope in Kang Gao’s nearly desolate heart.

As for why Zhuang Qingqing suddenly fell silent, it was because she noticed something unusual: her mother had kindly brought her contraceptive pills at noon.

After who knows how long, Ye Fantian’s body erupted with boundless light.

At the last moment, the black-clad youth finally ceased his attack, exhaling slowly. He raised his hand, and the lid of the cauldron floated up. Then, a sleek, elegant black sword flew out from the cauldron, humming excitedly in the air.

Hong Jiang, stationed at the Command Mansion, where Wang Zhenyu, Yang Wangu, Xu Yuanquan, Wan Yaohuang, Liu Xing, Zhou Lan, He Jian, and Ma Xicheng were holding a military seminar.

So, should I ask if she’s doing well? Ji Kai immediately dismissed the thought. If he asked that question, he might as well finish himself off first.

Although the allied forces suffered heavy losses in this battle, the dark camp did not fare well either. The cannon fodder losses were inconsequential, but the Death Knights and Necromancer Wizards were the backbone of the undead army. Losing them in large numbers made rebuilding very difficult.

At that moment, an archer in the opposing team activated an unknown skill, similar to the thief’s dash, instantly boosting speed by nearly double for a short time.

Aslan had originally planned to come to Lux early today because an official was coming to apply, and Lux and the others didn’t know. He wanted to alert them sooner. Aslan hurriedly arrived, found the door unlocked, and without knocking, pushed it open.

Still puzzled, Ji Kai finally reached the palace. Familiar with the route, he was about to enter when he suddenly realized he shouldn’t act arrogantly yet. So, he swiftly turned and struck a nearby guard, intending to be polite enough to let them report his arrival.

Having obtained the intelligence he wanted, I began to prepare for the online session. I gathered as many supplies and potions as possible, arranged the wedding gown and formal wear, and, together with my team, embarked on the journey to explore the new dungeon.
