Volume 1, Chapter 64: Fine Salt

Hearing this, Ruan Ning immediately called the security office, instructing them to contact the fire department and rush to the rooftop to stop it immediately.

Never say treating humans is just like treating animals. There are fundamental differences in the physiological structures of humans and animals; how could medications and treatment methods possibly be the same?

Of course, for the Zhao family to become one of the top ten great clans of Tianjing City, they naturally possessed a grandmaster-level supreme martial expert of the first tier sitting in judgment over the clan.

On the surface, my cultivation was currently only at the Profound King realm, which naturally could not withstand such an overwhelming aura. I had no choice but to summon my flying sword and retreat frantically to a distance of a thousand meters, hovering in mid-air.

"Madam Pei, don't forget, before you married President Pei, weren't you also a parasite of capital?" Ruan Ning refused to let her walk all over her.

Meng Xiangtong desperately denied it to the Xiao family, for after all, the Xiao family was the only straw she could grasp onto for survival at this moment.

Finally, when the villagers gathered outside Old Man Lin's courtyard let out long sighs and dispersed with heavy footsteps, Old Man Lin also limped back into the house on his injured leg to rest.

To prevent his mother from suddenly attacking again and hurting Zhuo Xiaoyi, who was examining her, Yu Chengfeng helplessly picked up a nearby rope and tied her up.

Chu Nanxu coughed a few times from the choking dust, raised her hand to forcefully brush away the grime in front of her, strode up to the couch, and with all her might lifted a layer of wooden boards, pulling out a mottled, lacquered wooden box from within.

With all these resources combined, let alone completing the eleventh evolution of the physical body, even completing the twelfth or thirteenth evolution might not be entirely impossible.

In the blink of an eye, she arrived in a strange place. There was no sunlight here, yet it was as bright as day. Across the boundless land, there were no plants whatsoever, nor were there any pale, living creatures to be seen.

At noon, all eight roommates gathered together to have hot pot. Afterward, they accompanied her to check the entrances of various classrooms, noting down the exam times, subjects, and specific requirements. Having memorized everything in her mind, and since they all had classes in the afternoon, she bid them farewell and headed to the vegetable market.

Xie Shichen smiled. He knew she must have something to say to him, and in truth, he had things he wanted to say to her as well. He wanted to tell her that it did not matter if she did not want to fall in love or get married right now; he was willing to accompany her and wait for her.

"Brother, I confirmed it personally. Could it be false?" Xi Weilin, on the other side of the communicator, rolled his eyes at his eldest brother and said.

The age gap caused them to have significant differences in preferences and behaviors, yet he would do his utmost to accommodate her.

With that, Ye Lanchao turned and left without the slightest hesitation, leaving the members of the Ye family gnashing their teeth with helpless expressions.

"You think too prettily. Even after breaking up, you're still dreaming of such things. If you want to get lost, then get lost. There's no money," Zhang Changshun said, crossing his arms and curling his lips as he looked at her.

Only this time, he was sent flying by a swift palm strike from Yan Jin, crashing heavily into the pile of straw behind him, where he passed out straight away. A terrifying, large bump swelled up on his fair forehead at a visible rate.

Oulan did not resist, spreading her arms obediently to let the men in black search her. Although humiliating, she had to endure it for the sake of Zhan Lingtuo.

However, upon learning these facts, his first reaction was not wild joy, but rather a sense of worry.

"When I went back this time, I found that the cold poison within his body had reached its absolute limit. I'm afraid that he..." Zi Que struggled to weigh her words, only to find that she could not come up with a suitable term.

Without a single thought, he replied, "I can give you whatever you want. This is what I owe you and your family." If she wanted his life, perhaps he would give it to her immediately. What a ridiculous man he was—having once abandoned his beloved for money, who could say if forcing him to abandon his money now might be akin to taking his life?

Although unicorns could not compare to ancient divine beasts like the phoenix, they were already high-grade mount beasts. Those capable of possessing them were generally nobles and high-ranking generals within the military.

Diao Manrong was neither willing to abandon the magic pearl nor willing to beg Xue Meng to pull her up, leaving her caught in a dilemma between the two choices.

Qin Yue simply was unwilling to offer too much explanation, perhaps because he believed that at the time he truly had suspected Su Xia, leaving nothing to explain. Or perhaps because he believed that between Su Xia and himself, such superfluous explanations were no longer necessary.

Thus, after consulting with Xiao Moran, Su Jinyan decided to play along with the ruse. However, she never expected that a single moment of carelessness would result in her being injured and poisoned, only to be subsequently rescued by Su Xia.

Along the entire way, Ye Zhiyuan did not utter a word, yet the oppressive, low-pressure atmosphere he exuded was immensely heavy. His complexion was extremely grim, and his eyes were as deep as unmelting ink, masking any discernible expression. Zhou Xuan cowered in his seat, opened his mouth several times, but ultimately rubbed his hands together and still said nothing.

Those arriving this time included not only Cui Hong, but also his paternal cousin, Cui Junsu, the father of Cui Yuan. Aside from these two, the Cui clan had also dispatched four learned and renowned scholars of the Cui family, along with four senior stewards of the clan.

"Understood." Langbao flicked his ears, a pale blue light emanating from his brow that refracted into Xue Meng's forehead. Moments later, a comforting and melodious voice echoed within Xue Meng's mind.

With a slip of her hand, the wine bottle slid not far away, and a jade pendant slipped out from her sleeve. Baili Yuxin retrieved the jade pendant, staring at the exquisite piece with lingering affection—it was a token of love given to him by Shiyu. This jade pendant bore far too much of their sweetness, and those beautiful memories caused his heart to tremble at this very moment.

Dongfang Ningyu knew what the Empress Dowager wanted to speak with her about; it was undoubtedly nothing more than telling her to stop entangling herself with Qi Yezhe and similar remarks.

Fu Jinju parted her lips, utterly unable to believe that such a curse wishing someone childless descendants could come from her father's mouth. She could only conclude that this Mr. Lian and her own father shared a train of thought that no ordinary mortal could possibly comprehend.

Lost in deep thought, Feng Qingcang meticulously pondered the events that had transpired earlier. Before he could sort out his thoughts, his train of thought was abruptly interrupted.
