Chapter 27: Their Relationship Is Far from Simple

Jin Shixun had initially intended to see what evidence Jin Siqi could produce, but after waiting for a long time, she remained silent, offering only hesitant and evasive murmurs.

"Alright, Siqi, you are simply overthinking this. Why don't you head back and get some rest?"

"Your brother will naturally handle it." Jin Shixun still had work to attend to, and at this moment, he truly could not...

In the next instant, the pure white, majestic figure plunged decisively into the forest, continuing to lead the tracking beasts forward, though their search remained fruitless.

With the wedding procession gone, the only thing left to do was wait—wait for the party to return with the bride.

Thus, it took them a full half-month to reach the foot of the ancient mountain range where the Heavenly Firmament Palace was situated.

"Because the police initially stated that you refused to come forward to assist with the investigation, we, as parents grieving the loss of our child, remained convinced that our son must have had a chance at survival, and that others simply failed to grasp that hope."

Old Mel was stubborn and unyielding; he might not necessarily accept the protagonist's protection. Even though the other party trusted him unconditionally, it did not actually improve his standing within the military.

Although Quchi was fighting in his true form this time, he had combined it with his innate supernatural powers. His physical body surged across a range of six hundred and ten thousand miles to collide with Yang Qing's golden bell, causing the artifact to be instantly sent reeling back by the counter-shock. The disparity and the shift in momentum were far too obvious; the power of her golden bell simply could not withstand him.

Yuanye Ai replied: "Wow, I think that once he finds out, he will surely be grateful to Qifeng-kun. Why not let him know?"

As for Bai Li, having just sacrificed one of his lives, he finally arrived at the boundary gate at the very rear. Without a moment's hesitation, he plunged headlong into the gate to enter the next immortal island.

It was not the first time Huo Yunting had acted so coquettishly toward Bai Yu. Whenever she became annoyed after being pinned down and kissed by him, he would soften his tone and plead, "Don't be angry, okay? Please? Won't you?" Whenever he acted like this, seeing a man as tough as steel begging her in such a way, the last of her anger would inevitably melt away.

In truth, the only one among them to inherit the direct-line surname "Huntian" was Huntian Qiaoxiang, while the other two children bore the collateral branch surname "Hun."

As the music faded, Bai Qi emerged accompanied by two bridesmaids, a shy expression on her face as she gazed with deep affection toward the other side of the wedding altar. However, the groom, Chen Tianyi, was nowhere to be seen.

"I think you should head back, or perhaps you could join us for some leveling," Crazy Stone suggested after a moment of thought.

Tang Ya frowned, remaining silent, while Xia Dongmei, equally confused by Youyou's behavior, could only watch her with a bewildered expression.

He took hold of Gong Qianzhu's hand and gave his fish tail a powerful flick, launching his body into the air. By the time he landed, the entire tail had transformed into two long legs, his toes resting on the sharp gravel as if he felt no pain at all.

I no longer knew what to feel; I was so nervous that I couldn't utter a single word, and my eyes had nowhere to look.

Even as the mortal realm suffered from endless disasters, droughts, and floods, and as the ancient portals of the primordial wilderness swung open, the Demon Lord emerged and demons descended upon the world, yet she went forth with such unswerving resolve.

"Besides, there's no point in being invited by others anyway. Those who are doing well show off, and those who aren't, brag. If things go poorly, they might even have the gall to ask you for a loan after all that boasting," Brother Chang continued.

As for the eight men in suits, Patch did not cast any destructive spells upon them; they merely collapsed to the ground, falling into a light slumber.

"You two go ahead and talk, I'm going to sleep. I thought you hadn't eaten, so I was waiting here for you. Since you've brought back a bottle of liquor, you must have already had your meal," the landlady said, sounding somewhat piqued.

The buildings on both sides of the road flashed by. During the drive, Jiang Ciyun made several phone calls and finally caught onto Yan Jin's trail.
