Chapter 38: A Bold Declaration of Sovereignty

Jin Siqi was complaining to Jin Shixun, yet her tone carried a playful hint of coquetry.

"Alright, alright, do you think I don't know your spending habits? If Qinxin is going out with you, how can she not have any money on her?"

"I'll give you another supplementary card next time," Jin Shixun said, his patience for Jin Siqi remaining remarkably high.

...

In a flash, they moved with a speed that the Black Bear clan, otherwise known for their lumbering nature, should never have been capable of.

"Yes, I’m not sick, you’re the one who’s sick!" Gu Nianxi, flustered and agitated, shoved Qin Aotian’s restraining arm away with all her might and turned to dash toward her father’s room.

Zhishan glanced at Haitang, then at Young Master Yun, frowning slightly before finally settling down beside him.

"Ouyang Minghe, stop trying to butter me up! I’m warning you, don’t you dare set your sights on Nianxi, or I’ll beat you to death!" Qin Aotian warned with an icy glare.

Chu Haoxuan had no choice but to take a risk and keep her by his side, trusting that she wouldn't cause him any trouble.

He stopped there, leaving the rest to everyone’s boundless imagination.

...

As she spoke, she began stuffing gold rings, bracelets, and necklaces into a bag.

Amy was watching the battle from afar; she certainly couldn't miss such a scene, though for the sake of the child in her womb, she dared not get too close.

Even though Gu Yunxi coveted her husband and had been manipulated by others, she ultimately did not want any harm to befall her sister.

Hua Weiluo used the faint moonlight to carefully examine the courtyard, but after looking for a long time, she could not discern any hidden mechanisms.

Hua Duo'er and Fu Niu opened a supermarket near the Nanda University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, similar in scale to the one in Nan County, also called Duoduo Supermarket.

After much deliberation, King Ru cast aside his pride, returned with a beaming smile, and puffed out his chest.

The title of "peerless emperor" was a rather vague concept, but it was certain that none of these ten emperors had reached that level.

The bright spring scenery in the Bichun Palace was, in truth, a realm constructed by the mysterious fairy using her spiritual power.

Meanwhile, Li Xiaoyin was stunned. Wasn't it supposed to be three bolts of lightning? Why had it stopped?

Hatred gnawed at Mei Tongtong’s heart like a venomous snake. After a long while, a sharp, piercing pain brought her back to her senses. Instinctively, she touched her lips and felt fresh, red blood—she had bitten through them.

...

At present, the Nine Provinces Kingdom intends to import the Witch Lamp. Since this item originally belongs to Zhao Jun's patent, many people are currently in talks with him regarding a partnership.

Ji Ling’s expression changed. Everyone present was among the top security personnel of Tianqi, with the lowest rank being A, so they knew exactly how terrifying Snake Eye was.

According to the grandmother who adopted her, she opened a supermarket at the school gate to earn money to support both herself and her grandmother.

"I have already said what I needed to say. As for how you deal with it, that is your business. If you want to stay here, then by all means, continue; I must excuse myself." Hongjun gave a cold laugh and swept his sleeves as he departed.

Therefore, at this point, rushing to the battlefield held little meaning, a fact Liu Haibing understood clearly.

"Li Shaofan, do you not dare to face me in an honorable battle? Must you resort to such base and despicable tactics?" Patriarch Canglang stared coldly at Li Shaofan. Forced to abandon his offensive to channel his energy against the terrifying heat evaporating the ocean, his heart bled.

"How did you find out?" The Great Elder of the Dragon Clan stared at Li Shaofan in utter astonishment. This was a top-secret matter; he never expected such a young man to know about it.

"He’s dead, Uncle Chen is truly dead, he’s dead!" Tang Ze shouted in sheer terror, then scrambled blindly toward the door.
