Chapter 72: Did You Kill Someone?

Jiang Juyue’s emotions broke down completely, her voice hoarse from screaming until it was almost gone.
“What’s wrong, Shen Jin? Haven’t I treated you well enough? Why do you still think of Lu Qingqing?”
Shen Jin’s gaze was sharp and cold as he looked at the woman before him.
“Don’t bother making excuses,” Shen Jin replied with indifference. “Even though I don’t…”
“Besides, you might not have noticed, but a lot has happened recently in the capital. It’s too complicated to explain everything.”
“He’s the one who stood in my way in Hainan and kept me from getting the Spirit Guardian Stone—Ye Fei!” My grandson pointed at Ye Fei and declared fiercely.
“You’re Brother Tianhao—you really are the iron-blooded soul of my brother Tianhao’s resistance!” Immortal Zixuan’s tears fell as she lifted her head to look at him, her voice resolute.
The others murmured among themselves, and their looks of admiration for their leader only grew.
In the past two days, I’ve asked around about a few things. They say that the second lady of the Wen family has barely shown herself outside in the last couple of years.
“I’ve realized that I’ve fallen in love with giant lobsters all over again.” The two of them all but drooled their way back to the Eastern Residence, and at dinner, their ravenous appetites nearly drew the entire household out to watch.
Liu Yun and Feng Han, seeing even the always-powerful Emperor Han suffer such a bitter defeat, knew their own cultivation was about the same as his, so they could only wait quietly at the side for their chance.
“Why is that?” Ye San and Huai Yu, seeing Tang Shishi’s beaming smile, thought she had agreed, but to their surprise, Tang Shishi refused.
Meanwhile, Ye Yinglan couldn’t help but wipe away her tears as she recounted the events of the past two days.
Lu Yucheng, Yin Liusu, and their whole family went home early, probably to stay overnight at a hotel in town—there was no way they could make it back to Anqing City in one night.
Since Qi Weiwei left, she hadn’t come back, and Mi Zixuan and the others dispersed after a brief meal. The next day, everything resumed as usual—some went to class, others to their internships at the hospital, and Peking Medical University remained its eternally unchanged self.
The hesitation, complexity, and tangled confusion on Shang Ruan’s face did not escape Shen Qinliang’s notice; he took in every expression clearly, seeing all her uncertainty and helplessness.
Batu was delighted to see my utterly bewildered expression and laughed, “Now do you believe I’m a chemist? Let me tell you, one of my inventions almost won a Nobel Prize.”
Li Zedao felt a slight surge of emotion. Words like “thank you” might seem cheap to you, but to the foundation, they are the best reward.
Li Zedao’s expression turned stern; he hated it when people gave him the finger. Instantly, he formed a knife with his palm and struck hard at Ito Haowu’s wrist.
Yin Lin strode in, and to Luo Xue, it was like a flood or a savage beast had descended. She hadn’t even gotten a good look at his face before he hoisted her onto his shoulder, leaving her dizzy and confused, and tossed her straight onto the back seat of the car.
The unwelcome tone and the faint trace of disgust in his eyes—Yin Liusu could feel it even from far away.
Senior Brother truly lived up to his reputation as a restaurant owner—the supplies in his car were incredibly complete: bread, fruit, bottled water, instant noodles—everything you could need. Zhang Fan suspected the car was mostly used to haul goods.
But now things were different. The opponent wasn’t just John, but an entire professional team. I really can’t guarantee we’ll beat them.
All these vegetables were shrouded in cool air. Who knows how many days ago they’d been picked, yet they still looked vibrantly green and red.
There were also Nascent Soul cultivators like Ancestor Tu Yu, Zhuang Wujian, Xun Honghao of the Hidden Dragon Alliance, and Yi Zhixing.
“The Third Elder says his only ambition is to be the lord and grand elder of Star Moon City—he doesn’t care about anything else.”
