Chapter 169 I Am Your Strongest Backup

As these words were spoken, Shen Guodong nearby shook his head and said, "It's nowhere near as simple as you think."

"It's not that I don't want to come and help, but the problem is they've all been keeping their eyes fixed on Liu Yuexian. Didn't you see? They've been surrounding her the whole time, and I haven't even had a chance to get a word in."

"I just wanted to step in and answer a few simple questions, but they wouldn't pay any attention to me either. There was nothing I could do."

Perhaps because Liu Yuexian was relatively young, coupled with her fiery, pepper-like personality that genuinely appealed to this group of people, whenever they wanted to buy something, they would go straight to her, leaving her overwhelmed and too busy to cope, while Shen Guodong...

If Dayi chose to cut all ties with her and never cross paths again, to put it nicely, it would be a state of mutual peace, and she wouldn't even think about causing him any trouble.

At the same time, he also yearned for a pure romance, and Lan Qianqian was the one he believed would soon bring him that pure romance.

Clearly, Sister Hong had not finished speaking, but Ling Shuang knew she wouldn't be able to pry anything more out of her.

Without unnecessary words or formal pleasantries, the moment Luo Jinghong's voice trailed off, Bai Yueling raised her hand and struck toward her.

"Chu Yuxu? Fifteen years old, late stage of the fifth layer of Condensing Origin, capable of killing across realms. Interesting, truly interesting." Long Chuanqi's fingers tapped rhythmically against the table, producing a steady clatter.

"This path seems to belong to our world; you shouldn't be appearing here," Li Yanxing said calmly.

The greenskins surrounded the human team attempting to retake the academy district. Watching those warriors fall, Bahram felt as though his heart was being torn apart.

After all, the name list provided by the Patriarch belonged to his own pill-boy, so he naturally should have known what extraordinary traits the boy possessed.

Unlike Wang Shuyuan, Wang Yaozu had done his homework. Although Shen Tingjun had just graduated, her abilities were real.

The first to react was Chen Tian, who had been mentally prepared all along. Within three breaths of that sound appearing, he decisively whipped his head around, transforming into a streak of light as he prepared to flee far away.

Tong Muyuan wore a pristine, snow-white wedding dress with exquisite makeup, her bright eyes and radiant smile making her even more dazzling than the warm sun above.

Guan Xu was not annoyed either. Over the past few years, he had come to understand a simple truth: life isn't all that long, and love shouldn't just be demonstrated—it must be spoken aloud.

"Mother Wang." Amidst the clamor, a peculiar and clear voice suddenly cut through the crowd and reached Mother Wang's ears. Her body trembled, and she immediately scanned her surroundings. Upon spotting her target, she instantly turned to run back, only to be intercepted by someone.

When the second portrait was unfurled before the emperor, the two paintings were placed side by side for comparison, making the differences instantly obvious. Looking then toward Consort Shu sitting below the throne, the truth became clear at a single glance.

Just then, the eldest son's cell phone rang. He answered the call, and his expression turned instantly grim.

"Fine, let's sit down and talk!" Brother Long finally spoke up. Prompted by what Ji Feng and Yang Ke had just said, and compounded by the intimidating aura Ji Feng had just projected, he genuinely did not dare to shout or roar at Ji Feng anymore.

"Pardon me, without Lord Orochimaru's insignia, no one is allowed to enter the village!" The man's voice was hoarse, yet exceptionally resolute.

Zhuge Ning also stood to one side with a joyful expression. It seemed the most correct decision she had ever made in her life was taking the initiative to consummate her relationship with Zhang Fan. As she recalled those wild, passionate moments with him, a blush crept across her cheeks.

The Nine Heavens and Ten Lands comprised nineteen realms—the Ten Lands below and the Nine Heavens above. It was said that the Creator resided in the Ninth Heaven, and their destination was the Fifth Heaven.

However, the lingering obsession deep within her heart kept reminding her of how humiliatingly she had lost.

Wang Ke'er let out a cold snort and turned to face Wang Qingshan before her, her heart filled with intense anger at that moment.

If the Zhu family showed sincerity, they would naturally know what to do. If not, Zhang Hao would no longer need to bear any burden of conscience; as Huang Yu had said, Old Zhu was, after all, a veteran worthy of respect.

Seeing that Feng Xiaolin and the others were safe and sound, several old monsters of the empire let out long sighs of relief. These youths were their lifeblood; if any mishap had befalllen them, these old men probably would have gone berserk, charged into the Thunder Mountain Range, and launched a bloody massacre.
