Chapter 135: Their Master

He Maoquan was the name of the deceased.

Yun Shuang raised an eyebrow slightly and said, “The deceased shares the surname He with Master He. Could they be related?”

“Related, my ass!”

He Wenjun made no attempt to conceal the disgust on his face. With a cold laugh, he said, “He was merely a servant of our family. He had followed my father since childhood and simply took our surname after him. If it weren’t for the fact that he was considered one of the old retainers of the He family, I…”

The first lesson Qingwu ever attended at the School of Yin-Yang left a profound impression on her. In fact, that lesson had an enormous influence on her, and her actions in the years that followed were inextricably linked to it.

Although Zhang Liang did not say who their common enemy was, the Mohists, Quicksand, and everyone else present all knew perfectly well that he meant the Great Qin Empire.

To prevent any unforeseen complications, Huangfu Wanli sent Duan Qingyan and Huangfu Yin’er through the teleportation array at a Huangfu family estate that very day, sending them south to the neighboring region.

In truth, it was not only Chen Weijun. Sun Hou, Li Shuai, and Qin Sheng, who were standing nearby, also wiped away cold sweat. Just moments ago, hadn’t every one of them been thinking about putting down the sudden-appearing zombie with a single shot?

Thus, although Second Brother Li did not particularly like his younger cousin Li Xiazhi, when he heard that Li Xiazhi had been beaten into critical condition at a restaurant, he immediately sent someone to the hospital to find out what had happened. At the same time, he called in favors and arrogantly declared that he would never let the matter go.

The cultivators were discussing among themselves. All of them were at the peak of the Origin-Breaking Realm, a level that was commonplace in the Annihilation Arena and nothing out of the ordinary.

Zatanna’s eyes brimmed with tears. She valued this relationship deeply, and believed Clark was her other half. She had never imagined that her other half would go mad and charge straight into the sun. Hadn’t he said he would merely take a stroll near the sun’s surface? How had things ended up like this?

Duan Qingyan was cheerfully watching her belongings continue to rise in value, silently calculating the proceeds. After deducting the ten-percent handling fee, there would still be two hundred and seventy thousand left.

Fortunately, there was no mirror here. If Duan Qingyan saw herself wrapped in blue-green flames, she would certainly think she looked like one enormous ball of ghost fire.

The public response from Youdao Media was that several programs currently in its hands had already signed cooperation agreements with a certain television station. If there were any new programs in the future, cooperation could be considered.

If Ye You were asked to find a reliable method, he would still hope to combine ancient medical techniques with chemotherapy from internal medicine to suppress this patient’s stomach cancer and delay the arrival of death.

If she were not utterly determined to stay with that man, if she were not single-mindedly bent on protecting him from injustice, how could this fool, who had muddled through twenty-three years as a lazy salted fish, have swallowed her anger, exhausted herself, and resorted to honeyed words and clever deception?

Lin Qian barely needed to think. Forget twenty billion—even if saving Ye Ling required a hundred billion, so what? He could raise that much himself.

Nor did he possess the system’s ability to return to the past and achieve the effect of teleportation by shifting his position during a fight.

However, the directing team had no intention of letting her ask any more questions. An assistant came over at once and escorted Li Ying out.

This inevitably made the martial arts master leading the group wonder which parts of what Lin Qing’er had said were true and which were false.

Ma Jun had always cared greatly about his dignity. His earlier death had occurred in front of Feifei, making him somewhat frantic—perhaps even enraged from humiliation.

It had to be said that the Grand Elder’s proposal was entirely reasonable. The other three elders immediately agreed to it.

Ma Shuo followed behind Gu Chi and noticed that he kept glancing at his watch, with a suspicious upward curl at the corners of his mouth.

More importantly, their young master knew how to bide his time. Usually, he kept a low profile and revealed nothing. But once he erupted, he was utterly terrifying.

Xiang Ye ended the call and lowered his head to look at the chain. A massive block of ice had formed around its end, sealing the column-like tongue inside.
