Chapter 88: The Peninsula Basks in Sunlight

Gaeta was a beautiful city.

Yet with Leo’s army having claimed the final victory, the city had been reduced to Leo’s servant. The whole place was at his beck and call, and his soldiers had run wild there for days.

The only part of the city that might still have remained intact was the residence where Leo himself stayed.

Inside that mansion, lights blazed brightly. Though it was only the modest house of a Greek merchant, in the midst of so many people coming and going, it still stood out.

As it became clear that Liu Yi’s aura was growing ever weaker, Murong Qianqian found herself helpless. This was the kind of aftereffect that came from Liu Yi’s own cultivation, something no divine medicine could cure. Unless the legendary immortality pill could be found, allowing Liu Yi to restore himself to peak condition and suppress the damage, there was no guarantee of success.

The sun slowly sank, and the sky was dyed a beautiful orange-yellow. Just as Ye Mo was wondering whether she was dreaming, the touch in her hand jolted her awake.

At last, I can sleep peacefully for once. During this time, I have been constantly frightened. When I saw other divine beasts or demon clans with high spiritual power, once they left their master, the bond they should have would vanish without a trace. Even more terrifying, they would lose the abilities they ought to have possessed. Fortunately, I was rather lucky.

By the order of Noble Consort Rou, the servant naturally could not swagger about using her name. Fearing that this man might go about spreading nonsense outside, he simply invoked the name of the Prince of Peerless instead. He would surely not dare to resist.

“No, my father happened to hear someone sing it once!” She could not say that the lyrics had been composed by Lin Tai. In order not to reveal her identity, she lied to Yulan.

Dao Kuan, at this moment seated upon Long Hun’s back, was likewise quite at ease. In his own words, a man as precious as he was, how could he possibly walk by himself? The road would not be able to bear it.

The spectators naturally wanted to see how the two sides would fight over this sword until both were ruined, so they all cheered in agreement, even urging them to start at once.

Miaokedi clenched her fists. After watching the police car carry her parents away, she vanished.

Hong Zhenying and Zhou Yinshuang were satisfied with a kiss that had waited twenty-three years, yet suddenly their hearts were seized by panic.

A finger circling at the temple made the meaning all too clear; how could Yun Moyu fail to understand?

To everyone’s surprise, Qin Yang did not choose any other superstar, but instead selected Paul George.

Did even a cold war need a declaration of war? And would they need to find a referee as well, so someone could announce who had won and who had lost?

The people on the ground looked utterly miserable at this moment. Their entire right leg and the area around the abdomen had disappeared without a trace, and from that face streaked with blood, An Zhe dimly recognized who it was.

The old grandmother was a chatterbox too, and the moment she looked at Li Yun and Liu Yanli, her expression turned sly and lewd.

“Darling! That carriage... is there something wrong with it?” Lady Derrick asked in great confusion.

Master Shiye remained as tranquil as ever, with a faint smile blooming like a flower, as though this disaster of a green hat were merely some very ordinary matter.

“Good. At least my face is still my face.” Looking into the mirror, Val saw no blue scales upon his face; it was still the same as before, only now marked by strange black patterns. Even the teeth in his mouth were no longer flat as they had once been, but had become sharp fangs.

Indeed, there had been several times when, while calling or texting Ai Hua, he had wanted to ask Buro Ai Hua out to play, yet he never knew how to begin.

This was not because he had to keep hold of the contact information himself; rather, only he could speak to the other side through the phone. If anyone else tried, all they would get was meaningless static.

If it had been anyone else, Red Sparrow would never have dared say such a thing, but facing Zheng Peng, Red Sparrow could speak without the slightest pressure.

He took a very long time to recover, then drew a few deep breaths and, with heavy steps, left the door of Gu Wenyu’s room.
