Volume 1, Chapter 140: Buying Garbage with Money?

Shen Zhubai entered the room and walked straight toward the bed.

He scanned the bed from end to end before pulling back the covers.

Suddenly, a look of joy crossed his face as his eyes locked onto a single black strand of hair on the right side of the pillow.

He quickly donned a pair of disposable gloves, picked up the hair, and placed it into a transparent plastic bag.

"Who are you?"

From the moment Li Fei landed at the bottom of the pit to the moment he broke free from the binding force, at least two seconds had passed. By then, the Lightning Snow Leopard Beast, which had been chasing him closely, had already reached the edge of the pit.

Perhaps the rule was that as long as an animal was obedient, it was forbidden to mistreat or whip it, but if it became disobedient, then whipping was permitted?

He spoke with solemn conviction and earnest words, but the moment Hua Ni heard him, she knew he did not actually believe her claims about a "past life."

He thought of Xia Zhibai during the imperial examinations—how he had suddenly vanished, tormenting them until they were half-dead, only to reappear and shock everyone by being appointed the top scholar. Could it be that this time would be exactly the same as the last?

Su Ming performed the Cloud Swallowing Technique, causing the koi's body to rapidly collapse as a surge of pure spiritual energy flowed into him.

Hua Ni leaned against the car, rubbed her temples, and after casting a glance at the two of them, left without a word.

But Xia Zhibai spoke with such righteous confidence that, in their eyes, it was merely jealousy of the South's prosperity and a desire to get a slice of the pie. All this talk of institutionalization and formalization was nothing but nonsense; they believed it impossible for there to be any official in this world who did not reach out to demand bribes and kickbacks.

Feng Yuetong was still fast asleep. Her clothes had been changed, her injuries were no longer visible, and her complexion looked as rosy as an apple.

"Officer Zhao?!" This time, it was Wang Siming who widened his eyes, taking a moment to look the man in front of him up and down.

Setting aside the question of how skilled Feng Yuetong's medical arts really were, even if she could truly reattach the limb, what about the severed leg itself?

Although this master of divination practiced a different school of metaphysics than his own, all metaphysical cultivation shared the same roots, and the foundational practices were much the same.

Du Yuniang pointed furiously at Chi Yingchi and said, "Don't you dare call me 'Yu Niang' again! Are we that close? Get out! Both of you, get out! Get out of the Du household." Du Yuniang was so angry she lost her composure. The slap mark on her face throbbed faintly, but it was what Lady Wang had said that truly sent her into a rage.

"Many thanks, two Immortals." Cheng Han was filled with gratitude, nearly prostrating himself on the ground. In the cultivation world, the Dragon Clan held a very high status, and Cheng Han considered himself lucky to have curried favor with them.

Grandmother did not know that, back then, Ling'er had fallen for a disciple in the mountain temple named Qiu Ye.

Yang Zheng had someone lead the donkey cart to the back courtyard of the escort agency, hitched a horse-drawn carriage, and took Madam Qi and Madam Guo to the county town.

If it had been the old Baker, he would have been scared out of his wits, but now, he found that he wasn't afraid at all; instead, he couldn't help but nod his head to the rhythm.

As he spoke, the inkstone had already been removed from its sandalwood box by Wen Shuo and placed upon the unfolded velvet cloth nearby.

Petra felt somewhat bewildered. There were so many people on the wall waiting for the results, yet you chose to play hide-and-seek?

In the anime, it was because they realized something was wrong too late, and the drawbridge couldn't be fully retracted in time. As a result, the Fusang City train rammed into it, causing several carriages to fly into the city, which led to the rapid spread of the Kabane.

Chen Mingxiang thought that his logic was flawed; even if he obtained the unit designation, with his abilities, what scale of an army could he possibly build?

"It is not yours! Yet it was discovered in your palace!" Xiao Fengsu waved his hand, signaling the eunuch to bring over the blackened statue.

She held back the last few words just in time, leaving them unsaid. This way, her meaning was clear without being explicit, sparing her from sounding vulgar.
