Chapter 113: Xiao Lin is a Good Student

“You’ve cried your eyes out; now Zeng Wei and Chen Bing can finally have some peace. There’s no hurdle you can’t overcome. A man so unfaithful is not worth your tears—better to let him go. Now, stop crying.” Lin Ran reached out, wiping her tears with his thumb. “You should be grateful you saw his true nature early on. Be happy about that and look forward to finding a man far better than him.”

Lu Man shook her head wearily. “No more searching. I won’t look anymore. I’ll stay single. Love is a bitter drink—whoever drinks it suffers.”

But it caught sight of the giant panda beside Jin Kui and suddenly showed ecstatic delight, as if meeting a worthy adversary or a kindred spirit.

On one side, Du Qing was deeply aggrieved, and Du Qian was equally furious; meanwhile, Yin Junchao gradually fell silent.

This remark was the finishing touch, allowing the emperor to better perceive the Empress Dowager’s resolve to delegate authority and to understand her respect for him as the reigning emperor.

Returning to the Yin estate in a light and joyful mood, the Yin elders had already come back with Shuangshuang and Huanghuang.

The Crown Prince was speechless, holding back tears, but hearing Shuangshuang cry so painfully, even his strong mind faltered and he could no longer hold back.

Actually, Rong Wanxi wouldn’t pick it off herself. But looking at it, it seemed she only needed to remove the dirt and withered leaves from the ends. How hard could that be?

Having temporarily stalled Yin Jiuxuan’s advance, Xiao Yan quickly retreated. The White Tiger Spirit Seal appeared formidable but was only an early-stage imperial technique and posed no real threat to Yin Jiuxuan.

“No, if I let you go, Master will skin me alive.” Qing Yu stretched out her other hand, prying Shiyao’s hand from her own.

If troops were sent to attack Youzhou now, not only would Kebi’s forces fail to breach the defenses of Shanggu Commandery’s official army, but even if they did, they would be unable to face the fifty thousand troops under Qiang Qu’s command. Only after both sides suffered heavy losses could an offensive be launched. By then, Kebi’s ten thousand soldiers might be able to hold some territory in Youzhou.

Hua Xingcan couldn’t believe what he heard—what father would trample on his own son?

Du Fugui laughed so heartily that his wound pulled painfully; he had to stifle his laughter, nearly choking. Hastily, he got up and left, avoiding the children’s sight.

Some of the larger sects might seize this opportunity to challenge the Tianjian Sect’s position and rise as the new sacred ground of martial arts.

I’ve written about dual-world transmigration, mathematics, petroleum industry, biology, and doctors; this time, the challenge is forensic science.

Today he stood at the mine’s entrance, watching the work below. No matter how complicated the surrounding search was, ultimately, it was all to gather clues.

But in front of Qin Hao, they dared not utter a word, like children caught in wrongdoing, heads bowed in silence.

Seeing Qin Hao so anxious, Elder Jing seemed as if the sky were falling; he swallowed the words at his lips and held them back.

Does Hua Ling know something? Or is the entire affair a secret scheme between Hua Lao and the old man?

She wasn’t afraid of ghosts—having watched countless horror films in her past life, she always treated them calmly as mere entertainment.

The Tianhuang, however, saw through his clumsy scheme and wasn’t fooled for a moment. Hidden within Heian Capital, he showed no intention of engaging in battle.

Song Yinian opened her eyes and saw Zhao Mujia before her; she was momentarily stunned, unsure if it was a hallucination.

Many martial artists overheard Yun Feiyang’s promise to accompany Nalan Muxue to the Sword Tomb. Upon hearing this, the supreme warriors of the Xu family pursued them.

A Grandmaster is a formidable presence anywhere, able to dominate a region. Grandmasters value their reputations highly and are rarely hired by outsiders—not to mention hiring three at once.

Yet, Yunyin Village was a prosperous village of great endurance, possessing many compensatory methods. Despite some flaws in aptitude, her long and diligent training ensured she could control the power of the Tailed Beasts without them running wild.
