Volume 1, Chapter 41: In One Year, They Will Be Divorced

He walked over with stiff steps, gazing at the wrinkled little bundle of flesh in the swaddling clothes, its tiny hands wiggling.

The nurse placed the infant gently into his palms, and he felt as if his breath had stopped.

"It is not..." Yan Fei's voice held a magical quality, lingering in Feng Guang's mind and turning her thoughts into a muddled mess.

Upstairs, after trying on several outfits, Mo Yanhuan found it even harder to decide which one to wear.

Long Yan returned his gaze with a wide smile, then turned, walked back into the living room, switched on the television, and reclined comfortably on the sofa to watch.

"You crazy girl, do you not want your ears anymore?" Before the words had even faded, the hand Long Yan had been using to wipe her ear was firmly gripped within his powerful palm.

However, before the two of them could board the vehicle, they were surrounded by a dozen men dressed in black uniforms.

The map in Jun Hui's hand had been crafted over the course of a year by hundreds of talented scholars and experts. It encompassed the entire territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty and was exceptionally detailed.

"Did I? Did I really say that?" Dong Ling asked with an air of indifference, continuing to eat her noodles.

Even so, Dai Jiang felt as if his chest had been struck hard by a heavy hammer, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Madam Jiang had attended to Old Madam Qiao for many years, so she knew her tastes perfectly. Old Madam Qiao had grown accustomed to her service and allowed her to assist with the meal.

The hearts of Feng Luoyu and Ran Luoxue skipped a beat. Although they had already sensed something, hearing it spoken by Xuan Kong was an entirely different matter.

This time, not only did the Blood-Burning Blade flicker unsteadily, but the form of the Famine shifted erratically, twisting and warping like a reflection in a hall of mirrors. Its arms would suddenly elongate, its stature would shrink or flatten, and at times it even morphed into a sphere, becoming completely unpredictable.

Liu Yuyan had come to terms with it now; if she had to blame anyone, she would blame her own bad luck. She lacked Tang Jian's musical talent and the kind of voice that could stun and captivate a crowd. In the music industry, a place teeming with stars, she was nothing more than an exceptionally ordinary singer.

Listening to how meticulously he described the details, Lin Tong knew that this sister held an indelible place in his heart.

This was his first time truly leading a research project, and the complexity of the human brain far exceeded current levels of human understanding, with a vast ocean of mysteries waiting to be explored.

In the past, Xu Zhenhua had gone to the battlefield many times, but those places could hardly be called the front lines. Furthermore, he had always left directly from his unit, so his family did not realize he was risking his life.

"This move is indeed improper. Zhuan Zhu has already entered the realm of the Sage; how can he be sealed away so casually? The matter of Cang Yuan, after all, has nothing to do with him and should not be conflated with this." An elegant voice sounded at that moment.

"You even know that?" Tang Jian was momentarily stunned. Isn't the system from that place called Earth? How could it possibly know this?

"This is Hua Mei, a servant I took in within the Hundred Thousand Mountains. She is a spirit born from a dark flower." Zhang Shuo did not hide Hua Mei's identity.

Deep down, she couldn't help but think: why do commoners pretend to be so sophisticated? Drinking Tieguanyin? Drinking Longjing? It was such a waste of money to have it shipped from so far away; it was simply extravagant.

The azure ripple resembled a transparent mirror, shattering instantly upon impact with the spear.

Yao Ling'er had skipped the banquet at the Duke of England's residence for the sake of this matter. Now that she felt secure here, she could not help but be curious about how things were going over there.

Dongfang Xiao felt a shiver of alarm in his heart; whether it was the aura he exuded or his alchemy, the old man before him was a true master.
