Volume One, Chapter One Hundred: Caught by My Second Brother Again (Finale, Part Two)

Huo Mengyi lifted her face to the sky; it seemed she had lost many things.

When Huo Mengyi saw the Huo family again, she never expected it to be in such a scene: she had been stabbed.

Du Jingcheng, Fu Xueting’s childhood sweetheart.

Without another word, he drove a knife into her. Huo Mengyi was rushed to the hospital at once, and only because help came in time did she manage to save her life.

Huo Mengyi knew who had stabbed her, but she refused to say.

She told the police she had not seen the face clearly.

Lin Yi stood suspended in midair, his robes snapping in the wind, his sharply defined features calm as a still, deep pool. He seemed utterly indifferent to the scene before him.

Du Fei drew a sharp breath, and at that moment he clearly saw the Iron Guard, blade in hand, sweeping toward him.

Jiang Yuan chuckled and leaned toward the giant bird, staring at it until the bird grew uneasy and watched him warily, on guard.

Given the way things stood between the two of them now, there was no need for any cloying sweet talk.

In the next second, Lin Feng’s hand shot out at an impossible angle and clamped around the other man’s throat.

What was more, the prime minister, heads of state, and others had even taken up residence at the research base. They had to remain there at all times, waiting for the latest data and news, suffering body and soul alike.

Tianyin Divine General and the others felt the killing intent Wuchen Divine Marquis had inadvertently revealed, and that faint trace alone chilled them to the bone, making them shudder and not daring to entertain the slightest thought of escape.

Yet a whole night of torment had not left him weary; instead, he was brimming with confidence, eagerly awaiting the old man’s punishment.

“Are you looking to die?” After a brief daze, Biaozi was the first to recover, pointing at me and hurling a curse.

It looked more like a white ghost; if it appeared at night, it might well frighten someone senseless.

“Yingying, Yingying, I didn’t mean it, I really didn’t mean it, I truly like you...” Wang Fengju cried his heart out. He had been wrong, but he truly had never meant to harm Liu Yingying. Yet after what happened between him and He Qianqian, even the divorce had been handled by Academician Liu. He had not even had the chance to see Liu Yingying.

The longer Chen Xi stayed with Zhao Min, the more flaws she revealed, and the more intense the panic in his heart became, fearing that Minmin might suddenly disappear.

Lang Xi looked at it and, in a wandering train of thought, recalled the message Tang Zhaocheng had sent. It seemed the Jiang family from the south had also come to interfere in these matters. As for vampires, how much did humans truly understand? Vampires that could not drink blood survived on human food; in the end, how were they any different from dogs that had lost their wildness and been tamed?

He also took his seat. With Ye Buxiu present, those five beasts finally looked a little more like people at the table, though they still moved with lightning speed, snatching the food from one another.

If Father the Emperor and my royal brothers found out, who knew how they would mock me? I would never be able to hold my head up again.

Li Hengan had absolutely no idea what Gu Xun was doing. After all, this was her first time ever at such sneaking, lock-picking antics, and there was no time to coordinate. But since the door had already been knocked on, she did not have time to think further and raised her hand to cover the peephole.

Madam Liu looked around. There was nothing in the woodshed besides firewood, so she simply picked up a long, thin piece and held it in her hand as a threat, her gaze even more ferocious. The young mistress had said to lock them in the woodshed, but she had never said they could not be beaten. A little injury would not be a problem.

Shopkeeper Song hurriedly bowed, forcing a smile onto his face. Though somewhat stiff, it was still very courteous.

Back when they were inside the sealed space, Luo Chen had felt deeply guilty for being unable to save him.

He also could not understand his master’s train of thought. Fortunately, he was no ordinary cat, or a normal one would have been scared to death.

It was that single collapse that left one man, too weak to evade in time, crushed in the chest and abdomen. Blood gushed out in a violent spray, and he died on the spot.
