Chapter 51: How Could You Be So Heartless?

It had already been over an hour since Shen Yong entered the palace in the company of the eunuchs from the Palace of Longevity and Health, and the situation over there remained entirely unknown.

"Mother, there is something I am hesitant to bring up, though I wonder if I should..." Shen Wanning lowered her head, stopping herself mid-sentence.

"Go ahead, let me hear it."

"Ever since elder sister returned, things at home have not been going smoothly. Could it be that her presence clashes with our Shen household? It is not that I intentionally wish to distance myself from her, but given how many incidents have occurred, and considering elder sister's temper—"

Even so, Lin Xiao still did not lower his guard. He knew that Logan possessed a counter-kill ability—a special skill bestowed upon him by the God of Darkness. The reason it had not appeared the previous time was likely because it was consumed by "Supreme-One Sword" before he arrived.

Then, the problem arose: Xiaoxiao's home only had one guest room, and this room naturally had to be given to Xiaoxiao's grandparents to sleep in. The two elderly folks could not return home so late, especially since Xiaoxiao's grandfather had consumed a great deal of alcohol.

With a grand wave of his hand, the second-class sergeant ordered four armed police officers to charge toward Song Xiaotian and Lu Jingyao, smoothly pulling out a thick hemp rope about the size of an index finger from behind their backs.

Even on Douyu Live, many people still viewed e-sports as merely playing video games, completely oblivious to the immense effort poured into the e-sports industry.

Afterward, the foodie Paul, who had been burying his head in eating, could wait no longer and personally dropped the beef tripe into the boiling pot.

Just when Zhang Tianci thought he was doomed, he suddenly discovered that his absorption rate of the spirit stones was multiplying. With a single thought, he immediately realized that the Xuanyuan Sword was actually draining his divine power first and then using him as a medium to absorb the spiritual energy within the spirit stones.

Although that person could not understand what Wang Dadong was saying, upon hearing the shout, he still subconsciously turned his head back.

Just as both sides were on the verge of erupting into a second round of earth-shattering clashes, a deep rumble of thunder suddenly resounded beside everyone's ears.

Although he had not been involved in the team's previous trades, the various trade rumors still made Dalembert somewhat uneasy. Many people also believed that the Haitian's days in New York were nearing their end; provided a favorable trade offer came along, the Knicks would certainly not let it slip away.

However, after this game, Rasheed Wallace truly felt that he and his teammates needed to seriously reflect on themselves. Perhaps it was time for old-timers like him, harboring dreams of a championship, to leave. After all, given their current age, the future of the Pistons was simply not something they should be worrying about.

Dong Bin was usually quite intimidated by academic bullies like Shi Qiang. Seeing that the fellow was enraged, he did not dare to utter another word.

The man surnamed Lu nodded, then closed his eyes. He drew three divining sticks from the bamboo cylinder and placed them on the table.

Yang Haohui shoved his mobile phone into his pocket and sighed. Boss Zhou was truly a qualified mentor in the art of life, personally giving him a practical lesson on what it felt like when even drinking cold water could get stuck between your teeth while feeling vexed.

"I'd like to know how much money I currently have in the accounts regarding our joint venture to open a winery? I have some matters to attend to recently, so I need the funds," Du Shaoying brought up the main business.

As for Qin Fan's performance, Hai Jinlu understood very well what was going on. With the Hai family engaging in commerce for so many years, their management model was fundamentally the same. The revenue generated from anyone's client was counted as their performance, and a portion of the profit had to be allocated to the handler.

During the reign of Hong Taiji, even with a formidable rival like Harinjul, there were many things she could have fought for, and Hong Taiji was indeed quite a gentleman in every respect.

Stepping into their room, Tang Ying saw Yang Mi just emerging from the bathroom, dressed in a pink nightgown with light makeup delicately applied to her face.

For sects with ancient inheritances, some secrets were passed down purely by word of mouth, leading to broken lineages at the slightest mishap—such was the tragedy of sects! In truth, the reluctance to impart skills freely was the primary culprit behind the disappearance of sects. Yet, inherent sectarian divisions dictated that this original sin must continue to be upheld.
