Chapter Thirty: All of This Was My Own Choice

Yu Wanqiao explained her purpose, and only then did Wu Ping'an pause what he was doing. However, he merely shook his head.

"My mother was perfectly fine when I left the house, but when I returned just now, I found her lying on the floor, unconscious. I went up to ask her what was wrong, but she couldn't answer me. Just as I was at a loss for what to do, she woke up and told me she was fine, just a little tired. After she woke up, she even made me my favorite soup, and then..."

The excitement in Yu Weiyan's heart instantly turned to disappointment. She pulled her hand away, and her soul returned to her body in an instant.

Scholar Qin had not received any word of agreement from the other party and had already prepared for the worst. He never expected that Zhu Da would send the person back today—a pleasant surprise indeed.

He took out fifty empty crystals, arranged them in a circle on the round table in the council hall, and then opened a jar sealing a creature from the Shadow Realm. With effortless control, he subdued the creature and lay down inside the circle. The elders gathered around, watching Xing Tianyu as he lay there.

He began to run, and Zhou Qingyun followed, along with the servants behind them. They were fully armed, and their movement resembled a charge. The street was not long, and the sudden sight of a group of people charging over with murderous intent, in stark contrast to the festive atmosphere, caused the entire street to fall silent.

Yao Henuan spun around abruptly and returned to Yue Qingping, grabbing him by the collar. If Yao Henuan had only shown a hint of murderous intent before, the current aura was like a physical assault upon him.

Ensuring there were no surveillance cameras, she immediately grabbed Xing Tianyu’s collar. "This is not what we agreed upon," she said, her expression grim.

Just as the Great Emperor of Fengdu was growing anxious, a Buddhist chant suddenly echoed from afar, followed by a burst of brilliant golden light. Wherever the light reached, the earth, wind, water, and fire immediately calmed.

The bailiffs hesitated due to Cuihong's actions, remaining in place and looking toward Yu Changqing. After all, Yu Changqing was the powerful and high-ranking Left Chancellor.

In the eyes of Gu Chenyan, Wang Miaomiao was incredibly charming at this moment. Her fair face was lightly adorned with makeup—not overly flashy, but just enough to perfectly accentuate her beauty. As she slept, Wang Miaomiao looked like a Sleeping Beauty, waiting for a prince's kiss to awaken her.

The entire Yu building was under Yue Qingping's control; if he wanted to do something to Yu Guiyu, would he really need to choose this specific moment?

Ye Tian looked at the orphanage and slowly walked toward it. With a creak of the door, he heard the joyful laughter of the children.

Seeing him pressing closer, Zhusha could not help but feel a hint of nervousness. Even though she was speaking up for justice, in the face of the opponent's absolute power, it would not have the slightest effect.

The village where my grandparents lived was detested by all the surrounding villages. The villagers had many names for it: some called it the Village of Idlers, some the Village of Thugs, and others the Village of Retribution.

"That night, my parents prepared a sumptuous dinner for me. The three of us sat around the table, laughing and talking; everything was so wonderful." Sophie looked up, her gaze piercing through the air, and a smile of infinite longing appeared on her face, as if she had returned to that night.

"May I ask who paid you to come and kill me?" Nie Wei asked, curious about who wanted her dead.

The next day, after court was adjourned, the magistrate changed into casual clothes and sat in a private room at the Lion Restaurant. Gazing at the warm spring scenery outside the window, he thought of his usually dignified wife and how, under his guidance, she had learned the tricks of the "Jade Exquisite," and could not help but beam with joy.

A grasshopper flew from somewhere and landed on the car window, its wings pulsing as if it were ready to fly away at any moment.

Wei Liang's personality was fiery by nature, so the fact that such a thing happened at this time was within my expectations. But what did it mean to be taken away by the police? Was this kind of thing even within the jurisdiction of the police?
