Chapter 172: Oral Inquiry

"I have a son. He had an accident a few years ago," said Lawyer Zhao.

"I'm sorry," Ruan Hongzhuang apologized on Shen Siyuan's behalf.

"It's fine. It's all in the past," Lawyer Zhao smiled, as if he had truly let it go.

Shen Siyuan said nothing but turned his gaze to the little boy beside him.

Seeing this, Lawyer Zhao kept smiling, though his inner thoughts remained unknown.

"My name is Zhao Ruijin. My father said he named me after Rui—

"The lady didn't say much, but she seemed delighted every moment by the child in your womb," the maid said, choosing words Gu Anran liked to hear.

Ye Chen glanced over, his eyes deep—he sensed another Supreme being had arrived from the Immortal Realm, likely descended from the Divine Realm, and not just one.

Ji Xirui paused his work slightly upon seeing Su Randrang, a sheen of sweat on his forehead, gleaming brightly in the sunlight.

He raised his hand and unleashed a furious gust of wind; the blood mist within the passage scattered instantly, clearing a path in an instant.

"Ache, are you just being impulsive? Do you know what having a child means?" Gu Anxing's body rocked back and forth with each impact.

Provided the ancient path ahead has no obstacles—if that's truly the case, one could reach the primordial era without hindrance.

But Hua Sheng and Shi Yun heard nothing; they continued grappling, their shouts growing louder.

Guan Jinlin heard that Liu Cuilian and Erda had made contact with the Xinsi Army's Liang Zhengguo Regiment, so he fired three signal flares into the sky himself.

"What do you want me to say? If I tell you to break up with them, will you agree? If I tell you to marry me right now, will you say yes?" Du Duo finally spoke, her face filled with grievance.

The property manager laughed like a rooster crowing, brimming with mockery. The cleaners and security guards nearby, drawn by the strange sound, gathered around.

"Fan Xiao? What are you doing here?" Ran Siyear asked suspiciously, his mind racing—why had Fan Xiao intruded into his dream?

The latter sneered: "Since we can't hide it anymore, let's announce it to the world—let everyone in the sea know that betrayal of the Navy will be met with no mercy, as a warning."

Boundless waves of energy spread outward; the vast sky suddenly surged like ocean tides, rolling for dozens of kilometers, obscuring even the stars and moon.

Wu Xie's face broke into an involuntary, utterly genuine, radiant smile—and without hesitation, he placed his two-million chip stack squarely on "Big."

"Of course, immediate expulsion! Stealing exam papers is a grave offense—how can it be tolerated!" Before the teacher could finish, Mu Ying spoke with grave seriousness. The teacher only gave Tang Lingxuan a bitter smile and said no more.

"Wu Liang Fo. It's better to resolve enmity than to hold onto it. Listen to me, good sir—" The master raised one hand in a Daoist greeting, his expression calm as a still well, merely trying to reason with the furious man.

Though the name was odd and strange, that wasn't the point—since the Hundred Schools had vanished, Wu Chen's mission was complete.

The first lesson had ended; the exam had already passed 45 minutes, meaning only 75 minutes remained.

Doflamingo sat up instantly, stunned: "They found her?" He had almost given up hope of locating Sugar—no news had come in a year.

The demon, at that moment, was furiously enraged—he had never imagined Wu Chen would be so stubborn under these circumstances, relentlessly clinging to him without letting go.

Shen Yi passed through the chaotic qi and immediately sensed extreme danger—the chaotic qi itself carried powerful offensive force.
