Chapter 588: Incense Burning Before the Year

"Fuck, stop struggling."

"You...!!"

Yao Bei Bei felt this person had a terrible personality, never treating her as a woman, simply grabbing her and yanking her forward.

"Why are you grabbing my chest?"

"Nonsense, it's the arm." Jiang Nian was speechless, turned to point at her, "Shut up, we'll talk outside."

As he finished speaking, a firework shot toward Yao Bei Bei.

"Ahh!!!"

Jiang Nian

Elise, using a brief teleportation to close the distance, surged forward again, her grotesque mouthparts tearing into Ling Ling's body.

Half an incense stick later, the demons had repeatedly scoured every location except the abyss, yet still found no trace of Ning Xia.

A combination of factors nearly trapped Suermann himself, but once he left the boundaries of Gangdian City, along this steam train route toward the 【Cangxue Mountains】, there were travelers from other city-states, each with complex backgrounds.

Some tourists, who had been considering slipping in another vote, lost their appetite upon hearing the sound.

The curtain, stirred by the wind, had not yet settled, and Ming Rikawa could still see through the gap it opened that Chun Nai's room across the way had already been darkened.

The sentry was skeptical; judging from Li Kuiyong's thin clothing, he didn't look like he came from the north—could he have escaped from the south?

For experienced professional players, the姬's passive trigger could be estimated by instinct.

After all, in his mind, professional appraisers were almost always old men in their fifties or sixties.

Since the members of the Hunting Church filled all positions of the 【Pilgrims】, the 【Pilgrims】 of Gangdian City were essentially under the Hunting Church's control; as the parish high priestess, Selena naturally held the position of Chief Pilgrim.

Though she now seemed harmless and claimed that incident was merely an accident she hadn't noticed, it was only her word—what if she was pretending?

"If she's willing, I'm willing too, but right now we need to track down the Divine Thief Organization." Tang Long had felt guilty toward Zhu Kongque, but with Qin Dandan throwing herself at him, he felt a small measure of comfort.

Rong Rong hadn't truly minded; there had been matches that caused uproar from the very start, and any student who made it to this round was undoubtedly skilled—any exaggerated result was acceptable.

A single scrap from this tombstone, if taken out, could let an ordinary person live comfortably for a lifetime.

Ye Qingcheng suddenly startled, her face streaked with tears, staring at the man before her—and suddenly found it laughable. One moment he had been so wild, the next he had changed his expression entirely, reverting to his usual cold detachment.

"I can testify." Everyone in the castle knew about the bracelet; a servant stepped forward to confirm it.

He didn't want to speak of it—first, he feared his wife would be angry, and second, he feared she'd look down on his parents; after marriage, he felt his troubles had multiplied greatly.

"Are those two also from our village?" A Jiu turned to look back, thinking they didn't resemble farmers.

This required them to keep pace in every aspect—finances, connections, and personal talent, among others.

"Let go! What if it's a marriage alliance? You can't have both fish and bear's paw. Being a lofty consort with power over life and death is better than being deceived!" Jiang Qinge was furious; had she not been injured, she would have leapt up and beaten the man before her senseless.

The Sun family didn't believe it—how could the son-in-law possibly refuse? This was clearly a win-win. Could it be that Big Sister simply didn't want it herself?

"Damn..." Hearing Chen Mo say that, they dared not speak harshly anymore and instead changed direction, no longer following Chen Mo and the others.

Old Yi leaned on his cane but walked with steady, commanding strides; when he appeared at the door, everyone's expressions turned strange.
