Thinking of it, Na Lan blushed and lowered her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qian Xun smiled, recalling the emperor’s stunned expression when they first met. He remembered how the emperor had dropped his prayer beads—clear proof that she and her mother were strikingly alike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, good, good.” The final syllable vanished in Li Rongbao’s mouth—he had fallen asleep, as Jue Luo Shi had said, peacefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Na Lan grew serious, gripping the reins, and lightly squeezed the horse’s flanks as Hong Li had instructed. To her delight, the horse began to walk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The apartment was untouched. Lu Zhanyan dragged her suitcase out; everything remained as before, except she left the key beneath the rug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhanyan suddenly understood why her teacher’s attitude had shifted so drastically—this was the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Chu, Madam, please have some tea.” He bowed deeply, hands folded, awaiting Chu Haoxuan’s orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Yufan exhaled slowly, calming himself. He lifted his cup, drank some water, and steadied his nerves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came the sound of pounding against the iron door—directly opposite Ye Chen’s position, clearly visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine, fine… I can’t argue with you. Would you mind, Commander Qin, accompanying him?” Lei Ziqing squinted, seeking Qin Hu’s opinion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good!” “Master, you’re the best!” As Luo Yang was flung back and Wan Ping’s palm strike was effortlessly neutralized by Zhang Yifan’s sword, the crowd erupted in cheers. While Tang Rou and others cheered wildly, Ouyang Feng and his group wore grim expressions—though the outcome was not yet decided, Zhang Yifan clearly held the upper hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Xia abruptly halted, snapped back to awareness, and peered through the glass window beside the door at the man inside—his expression was clearly off, and his hands trembled unconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kai spoke to Zhou Yimin while glancing repeatedly at Li Nana, who sat at the desk playing with her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoever defies Zhang Tianxuan shall die!” Before anyone could react, Zhang Yifan seized Liu Liu’s throat with his right hand and, coldly speaking, crushed it with a single squeeze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m joking. The Martial Emperor is the Martial Emperor; Long Sheng is Long Sheng. Long Yin’s affair has nothing to do with Emperor Mu. More importantly, the Mu imperial family cannot send Long Yin.” Long Yin smiled, her beautiful, voluptuous face captivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Mingxia’s every movement radiated the elegance and nobility of high society—something Lu had witnessed in Bo Siyan; it was an innate bearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three months before the wedding, Fang Lan and Qiu Jingrong were fully focused on designing her ceremony, constantly dragging Qiao Nuannuan and Qiao Shaoting—not just discussing at home, but traveling the world to find the perfect wedding supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Ting, the Alliance Leader,’s face brightened as she saw Lin Yifeng so relaxed and confident, as if he hadn’t taken his opponent’s ultimate move seriously at all.\u003C\u002Fp>",619,"2026-06-19T18:47:42.084Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","29cb17287f9968a08cd1ae1fa9c368943cc7b10dab29804cf07cef3e4649327b","there-is-a-malevolent-spirit-chapter-78","there-is-a-malevolent-spirit-chapter-76",209,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthere-is-a-malevolent-spirit-cover.jpg"]
