Chapter 266: Transformation

Ximen Yan froze, his eyes blazing at the brown-clad youth: "What did Xu Ge say? Did Qin the widow give birth to a whole litter of monks?"

Zhao Ti's eyes subtly narrowed; within Changchun Valley, there were three rules: never mention monks, never speak of monastic affairs, never learn Buddhist Wu Gong.

Changchun Valley is a branch of Kunlun Mountain, and Kunlun Mountain holds a grudge against monks—likely due to those old-fashioned monks—so banning such things here is normal, but a widow giving birth to a whole litter of monks—

Worse still, Liu Yihua noticed a hint of delight in Qi Xue Yan's gaze. Liu Yihua chuckled awkwardly, leaning back as if to escape her fiery stare.

Although Yan Yuming isn't much of a man, he's offered plenty of gifts daily; if I strip him down completely, it's not just a loss to me, but I'd also have no answer for the others who follow me—they'd think serving under me offers no security at all.

It was a cute creature with long rabbit-like ears, its neck covered in soft white-brown fur, resembling the ear fox; its genetic composition was highly unstable, easily altered by environment, its temperament gentle and easy to raise.

Mo Chen whispered to Bao Bao, asking what his wife was doing; Gu Bao Bao buried her face in her bowl, ignoring him. The others grew even more curious; Gu Bao Bao quietly told Mo Chen she'd explain later.

The giant donned the Pagoda Battle Robe, rushed outward in a panic, saw the two chatting leisurely, stepped forward and swung his fist—under his swing, the Pagoda Battle Robe tore the air with a ripping sound, sending a massive light blade slicing horizontally.

No matching dimensional coordinates could be found in the records; no reference points at all, not even someone to ask where this world was—this desolate land offered no one to question.

"Yihua, has that Soros become this powerful? I don't believe it!" Song Chuxia said, unimpressed at Liu Yihua's words.

"That… that hard thing is the key in my pocket—what else did you think it was?" Liu Yihua grinned mischievously.

Back in the provincial capital, Nie Yun used to take Tan Qiu out for evening walks, and many would stare curiously at Tan Qiu. Now, when Nie Yun takes Tan Qiu out, it's just normal.

"I really miss the old days," Cornelia pulled the boy into her arms, pressing her cheek gently against his, then whispered softly.

Seeing him dazed, she took the initiative to drape her robe over Lu Tianxian, fastened it for him, and helped him up, glancing at him twice.

"Don't worry, he won't die. I'm a professional!" Sabina smiled faintly, as if reading Luo Li's thoughts, utterly unconcerned.

He wanted to beat this new partner who stole his big payday to death—how could he possibly hand over the land himself? Would selling land make money breed more money?

He explained his plan to her in detail. They deliberated for hours before finally agreeing. Ouyang Ruo's throat grew dry from talking; Qin Zhi was drenched in sweat.

Xiang Chi said the earlier sentences were normal enough, but the final few words came out like a mosquito's hum—as if he were embarrassed.

If it weren't for last night's final hand of stud, when I watched you blindly bluff a royal flush.

"If my guess is right, as soon as trading opens tomorrow, a flood of people will dump their stocks—get finance ready to buy them up immediately and stabilize the share price!" Gu Song instructed his son, and still uneasy, he told Gu Weihua he'd come to the company tomorrow to personally monitor the stocks.

Invisible arrays now surrounded the thatched hut; the hut and Huang Zhenghua seemed to have donned invisible cloaks, vanishing completely.

Though they initially felt mutual sympathy, as they spent time together, both developed feelings—they truly care for each other now.
