If only you were her.

Gu Siyuan froze, her entire body going rigid. Then, silently, she straightened her back, staring at the person before her without uttering a word.

“Had enough fun? If you have, let’s go back.”

Gu Siyuan cast a glance at the person beside her, then obediently stepped forward, waving at the group behind her, wanting to bid them farewell.

“If you haven’t had enough fun, you don’t have to go back,” Gu Shihuan said coolly.

Gu Siyuan immediately shook her head and hurried after her.

Gu Shihuan walked ahead.

Behind them, Qu Wan was glared at.

“You little brat, all my affection for you was wasted! How dare you betray me!”

Qu Wan stuck out her tongue at him.

“Just you wait, I’ll find a way to get back at you.”

“But today Xu Nian is at home. If he wakes up and I’m still in bed, that wouldn’t look good.” Ma Xinyi, having just complained about wanting to sleep in, immediately sat up briskly after saying this.

“However, knowing Wanwan’s temperament, I’m afraid this time she won’t easily forgive Lin Bosheng. I wonder if she’ll even refuse his help,” Ling Wanwan said worriedly, thinking of Guan Wanwan’s character.

Beside her, Zhou Sining was almost amused to exasperation—was she a trash can now? Everything bad got dumped on her.

Xu Li watched Liancheng turn away and leave without a backward glance, her heart twisting with pain. Back then, Liancheng had been so good to her, even indulging her every whim. She couldn’t understand how things had changed so drastically.

Letting them go, the Tianyin Sect and the Ji family would be wary of acting recklessly, knowing that Fan Chen was present among them.

The three brothers had discussed it late into the night yesterday. Although they usually followed their eldest brother, he was far away. If anything happened to them here, they couldn’t count on his help. It was better to have the money in hand and some peace of mind.

For now, everything was still fine, nothing to be overly worried about—at least not within this year.

Chang Shushu stepped a bit closer, reaching out his hand. Just as he touched his hair, he quickly drew back again. His hair was thick, even coarser than he had imagined.

Liu Xian’er was just about to call Fan Chen and the others to leave when a voice behind her interrupted.

She had thought it would be some mysterious cave dwelling, but it turned out to be nothing more than an untended wasteland.

Meanwhile, Tan Chi, with his striking, deep-set features, gazed at the pure and ethereal Fairy Mingguang at the other end. His eyes became fixed, staring at the goddess-like girl as if he were seeing a long-lost lover from a previous life. His heart clenched, as if a bellows were pumping in his chest.

The stooped old man’s expression finally changed. He hadn’t expected that, facing Lucifer today, the man’s strength would have soared so much compared to the pitiful state he’d been in under his hand before.

Countless times, he had wanted to push open that door, to find out what had happened in the street, right in front of him. But every time, his hand would reach out, only to withdraw again at the last moment.

Shiyao searched her storage ring, discovered she had no copper coins, and in the end had to hand a gold coin to the merchant.

After an hour of conversation, the crown prince had learned most of the characteristics of the people of Lei Kingdom, as well as the events that had unfolded during General Rong’s years guarding the border.

“As long as you want to go back, but can’t, then there is a possibility for us to work together,” the octopus-man said calmly.

“What are you thinking?” Prince Jing was long used to her sharp tongue and didn’t take it to heart.

Li Zhonggui was absolutely loyal to the emperor, a trustworthy man. So, it wasn’t impossible to have him deliver the message to the emperor. Still, to make sure Li Zhonggui understood, it would be safer to explain the current situation to him in detail.

Just as he had said, once things were settled here, he would leave at once and never again appear in her life.

Watching the Zhi Yang Bird in the distance easily block the elders’ combined assault, Fairy Yu’s heart jolted. She bit her lip, her mind racing—this power far surpassed anything she had imagined.

As for Meng Xuan’s casual bluff just now, it was hard to say if Bai Yue’er had been fooled, but Du Jin Yue had certainly taken it seriously.
