Chapter 38: Pass On the Message!

In other words... Song Shaocheng must betray his side!

That's right, Song Shaocheng must join forces with Chen Fan. If he does, everything will be settled once and for all.

While chatting with Zhang Tianze today, Chen Fan discovered something. Zhang Tianze, after all, is a young master from the provincial capital, and the channels he holds are mainly from the city.

...

Bai Suzhen was wielding her scissors, having just cut a branch, when the piercing cries of an infant echoed from the nursery.

Lei Kun was astonished when he witnessed this scene; he had never expected Harvey to take the initiative against the pirates.

Barely five seconds later, more than a dozen mercenaries appeared behind Gojo Taro. Each held a gun, their muzzles all aimed squarely at Lei Kun and Gu Ben.

Once everything was settled, our group began preparations. Kou Feng drove us straight down the same road we had taken before towards the card room. Along the way, there were hardly any people, and we didn't even see a handful of cars.

I squatted in the corner for five minutes, chatting on WeChat, barely moving. My legs were numb with cold. I put away my phone, stamped my feet hard, then started heading back upstairs.

"Injured, my ass!" I retorted boisterously to Kou Feng. Truth be told, I still felt a bit uneasy inside, a feeling I couldn't quite describe.

Fortunately, the referee intervened just in time, stopping Valon. Otherwise, Jackie would surely have been killed.

The Song family was far from willing in their hearts. To be honest, she had only been there for a short while today and already felt out of sorts. Lin Qiuer was simply too enviable, enjoying privileges far greater than anyone else in the town.

Though Dongsha Garden housed just four families, its security was exceptionally strong. So, as soon as we arrived at the gate, we met an obstacle.

After hanging up, I breathed a long sigh of relief. As long as the three of us could sit down and talk things through, the problem would surely be resolved.

"Uncle Liu, is the cultivation sect my father once joined still around here?" Li Yin wondered if it was worth investigating—there might still be something to gain.

Wu Fan’s judgment was spot-on. After the Star Demon’s third ancestor split into one hundred and eight incarnations and gravely wounded the one hundred and eight Ashura clan chiefs, he was at the end of his strength. The second ancestor of the Star Demon appeared simultaneously, implanting the Star Demon’s heart into Maguero.

As for Eluri, she became a devout follower of the Moe God Cult by a twist of fate, while Minnie became a true, steadfast believer step by step.

After traversing the vast eight-hundred-mile sea of sand, Fu Qingxiao brought Lu Yi to a county town on its edge.

Seeing Minnie, a faint trace of joy flashed in Eluri’s eyes—enough to make the emotionless Eluri show such delight, which spoke volumes about her fondness for Minnie. At once, Eluri reached out to pat Minnie’s head.

Bai Suzhen shook her head. It wasn't that she lacked ideas; rather, there was simply nothing she could do. In the end, all she could do was sigh helplessly.

The master understood his disciple’s temperament well. If Qingqing wasn't angry, it meant she had agreed.

What kind of person was Chen Handong? In terms of status, he was a native of the capital with an incredibly impressive background. His father was a high-ranking official. Though the script never specified his exact position, it could be inferred he was at least a ministerial-level official—a rank that truly qualified as high.

Yet, before anyone could celebrate, the teleportation array suddenly flared with light. Seeing it activate again, everyone’s smiles froze instantly.

"Pfft, peace of mind my foot! I aged a few years just putting out your fires—you’re breaking my heart, not easing it," Lin Chufang laughed and scolded.
