"Yu’er has no right to comment on Uncle. Fifteenth Aunt, you should return to your room and rest," Murong Yu said, then walked away without looking back.
Today, Huang Xuanling performed terribly; his father’s gaze never settled on him again. Instead, his four elder brothers received repeated instructions and admonishments, leaving him wholly ignored.
"Master Hua, I hope you will not regret the words you have spoken," Long Tianqi remained seated, as steady as a mountain.

He had hoped to become relatives, but the timing had simply passed.
Ye Han roared, pushed to the utmost rage. He had never felt this way before. Even when facing the strongest foes, with no hope of victory, he could always fight with abandon, staking his life—if he fell, so be it, there would be no regrets.

Li Yan kept fleeing and leaping, secretly devouring and growing stronger. He needed to amass his strength to contend with the saints.
