"Alright, stop chatting and come eat.""I'm so hungry I feel faint," Gu Nian said without any pretension, jumping to her feet. Her eyes sparkled as she gazed at the dining table. "What a feast!

Fifth Floor, hallway.The dwarf stumbled backward, patting his head to extinguish the flames. After much effort, the fire was finally out, but his signature ponytail had been reduced to half its original length."I hate fire," he muttered, his gaze venomously fixed on Gu Nian. With a sharp mind, he issued orders: "Qi practitioner, block downstairs. Captive woman, find the target.

In a fifth-floor bedroom of an ordinary residential building in Huangjiang District, a family of three was peacefully asleep.The windows were wide open, and the hot, humid wind blew in from outside, gently swaying the clothes hanging on the balcony.Downstairs, in a dimly lit alleyway, a nearly seventy-year-old man, stark naked, with shifty eyes, scanned his surroundings.

At No. 88 Lianhu Road, Ren Ye was still in Xu Peng’s office, reading through information about the Star Gate. There was no other choice—his dad was busy editing manuscripts, his sister was preoccupied, and no one at home paid him any attention. Staying home would mean sitting idly, so he might as well stick around here and get to know some “distasteful” new acquaintances. “Quick!
