Chapter 1065: Under the Shifting Skies

When Xia Qing brought out treasures like pearls, a full-length mirror, a magnifying glass, and even promised each wolf a protective suit, she realized nothing could persuade them to deliver medicine to the One-eyed Tiger. To these wolves, the tiger was the enemy—no matter what she offered, they simply refused.

Left with no other choice, Xia Qing shifted tactics, trying to make these two evolved leaders of the Northern Wolf Pack see how important it was to save the tiger.

Medicinal herbs were only part of the answer. What truly mattered was making the wolves understand that if the tiger fell, they might not be far behind—if the lips are gone, the teeth feel the chill.

Don’t forget, though Fino and Mary couldn’t use many of their powers here on Earth, their physical strength was still far beyond normal folk. Hopping a fence was nothing for them.

After some bickering, Jeanne, Artoria, and Fesna all turned at once, shouting a collective “Hmph!” before letting go of Ye Xingzhi.

Yang Yan kept up his attacks, hitting his mark every time. Each blow shattered its target, even as countless sparks of lightning rained down over his body.

Brother Qian’s bloodshot eyes unnerved the eldest brother—this beast looked like a killer possessed. Maybe he’d been cursed… Either way, it was probably best to handle him at the market. Treat it like handing out bonuses to the guys today.

A thunderous roar split the sky and shook the world. The ground, already reduced to fine sand, erupted into a swirling storm. Waves of yellow dust danced through the air.

He reached out, meeting Ye Qian’s hand. Their palms slammed together with a crisp, ringing sound.

Emperor Radiance didn’t hesitate to accept Squeems’ challenge. Truth was, if Emperor Radiance held back, there was a real risk Squeems would sweep through that region of the cosmos and drag it all into the Abyssal Hell.

Just as Squeems said, Wang Zhi Ran was trapped in a dream. But this was no ordinary dream. Normally, people aren’t aware when they’re dreaming. But if someone realizes they’re inside a dream, that’s the very moment the dream ends.

No one really knew why, but Professor Xinlin almost never visited the back mountain. Senior Wei Ying said that Xinlin actually had another family, right inside Jinghai City. That was why he rarely came back. Wei Ying didn’t know where that home was, and Jiemu certainly had no clue.

The icy words from the gold-robed figure suddenly shattered the heavy, suffocating gloom. For a split second, the man in yellow froze in surprise, then burst out laughing.

Watching the couple before him, Feng Changlin felt all kinds of emotions swirling inside. Would Yu Mo really be able to marry into the Feng family without a hitch? Would their days together be smooth and happy?

Chief Zheng Yonghao sighed to himself. He’d heard the rumors—this Shen family’s child was a handful. But seeing him today, his looks alone could steal your breath. His temperament, though, was even more overwhelming.

That was the one thing He Fang couldn’t figure out. He’d been tailing the bandits for half an hour now. Finally, they stopped. By then, the sky was growing pale, with the sun peeking over the eastern horizon, almost as if playing hide-and-seek.

Far above, dark clouds churned and tumbled. Giant azure dragons twisted through them in endless loops. A crushing sense of pressure fell over the entire royal city.

Qiuqiu understood right away—he was supposed to keep looking as before. Annoyed, Qiuqiu ignored him, but still accepted the bag and set it down by his feet.

In the next moment, Xingyue’s body slowly faded away. As for the Heart Demon, a series of emotions flickered across his face before settling into a faint smile.

“Enough! No matter what happens between you and Chenyu, the family won’t get involved! You can go now!” The old man cut Lin Xun off before he could say anything else.

She tried desperately to twist her body, hoping to please him, but quickly found herself pinned down with no space to move at all. It wasn’t just animal possessiveness—he held her so tight it felt like cold iron clamps, leaving her powerless and barely able to breathe.

Thinking back on their tangled past, it all seemed nothing but hurt. If he could have let go of the past, if he could have moved on, he might have forgotten the promises Yue Sheng once made. But those memories ran deep—he remembered all too well how, right after making those promises, she’d followed them up with betrayal.
