Chapter 34: Lacking the Guts to Admit It
Within the Inner Quarter of Ningyue Square lies the Qin family estate.
Qin Shengyun, head of the Qin family, sat squarely in the center of the living room, his entire being radiating an aura of heavy authority. His expression was somber, casting a stifling atmosphere over the entire household. Even the servants moved with exaggerated caution, terrified that the slightest sound might provoke his wrath. Just then, a flurry of hurried footsteps echoed from outside the main hall, and a butler...
"Yes, one per month, but I have my own conditions," Ryan replied firmly, completely unbothered by Kompetan’s psychic scan.
Wu Fei and the Phoenix Lei Hu hailed a taxi. Unsure if the address had changed in the twenty years since he last visited, Lei Hu simply gave the driver the destination; he wondered what had become of what used to be a shantytown.
"Order the American troops to withdraw from the battlefield immediately, and simultaneously issue a ceasefire request to all nations," a five-star general urged anxiously.
I do not know how much time had passed, but the eruption of the Extreme Ice and Extreme Flame physique finally subsided. The body, left tattered and ravaged by elemental erosion, collapsed heavily to the ground.
Without glancing at the astonishment, shock, confusion, and fury etched across Bai Yunfei’s face, Wang Feng leaped onto the arena stage.
"You madman! Have you been with me all this time and still haven't seen the true nature of those nobles?! Even if you go back now, they might just kill you for having been on our side!" Da Li pleaded, making one last attempt.
When they reached Nanchang, they were told her father had already departed with the army for Nanjing. With no other options, Mother Mei had to lead the two sisters on a journey of begging all the way to Nanjing.
This left only Shi Yao, who stared at Ling Nan in bewilderment; Ling Nan, who watched Shi Yao with a hint of curiosity; and Lin Youyou, who sat restlessly to one side.
The Old Crone watched with curiosity, speculating inwardly that the deepening bond between Wang Feng and the Azure Dragon must be a benefit of the intervention of the Divine Tree from the Ancient Mountains.
Just then, the infirmary door pushed open. Instructor Charlie strode in and asked gravely, "Annie, what is the status of Fang?"
To this day, these superpowered individuals and the zombies are in absolute opposition—it is a matter of life and death, and it is impossible for them to coexist under the same roof.
Xia Yu continued to swim forward. As he entered the area shrouded in green light, the temperature rose sharply. The projection on his retina indicated that in the distance of just one inch, the temperature had spiked to three thousand degrees Celsius.
Zheng Yu rubbed his nose. He hadn't expected to be looked down upon by Zhang Jingyuan for the first time because of a celebrity. But did Zhang Peiming chase after stars, too? That was certainly unexpected.
"Uh... I'm sorry, I killed so many of your bees, and the Queen..." Zhang Xin suddenly recalled that she had slaughtered many of the Queen's subjects, and that two Queens had died saving Lu Yue.
Old Sun held a significant position in the business world; his attendance at this youth seminar was completely beyond Li Kenan's expectations.
Strangely, the three monks and nuns—Huiming and Kongkong—insisted on accompanying them. No wonder they had said they would meet again soon when rescuing Concubine Yuan; they certainly had met quickly. Knowing these people were of great use, Xue Pan did not refuse, and so they all joined the journey.
You Guang tossed and turned in bed, checking the data on his phone from time to time. After struggling like this for a while, he did not fall asleep until four in the morning.
"Now, I do not fear death. The people of the Silver Eye family have paid their blood debt; I have no regrets. Like a wanderer returning home, I await that moment," Kane said calmly.
Outside, a cacophony of noise erupted. Shouts of battle rang out from nowhere, and arrows struck the edges of the carriage with a crisp, continuous clatter. The knights' horses neighed incessantly. Xue Pan’s face broke out in a hot, oily sweat. He was stunned—how could this be happening?
Yet even so, the surrounding temperature continued to rise sharply. If an ordinary person were to remain in this area for half an hour, they would suffer from fatal dehydration.
The moment they were sighted, they were struck; that was the true terror of the laser weapon.
Things were different now. In this game, Furuya Satoru played as if he were cheating, suppressing the Koshien semi-finalist Giant Demon Fujimaki head-on.
This time, having heard about the smart terminal, the Anfeng municipal government took it very seriously. Luo Guang had noticed Starry Sky Company some time ago; whether it was at Li Huaimin’s arrangement or for other reasons, he had come for a visit.
"Cousin, go to the outskirts tomorrow and have these students return. I have made arrangements," Ming Zhongxin said, handing a paper to Ming Zhongyuan.
"It will likely be in these next two days. After all, certain preliminary preparations must be made, otherwise, it would be a joke—just like someone we know!" Although Li Dongyang answered Li Zhaoxian’s question, his words were laced with barbs aimed at Liu Daxia.
Every movement was etched into their memories, becoming an instinctive physical reaction.
"Obeying orders is a soldier’s duty. Black Three Rivers must be reached. As for how and when, that is not for them to decide." A flash of vicious, cold intent flickered deep in Mo Junhua’s eyes. He would not only go, but he would seize the credit for this victory, leaving those who plotted against him fuming in frustration, forced to swallow their own teeth along with their blood.
Li Mo’s intrusion into the realm of the Red of All Living Things was merely an accident, but his actions shattered the peace of the Blood Demon Realm, creating ripples and exposing the presence of an uninvited guest.
Naturally, since everyone had traveled quite far, giving them two thousand yuan or so was neither too much nor too little—it was just standard.
In a daze, Chu Sisi drove away from Hongfu Restaurant, entered the main road of Linhai City, and headed toward the suburban airport.
He could feel the changes in Lin Zhixia; she seemed to have slowly begun to rely on him, and now, from time to time, she would unconsciously act spoiled toward him just as she had today.
In the center of the room stood a round wooden dining table, from which the aroma of beef wafted.
The problem with Pang Tao’s eldest sister was thorny, far exceeding Chen Bin’s ability to handle. He could only have Zhao Jia inform Dr. Huang of the situation; perhaps only that old man knew how to deal with this.
Although he now deferred to Huang Zhongshi, as the captain of the mobile combat team, his strength was the most formidable of them all.
She disagreed with most of his views, but on one point, she and her parents were in agreement: if her illness could be cured, she must repay her uncle well in the future.
He used the word "invite" in a very particular way. Nan Xing suspected that this was why Li Beitang had been angry earlier, causing him to knock over the coffee.
Nan Xing’s knuckles turned white as she stared fixedly at the chaotic scene on the floor and the few servants rummaging through her room.
He was applying pressure to Wang Sichao—you were the one who invited these people, so you must provide us with an explanation.
Only Ning Bao and Shen Junshan were present, so Lingling did not bother to hide her ability to speak.
When the waves receded, the water gushing from the spiritual spring had turned into black water, tainted with a nauseating, fishy stench.
