Chapter 33

Even after all these years, that wish still remained. It was also the conviction that kept her in the food industry.
This time, Jiango did not drive to the company. He chose to walk instead, treating it as exercise. He had never expected that even after leaving the entertainment industry, some crazed fans would still continue following him everywhere.
Ji Xueling was just about to call Su Xiaoxiao when her own phone rang. It was Su Xiaoxiao calling. She said she had come to pay New Year’s respects to her aunt and was already at the villa gate, asking Ji Xueling to come out and let her in. Ji Xueling hurried outside and opened the villa’s main gate, whereupon Su Xiaoxiao drove straight in.
With her three thousand taels, buying a house in the capital of Eastern Tomb that had a fire wall and a heated brick bed was practically impossible. After all, such facilities existed only in the imperial palace and the residences of the great nobles! Thinking of this, Xie Liuying could not help sighing regretfully. Once she had settled into the guest room and lain beneath the covers, she looked like a contented cat.
Bai Tianlin listened to Uncle Lin’s words. Although he felt somewhat displeased, just as Uncle Lin had said, Lin You was a genius of the Lin family of the Divine Kingdom of the Fire God and the future head of the family.
The close-range strikes and combat techniques he had always criticized himself for—was this not precisely an opportunity to improve and change them?
His sincere attitude in admitting his mistake greatly satisfied Cheng Zhi, who finally stopped pursuing Zhu Yanman’s conduct from earlier.
Having struck his target in one blow, Zhao Ce refused to let the giant bear off. He stepped through the air, each footfall producing a series of sonic booms. Blood-colored flames coiled around his entire body, making him appear like a demon god, and dragging the Heaven’s Retribution Life-Severing Halberd behind him, he once again caught up with the giant bear hurtling through the air.
Before Jiang Chen’s soul was annihilated, he detonated that enormous axe. One had to know that every supreme immortal artifact possessed tremendous power and unparalleled might.
“Why are you just standing there without saying anything?” Deng Jinxie said gloomily, carrying the ingredients in her hands to the sink.
Their cultivation and strength were comparable to those of cultivators in the early stage of the Truth-Insight Realm. But in the water, after all, the giant serpent held the advantage. Its true strength was still unknown, and Chen Feng did not dare rashly enter the water to lure it out.

The river water instantly flooded into my lungs, and the sensation of suffocation struck at once. Fortunately, I held my breath immediately, snatched the respirator from the fat man’s mouth, and timely drew in a lifesaving breath of oxygen.
While the princes and marquises stood dumbfounded, Shen Tianyu also recovered from his daze, sensing the immense and wondrous power surging through his body.
With that, the two men clapped their hands together and looked at each other with broad smiles. Seeing this, Ling Xingchao felt a burning pain spread across his face, as though someone had slapped him hard. In an instant, it turned bright red.
After returning to the room, Yang Jian looked at the silent Wang Tian and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong with you? Why didn’t you say a word just now?”
Wang Tian stared at Yang Jian with a solemn expression. “Do you know the Rothschild family?”
Yang Jian shook his head blankly.
You San tore open the clothing over his left arm, took the bamboo tube that Xia Si handed him, and gulped down a mouthful of wine. He then sprayed it all over his wounded arm, produced a bottle of golden wound medicine from his person, and slowly sprinkled it over the injury.
The demonic beasts were roughly equal in strength, and Yang Jian could not determine which of them was stronger. After all, unlike humans, demonic beasts did not have cultivation levels that differed greatly from one another. What could be confirmed was that none of them were weak.
Moreover, this body was merely an incomplete avatar rather than the old demon’s true form. Nor had the old demon’s principal soul consciousness descended into this realm. Thus, he could not unleash much power through his secret arts, and was further restricted by the rules of this Divine Realm Mountain.
Therefore, even though they did not cultivate particularly diligently, their cultivation still easily surpassed that of many others.
Yet Xun Yu and Cheng Yu were now suffering in silence, utterly unable to speak before the furious Cao Cao. The only one who could get a word in, Xi Zhicai, was so excited by the possibility of resolving the food crisis in Yanzhou that he neither wanted nor intended to offer any words of persuasion.
“Alisa, which company do you intend to appoint to organize the preliminary auditions?” her assistant, Lan Ruo, asked.
In the United States, Alisa had always made such decisions herself. But after returning to the country, Gu Yan had insisted that everything had to receive her approval.
Lin Feng’s true body and avatar simultaneously employed a movement technique that fused all seven elements. They began bombarding the fire dragon, with no other target in sight—their sole target was its head.

“All right. I was confused too. Before this, I only knew how to use it; I had no idea there were so many intricacies involved,” Zhang San added with a chuckle.
At this point, Chen Changsheng stopped. He had originally intended to have Li Xiang carry the grain to the parade ground while he went to rescue more people.
After several stone monsters were blasted back in succession, they temporarily stopped advancing. They could think for themselves and knew how to seek fortune and avoid disaster. Only then did Captain Hu order the troops stationed there to retreat some distance, while signaling the soldiers who were aiming their guns at Wang Xuan and the others to stand down.
“Old Pi, I hear you like visiting nightclubs and picking up girls… Supposedly, one of the main reasons Xiong Yicai brought you down the mountain last time was that you were still a virgin. Is that true?” Gu Le took a drag of his cigarette and asked blandly, his eyes fixed on Pigu with an expression that was difficult to read.
“Why?” A cold light shot from Hu Wanyue’s eyes directly toward Hu Meier, as though, if Hu Meier failed to provide a satisfactory explanation, she too would be bound and thrown into the dungeon.
Zhou Lin had not yet shown himself. He had merely slipped into a shop beside the cross street, then slowly removed the covering around his hairstyle. His original appearance was better anyway. In any case, he was already being hunted.
In an instant, the chill grew a hundredfold. She felt as though her body weighed a thousand jun, unable to move even a finger! Her spiritual sense clearly enveloped the nameplate, yet at this moment she could not inject it with the slightest power. Even the soul pearl was beyond her ability to shatter.
The light of two new Ultramen appeared, but what use was it? This was the mental world controlled by Gatanothor, and their meager radiance was nowhere near enough to contend with the Dark Ruler.
Their swordsmanship was swift and nimble. After one sword thrust, they suddenly changed direction. Sword lights crisscrossed like a profusion of flowers in the rain, then, with a sudden whistle, the two beams seemed to merge into one and shot toward the face of the Guanyin statue like lightning.
