Chapter 54

"I think I'd better go home for dinner." With a murmur, one of them walked away, and the others followed suit one after another. A few idlers with nothing better to do lingered at the entrance for a while, strolling back and forth.

Fame and fortune combined—this is what countless people dream of throughout their lives. Beautiful aspirations can easily intoxicate the mind. After capturing the Yunlin County branch without a single drop of blood, the Green Gang now wanted to strike while the iron was hot and take over the second floor of the branch.

"Forget it, I should go and check out the situation first. If anything seems wrong, it won't be too late to run then." After hesitating for a long time, Su Zhe still couldn't make up his mind, ultimately deciding to observe the situation first before making a choice.

If Yu Chen wanted to shake him off, it would have been effortless given his martial arts skills and speed. Besides, Yu Chen had no reason to bring him here in the first place; it would have been much easier if he had simply stopped answering his calls from the moment he vanished.

Shao Yu also snapped out of his daze, saying somewhat blankly, "She hasn't woken up yet, but you can go wake her." After saying this, Shao Yu scratched his head and walked away.

Shao Yu flashed an OK gesture. Du Wenwen watched the two of them and shook her head helplessly, while Cheng Jiao walked somewhat dazedly into her bedroom and closed the door to rest.

Not taking the child away wasn't because he didn't want to, but because taking him along was truly troublesome. First of all, the child was crying; secondly, if he choked him to death to stop the crying, wouldn't Luo Yun turn the entire Yunmo General's Mansion upside down? Catching a glimpse of someone approaching out of the corner of his eye, Mu Shui didn't have time to dwell on it and quickly fled. Getting caught here was no game; finding some cover for himself was the top priority.

"Aren't you going to learn martial arts from me? Let your master check your physical condition first to see if you have the makings of a good martial artist." Ling Chen put away his mischievous smile, lowered his voice, and said with a completely serious expression.

Moreover, Lin Xuan had a master craftsman like Beetle. In a little over a month, he would undoubtedly reach the level of an apprentice-grade craftsman, and by then, forging a few demonic crystals with extra damage would be no problem at all.

As the old saying goes, "Laymen watch the excitement, insiders watch the technique." Faced with such a formation, the older brothers could tell at a glance that this battle array was advancing and retreating simultaneously.

When Fang Yusheng heard Li Jingyi's words, his brow furrowed slightly. Then, Yi Yi's following words made him agree instantly without even a moment's thought.

Hanyu didn't know how she had made friends in just half a month, but that wasn't the focal point right now.

Just as she reached the door of the shop, the glass door was pushed open, and a man wearing a duck-tongue cap bumped into her.

Wujiang was the most perfect emotional vessel: extraversion E, agreeableness S, and stress-resistance S. He could channel mental therapy sessions and even act as a substitute to bear emotional locks. If the "Sharp Sword" was a modification in terms of physique and combat capability, then the "Scabbard" was the modification on the mental and personality levels.

That was probably the reason. Hanyu carried a pleasant fragrance of orchid grass, which explained why whatever the Great-Grandmother had done caused her to feel dizzy, suffocated, and deeply distressed whenever she smelled that scent.

"Damn it, Chen's phone is dead and turned off." Song Mingheng hung up the call, then searched for Nie Moxing's number and dialed it out.

Su Wushuang watched as Gu Xi quietly allowed the doctor to examine his body, but her gaze remained fixed on her, her face filled with awkwardness.

The red-haired rider quickly accepted the order. A few minutes later, the red-haired man happily delivered two bags of hand-grabbed pancakes to the hospital room.

The crew's environment was also very friendly. After all, this was Director Xi Yu's team, and given Director Xi Yu's character, he would never allow anyone who ate inside and outside to exist in his team.

Chizao was such an obedient good girl that the number of times she had been to a KTV could be counted on one's fingers. Not understanding much about these things, she simply followed obediently behind Wei Xiao, leaving all arrangements to him.

"Young Master, the Marquis is right down in the subterranean palace. Please go down by yourself; your subordinate will keep watch outside," Jiang Bailyong said in a deep voice.

With that, he gently pushed aside Yun Lan, who was awkwardly kissing him, and his eyes met the familiar, dissatisfied expression on Yun Lan's face.

On this day, Yang Jian was passing through an immortal marketplace and felt a gnawing hunger in his stomach, so he ordered some food at an inn. To his surprise, he overheard a piece of news that made his heart split and his blood run cold.

Thus, this could also prove that Marley's national form was militaristic. Because of the threat posed by these Titans, the entire country devoted all its efforts to developing heavy industry, constantly innovating military weaponry precisely so they could eliminate the Titans using modern warfare.

"Very well!" Xin Xin said with a faint smile, reaching into her storage bracelet to retrieve over a dozen magic-cultivation artifacts—low-grade, mid-grade, and high-grade alike—and handing them all over to Lin Shijue.

His Majesty the Emperor felt that his suggestion made a lot of sense and agreed to add two judges. Prime Minister Langley, filled with joy, assumed His Majesty would award the remaining two slots to him, but unexpectedly, the Emperor had the Empress appoint one judge and designated the Empire's chief mage, Philip, as the other.

Following this disastrous defeat, the once-flourishing, fire-boiling-oil era of the Daojun Emperor's reign was instantly riddled with thousands of holes, leading directly to the later Humiliation of Jingkang and the destruction of the state and home.

The Four Great Divine Realms were the center of the primordial world, bearing the boundless fortune and karmic merit of heaven and earth. In past years, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin tribes, the Lich tribes, the human race, the Xuanmen, and Confucianism had all flourished greatly here.

After Rod Reiss finished speaking, Historia and Eren found it somewhat difficult to accept, especially Eren, whose memories of that time had just awakened. He now knew for a fact that it was indeed his own father who had eaten Frieda, and that he himself had eaten his own father.

Having said that, Yun Lan handed the other two pills to Liunian Mingyue and Li Yanjue, keeping for herself the red and green one containing the extremely adorable sea-clan blood essence that Li Yanjue had specially found for her.

"Li... Tao." Deng Yuhao trembled as he called out Li Tao's name, so startled he almost forgot about Ling Xuanzhi, who was still in grave danger.

The moon hung like a hook in the high sky, the autumn wind blew bleakly, and the entire Nebula City was filled with an aura of stern killing. Fresh blood stained the ground, sorrow infected every heart, and the once-prosperous city had now been reduced to ruins. Whether cultivators or mortals, their moods were filled with sorrow and helplessness.

Liang Mu's body suddenly transformed into a ball of white flame, taking the shape of a blade of light. Sima cried out in panic, "Such strong spiritual power, this is bad." Everyone realized that Liang Mu's attack was likely unavoidable.

"Hey, what is wrong with the two of you?! In the time it took me to cook a meal, how did you manage to start arguing? Zhouzhou, Wei Xiao finally managed to come home so early, stop bothering him and hurry up and go do your homework." Lan Yin instinctively wanted to persuade the one who was easiest to appease.
