Volume 1, Chapter 56: Tit for Tat
"Well, look who finally decided to show up. You're quite early, aren't you, young president?"
Seeing Lu Yanzhi arrive fashionably late, Cao Yangzhi glanced at him and sneered sarcastically.
By the time he tossed and turned his way back to the dormitory, it was already one in the morning. The moment he pushed the door open, he was met by six pairs of eyes staring at him so intensely that it made his skin crawl.
Jian Man also cast an approving look at Hailin. Noticing that Hailin seemed a bit distracted, Mu Tugui quickly spoke up.
The old night watchman felt a blur before his eyes, as if a shadow had just flashed past. Staring blankly at the empty, dimly lit intersection in the distance, his scalp tinged with numbness, a chill ran through his entire body, and goosebumps broke out all over his skin.
Instead of saying that IG's laners needed the jungler's help, it was more accurate to say they detested being targeted by the enemy jungler. If neither jungler engaged in ganks, the IG players would undoubtedly have a much more comfortable game.
Mo Yu checked his pulse, took out a pill designed to heal internal injuries, and fed it to the old beggar, waiting quietly for him to regain consciousness on his own.
To his surprise, he bit right into Nocturne's spell shield. The Renekton skillfully used the first part of his E to clip Nocturne, then retreated back under his tower with the second part of E. Nocturne chose to follow up, but Akali simply used Flash and her R to effortlessly claim Renekton's head.
In the market, ordinary people assumed these medicines were genuine. Since they were supposedly real, they naturally chose to buy the cheaper ones.
"Alright... wait for me, I'm on my way right now." Tian Yu said before hanging up the phone, leaping into his car, and speeding straight toward Emperor's Glory.
Mo Yu smiled awkwardly, deftly dodging Du Xiaoxiao's Nine-Yin White Bone Claws with a sideways shift. He sat down at the desk and casually picked up the personnel files one by one to review them.
Reaching a realm like that of Our Lady of Wudang meant she must have attained an immensely profound mastery of the Law of Slaughter, likely comprehending it to the point of perfection and the absolute pinnacle.
The Tuoshe Demonic Flame ranked first among the Heavenly Flames. Since the Emperor's Soul Seal could counter the Fire Slave mark it left behind, dealing with the Golden Emperor blazing flame would be equally effortless.
If one had to pinpoint the difference between the two situations, it was perhaps that between Tian Piqiang and King Si of Qin, there was no King Wei of Qi. In any case, the warfare of the Warring States period—evolving from the ritualistic battles of the Spring and Autumn period to the deceit-is-fair-in-war mentality of the present—was vividly and thoroughly embodied in this very battle.
"Big Brother Fisherman, I want to learn how to fish from you." Qin Haonan threw caution to the wind, peppering the fisherman with questions.
Aside from him, another boy named Asaba had left an even deeper impression on her, though Judy did not see him today.
"Boom!" Suddenly, a fierce, chilling gust of wind swept in from behind them. Before they even realized what had struck them, they found themselves inside the true core of the Third Prison. It was a resplendent, magnificent hall, and they stood at the entrance, utterly at a loss, for the moment they stepped inside, the massive doors behind them slammed shut with a thunderous roar.
"Let's call it a day." Han Dong rose to his feet, entirely unconcerned with what Song Sicheng might be thinking. Song Sicheng was left bewildered; just a few moments ago, this young man had seemed somewhat interested, so why had he completely flipped his attitude and turned hostile in the span of a few seconds?
I didn't know the exact location of our village, but I told the Yaksha that it bordered Dawang, and even mentioned something about a forbidden zone.
Jiang Yuxue and I are a couple from the very beginning. As the saying goes, 'Do not cast aside the wife who shared your poverty.' How could I send her to her death for no reason at all? Besides, as you yourself said, her crimes do not warrant death. I don't understand why you are so insistent on making her die?
"Borrowing might from the Heavenly Generals!" Mu Hentian shouted in a low voice, and the four Heavenly Generals instantly burst apart. An invisible pressure permeated the air, ruthlessly bearing down upon Tang Yueyue. Under this oppressive force, ghosts and gods trembled, demons froze, and the heavens and earth lost their color.
