Volume 1, Chapter 27: In Person

Zhou Lei felt his heart pounding with excitement at this moment.

It was because Lin Yu was simply too formidable!

Although the War Department was immensely powerful, since he had vowed to go through fire and water for his young master, he would march forward fearlessly!

Lin Yu saw through Zhou Lei's thoughts at a glance and couldn't help but laugh to himself: "This old fellow is truly interesting!"

The Jiangcheng War Department headquarters!

Any visiting vehicle had to stop at least one kilometer away from the warning line.

The entire thirty-kilometer radius from the warning line to the headquarters building was a restricted zone.

Posts were set up every kilometer, sentries were stationed every three hundred meters, and all were guarded by heavy firepower!

Drones patrolled the skies above.

Without authorization, outsiders were strictly forbidden from entering; violators would be severely punished according to military law, with no exceptions.

The warning line...

The hotel where the auction was held was not far from the restaurant; mainly because in Shanghai, all the good hotels were located near the river.

Tong Hua's question also gave Gu Qiao a headache. These two individuals—one was the heir to a major family, and the other was the beloved princess of the Zombie Kingdom—if word of this reached the Otherworld, it would trigger a cataclysmic earthquake.

Viewers could not grasp the emotions embedded in the food by the one eating it, but watching the food on television and trying to guess its taste was enough to make one's mouth water.

Jiang Yanqi was very happy, watching them gobble up the dishes she had cooked with a smile, as if they were the most delicious delicacies in the world.

It was Section Chief Pei who had notified her to leave the hospital and study in the capital. Now that she had returned, she naturally had to report the situation to him. Although she was currently under the supervision of Xiucai, the veteran Section Chief Pei had the most say in deciding her future.

But no one paid any attention to her. She kept talking incessantly until she was carried to the edge of the swimming pool, and amidst the laughter of the crowd, she traced a perfect arc in the air and "plop," fell into the icy water of the pool.

Although Hai Fu was still in bed, the table was close by. As the conversation revolved around him, his brow relaxed a little, and his complexion looked somewhat better.

As cattle dealers, they were experts in this trade. They could tell a good cow from a bad one at a glance, and it was precisely because they were insiders that they were so astonished.

Wu Xiang playfully bickered with Zijian. She had long since resigned herself to her fate, accepting her position as Zijian's concubine.

The situation in the Amia Continent was brewing once again. Whether they were demons and monsters or true dragons and emperors, they all had to splash around in these muddy waters—what if, just what if?

The Jin army had already breached the Eastern Capital, capturing Emperor Huizong and Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty, along with a large number of the Zhao royal family, harem concubines, nobles, and courtiers—over three thousand people in total—and escorting them north. The public and private savings in the Eastern Capital were completely emptied.

Sensing the aura of a primordial spirit, Wang Jin understood that Yan Chixia and Zhi Qiu Yiye had chosen to project their spirits.

So, when baked by the fire-element magic, a rich aroma of meat immediately spread, making many spirit beasts that had just set off without eating drool uncontrollably.

Ragnar’s palms made a sound like skin being abraded—it was the friction caused by him gripping Batista's arm tightly to prevent the limb from continuing to pierce through his chest.

Logically, when encountering such a thing, the first reaction should be to ride the bike back to the camp. But Guo Rong did not do that. Combining what had just happened with previous experiences, a series of thoughts and misgivings suddenly arose in his mind.

"This defensive magic tool is quite advanced. It seems your family is considered upper-class in the Federation," Lei Ling remarked with interest, looking at the golden shield enveloping Shen Yu.

"Centuries-old spirits, fierce," Wang Jin laughed. He had saved this liquor from the Shushan world specifically to win the favor of characters who loved to drink, and the purpose had clearly been achieved; Yan Chixia looked incredibly satisfied.

In what was clearly a life-or-death battlefield, the cruel slaughter suddenly ground to a halt due to the appearance of a spatial tunnel.

What could he do? His top-laner role might look like a fifty-fifty split at first glance, but in reality, he was being suppressed quite miserably and couldn't spare any energy to support his teammates.

The Leopard Tribe were strong individual fighters, which suited Zack's appetite perfectly. They gathered from all corners of the venue before Zack, rolling up their sleeves in preparation to show off their skills.

He looked calm, with not a hint of abnormality; his grip on the card was firm, his knuckles distinct, his fingers slender and beautiful.

Thinking of this, she reached up to tug at the string of the jade pendant around her neck, pulled it out from inside her clothes, and held it in her hand.

"Whew!" Wu Jie breathed a sigh of relief. He had realized that Zhang Xiao did not intend to kill him.

After Qi Xiuyuan left, only the sullen-faced Yu Silan remained. She turned to look at Liang Lei and spoke with some anger.

Hearing this, the chair Zhang Xiao had just raised seemed to hit a pause button; he didn't slam it down, instead glancing back toward the door.

Of course, Su Hai wasn't home either; he was out at an internet cafe with friends, playing games.

Shu Wang's heart tightened, and she quickly dialed the number. She had to ask immediately; she couldn't let her plan go to waste. She had been sitting there idly for so long, and it couldn't be for nothing.

Yinzhen saw that Ji Wanrong had gone to such great lengths, and these bright red fruits looked remarkably like tomatoes.

Abyss lay sprawled on the sofa, chewing on a toothpick with a look of satisfaction. It could be said to be very authentic, not pretentious or hypocritical in the slightest.

She was naturally a person prone to overthinking, and her health was poor. In the past, she would often be unable to eat or sleep well due to a casual remark from her sisters, causing her health to deteriorate further. Now that it concerned the one she yearned for, she was worried to the point of death.

Although Qishala was already a demigod-level dragon, she still lacked the ability to summon subordinates or kin. This was perhaps because the Platinum Dragon lineage now consisted only of Qishala.

After Wu Jiabao stepped forward to pay his respects, he didn't say much and led the two brothers to a drill ground behind the manufacturing plant. The ground was narrow from east to west and wide from north to south, measuring about 100 meters by 300 meters. The side against the mountain had no wall, while the other three sides were enclosed by cement walls about 2.5 meters high.

Zhen Lian and Xue Yao had once followed the Demon Army to the Immortal Realm, but that period was very brief. It wasn't as if there were no experts in the Immortal Realm, not to mention the many noble guests who had descended from the Upper Realm.

This was the direct reason why Dwarf Monk had pegged Su Ke's level as at least that of a Sect Master. Coupled with the execution of his sect's unique skill, the "Iron Mountain Lean," the force was extremely seasoned and domineering. If they hadn't intervened to assist between the two of them, the consequences for the buzz-cut man would likely have been more than just a simple fainting spell; the secondary damage from that collision would have been enough for him to handle.

After dinner, Empress Zhang and her two uncles and aunts chatted in the main hall, while the three siblings ran to the porch to admire the downy snow. By now, a thin layer of snow had accumulated on the ground, and the roof was slowly being covered in pure white.

Roger and Prince Robin exchanged glances and both shrugged. There was not a hint of sympathy in their eyes; after all, not even sparing the soul was the very method demons used to terrify mortals the most.

The efficiency of the Roman police was quite impressive; from entering the scene to investigate to leaving, it took less than fifteen minutes at most.

It must be said that this Miss Qingluan's way of conducting herself was somewhat similar to her master's, only with less heroism and a bit more roguishness. Still, she was quite cute.

Xu Rui's editing skills were absolutely solid. The fight scenes he edited were particularly noteworthy, and the lion dance sequence was especially brilliant.
