Chapter 55

After getting out of the car, we hurried toward the mourning hall. A thin, tall man walked out from inside. He had a fair complexion, and his hair was slicked back with pomade, giving him the air of a high-quality urban gentleman.

Meanwhile, Gu Yuena, as a member of the dragon clan and a type of beast, possessed an innate forewarning of danger.

In the Star Luo Imperial Family, the lips of the Dai family's ancestor quivered slightly. Even with the strength of a Super Douluo, he could not suppress the terror rising in his heart.

At present, the consort with the highest rank in the palace was Jiang Heng; it was simply impossible to elevate another casually and provoke universal resentment.

Flanard's face also turned pale. Upon hearing the name Chen Xin, he immediately realized who it was.

It could be said that back then, she only needed to show the slightest bit of reluctance, and she could undoubtedly have shattered the Sea God's chances of ever achieving divinity.

Towering ancient trees and chunks of bluestone earth seemed to be pulled by a colossal suction force, instantly tearing away from the ground and surging wildly into the high altitude from all directions, blotting out the sky.

Whether the little one in her belly heard it or not, it threw a punch right back at her in response, making her grimace in pain as she instantly felt that life was becoming unbearable.

Li Shifang's words were already crystal clear: since the cadets wished to fight, they, as mentors, ought not to overprotect or excessively interfere.

Although Jin County lacked a strong garrison, the magistrate could not simply open the city gates immediately—that was a capital offense.

The other party was a being of celestial and divine stature, even if it was merely a dying physical body with a heavily damaged soul. This was a terrifying existence he had never encountered before, nor had he ever imagined he would come into contact with.

He had to answer Liu Quan's question, but as for Li Xinru's inquiry, Lu Chen felt no need to answer. So what if he didn't know? This wasn't an exam, and she hadn't said she would do anything to him if he couldn't answer. He would just say he didn't know—what could she possibly do to him?

However, just as he mentally cried out that heaven was forsaking him, the cave at the center of the dragon skeleton erupted with an unimaginable suction force, swallowing up every single bone and corpse in sight until not a single one remained. It was only then that they narrowly escaped with their lives.

As a result, those missing pieces of jewelry were found right inside Miss Qin's bundle, and someone even testified that Miss Qin had previously visited that young lady's room.

"Hu Qiu could not have dug so many tunnels and caves all by himself; he must have hired villagers to do the digging, and then silenced them by killing them once the deed was done." Huo Chen's expression grew solemn. He had never imagined that besides being greedy for money, Hu Qiu was also so ruthless and cruel. After inspecting several of the skeletons and finding that they had all been poisoned to death, he felt even more uneasy.

"This is not a dragon, but a serpent, a terrifying serpent!" Ji Yuchen trembled inwardly. This massive snake was actually several miles long—something he had never even heard of, let alone witnessed.

This discovery left Ji Yuchen pleasantly surprised. In the next moment, he directly unleashed a Primordial Five Elements Boundless Escape Technique, rushing straight toward a Heavenly Dao Seventh Heaven expert, while simultaneously mobilizing his utmost soul power to strike down fiercely.

The presence or absence of Chen Long made an immediate, palpable difference, and with Matri also entering the pitch, AC Milan threw all tactical caution to the wind and pressed forward with their entire team.

"Understood!" Pepe replied. Watching Nangong Han's retreating back, she felt a rather strange ache in her heart. She glanced at her phone to check Yu Feng's number, then looked back at Ye Qiqi and let out an involuntary, quiet sigh.

Seeing the Time Butterfly ahead plunging into complete chaos, Su Bai's expression changed drastically, for the massive turmoil in the rear had directly affected the front as well.

At that moment, the commentator, who had been dazed for a long time, finally flipped to Su Bai's profile and hurriedly explained: "Everyone, please do not misunderstand. This competition strictly prohibits the hiring of external ringers. Based on the information we have obtained, Su Bai is indeed not an outside ringer, but a genius from Kangcheng."

However, once it reached the second stage, even an abundant supply of fresh blood would only prevent their condition from deteriorating further, rather than restoring them to their original state.

Yi Ju'an and Xiang Wan prepared to leave, stepping into the hospital room to bid farewell to Shen Yunran, while Ding Hai did not enter.

Although Shi Ran could not quite put her finger on the exact nature of their relationship, it was definitely not as sordid as Luo Wei had described.

Ding Hai sat in place, staring blankly at the arm exposed by his rolled-up sleeve, fixing his gaze on the scar that had already blended seamlessly with his flesh.

Because in the past, whenever she got angry with Jun Chuse, Jun Chuse would always transfer money to her to coax her into calming down, or send her countless shopping links and tell her to pick whatever she wanted while he paid the bill.

Overall, he looked like a formidable monster brimming with explosive energy, resembling a natural-born killing machine.

Afterward, the three of them conferred together and unanimously decided on their next course of action: they would strike tonight, leaving the enemy no room to catch their breath.

Ye Wenqin flicked his left hand a few times in succession, sealing the captive's cultivation base, and then tossed him right in front of Gu Ke.

The temperature continued to climb higher and higher, until Fu Dudu could no longer bear it and slowly collapsed.

Sensing the surrounding gazes—some angry, some puzzled, and others simply watching the show—Fu Dudu instinctively shrank her neck and glared angrily at Yu Shiyi, the culprit walking ahead.

Now that all the guests had arrived, it was time to deal with these "small fries." Su Bai initiated a "pre-battle mobilization." Besides, if he didn't announce the attack soon, Xia Zihan would definitely make a move on him. Based on the flirtatious glances Su Bai had just received, the Great Demon King had a hundred reasons to "destroy" him.

After finally managing to awaken Xue Wushuang, it proved to be a fleeting moment. After a brief exchange of a few sentences, Xue Wushuang vanished from his sight once again.

Of course, the Mizuki here would not do such a thing, but if it were someone like Asura: Russell—someone who would stop at nothing to grow stronger—he might genuinely destroy the world.

Before Theresa led the Dawn Empire to the pinnacle of a centralized regime, she would remain the spokesperson for justice and righteousness on the prime material plane. However, if she insisted on walking down this dark path to the end, she would ascend to the peak only to step onto a path completely contrary to the tide of history, ultimately degrading step by step into a reactionary.

Yet, though she comforted herself with such thoughts in her heart, she tossed and turned all night, utterly unable to find sleep.

If so, Fengxing would only trigger a conditional mandatory takeover bid, and Tencent could still employ various tactics during the offer period to obstruct Fengxing's tender offer, ensuring that Fengxing's shareholding ratio could never exceed 50%, ultimately causing the bid to fail.

This movie was not a bowl of comforting chicken soup, and chicken soup could not solve all problems—just like that truth we only comprehend after hitting our heads against the wall thousands of times in life: thinking you can do it doesn't make it true; everyone else has to believe you can do it, for it to be true.

Her aunt's family background was not particularly good, but it was still more affluent than her own family's, at least to the extent that they could always have enough to eat.

Xue Fangfei's childhood nickname was A Li, and Jiang Li had the single character "Li" as her given name. Perhaps due to this predestined affinity in the dark, she took the place of this pitiful young lady and returned once more to the city of Yanjing.
