Chapter Forty-Eight: Young Lady, You...

“Master, I’m back! Master, are you inside?”
At the rear mountain sect leader’s residence, Su Changling stepped onto the path and immediately raised her voice expressionlessly.
Knowing that Ling Chenzi, unreliable as he was, was most likely preparing for a nap at this hour, she even “considerately” kicked open the heavy courtyard door.
The yellowed autumn leaves on the old tree by the door fell in large numbers from her kick. Cheng Yingxue looked at her master’s decisive, efficient, and unwavering action.
“Xiao Ran! You belong to the Red Sect! Are you planning to betray the sect?” the substitute overlord shouted furiously.
“Hmph! And you too!” Gu Yunfeng snorted coldly, his murderous gaze sweeping toward Lü Changkong, seemingly unwilling to let him off either.
The AKB48 members always felt something strange whenever Kagawa Yuki entered their theater and dressing room. Fortunately, Kagawa Yuki’s personality was nothing like Oshima Yuko’s uncle-like demeanor.
Suddenly, the eldest senior brother’s belly bounced back, the rebound force knocking Lu Fan backward three steps.
“Xiao Chen is a seventh-grade alchemist. Could he be someone from the Immortal Realm’s Pill Hall?” the Demon Lord thought silently, then shook his head and vanished in a flash.
In the middle of the night, Ye Xian summoned the madam—the corpulent monster—and produced a superior mysterious-grade treasure to exchange for money.
“What’s going on? Has the Tianyu Tribe suddenly developed a conscience?” Ding Hao wondered. After waiting more than ten days, he still hadn’t heard of any punishment against him.
All this passed through Li Jie’s mind like flowing clouds and rushing water. Before the gleaming curved blade could strike his chest, his thoughts reacted in the blink of an eye.
Elder Suman lightly tapped her fingers on the table; the rings on her fingers clinked crisply against the surface.
About four thousand Arab soldiers from the rear guard perished almost to the last man, with only a few hundred severely wounded and incapacitated dragged back. Including the cost of a day’s fierce assault, the Arabs lost nearly six to seven thousand men in total.
Seeing the black horse so docilely allowing her to touch it and even sticking out its tongue to lick her hand, Duoji’s eyes widened in astonishment.
The hall was silent, not a sound to be heard. Time seemed to freeze at that moment, turning the scene into a permanent still.
Watching Bai Li Changhong bow slightly, Lin Xiang’s tightly furrowed brows eased a bit, the terrifying aura slowly withdrew. The entire arena fell calm once more, as if nothing had happened, everything seeming effortlessly serene.
Especially when it came to caring for and serving others, he was second to none; no one dared claim first place.
For a casino to grow large, it not only needed an overwhelmingly powerful underworld backing but also required legitimate support.
“Your Majesty, where are you headed?” Dongfang Youyu feigned a chance encounter, flashing his signature smile in greeting.
Fuming, Ji Yun began cursing. This bastard was exactly the type who forces you to leaveI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
