Chapter 40

Fortunately, Li Zhuo was not in any particular hurry to buy a luxury cruise ship; it was merely a sudden, whimsical idea.

Ma Dong sneered three times, entirely unconcerned that the other party might be playing tricks. He directly boarded Dream's chariot and left Jingzhou City.

"Gu Yuan, are you really planning to return to the place where you volunteered to teach? You just brought Chuangtian Technology back from the brink of death—don't you feel your blood boiling? This is a situation you turned around with your own hands," Yuan Hai said.

Although Yan Zhang did not fully understand, he figured that since it was taught by his master, it must be beneficial without any harm. Therefore, he diligently memorized the teachings and sought guidance from his master whenever he encountered something he could not comprehend. Seeing that he was naturally gifted and intelligent, Master Dabei provided extra guidance during his lectures.

As for the other three major families and sects, it was estimated that it would not take long for them to catch wind of the news and follow suit.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Lin Mengshan underwent a series of examinations, and now they were just waiting for the test results.

Ma Dong directly took it and slipped the tactical spy-device onto his arm, given that its exterior resembled a simple wristband.

Ma Dong pulled her into his arms, gently rocked her back and forth, and whispered a few sweet nothings before escorting Bai Liuxi back to the restaurant and leaving.

With this thought in mind, Wang Jie's gaze toward Lin Yun gradually brightened, and the wariness he held in his heart toward Lin Yun diminished significantly.

Hearing this, Chu Yi did not answer. He merely took a calm sip of tea and then stood up.

The two "Devourers" fired a barrage for a while before slowly marching toward Xiao Ming and the others.

Although she wanted to complain about the bizarre relationship she currently had with her old man, Totori still found herself yearning for the prospect of teasing the Führer-chan. That time would surely be a happy, stable, and endlessly nostalgic period in her memory.

Jinqing and her two companions in the main hall of the Renrun Tang finally welcomed Manager Qiao. The selling price far exceeded Jinqing's expectations. As the three of them rejoiced over their good fortune, Manager Qiao promised that any medicinal herbs their family produced in the future could be sent over, and he would buy them all.

However, Miet at this moment harbored no such worries. He was suppressing the faint excitement within his heart, patiently observing the positions and numbers of the remaining guards around the rear hall, waiting for the opportunity to accomplish that mission where danger and opportunity coexisted equally.

"With a senior brother who is so unfathomably brilliant, how could she not know?" Su Zige said rather sarcastically, not caring at all what Gao Mohan nearby might think.

Lu Lingxue made a face at Xiao Ming and whispered, "Treat me to lunch!" With that, she closed the door and walked out.

"Young Master Gao flatters me." Xing Ruogu's expression returned to its usual detachment, maintaining his breezy and effortless demeanor.

After Jinqing broke off her engagement with the Duke's Manor, the servants' attitudes toward her reverted to how they had been when she first arrived at the Yuan family. Jinqing paid them no mind, walking straight through the main gate toward the main courtyard.

Seeing this scene, Murong Haoxuan could not help but sigh repeatedly in his heart. Feeling utterly helpless, his expression turned exceptionally desolate.

Zhang Yi seemed to have anticipated this situation long ago; therefore, a ring of electrical arcs immediately surged around his body, shielding him completely. Following that, he grabbed out with five fingers straight toward the face of the Gale Eagle.

Agu'er unexpectedly failed to show up here, a detail that took Luo Chen somewhat by surprise as a drunken young man turned his body around to face him.

Coming over to handle business—besides, truly formidable sales representatives were always those who remained after surviving the cruelest trials and tribulations.

Based on these reactions, they ultimately decided to reduce the number of screenings. This method had always been Golden Harvest's primary metric for gauging whether a movie was popular.

Even President Hu, who had pulled strings through numerous connections, failed to gather enough cash and was forced to dilute his own shares to expand the platform's strength.

In fact, this point was just as true for Charles. If Lelouch and his companions succeeded, Charles's ultimate trump card for a comeback would be the World of C.

Sun Wukong looked at the dark-haired, burly man lying on the ground. He had originally intended to wait for him to get back up, but he never expected that once the man fell, he wouldn't be getting up again.

Seeing their spotlight instantly stolen away by Zhao Qian, the expressions of the several male guests turned rather unsightly. However, being people accustomed to grand occasions, they naturally did not show it on the surface; only slight awkwardness lingered on their faces.

The Seven Divine Weapons—Heavenly Duel, Heavenly Sin, Hero Sword, Fire-Scaled Sword, Heavenly Blade, Greedy Wolf, and Astonishing Silence—were the weapons destined to slay the dragon. Yun He had never even considered the Heavenly Duel, Hero Sword, and Fire-Scaled Sword. The remaining ones were the Heavenly Blade and Greedy Wolf, which were Po Jun's weapons later on, though Yun He was not particularly fond of them.

"Wait a moment. We have marched a long way, and our troops are utterly exhausted. If we enter the city now in this state of complete fatigue, even if we manage to break through, it would be no different from marching to our deaths!" Taigong Wang stepped forward and said.

Qing Rang gave a wry smile. It was precisely because she would not blame him that he had to offer his congratulations in person. Since he treated her so well, how could she let herself ignore the awkwardness?

He leaped straight up from the ground, stretched out his right hand, and drew forth an axe radiating black mist, slashing directly toward the divine beast glowing with golden light.

Ruoxi lowered her gaze to gaze into the clear tea. Wisps of hot steam rose from the tea, blurring the reflection of her figure upon its surface. A sudden sigh arose within Ruoxi's heart: this Yingning Prince's Mansion truly harbored hidden mysteries; not only Yingning Prince himself, but even Ruan Xiyan seemed to harbor secrets.
