Chapter 65: No Most Thrilling, Only More Thrilling
Subei answered in a weak tone, almost sounding as if she were acting spoiled, which instantly snapped Lin Wei, sitting dazed on the bed, back to reality.
Subei did not mention that she had gone out of her way to get it, as the process was not what mattered; what mattered was that Lin Wei had a habit of eating a pudding after dinner.
"Then go ahead and be busy, and take good care of yourself." Tang Feng's words carried a hint of concern, yet his tone lacked any actual warmth. With that, he hung up the phone.
With hope kindled in his heart, every step felt considerably lighter. A serene smile surfaced on Jing Ruoran's face as he took a deep breath of the fresh air, surrounded by boundless desolation.
As for Dream Back to Heaven, it was quite peculiar. Seeming thoroughly content with holding the hundredth rank, he never challenged anyone, and naturally, no one challenged him either. Thus, that hundredth rank had long ceased to be a mere symbol of a standing, but rather became a symbol of Dream Back to Heaven himself.
Subei frowned, yet she was utterly helpless against Lin Wei. She knew full well that this matter should have ended right here. Since Lihong had chosen such a way to end his life, the affair truly ought to be concluded, but stubbornly, Lin Wei refused to let it go.
Two streams of chilling aura flowed slowly over Chu Liangchen's body, intersecting in the empty space between them. Neither side took another step forward.
There was none of the shyness Mr. Nitzsche had anticipated on her face; instead, she wore a condescending posture. This sudden shift caught the German man, accustomed to dominating every situation, somewhat off guard, and he hastily withdrew his hand.
Dongfang Ji had not yet reacted, but upon seeing Xuanxuan's appearance, it felt as though she was calling out to him—yet Xuanxuan had clearly claimed she knew how to swim.
Bai Qiusheng felt even more troubled. Although both of his sons had explicitly expressed their desire to dismiss Lin Feng, Lin Feng was, after all, a bodyguard personally hired by Bai Muxue's own father. Even as the head of the Bai family managing affairs, he could not simply fire someone on a whim; at the very least, he had to consult Bai Muxue's father first.
As for the lie concerning the Super Holy Water, Li Yaling was naturally well aware of the truth, which was why he had never entertained any notions regarding the so-called Super Holy Water from start to finish.
Niu Kaishan had no desire to speak at all. With a shake of his bull horns, with a sharp crack, four purple lightning bolts as thick as a person's arm shot forth, striking toward Ying Qiong suspended in mid-air, as if he longed to roast her alive.
To be honest, that Da Genzi could encounter Hestia in such a manner truly exceeded his expectations.
A wave of excitement washed over Long Fei. Although he knew he possessed the strength to pass the warrior assessment, arriving at the inner courtyard ten days early would also allow him an earlier glimpse into its inner workings.
"Yes, her name is Bai Muxue. I heard she seems to be an intern who just graduated from high school," the publicity manager nodded subserviently.
Lu Xueyao spoke with an utterly solemn expression, and no sooner had her words fallen than Wu Xiaoyan nearly spat out the food she was eating.
Old Madam Zheng and the mother of the second young master of the Zheng family were supported out to identify the body, and upon catching sight of Zheng Er's corpse, both let out miserable shrieks and fainted on the spot.
Upon returning to the post station, Lord Hu also learned that Jiang Chuan had not returned since heading to the Eastern Palace, and that his entire retinue of guards and attendants had likewise been taken away to the Eastern Palace.
When Long Fei managed to make out the dark shadow clearly, he realized it was actually the tail of a giant snake. Its pitch-black body was covered in shimmering scales, and the entire tail was roughly the size of a water vat.
Zhang Xinping also perceived the hesitation of Chu Tian's boss, so he continued to fan the flames by saying, "Aren't you afraid that one day he will climb over your head?" Chu Tian's boss was now rendered speechless by Zhang Xinping's provocation.
"..." Everyone was left speechless. Damn it! Raiding a dungeon with 6 people when 10 were locally required might not strictly be a difficult task, but it ought to be at the Bronze rank! Suddenly, the system prompt announcing their entry into the Platinum-tier Floating Temple rang out, leaving everyone both speechless and helpless, forced to ride the tiger and push forward.
The reason for this stemmed from the very beginning of Yu Le and Hua Luoli's mission, when Hua Luoli had spoken those words to Yu Le.
The second soul ring beside Wu Hao lit up, and immediately a layer of golden light enveloped his body. Then, he charged straight toward the ferocious bear, attempting to meet brute force with brute force.
Zhou Huiru had originally planned to attend her class reunion, but Xue Wusuan was rarely back, and she did not want to waste a single second, so right now she truly had no desire to go.
Old Man was like a tank, charging forward recklessly. With a fierce stomp of his single foot against the ground, the earth instantly collapsed beneath him, and borrowing that momentum, he smashed every single obstacle along his path into smithereens.
Perhaps, as far as Yu Le was concerned, there was no doubt that his train of thought here was indeed stretching a bit too far; however, judging by the current circumstances, Yu Le was actually not wrong.
If the white-robed elder chose to give up at this moment, it meant the others would follow suit. Should the white-robed elder return with his companions under such conditions, the punishment inflicted by the organization would fall upon every single member of the team.
"Hearing you put it that way, I understand. It's just that such an outcome represents a loss for all those major factions, and the fact that they can endure it leaves me somewhat astonished," Mu Liu remarked as well.
Nie Peixiao felt he could no longer hold it in. If he did not clear up the past between Lady Chuxiu and Helian Qi tonight, he was bound to suffer through a sleepless night of torment. He knew full well that this was none of his business, nor did he have any right to inquire... Yet he could not help himself, utterly unable to simply brush it off.
"Then mother, tell Xiang'er why you are so terribly angry." Seeing that Lu Erniang's mood had improved significantly, Lu Xiang'er hastily pressed for the reason.
After Ran Tianqi's younger half-brother, Ran Tianyu, took power, in order to secure the support of the Sichuan Prince's estate, he proved incapable of suppressing the mutiny and conveniently handed over the thousand-odd rebellious troops stationed at Fengjie to Zhu Pingjin under the guise of "contributing troops."
