Chapter 45: The Scheme Succeeds

The two fidgety young men sprang up as if struck by lightning, stammering out their thanks before shuffling toward the door with matching feet.
They looked precisely like robots being pulled along by a magnet.
Before coming here, they had prepared countless topics they wanted to discuss with their savior.
Never did they imagine that their grand savior would turn out to be a little savior, leaving them momentarily unable to process the reality.
They pulled Lei Qingya out of the office with them.
Still unwilling to accept this, Lei Qingya paced back and forth in the corridor three times before turning back.

Two doctors entered and first administered hypnosis to the three young women, followed by intravenous drips.

"My loyal subjects are likely filled with curiosity about the young gentleman sitting to my right. I shall now introduce him to you all. This Young Master Zhou sitting to my right is not a native of our planet, a fact that most of you probably already guessed upon seeing his appearance."

Ling Chen and Yang Shang hurriedly piloted their flying saucer plunging down from the high altitude, swiftly arriving before the great doors of the energy secret chamber through a hidden mountain passage.

Guo Zilin spoke with utter candor. Gu Yicheng, however, wore a face full of depression, clearly unable to fathom the depths of her emotions.

At that moment, an exquisite painted boat drifted upon the lake, its window curtains gently swaying in the breeze, creating an indescribably picturesque and alluring scene.

Unlike Yuan Xiao, who was always slow to react, Yao Xiaodan did not process things belatedly. She found the series of events absurd and farcical; she wanted to cry and vent, but more than any of that, she was deeply worried about Zhou Xu's current condition.

Although Su Xinran occasionally attended parties of this nature, based on his observations, this brand's positioning was hardly to her taste. Why would she show up here?

Su Qingying went to open the door, welcoming her parents inside. He immediately served a platter of fruit and poured two cups of the health-preserving tea her parents favored, just as Su Qingying had instructed.

It is worth mentioning that Li Menglin, who had originally claimed she would also come to Zhang Dong's house next weekend, had to return to her maternal grandfather's house due to family matters and instead made arrangements with Zhang Dong to visit the following week.

Consequently, over the next two to three years, domestic resources and welfare benefits would inevitably see a decline. Ordinary people must prepare themselves for a drop in their living standards, while the wealthy need not concern themselves—their standard of living will not drop no matter what. As long as they possess sufficient wealth, they can live as though in paradise even amidst the apocalypse.

Unable to think of an ideal champion to counter Irelia and Sylas on short notice, Wang Zixu decided to leave the decision entirely up to Electrician to ponder.

Xu Zhilan glanced over. He recognized this male player; he was the one who had arrived alongside the guide right when they first entered the instance.

"Sheng Qiuyue—what a fine name! If the opportunity arises in the future, I truly hope to take in the sight of this autumn moon!" Zhang Dong said with a faint smile.

That powerful diffusion of sheer willpower commanded absolute submission; all the believers rejoiced, marveling that they had received the divine protection of the gods.

For some reason, when Yang Mingyan declared that she would obediently listen to Zhang Dong, a sudden surge of exhilaration bloomed in his chest.

Of course, the two of them would never engage in anything untoward; at most, they would exchange a few sharp words upon meeting, or else pretend not to know each other at all.

Xu Zhilan stood at Xiao Zhimiao's side, the activation of his divine-grade skill causing curse seals to ripple across his body, traced with fine golden threads.

As it happened, Ornn had chosen to build an Abyssal Mask as his first major item in this match to make the lane phase against Sylas more comfortable, lacking even a pair of cloth armor. They needed to hurry and cash in on Ornn while Graves could still deal damage to him to supplement his farm and growth.

However, apart from the best guild, the other three would still award this honor to the character who achieved it under special distinction.

Gu Rou was not Liang Fengyue. Even though she was equally curious about what gift Lin Yafei had sent to the King, she would not court death like Liang Fengyue by letting her curiosity get the better of her and privately prying into the King's gift.

"Why do you suppose that is?" Xiluo cleverly countered with a question. Back then, she had remained in Sand City solely to exact revenge for Lanshiti. Once the vengeance was fulfilled, there was no longer any reason to stay. Unfortunately, even if she told the truth, the other party might not necessarily believe it.
