Chapter 58
Although she did not witness anything overly affectionate, a sour feeling still welled up in her heart as she watched the two of them chatting and laughing as they walked out of the room.
The large horde of rebel troops, previously hidden in the shadows, were now led by their generals, charging excitedly toward the wide-open city gates.
If one also counted the members of the Xiao clan stationed at Baifu Mountain, the total number of members with Qi Refining Layer Nine cultivation in the Xiao clan was likely in the double digits.
Instead of going shopping first, he went to a chain hair salon next to the mall to get a haircut before walking into the men's clothing section on the second floor of the mall.
Walking to the center of the courtyard, Lin Ya glanced at a pile of gravel nearby, the largest of which were about the size of a thumb. She walked over to the pile and counted out thirty pebbles, neither more nor less.
Judging by the current market craze, in areas above the second-tier city level, a single regional agent simply could not swallow the entire market. The remaining market vacancies were destined to benefit incoming competitors.
Meanwhile, those around him who had drunk the soup had already collapsed, and it was impossible to know when they would wake up.
However, the moment they spotted Yu Ze, their expressions all changed. Filled with extreme terror, they screamed and fled in all directions.
"Go ask the government? You expect the Japanese to go ask the government and see if they can find anything out! If the Japanese could find out, would we still need to give him a hundred silver dollars? If this isn't evidence of collaborating with the enemy, then what is? Team Leader Jiang, care to explain?" Shen Qianhao said sternly.
Among the people at the table, aside from having dealt with Qu Zhenghua, he did not know anyone else and only had vague impressions of them.
Yet, under these circumstances, Lin Jiangbei could not afford to hesitate or be ambiguous. He believed that if he did not step forward, the current situation would never be resolved quickly.
Today, having finally encountered someone immune to being hacked to death, they naturally burrowed into the other person's body like creatures finding their destined match in life. The body was only so small after all, and the skeletal areas were pitifully few.
Lin Pingzhi instinctively wanted to step forward to investigate. However, the moment he lifted his foot, he cautiously paused, because at that very split second, his instincts sensed an elusive sense of danger.
Not staying long, Ximen Chuixue hurried back to the Qi State overnight, hoping to still make it in time for the grand tournament.
23mm caliber bullets streaked outward, driving forward with an impact force exceeding the speed of sound.
By the end of April, news of the grand army's complete victory spread throughout the capital. The Liao army had suffered a disastrous defeat, agreeing to retreat five hundred miles, offering fifty thousand head of cattle and sheep annually as tribute, and signing a hundred-year non-aggression peace treaty with the Celestial Empire.
"By capturing the acquired forces between heaven and earth, one can calculate how many powerhouses have condensed the embryonic form of the Dao Fruit and embarked on their own paths."
"What do you think you are? This man is a curse of a beauty, someone capable of blocking your entire life, do you even know that?"
Buddhism was one of the three major religions on that azure planet, with its origin and birthplace both located there; it was simply impossible for it to appear in this place.
Furthermore, she locked her hands directly around his neck, pecking away with the posture of a woodpecker.
"Hehe, true, I, Fatty... wait, why do I feel like you're insulting me?" The fatty instantly wanted to retort, but after a second thought, he decided that being a villain wasn't so bad after all, since he had just had a blast.
In the cloudless blue sky, a vast number of white clouds suddenly appeared, forming a stairway suspended in the void.
After a few breaths, the fatty finally darted out from some corner, clutching two jars of wine in his arms.
Eva raised her chin without showing the slightest weakness. Though she said nothing, her sheer defiance was visible to any blind person.
First, sitting in his position, it was unwise to get too close to the influential aristocratic clans. It was not out of fear of the Emperor's suspicion, but because those fellows were far too scheming. Li Chengqian did not want to become a sword in anyone's hand, being used or finding himself trapped in a dilemma, nor did he wish to end up like the descendants of the Sima family, reduced to puppets of the great clans.
Wolf led the kobolds to Perrin's base, and upon discovering that the banner had vanished, he immediately realized what had happened. He turned back in a hurry and rushed swiftly to his own base.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Tina drew her magic staff, summoning descending spikes of rock from the sky to block the enemy's path.
With a matter of this magnitude and so many commoners crying out for justice, even if he wanted to suppress it, it was impossible to keep it down.
Lady Wanqing walked out from the inner hall, asking official Ye with burning anxiety. Raising her head, she only then noticed that the Dowager Matriarch was actually sitting at the front of the hall.
She probably was not Wu Sitong, as her voice was completely different. But could she be connected to Wu Sitong? Otherwise, how else could the current situation be explained?
Yan Zhen recalled that in legends, there was a type of maternal-fetal symbiotic mental monster. The rhythm of these mental monsters was unique: numerous filial-type mental monsters would appear first, followed a few days later by the maternal-type mental monster.
Yan Zhen retrieved the Sword Obsession Token once more. With this, he had nearly gathered all seven tokens. The Sword Monster Token was exceptionally easy to obtain, leaving only the elusive Sword Extinction Token remaining.
He truly felt grief-stricken over the death of King Wang Rong of Zhao. This was not only because Wang Rong had always supported his grand enterprise, but also because the two of them shared a deep personal friendship, which was why he had long planned to avenge Wang Rong.
One could tell that this belonged to the magnetic field rules of the galaxy where the Nine Palaces Constellation was located—namely, the legendary gravitational waves.
Gang Xin was an undisputed Xiantian realm expert at the first stage of Xiantian. Aside from Leng Bing, to put it bluntly, he could not beat a single person present; even Wu Chen could toy with him effortlessly.
"My purpose in coming here today is not to see an old friend, but to make a special trip," Xingchenzi said.
"Allow this old man to accompany you throughout the entire process to resolve this crisis." At this moment, another old man walked in from outside the stone gate, who was none other than Grandpa Si.
Operating in the shadows year-round, he was fully aware of the secret struggles in Jiangyuan City, and was particularly well-informed about the fate of the captured direct descendants of both sides. Phantom's so-called business primarily targeted these people, and it was utterly unscrupulous.
Long Qing widened his eyes with a complex expression. With that single palm strike, he had unleashed at least three billion units of force, expecting to severely wound his opponent on the spot, yet he never imagined it would be completely intercepted.
In a certain hospital ward, Xuan Xuan lay in the hospital bed. Today was supposed to be the day her father was discharged, but instead of going home, she had to stay behind in the hospital after being beaten, leaving a scar on her right cheek.
