Chapter 134: The Murder Weapon

134

Chen's Locksmith pointed to one of the pages and said, "Look, right here!"

Following the direction Chen's Locksmith pointed, Cheng Fei saw the written record: March 7th, Apartment 6, Building 6, Fengcheng Residential Area. Lock opened at 7:30 PM. The reason was that a toothpick had been jammed into the keyhole, damaging the lock cylinder. The cylinder was replaced, and the fee was 500 yuan.

"You keep very detailed work records, don't you?" Cheng Fei said, looking at Chen's Locksmith.

"Of course, an unlocking business like ours needs to be detailed," Chen's Locksmith replied.

"Alright, let me ask you, was it a woman who asked for your help to unlock the door?" Cheng Fei asked sternly.

"Yes, when I received her call, I was busy replacing a lock for someone else..."

Without answering, I fumbled around for a long time before finally fishing out all fourteen green brain cores. I carefully and reverently placed them into my clothes pockets. My skin felt greasy all over, and an unbearable itch crept across my body. No longer able to endure it, I ran down to the river to wash up.

The premature outbreak of the First World War left Li Ningyu unable to remain sitting still. Although he knew that everything was a result of his appearance, which had altered the original course of history, he was determined to do his utmost to change the final outcome.

"Mother, what did Father say? Does this mean we can return to the capital?" Lu Yi hastily stood up and asked Xie Min with excitement.

Accordingly, Xu Yang investigated the financial market. Neo-Kyoto Unlimited's stock prices began to plummet due to the news of the rat infestation. Capital views matters from a different perspective, paying closer attention to financial risks. The reality of the rat infestation exposed the vulnerability of Neo-Kyoto Unlimited; they lacked control over their own jurisdiction and had failed to discover even a large-scale rat-man nest.

This time I chose a different location. As soon as I flew outside the wasteland city, I saw a few zombies wandering out, evidently preparing to hunt in the wilderness. Catching sight of me descending from the sky, these zombies instantly perked up, howling as they lunged at me. Before they could even get close, I picked them off one by one with bone spikes.

"Yinshuang expresses her gratitude to Your Highness for your immense kindness." Yinshuang's voice was choked with tears, and she was about to kneel when Chu Lingfeng stopped her.

Out of the corner of my eye, I caught sight of Han旭 (Han Xu) smiling as he tilted his head back and drank. Where was any trace of intoxication left in those eyes? I sighed inwardly; Han Xu really wanted me to take charge. Yet I was a carefree person and had no desire to take on this task. Han Xu was meticulous by nature, and in many aspects, I simply couldn't measure up.

Li Ningyu plunged into thought once again, but at that moment, the Far Eastern Expeditionary Army's vanguard regiment had already deployed outside Shenyang city. Night was gradually falling; both the sea and the land were about to enter their respective dreams, yet at this hour, all branches of the military and every territory across the Far East remained bustling with activity.

The cultivation levels of cultivators merely reached the realm of Subtle Clarity before coming to an end; throughout their entire lives, they were utterly incapable of attaining the Realm of Great Clarity! As for the subsequent realms of Immortal Sentience and Eternal Life, they were merely fabricated intentionally by scheming individuals.

"Snake Demon, I didn't expect you to wander over here as well. It seems you used to thoroughly dislike places like this," Qiu Shaoze said with a beaming smile as he looked at him.

Lin Feng did not dodge or evade. With a direct push of his palm, the surging palm force crushed and pulverized the piercing sharp Qi into nothingness. The remaining palm force, with the unstoppable momentum of a bamboo splitting, crashed into Yin Yuanzhao, driving him back once again.

At that moment, a bizarrely-featured evildoer was holding forth eloquently on the podium. His skin had a bluish tint adorned with strange tattoos; he was completely bald and wore an earring in his left ear, somewhat resembling Dhalsim, the Indian fighter from Street Fighter.

Meanwhile, a Sea Clan soldier seemed to have discovered something. He stood up in astonishment, a look of profound bewilderment on his face as he spoke.

Shangguan Qingxin said nothing, only wrapping her arms tightly around Lin Feng and pressing her cheek against his chest.

Hu Chengpeng let out a roar toward the sky, and immediately several airborne demons were shot down. Seeing that Hu Chengpeng possessed anti-air capabilities, five demons lunged at him to kill him.

"Do not kill me, I surrender." The kneeling of the Grotto Heavenly Monarch triggered a chain reaction, much like toppling dominoes. The soldiers of the Great Han Imperial Court knelt down one after another, leaving blood-stained battle weapons abandoned across the crimson-stained grasslands of Great Han.
