Chapter 138: Tigers and Wolves

"Daji?!" Ye Chu instantly saw through the seals and spells on the opponent's body, unable to suppress a trace of astonishment. The experiences of his past thousand years had truly been so extraordinary, so extraordinary that even he was left somewhat speechless.

Seeing that it was a landline number with the area code 010, Cao Yue hesitated for a moment, but finally pressed the answer button.

Rusty, who was about to leave, suddenly caught sight of a red sheer mini skirt hanging to the side. After staring at it for a few moments, he suddenly reached out, took it down, held it to his nose, and took two deep breaths before putting it away and turning to leave.

They could not imagine what kind of person could possess such terrifying power. Even the offspring of divine beasts or celestial beasts would probably reach at most this level.

"This poison must be inhaled through the lungs to take effect." Although the forensic investigators did not know the exact composition of this poison, they could roughly guess its characteristics. This poison either had no effect at all, or once it took effect, it instantly claimed a life.

"Can you bloody drop the word 'only', making it sound like you could even last half a bell!" Wang Fan retorted irritably.

It was due to sheer coincidence that Ye Chu had successfully cultivated the first chapter, "Entering the Demonic Path First"; however, attempting to continue further with his cultivation would simply be sheer delusion.

"Then what's in it for me? Even if I don't get anything, my company commander surely will, right?" Li Mobai asked.

Hunched near the bathroom window, he carefully checked the situation upstairs and downstairs, adjusted his equipment, leaned out, and climbed onto the bathroom window frame, preparing to make his way upstairs directly through the window.

Xu Anguo puffed on his long pipe, staring at the mountain-like pile of distiller's grains before him with no good solution in sight.

"Who said the match is over? No one has conceded yet, so the match must continue!" the members of the Qi family sneered.

Among the five great elders of the Lone Wolf Gang, Old Monster Yao was rather unique. Ranked fourth, his strength was nevertheless among the very best, and coupled with his remarkable medical skills, he was deeply revered and admired by the gang members. However, he had a reclusive temperament, rarely interacted with others, and what people found most astonishing was that he had never taken on a disciple.

At that moment, he sensed an odd trace in the air, and the fox grew somewhat uneasy. Feeling a slight dizziness in his head, he was instantly filled with vigilance, held his breath, feigned deep sleep, and tightly gripped a piece of spirit crystal in his hand.

That kind of place was truly not somewhere anyone could just visit, especially since strict orders had been given prohibiting anyone from visiting.

Come to think of it, he had been wandering the cultivation world for quite a few years. Since as far back as he could remember, he had followed his master to learn cultivation and artifact crafting. When he was ten years old, his master reached the end of his lifespan and ascended to immortality.

When bringing her the white fungus and lotus seed soup on Thursday night, he had several times wanted to speak, but ultimately swallowed his words back down.

As dusk fell, the young man in white caught sight of Old Madam Song busying herself with something inside the kitchen. Looking down from the roof, it appeared the old madam was stewing a pot of chicken soup.

"You, how could you? How could you use him?" An Min was flustered, seeming particularly anxious to stop Xia Xin from hiring Zhang Bing.

Fine! Xia Xin had no intention of explaining. She had always done as she pleased, and people could say whatever they liked.

Upon their initial contact, both were startled. Zhao Ziming was taken aback by the opponent's inner strength cultivation, which reached as high as the eighth layer, while Li Yuzhi was equally astonished by the other's formidable strength.

A sea beast went on a rampage, extending a single claw that blotted out the sky and sun as it smashed downward. Instantly, the sea surface churned with towering waves. As the claw descended, the ice beneath Jiang Dongyu's feet shattered, and he was driven into the water, creating a massive splash.

Ye Zheng had thought he was the only one who didn't know what the exploration rate meant. It turned out no one else understood either. Aside from their lacking strength, at least in their understanding of the ruins, he and his classmates stood at the same starting line—completely in the dark.

Having completely divided up the treasures, the entire army was now brimming with morale and obeyed every single command from Ye Feng without question.

"You haven't attended classes for a year. Can you keep up if you transfer in now?" Su Qingrou asked, unable to hide her worry.

Heixuan's heart was bleeding. A-Yun, how cruel you are. You would rather stay with a mortal than turn around and look at the one silently guarding you from behind.

The entire street of golden light smashed down, passing effortlessly through Dawn's body without producing any effect at all.

The index finger he had extended retracted slightly, rubbing against his thumb to produce a crisp snap.

He could assume that Mayor Chen was a member of their four-family alliance. Otherwise, he wouldn't have spoken that way. Even if they weren't in the same camp, Chen Xiao's current stance was at least aligned with his own, which provided room for gradual development.

Seeing the situation brought under control, everyone could not help drawing in a sharp breath. The shock of the recent turn of events was simply too great for them. Although the surrounding environment had grown much quieter, people could still smell the lingering scent of blood in the air.

Humans are, after all, living creatures, and the primary essence of a living creature is survival. In the face of survival, gentlemen's manners and the like are utter nonsense.

"Are you certain you want to go out dressed in something like pajamas?" Lu Lin felt that Qiuqiu Tianli's attire was somewhat inappropriate.

Could one possibly fail to take their medicine properly in the Qin family? Before the food even reached your mouth, there were temple guardians watching you take your medicine.

Lu Lin felt that Qiuqiu Taizhang seemed exceptionally honored and delighted by his use of the Great Divine Power: Wind God Realm.

He was gravely injured, and despite Xiaozhu's utmost efforts, she could only manage to keep him alive, unable to completely heal him.

The sound originated from a patch of tall grass not far from her. Inside came a different kind of panting—a panting accompanied by rustling and gasping sounds, exceptionally bizarre, along with the sound of swallowing, which made her fur stand on end.

"Yes..." Mo Yiming was as lively as ever in ordinary times, but whenever the subject turned to Lu Lin, she found herself completely at a loss for words.

Uncle Feng was right; strength is the ultimate truth. If you want to accomplish anything, you must first possess sufficient strength. That is how this world works—without strength, whatever you wish to do remains mere fantasy.

Answering the phone, Qin Yuehan happened to catch those few gazes filled with astonishment. His gaze grew cold, and he swept a light glance over the crowd, delivering a silent warning before stepping outside the meeting room.

"Alright then, with Sister Lan's word I can rest easy. Whatever we're eating today is on me," Boss Hu said happily.

However, considering that Man Hu was only a Genin, and judging by his physique he likely belonged to a strength-type ninja, using a samurai sword would indeed allow him to display his strength much better than using kunai.

Regardless, Ah Wang was a helper invited by Liu Jing. Seeing him captured while Liu Jing walked away without even offering a word of farewell was truly chilling.

Recalling the animal feces and hoof prints he had seen along the road, Wang Zichen guessed it was likely wild boars foraging for food. Thinking of this, Wang Zichen suddenly got the idea of setting up a barbecue party that evening.
