Volume One, Chapter Ninety-Six: The Bar

I thought you might be something decent, but I never imagined you were as disgusting as Chen Fei. Birds of a feather!

As soon as Ding Dang finished speaking, he drove a fist straight out and sent the man flying on the spot.

Seeing this, Chen Fei was about to slip away, only to be blocked in an instant by Ding Dang.

“Let me explain... ah...”

“If you’re really that bored, come have dinner with me tonight. But let’s be clear: you’re only allowed to say repetitive things.”

Used to seeing him every morning in a black business suit, she was momentarily unprepared when he appeared in light gray casual wear, her gaze following his figure tightly.

The first person to collapse suddenly rose again, yet his body convulsed uncontrollably. Unable to master himself, he staggered toward the fallen people who had not yet gotten up, bared his death-white teeth, and tore into their flesh.

At the time, I was terrified and too tense to say a word. By the time I reacted, I had already smelled something burning. I slammed my head against the wooden boards with all my strength, but still no one noticed.

I looked at the corpse in the black pit, waved my hand, and a blaze burst forth, reducing that body to nothing.

“Don't worry, Ying'er. Chen'er is all right already.” That night, the Northern Emperor could not count how many times he had seen her secretly wipe away tears, so he comforted her.

Seeing that everyone had gathered their thoughts, Xue Pan smiled faintly. His purpose had, at last, been achieved.

Yet Peng Li's eyes shone. With a memory that never forgot once it had seen, and the powerful working and reasoning of his primordial spirit, he absorbed one unique skill after another.

Qiu Feng did not bother to explain further. To her eyes, every move of Aunt Su was nothing more than a petty trick, obvious at a glance.

“You should each get one too, and put it on!” Yun Die'er turned to tell them. She always felt that once one wore a mask, one gained a certain air of mystery. Besides, on the streets as far as the eye could see, everyone wore a mask; there was no exception.

“They’ve already lost contact. Looks like they won’t be escaping this one.” Jin Keyan’s voice drifted lazily from the side.

This was Bu Qianhuai’s first thought. But soon he was powerless to act, because the true essence within his body refused to obey his summons, and even his Demonic Dragon Arm seemed to have fallen into slumber, showing not the slightest response.

At this moment, her mind was in utter chaos. Fortunately, the materials she had prepared last night were fairly complete; otherwise, she would have made a fool of herself. She was afraid that during her internship she would leave a very poor impression on the bosses, and then it would be difficult for her to teach at this school once she graduated from her fourth year.

The ghost, having failed several times to harm him even a hair, grew furious and frantic, its assaults becoming more and more savage. Seeing it rolling up its sleeves and gearing up for battle, Yu Zhen felt an unprecedented crisis.

She felt a little vexed deep down. Why was it that during this period she could so clearly sense that everyone around her was hiding something from her?

Gazing at Qin Ling's frosty, exquisite figure, and at the icy snow prison that seemed so perfectly suited to her, El could not help but stare in a daze.

“This time, I will have to trouble Brother Mo for your assistance. Whatever the outcome, my Mysterious Mechanism Sect is willing to offer fifty Foundation Establishment Pills as payment afterward.” Qingling Daoist said.

Under the shock of that ferocious punch, the other warrior leaning beside the door also grew tense. He took up sword and shield once more, his expression solemn as he stared fixedly at the stone giant.

Upon hearing this, Mo Ke's face was touched with a trace of bitter amusement. The Jin family had not merely retaliated; they had retaliated to the death, and the thought of such a powerful assassin organization pursuing an endless vendetta made his scalp tingle.

“Shen Jiaming, you did it on purpose. You deliberately said those words just now to muddle the waters.” Luo Qiran was somewhat unhinged, her voice already nearing hysteria.

It was not that she believed the moon overseas was rounder or anything of the sort, but rather that traveling abroad was simply more convenient. Everyone was an adult. Whether life was more comfortable at home or overseas, one trip would make it clear. After all, not every country was a place where one could walk the streets without worrying about being shot at any moment.

As the ringing of the phone call sounded, Mu Lingxi could not help silently praying in her heart as well.

Seeing that Chu Yu was unharmed, Tuchen also ceased the protective spell he had been chanting. His gaze, too, shifted from Chu Yu fighting in the rear to the seven Vigtrians who had come to reinforce them.

When she saw the murderous look in Bo Yuhan's eyes, she lost even more courage, and could only turn her head away as though she saw nothing.

Carrying her into the living room, Jasmine wanted to get down, but Chu Yunxiao simply ignored her. The man carried her all the way into the bedroom and set her on the bed.

Qiao Liuxi was thrown by the force against the wall behind the elevator. In the next second, there was a sharp thud as one of Shangguan Zixuan's large hands pressed against the elevator wall, his body bent over the still bewildered Qiao Liuxi.

That thing was extremely powerful. If it were to spread through the imperial capital, or even throughout the entire Kingdom, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The Flame Emperor Sword and the Vermilion Bird Divine Sword, both peerless immortal swords, were only earth-rank weapons. The Flame Emperor Sword was high-grade earth-rank, while the Vermilion Bird Divine Sword was slightly inferior at mid-grade earth-rank. Zhang Tianyu's Seven-Star Sword fell another step below it, merely low-grade earth-rank.

He blinked, lowered his head to fiddle with the cube for a while, then slipped down from the sofa and walked over to that dark-faced uncle.

Though tragic, no longer living in the form of a human, to Chu Feng her value was immense. The substance from which William developed the G virus, the very foundation at the beginning, was extracted from her.

Jian Xing said irritably. Then the phone on the coffee table rang, and he looked up to see that no caller name was displayed.

He opened his eyes in a daze, stretched lazily, and saw that the sun had already sunk into the west.

The police officers: ...

Forget it. Getting through the day safely and without incident was already quite good, even if it meant the bonus would be much smaller.

And because Tang Molin cared deeply for Shen Siyang, when she heard him tacitly admit it, she was so delighted she could not find words to describe it. Yet the relationship that followed was not at all as she had wished.

Yong Yule directly formed a hand of true energy and slapped it hard across this “uncle’s” face.

Lou Zhiying froze. His mind had been fixed on Lu Xuan all along, so the first person he noticed upon entering had been him. Now that his mind had settled somewhat, he finally saw clearly the man seated beside Lu Xuan, and could not help feeling both astonished and curious. It turned out that the expert guard was not the one the two of them had assumed, A Wu, but Guan Feng, whom they had seen days ago at Chen Liang’s residence.

“Pfft!”

With his mouth full of rice, Luo Luoli, startled, spat it all back out.

When I woke, they had already woken as well. His aunt had prepared some breakfast for us to eat, and then said she would take us out into the streets to have a look around. When I stepped out the door, the scene before my eyes was not at all what I had imagined.
