Chapter 23: There Will Always Be Traitors Plotting Against Me!!!
Qi Hao spoke with calm composure. He could understand the man's urgency, but if the man refused to be reasonable, Qi Hao would not indulge him.
"What is there to worry about? When we return, they won't be able to escape paying back the principal with interest," Yun Lan said with a smile.
Another major improvement was his mental maturity. At this moment, Lu Zhen was far more steady than when he first arrived in this world. Although only two months had passed, he had experienced too much life and death; he had seen people die and had killed people himself. This was not the kind of growth a college student from the future could ever attain.
Among these documents were three photographs: one from an ID card, one taken in prison, and one taken at the time of arrest.
"To think there are still some who slipped through the net!" Everyone was stunned, and immediately, several men turned their horses around to give chase. Although no one had ordered them to wipe out the entire Laha tribe, such matters were best handled thoroughly; whenever stragglers were discovered, someone would always attempt to hunt them down.
Hehua tidied the courtyard, still feeling uneasy. Usually, when Liu Dingtian went into the mountains with the master, it took at most a week; there had indeed been no precedent for it taking ten days.
Yiyi said, "Yes, so far its development model matches yours the most, and its growth rate is also something you can keep up with. That is why I believe it is the most suitable company for you." Qin Ming sighed, for the company Yiyi had selected for him was a titan of the entertainment industry—the largest film and television corporation in the field.
Consequently, Ilona felt an itch to help her, popping all the pimples on her forehead. It was only afterward that she realized she had come to save Zet, not to help someone pop pimples, and she kicked the door open and ran out.
"Alright, Yun Chen, stop making a scene. There is a reason they are doing this." Seeing this, Lin Chuxia shook her head helplessly, shot Yun Chen a glare, and said.
Ye Xuan was visibly stunned, yet deeply moved. Back when she held absolute power in the Immortal Realm, she had never imagined that there would come a day when her own physical body would be destroyed.
"Hehe, damn it, the colder it gets, the harder it is to pee. Don't laugh at me, either. I saw your sister-in-law buying some kidneys a couple of days ago—are you trying to build up your strength?" Xue Bao failed to produce any result with his stream, and although he felt a bit dejected, he refused to admit defeat.
"So we can't go back?" Some of them could not bear the bad news and began to wail on the spot.
Within these icebergs, which spanned ten miles, no one knew how many ghosts were imprisoned. As the icebergs melted rapidly under the scorching flames, clusters of black mist emerged, rushing toward Chen Changsheng like a swarm, only to have their malevolence purged before being sent into the cycle of reincarnation.
With the warnings from the head constable, the bailiffs naturally dared not act recklessly. Chief Constable Jin even opened the central gate. With that, the bailiffs dared even less to reach out their hands for bribes.
This miasma was the filthiest substance in the world. Except for the power of Buddhism, which could restrain it, there were very few things in the world that could withstand its erosion. Everything else, whether it be a magical artifact or a flying sword, would inevitably have its spiritual essence extinguished the moment it was touched, becoming nothing more than a piece of ordinary iron.
Now that Jia Xiujun had retreated to the perimeter, her blade-aura strikes posed little threat to Lin Feng, as his movements were extremely swift; the moment the aura was unleashed, he would have already begun to dodge.
Time flowed on. When the ninth decade arrived, over a thousand figures had gathered there. Each arrival would look at Li Mu with a look of shock, then bow deeply, as if worshiping a god or Buddha, revering him.
Early in the morning, Kuroko was summoned to the Judgement 177th Branch office by a phone call from Konori Mii.
One was merely the son of an imperial physician, linked by the necessity of medical treatment; the other, however, was favored by the Emperor, a man whom Cai Jing and Gao Qiu could never forget.
"Just you wait. When I grow up and make money, we'll see if I give you a single cent. It infuriates me, hmph." After receiving a sound thrashing from the big man, Liu Minglang felt he could no longer stay in this house and, fuming, went to the courtyard to set up his eel traps.
Ye Qingwan found an inn; she needed to at least take a bath and change her clothes first before discussing the investigation.
William spoke with an air of regret, explaining the origins of the spiritual Thanos and how Thanos had used six gems obtained from other dimensions to kill him, eventually ending with William's counterattack, which caused all the gems to be destroyed together.
Instead, her eyes gleamed with cold hatred. She crawled on all fours, retreated behind the corner of the wall, and waited in silence.
After lunch, except for a few villagers who had to go home to look after their children for naps, the rest of the group chose to continue working, transforming their old fishing nets into long eel traps through their labor.
I pondered over and over again; if I chose "Truth" here and she asked me if I was Meng Feng, how should I answer?
Meng Qing'er restarted the car. This person might have been playing racing games recently; she floored the gas pedal at the start, but two seconds later slammed on the brakes. I was in the passenger seat without a seatbelt, my head hitting the windshield hard, nearly flying out of the car.
That day in the arena, Zhuang Yu had shocked the audience by channeling the Nine Refinement Spirit Technique; they had seen it clearly.
The Great Ming dynasty ships were fleeing, greatly encouraging the crew on the Portuguese vessels; their initial anxiety and fear were swept away. They also raised their anchors and hoisted their sails, pursuing in the direction of the fleeing Great Ming fleet.
But now, he was certain that Chu Zhongyuan's words were not false at all. What lived here were indeed bizarre things, though judging by their aura, they were not particularly powerful, mostly maintaining the level of the third or fourth stage of Entering the Spirit.
The Wusun general was determined to doom the Dayuan. He spoke incessantly, describing the produce, military strength, and territory of the Dayuan with great clarity. After all, having been neighbors for many years and dealing with them for so long, even if he hadn't fully grasped the situation within Dayuan, he had a fifty or sixty percent understanding of it.
