Chapter Sixty-Five
Over the past few days, Cui Yingluo learned enterprise management, price management, marketing management, and even the most fundamental welcoming etiquette from Lu Chen.
The moment she stepped into Bao'an, she looked at the scattered low-lying houses and the emaciated, dark, and malnourished faces etched with hunger and poverty.
At this moment, Lin Hao let out a hearty burp, though no one heard it amidst the chorus of vomiting and gasping surrounding him.
The fire sprite replied with utmost fury, his anger flaring up the moment he thought of Long Jinhua.
In Yu Xingwu's mind, a scene suddenly flashed: Shen Zhuo summoning the desolate sword to sever the chains binding his body, and then stabbing himself with another strike in an attempt to alleviate the effects of the aphrodisiac.
After completing three sessions, it was already one in the morning, leaving no time to update. Therefore, I will take half the afternoon off today to finish writing all the missed chapters.
Everyone present, disciples and elders alike, clearly felt their lifespans increase by several years.
Yet her unspoken thoughts just now mentioned Feng Chen and Ye Su, while omitting him entirely. Could it be that there were simply too many people sitting here, causing her to remain unnoticed?
Their sole purpose for being kidnapped was to coerce the Emperor and suppress the Third Prince's rebellion by force.
Ever since Li Yuan tracked down Old He's family, offering to recommend them to a restaurant run by Hongkongers with a lavish monthly salary of five hundred yuan, a bizarre atmosphere permeated the entire quadrangle courtyard.
A seventeen-year-old youth achieving the rank of Martial Grandmaster—what a monstrous, freakish talent it must take to forge such an anomalous abnormality.
Brother Qiang continued to rummage through the sludge, unearthing nothing more than ordinary household garbage without a single useful item.
Now that this person had stopped mimicking my moves, I seized the moment he exposed a flaw, hacked a blade into his leg, and followed up with a backhand slash across his neck.
After washing my face in the shop, I pulled out my phone, intending to call my master and inquire about the situation, but the thought of his current condition made me hesitate.
"President Liu, I saved your life. Is this the attitude you show toward your savior?" Xiao Tian said with a half-smile.
That anxiety was one of helplessness, and the agony was fraught with irritation. There was also deep fear, profound panic, and above all, bewilderment and helplessness.
Ye Fan's words were astonishing; whether they were Hongkongers, Japanese, or Englishmen, everyone present sank their expressions.
It was one thing when Chu Yun used to work part-time at KTVs over the weekends, but now she was actually skipping classes just to earn that meager pittance.
Just as Zhang Zhenning was preparing to study in one go, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening outside.
"If you haven't brought enough money, don't ride my carriage. Get out," the middle-aged driver said with a look of disdain.
This young general named Ma Chao was the majestic lion and fierce tiger in the hearts of their Xiliang iron cavalry, a figure revered by every single soldier, and their young master.
My chest seemed to transform into a boundless ocean, and my heart was continuously dragged downward by some unknown entity in the abyss, until Yu Jingyan's voice, tinged with a hint of impatience, sounded deeply beside my ear.
Before anyone could react, they saw them pull something on the object, and shortly after, it spat out a flurry of sparks.
Although this new weapon was still unrefined at this stage and supplies were extremely limited, when deployed correctly, it could indeed dictate the course of a battle.
As his gaze swept across, nearly everyone from the Nine Heavens faction stationed upon the fortress dropped to their knees on the ground.
He had originally anticipated a conflict between the Three Pure Ones and Tianyuan, but unfortunately, so much time had passed, and the two remained completely at peace.
Yet, Li Ping's current behavior seemed somewhat abnormal, filling Qin Cheng's heart with astonishment. Could it be that Li Ping had truly changed? After experiencing so many events, her perspective had shifted, leading her to feel that she had indeed treated him unjustly.
Moreover, Shen Qing could not understand why the He family, despite breaking off their marriage alliance with Shen芙, still went to such lengths to protect her.
The evening sunset was a hazy, clear amber. Filtered through the towering floor-to-ceiling windows, the sunlight fell like a fine drizzle, bathing the entire space in a warm, golden hue.
Liu Zongquan struggled violently, accidentally kicking over a table, which startled Luo Yuanhao into recoiling quickly.
The sword body was pitted and uneven, yet after this fierce battle, a chip had formed on the right side of the hilt, faintly glinting with a cold light.
Naturally, since everyone had gathered, it was impossible to discuss only Lin Dao Dao's strength. The true purpose of coming here was to undergo trials. After a day of adapting to a pickup group, it was time to consider forming their own squads and executing tactical plays.
Zhang Wei had no intention of spending his spare time over several years to build one from scratch, so he decided to follow the other party's suggestion, raise the price slightly, and purchase it directly from them.
Though he owned a farm, working from sunrise to sunset, every time he returned to the house he would address the empty space with a "I'm home," and then sit quietly, letting his mind go blank until hunger became unbearable.
This time, Luo Yuanhao grew smart. He grabbed Zhang Wei by the back collar of his shirt, dragging him downward while half-tucking the Tibetan mastiff under his ribs, struggling to maintain distance and prevent it from lunging to its death.
When the seven-to-eight-meter-tall Earth Father and the ten-meter-tall Mountain Giant successively appeared on the battlefield, the human counterattack reached its climax.
