Chapter 40: Hongtan Fermented Bean Curd

Cheng Yubai was in no hurry. As the saying goes, haste makes waste, so he was content to follow Jiang Yuan’s lead. Still, he teased, "You suggested we go to Yi County—is it because you can't bear to be away from me?"

Jiang Yuan’s face flushed as her secret motive was laid bare. She sniffed, "Who can't bear to be away from you? I just miss the autumn scenery in Yi County. I told you before that autumn there is the most beautiful in all of Huangshan City. Besides, my mom still has work to do. Didn't you hear her say that a business owner in Yi County invited her to make a short video about fermented bean curd?"

Pikachu turned its blood-red eyes toward Ash and his companions, emitting a low, guttural growl.

Who could have known that in just three or five years, his son would provide him with so many surprises? Especially since starting his grassroots position after graduation, in merely three or four months, his way of speaking and acting had developed a sense of steady composure that far surpassed his own.

South Korea’s entertainment industry is highly developed. A "Korean Wave" is currently sweeping across Asia, and Korean celebrities are sprouting up like bamboo shoots after the rain, trained and cultivated by major agencies, ready to join the ranks of the Hallyu wave at any moment.

Bidding farewell to everything in Goldenrod City, Ash’s next destination was the Ecruteak Gym, home to the Fog Badge.

Manchester United leveled the score in the 67th minute. Gary Neville sent a left-footed cross from the right flank into the penalty area, where Giggs surged in, evaded Gallas’s block, and fired a left-footed volley. Petr Čech, caught standing too far off his line, was unable to stop the ball from finding the back of the net.

If any other immortal were present, they would likely be terrified by her audacity to speak the Emperor’s true name so directly.

Carabis felt a bit amused. Before crossing over, he was a stereotypical "wizard" in college. He never expected that after becoming a slave, he would be so fortunate—first, the touch of Portia’s sexy hand, and now, the fragrant lips of Adriana.

Old Man Zhuang called Jade to bring the equipment. Not long after, Jade emerged from the room holding a large box. He inserted three jade discs and tinkered with them. Beams of light projected from the box, forming a high-definition, three-dimensional image, complete with sound.

The scene that followed made her feel as though the world had gone mad—perhaps you might have seen dozens of bombers flying overhead, but you could never have witnessed hundreds of bombers using precision guidance to strike an object only dozens of meters away from you. Ji Ke had the "fortune" of witnessing exactly that.

Lin Yi’s guess was correct. After returning, Yu Le immediately wore a bitter expression. His father, Yu Di, burst into a rage upon seeing his son crying like a girl.

Old Mai wondered to himself, if he possessed such spatial traits, his research into spatial teleportation arrays would be twice as effective with half the effort. He had studied arrays, prohibitions, and talismans for years and achieved deep mastery, but the field of spatial arrays remained his shortcoming.

"This guy, his cultivation is only at the early stage of the fifth level of the Divine Dan Realm, yet he actually forced City Lord Di Ying to unleash such an overbearing martial technique?"

The middle-aged man before them was Chen Lishan, the benefactor behind the Qian family. Chen Lishan studied under a mysterious and powerful master; even at the initial stage of the Grandmaster realm, he was already the premier expert among local beginners.

Over three million "Ten-Tailed Beast Bombs" occupied the void for a million miles. The destructive aura they exhaled, when combined, was enough to make even a "Low-Grade Origin God-Man Realm" expert afraid to cross them.

The Outer Realm Demon Clan had begun a large-scale invasion, and the Heaven and Earth Alliance, having emptied its ranks, rushed to the battlefield.

A thousand miles was not a great distance for the strongest Venerables at the Third Step of Nirvana, and while some had already arrived, they did not make a move just yet.

To be precise, there was only one move: condensing the power of the Beast God to form a Beast God’s avatar for the attack.

When Old Man Li saw Lin Yi truly walking toward him, his eyes were filled with disdain. He had been in this business for decades, and his eyes were notoriously sharp; this unremarkable piece of gambling stone was, in his estimation, nothing more than waste rock.
