Volume 1, Chapter 39: The Giant Golden Conch!
Li Yong glanced at the sacks in the carriage that were still seeping water, and asked with curiosity, "Second Bro, are you going to sell seafood again?"
"Yeah, got a little."
"That's hardly a little, there are three sacks of it," Li Yong said, keeping his eyes on the road while occasionally checking the rearview mirror.
"Just some worthless stuff."
"Hehe, Second Bro, you're really making a fortune in silence," Li Yong teased.
Ye Cheng smiled and remained silent.
"Still, Second Bro, now that you've made some money, eat something good. You're still feeding Xiaohu steamed buns and pickled mustard tubers?" Li Yong motioned toward the back with a slight nod.
"He likes to eat this."
Xiaohu sat in the back with a speechlessly defeated expression, taking a fierce bite out of his steamed bun. He had originally asked for instant noodles, but Ye Cheng claimed he had no money...
Playing so recklessly even in a normal match, wouldn't these people's consciences hurt at all?
At the same time, several tentacles stretched out, greedily absorbing the divine power emitted by Odin, which was not particularly violent.
A transparent water sphere floated in the air, appearing colorful under the sunlight.
"General Cheng, are you joking?" Hearing about such a thing for the first time, and learning that someone actually dared to do it—one has to admit, it was a miraculous feat.
"I have no choice either! I can't blame our players; in fact, we played really well, didn't we?! But sometimes that's just how the game goes, we lacked a bit of luck! They only had three shots on target, yet they won the match!" Hugo said with a helpless, bitter smile.
Dongfang Bubai looked at Wang Jin, who had executed this move, and drew out several more needles, shooting them straight toward Wang Jin.
Next, her sword flickered, slashing diagonally across. With another agile dodge, he effortlessly evaded it. He had assumed she would counter with her most formidable technique or resort to some underhanded trick, but she did nothing of the sort, wasting two golden opportunities in vain.
"Then what should we do?!" Richie asked with frustration. In truth, it was about hanging out with Tavecchio—why was Hugo so stubborn? Sometimes, obstinacy is hardly a good thing.
If anyone were to call themselves foolish, Ye Tan believed that between life and death, very few people could maintain such calm composure.
Dodging the Japanese patrol squads all the way, he arrived at Xinjiekou in the city center by noon.
This also meant that the seemingly simple feats Lin Hao spoke of inadvertently amounted to showing off in front of the audience.
Atlantis appeared exceptionally quiet, and not even a single shadow of the Gorgons could be seen.
Winning this match left just two more; as long as they successfully claimed the next two, RNG could successfully advance to the top four.
She was fortunate to meet Fu Huai'an and become his wife, and fortunate to meet Tuantuan and become her mother. This was the heavens' bestowal of grace upon her.
The corners of the pure white mask curved into a dangerous arc. Without making any visible movement, a thick, viscous black fog surged from behind it. Bizarre smoky ropes drilled out from the mist, entangling the incoming hidden weapons and twisting them into powder with a gentle swirl.
Her jade-white skin appeared even more crystal-clear in the morning sunlight, with droplets of water rolling across her flesh.
She had also thought of Yang Tielan, but knowing that leaving Asaka Sumiko might lead to misfortune, she simply screamed at the top of her lungs, hoping to attract the nearby Yang Tielan's attention. Yet after calling out for so long with still no one appearing, panic gnawed at her heart.
It was not until Gu Qingcheng arrived with his fiancée that Yun Liuli was still in the kitchen fiddling with a cake alongside the two children.
"It looks like moving back here to live was definitely the most correct choice," Tao Ran bragged shamelessly.
The Purple Crystal Lion's lantern-like eyes followed the young man's movements, staring directly and unblinkingly at him. Driven by the frenzy of the burning fire-gall, a glint of apprehension faintly flickered within those fierce, crimson eyes.
The Hongmen Assembly was a private organization, and theoretically, officials should not interfere, but now they were clearly surrounded.
This immediately made Xu Wuyou realize something was amiss, and he inwardly exclaimed that there truly must be a hidden story behind all this; otherwise, Bai Zimo wouldn't be acting so mysteriously.
Jin Jiulong smiled faintly, "Affairs of the world are true when they seem false, and false when they seem true; the genuine is fake and the fake is genuine—isn't that how it goes? In this world, only the victors have their good names praised across the realm, while only the weak bother to talk about benevolence, righteousness, and morality."
Under Matka's gaze, a cheap-looking hunk of iron, resembling a single-combat tracked robot, slowly rolled out from the cavity.
The sun gradually tilted westward, casting a layer of golden halo over the two figures, warm and comfortable.
"Damn it! It's a trap!" Yun Tu's gaze turned somewhat gloomy. Taowu might have truly fallen into her hands due to excessive arrogance and pride, suffering a ruthless thrashing at her behalf, but the appearance of Taotie and Qiongqi had lured her to the magma pool deep within the cave. This was no simple escape; it was drawing the enemy into a trap.
The starry river of the Milky Way, which once required one to look up in awe, was no longer so vast; perhaps a single Life and Death Reincarnation Seal could sweep across it all.
"Shut up, all of you shut up!" Sikong Yongshi sent a voice transmission to everyone, his crane-haired and youthful-looking face concealing stark terror. To him, Ning Moli sitting right here didn't matter so much; the crucial point was Han Dong.
If she became unable to protect herself completely, then Qi Rui would surely stand behind her as her missing backup and source of confidence, and he would never let anyone harm her.
Even Yang Jing, who was following closely behind the police officers, changed his perception of Bai Shengisheng a little after witnessing this scene.
Under the guidance of Manager Zhang, Xu Tian collected ten million gold coins and returned to his quarters.
Su Qing was somewhat displeased by Tang Wei's overly enthusiastic expression, but right now, she cared even more about Ye Luo's attitude and Chu Ran's indulgence.
Seeing that Liu Juncheng was giving her the cold shoulder, Ran Ximeng completely disregarded any hypocritical professional code of conduct among peers.
When Cheng Ting had previously lived across the street from Gu Baisheng's house, Mo Shaoyan had run into him once and even heard Song Shuang mention him.
