Chapter 44 Snow
Shang Jiuxu knew that Sumeian was an exceptional actress; he was well aware of her professional competence and never doubted it.
He disliked seeing her smile at other men, even when she needed a favor from them.
He decided he would fire whoever designed this particular segment as soon as he got back.
Then, after a moment's thought, he sighed. Sumeian wouldn't like that, so he guessed he would let it go.
"Sure, sure, absolutely." Luo Bingda was dazzled by Sumeian's smile, nodding like a seal. Coming to his senses, he almost anxiously glanced at Shang Jiuxu, forcing himself to withdraw his gaze.
It was not out of cowardice or a lack of loyalty, but rather that if they did not run, they would likely meet their end right there on the spot.
In the end, Hao Yu had no choice but to travel with Huitong. The two boarded an aircraft and flew toward distant Russia.
From the late winter of the thirteenth year of Mingxing to the summer solstice of the fourteenth year of Mingxing, the losses suffered by the Xuan family amounted to several thousand taels of gold.
Zhong Ling's voice gradually grew hazy and indistinct. Her gaze grew increasingly glazed, and a fine sheen of sweat broke out across her cheeks and delicate nose.
Taking advantage of this period, the northern and southern forces of Wa had recruited another twenty thousand soldiers, with each side dispatching thirty thousand more to the front. Naturally, Wa was unwilling to withdraw just like that, while Goryeo had already consolidated the loyalist forces from various regions, preparing to drive out the invaders.
Zhang San nodded; indeed, that made sense. He hadn't expected that a mere flick of his wrist could bring about such massive changes to the capital, nor had he paid much attention to the fact that the capital was currently undergoing a massive construction boom of workshops.
The old man, thin as a skeleton, was clearly a person of fiery temper. Seeing Hao Yu's contemptuous expression, he roared with anger instantly, his figure flashing as he lunged straight at Hao Yu.
Zhang San had been watching from the side. Wu Decai's performance was quite decent; although it seemed he had somewhat copied methods from the past, with gradual training, he was definitely moldseeing the workers arrive at their stations and begin bustling about, Zhang San strolled around a few times.
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, another thunder-burst bomb exploded against the Dragon-Blood Steel Golem.
The effect was exceptional. It had fused perfectly with the Dragon Fang Saber, allowing him to maneuver it so that his mind directed the blade and the blade followed his thoughts.
Hanging up the phone, Jiang Bei picked up his smartphone and logged into the Anning City Urban Forum to check the information regarding the death of Jing Liuyun earlier today and the ferocious beasts outside the city.
"God Slayer" detached a jade pendant from his chest, tossed it across the void to A Lang, and said, "I bestow this 'Seven-Treasures Wish-Fulfilling Pagoda' upon you. Inside are some items I collected back in the day, which you may slowly examine in the future." He then transmitted the method of using the "Seven-Treasures Wish-Fulfilling Pagoda" to A Lang.
"Shen Chao, you can finally die with clarity now! Die!" Fang Ning couldn't be bothered to waste any more words on him. With a single thrust of his sword, he instantly pierced through Shen Chao's heart.
Qing Ziye was actually a really good person, but unfortunately, because of Qu Qingyou, they never quite warmed up to him. Look at this—knowing full well that Qu Qingyou got into a fight yet failing to stop it, he even ended up dragging their captain out to play peacemaker. Thinking about it now, that really wasn't very fair to him.
Because he was unconscious, Yaoji did not rashly initiate an attack on these creatures, merely ordering the scout rabbits to monitor their movements.
Seeing Murong Furui make a move, Zuo Zhu stirred as well. When the others saw the two of them move, everyone started running toward the door, dashing straight out of the threshold. I followed them out, feeling somewhat lost and unsure of what to do. Inside were, on one hand, a superior, and on the other, someone who had always helped me.
Though startled by the situation at Tiansong Corporation, he also realized that some unexpected circumstances had indeed occurred.
Logically speaking, since it was a pulse-guarding carved dragon and placed right here, it should by all accounts be considered the protector of the spirit crystal vein. Yet in the end, it showed no reaction whatsoever.
Ye Tianyi walked into the building with a try-anything attitude and was pleasantly surprised to see that the elevator was still operational. At this point, Ye Tianyi really couldn't afford to hesitate any longer; even though the danger of the elevator far outweighed that of the stairs, he had no choice but to make a final gamble. Ultimately, he chose to take the elevator all the way to the top floor.
