Chapter 61: Lu Zhan's Late-Night Tenderness
"Don't be afraid, everything will be fine, live a good life." The water had already risen to my mouth. I stood precariously on my tiptoes, trying ever so slightly to prop up Mo Bei.
With a carefree flick, I tossed the cigarette butt into the trash can, dusted off my back, hailed a cab, and headed straight toward Guanggu.
Going to the Peak of the Gods was a spur-of-the-moment decision by Gaia; even he himself didn't know why he wanted to visit this place where supreme deities resided.
However, what made Yuchi Shenfeng feel a sense of foreboding was that... Lin Xiao kept glancing toward the direction of the Huangfu family from time to time.
In truth, he understood all of their intentions. What surprised him the most was that Milili, the one who opposed him the most and seemed the least likely, had actually stolen a march on him and boarded his sinking ship.
"It's good that you know. I saw you playing Landlords in the office instead of coming over to chat with me. You're so hateful," Ouyang Lan said resentfully.
The table full of dishes was finally ready to eat. Once I started eating, I couldn't stop at all. Xiaoyan beside me was much the same, leaving Tom and Ou Kuangda staring in shock, completely unable to even hold their chopsticks. However, this crazy eating frenzy of ours transformed the previously silent and awkward atmosphere.
The man in the black shirt said with a trace of jaded disgust. Hearing his words, I felt a sense of revulsion. I couldn't help but sigh that they were truly professionals, acting so convincingly—damn it, brilliant.
In front of the dome building lay a massive curved plaza, and in the center of the plaza stood a stone dragon. Impaled on the dragon's back was a towering celestial sword known as the Dragon-Slaying Sword, resting upon a boulder called the Dragon-Breaking Stone.
In particular, much to Zhang Ning's surprise, after the continuous updates of *I Am a Hooligan*, Zhang Ning also discovered several other classic underworld-themed works.
The basketball Yao Ming threw toward the backboard rebounded rapidly after hitting it. Long Jingang caught the ball precisely at its highest point, then scooped it up with one hand in a sweeping windmill motion, bringing a perfect conclusion to this spectacular teamwork.
Rui Mengmeng wasn't playing a game, although this "Knight Swordsmanship" inherited from super genes indeed looked very much like moves in a video game. But executing things like ground-stomping battle qi or light-speed QA operations was absolutely impossible.
About two hours later, the woods and bushes directly facing the bay in Dongshitan were burned to ashes, revealing the true appearance of the earth.
As for Tai O and South Lantau, they were islands. After more than a century of maritime bans by the Ming Dynasty, the environment of the coastal areas and islands had reached a state where no records could be found. The situation on the islands was completely unknown, and even the exact number of bandits on them was a subject of varied opinions.
This slap looked as though it landed on the middle-aged man's face, but in reality, she still remembered the words she had once spoken to Lin Shan.
George Stacy felt somewhat nervous. When he entered, he saw many generals belonging to various different branches of the military. He wasn't entirely sure where the rest of the people came from, but the equipment here was extensive, and the personnel all seemed exceptionally sharp and capable.
Long Jingang didn't take many shots in the first quarter, but his shooting percentage was frighteningly high because many of his shots came from second-chance opportunities after grabbing offensive rebounds.
After clocking in, Li Feifei opened her computer and browsed Weibo as usual, then picked up her phone to check WeChat... By the time she had wrapped up most of her work for the day and checked the time, it was surprisingly only 4:00 PM.
Fortunately, he didn't receive news of a defeat, nor did he receive news of a victory; he only learned that Prince Ning had withdrawn his troops.
Fortunately, Tianhe City was Tianhe City, not Dongguan; getting a back scrub there was still quite formal, and the whole process felt very comfortable without needing any special effects.
The Great Turtle had now taken over all the gambling dens previously run by Wang Xiangyang, strutting around like a big shot wherever he went. With a Mercedes-Benz preceding him and another following behind, he sat arrogantly in the middle of a stretch limousine, chomping on a cigar and holding a glass of red wine, ready to toast Fang Jingcheng. The only thing missing to complete this imposing aura was a pair of sunglasses.
Lu Feiyang's secondary nascent soul was only two feet tall, resembling a baby. At this moment, a circle of golden thread was wrapped around his body, and it was precisely this golden thread that made it impossible for Lu Feiyang to escape no matter what.
However, she didn't actually expect to find Ruoyi this way; she was merely reminding Ruoyi that she was here.
"What on earth are you trying to do? We are partners." Yelong was driven to distraction by Su Huan's inexplicable murderous intent.
Yu Qingrou had long since given word to Liu Ruyan that no matter who asked, she had to say it that way, otherwise it would be troublesome if her cover was blown and Yu Qingxuan found out. However, she hadn't expected that by a twist of fate, Liu Fangfei would also find out, which conveniently gave her an excuse to explain.
Dong Ruijiao nodded in response, while Dong Ruizhen's mind was entirely occupied by Zhang Yicheng, completely ignoring this heavyweight uncle.
As long as the items didn't get lost, that was fine. It was just as well for Academy City to confiscate them, since Moyan and the others wouldn't use them anyway.
The stone-block giant serpent opened its wide mouth and immediately spat out a destructive laser beam toward Su Huan.
Li Jingze wasn't actually as fussy as the other person imagined, so since Hesai put it that way, he tacitly accepted the rule and followed him into the waxberry orchard.
However, Sean keenly sensed that Volwald's gaze toward him had undergone a world of difference compared to when they first met.
During this meeting, Lin Zhenghua had already brought enough surprises to Hong Yu'an and Yao Niangui, but when he uttered the name "Nandu Machinery Factory," the two officials were once again stunned.
Yue Qianduo narrowed his eyes as he looked down. He had already recognized the other party's origins from their attire, and through clenched teeth, he said in a deep voice, "The Bada Chamber of Commerce again. You really have grown tired of living."
Yet today, Chen Xi actually used such precious treasures as a bounty in exchange for rare divine materials, making Qian An suspect that he had even misheard.
It was she who uncovered the evidence of the Xie family's crimes from years past, forcing the Xie family to lobby the Fifth Prince into giving up his obsession with the position of crown prince.
"Could something have happened?" Ye Xiu muttered inwardly, picking up the telephone beside the computer and preparing to call and ask, when suddenly the reception desk was tapped, indicating that a guest had arrived.
"You don't want the living, and even if you don't want the dead, you have to take them! Are you only going to be satisfied once you've killed yourself?" the Xie woman cried out, reaching out to beat the Chang Yuncheng in front of her.
"Why do you think I can't do it?" He turned to look at the man right before him. Although he had held back and minded his measure, it was still inevitable that he had left some marks on this man's face—the corner of his mouth slightly swollen and one eye larger than the other, making him look rather comical.
