Chapter 57: I’m Going Head-to-Head with You Wealthy Folks!
“Miss Shen, Lili is far more intelligent than children her age, and she has been excelling in all areas recently. Her lively personality is a great asset. I suggest you and Mr. Gu consider enrolling her in kindergarten ahead of schedule. Given Lili’s talent, she could even skip several grades.”
One day during class, after grading countless perfect papers from Gu Li, the teacher pulled Shen Jin’an aside and made this sincere recommendation.
The teacher hesitated for a moment, his tone tinged with uncertainty.
It was likely that during the uprising following the main lineage’s rebellion, he had been beheaded by the Tie family—there would be no glory for him today.
From this perspective, the ability known as the Night Eye might still be connected in some way to the eyes.
Watching the pumpkin grenades and Mauser pistols turn to ash in the flames, his heart silently prayed.
It glared unhappily at the twin swords beneath it; if it hadn’t cleverly catalyzed wings in a moment of desperation, its beautiful fur would have been nearly sliced away.
Meanwhile, the power of telekinesis allowed He Ao to swiftly arrange the sacrificial offerings needed for the ritual.
Thus, he occasionally glanced at the comment section, deleting any unaddressed positive reviews—it was a simple task to complete.
Ning Meng couldn’t read Si Jiu’s expression, but since he didn’t ask her any questions, she breathed a sigh of relief.
As he knew, the Flame Demon wielded another weapon—the Obsidian Scythe—covered in countless sharp spikes. Its hardness surpassed even the stones on the Flame Demon’s body, making it a formidable tool against his own blazing dragon.
When the symbol appeared above their heads, Zhao Suqing and the others instantly noticed and each touched their head in surprise.
No wonder the poison inside her had never diminished. Ning Meng felt helpless—was this “fellow countrywoman” really from the same place she was?
While waiting for Shuxin, Wei Renwu sat cross-legged with eyes closed, deep in meditation, seemingly pondering something of great importance.
“Si Junhao! You can’t do this!” she called out anxiously, so urgent that she even spoke his name.
It seemed that if the young man said one more word, Wu Yue Gou would unleash the demon dragon inside him beyond his control.
“Your girls from Dream Return Tower sure have a lot of enemies,” Yin Gezhi said, picking up a sinisterly sharp hairpin from the table. When he touched the tip, blood welled on his finger.
She looked haggard, her complexion poor, and barely touched her plate—clearly, she was not faring well.
His expression shifted. Although Haitong Tian could understand Beidou’s current mood, the young man’s tone was too harsh. Yet, saving lives remained the priority.
Ye Chenmeng smiled and nodded, then rolled down the car window to let the cold air in, finally feeling it was easier to breathe.
“What? Mutated? That’s impossible!” Sorro exclaimed, clutching his abdomen in shock. Though a large hole was torn in his belly, at least his metallic internal organs remained unharmed; only his flesh was injured.
Bo Yin returned a military salute, then, under the direction of an older student, seemingly the squad leader, entered the nearby tent.
The warriors of the Xia tribe displayed fearless sacrifice, willing to die rather than let these vital material assets fall.
Ou Zikai watched Qi Yueyao, who said nothing but stared oddly ahead. Worried she might encounter illusions or worse, he hurried after her and gently stopped her.
Judging by its demeanor, it seemed eager to swoop down immediately and gulp them all up, chewing them to pieces.
After the bully and his followers were driven far away in terror, scattering and never daring to approach again, a wave of joy and pride swelled in his heart over his beloved son’s “victory,” accompanied by a tender, innate bond between mother and child.
“Vitality? Income?” Leng Yu was momentarily stunned, looking at the ancient ape in confusion. Then realization dawned on him, and he laughed heartily. With a flick of his spiritual energy, he enveloped the Fire Spirit Vein and swiftly stored it in the mysterious petal space.
