Chapter 103: You Know Too Much
Lu Yu shook his head, no longer dwelling on such matters. After all, those things still felt far removed from him.
One day, while reading at home, Lu Yu received a call from Ge Yuncong. He told him that the main modules and plugins of the special effects software were nearly completed, and they were about to conduct the first overall test. Lu Yu felt a spark of anticipation and said he would head to the company immediately.
After hanging up, he informed the security personnel and, once they were ready, set off together.
The "Nine-Tailed Fox" cursed under his breath, looking around. He was the only one still fighting solo; the other four had already checked out to rest.
This carving left no room for shortcuts; he had to do it himself. The workshop did have carving tools, but even with machines, Zhen Tian still needed to extract the design and input it into the computer.
Zhen Tian made it sound simple, but after Chu Huaiyuan's appearance that day, his attitude had indeed shifted somewhat. While she confronted the Shen family fiercely, Chu Huaiyuan showed no anger, his face full of smug satisfaction.
Now, upgrading a fish pond was costing so much—it was like cutting into Jiang Yan’s heart.
“The power to rupture the meridians is too great; it’s likely more than just shattering the meridians,” Yaoxuan recalled vividly. The first palm strike, "Mountain-Breaking Meridians," had only created a deep fissure.

In this era, in Dakang, no one but her could produce such cosmetics.
Legend had it that during the universe's destruction, the Ancestral Dragon crossed the great calamity with a mighty physical form, emerging unscathed without a single scale or armor damaged.
Chu helped her aunt wash the dishes. Though everyone insisted it was unnecessary, she couldn’t stay idle and was left to do it.
If not for that, if everything was just a misunderstanding, since he hadn’t yet seen the letters on the ring... how was he to face the rest of his life?
“Yes, my plans for Frostflow Rouge extend beyond Weixian. This store is only the beginning.”
Even soldiers below level ten usually ate refined rice mixed with some lower-grade spirit rice; prices couldn’t drop further. In fact, the daily food consumption for professional soldiers on Rhodes Island was priced at ten silver coins.
“Bai Yuzhou, you say you’re a Taoist. What have you learned?” Xiang Li asked as they walked.
Xiao Yuyin’s heart felt as if it were aflame—not in pain or burning—but like chocolate melting into a sweet, luscious sauce under high heat.
Threats combined with temptation eventually broke Zhang Yang’s resistance; he was never one to hold firm convictions.
His eyes casually glanced downstairs. Something had happened there; the entire world seemed to freeze.

“Your Majesty, I have a plan that can decisively defeat Yuan’s army this time,” Guo Jia said with a smile as he looked at Liu Xie.
Tang Nan didn’t know why he suddenly handed over a straw. He knew nothing; it was all instinctive.
But after the chance encounter with the man, the poisonous seeds of hatred sprouted wildly like weeds, overpowering all reason.
Xia He dared not call back the fleet from the Half-Elf Empire’s waters; those were reserved for His Majesty. Instead, he ordered half of the Dragon Island forces to retreat north and engage the northern nobles in battle.
Zhang Datou was still dreaming of a promotion when Maizi rudely drenched him with a cold bucket of reality.
Shortly after, the Yinzhou nation announced to the world its ambition to embrace the entire universe. Only then did the great powers realize its immense potential. Whether in nuclear or computer technology, it was world-class. With the addition of spaceflight technology, it would be unstoppable, soaring to the skies like a tiger with wings.
This was originally a Flying Flower Sect outpost in the outer realms, now seized by the Special Enforcement Department. To secure long-term control, they had begun fortifying the valley as a stronghold.
Thinking of this, Xue Shaobai could never resort to slaughtering living beings to generate the power necessary for forging the Killing Blade. Yet now, within the Killing Descent Pit, he held a unique advantage. The resentment and hatred permeated the pit naturally, requiring no effort on his part to cultivate.
