Volume One, Chapter 57: Negotiating a Partnership

The prosecutor stared at Lou Yucheng for a long, long time. Every single time, he had suffered defeat at this all-too-familiar place against the undefeated god of war sitting opposite him; yet, even with hope hanging by a thread, he was determined to make one last desperate attempt.

A murderous glint flashed across his face as the emerald curved blade in Moxu's hand emitted a sharp, piercing hum. Since Qihe, Huangxi, and Shenji still needed to be on guard against Sanqing, Cangying, and the others, Moxu decided to deal with Hongjun personally.

Hearing this, a smile curved the corners of Jun Mochan’s lips, and his gaze grew increasingly gentle.

The boy took the mouse and clicked around a few times, then looked at Qu Sen as if he were staring straight at the Buddha himself. Just as he wanted to say something to express the excitement in his heart, the sound of the door opening echoed from the entrance.

"Actually, President Zhang has been completely cornered and threatened by President Li..." Lou Yucheng then recounted everything President Zhang had told him to Xie Wanying.

Time and again, I have been targeted by Consort Liu's schemes, and every single one of those demonic auras was aimed squarely at my Underworld Ghost Seal.

Every single gateway connects to an independent space—that is the projection of the netherworld in the mortal realm, my very own hell.

"She should be arriving soon. She took the train last night, and if it's not delayed, she should be at the school around nine o'clock or so," Zhou Li replied.

Leng Qiqi could not help frowning as she walked. There were still a few days left before the seal opened, and the fierce beasts dwelling in the outer perimeter also wanted to grab a share of the leftovers; unfortunately, those with insufficient cultivation were simply slaughtered by higher-level cultivators.

I was far from unfamiliar with this shadowy figure, having previously witnessed a similar silhouette at Lin Zhendong's home.

All operations at Fengxing had been progressing smoothly, but Menglong had been affected across the board due to the Ministry of Information Industry and China Mobile strictly regulating and rectifying the SP industry. As soon as he returned to the capital, he decided to convene a board of directors meeting to formulate a response and deployment strategy in light of the current market conditions.

The two of us gazed at Teruo in silence for a long time. Meanwhile, Kaido and the others were chatting away so engrossed in their conversation that they paid Teruo no mind.

Upon hearing the name of the Myriad Blood Essence Lotus, a wave of excitement washed over him. Having followed Guhun for quite some time, he had learned a great deal about heavenly treasures and rare items, no longer remaining as ignorant as he used to be.

The canopy of heaven was trembling and unsettled. Even aboard the early warning aircraft flying ten thousand meters high in the air, they could feel the air currents turning as heavy as lead and iron. Higher up in the atmosphere, the vortices formed by the convergence of magical fields rippled and churned, brewing an unimaginably terrifying power.

"Very well, let's leave the investigation to Shojiro and Philip," Narumi Sokichi said.

Sitting quietly would inevitably make one the target of public criticism and the focus of everyone's resentment, yet stubbornly declining would only provoke the First Madam's dissatisfaction.

Yet right around this time, discussions regarding the Xin-1 smartphone gradually began to multiply.

However, even if a single cancer cell is left behind within the body, it will continue to divide and proliferate.

Wang Hao straightened his expression; he knew that when Lin Feng spoke in this manner, it meant there was a matter of utmost importance to entrust to him.

"Please rest assured, Grandfather, as long as I draw breath, I will complete the mission," Lei wiped his slightly moistened eyes, straightened his posture, and replied.

With the matters regarding Qimeng settled, Lin迪 felt a temporary sense of relief. Perhaps, when necessary during the game development process, he might still need to offer some specific suggestions, but that would be a matter for the future.

"Kill!" The next instant, accompanied by a mutual glance of calculated intent and the thunderous approach of cavalry charges, two roars that served as battle signals erupted from both of their mouths almost simultaneously.

Chiyou merely smiled faintly without a word. With one hand resting on Xuanyuan's shoulder, he pulled Xuanyuan along as they walked over to Rongrong's side.

Although he could not fathom why the Yellow Turban Army had chosen to conceal their strength initially, it was an undeniable fact that they were now launching a full-scale offensive.

Yet when he heard this music, a strange expression suddenly surfaced within his hollow eyes.

The figure in black strode toward Xiao Lan and the others, and the next moment, seeing the bloodstains still lingering on the ground, he realized that the previous intruder had already been dealt with by Li Xin.

Guan Xiaojun sometimes thought that if his life hadn't been disrupted by human traffickers, he might well have qualified for admission into the modern gifted youth classes.

We inhabit entirely different worlds, and I have no desire to be drowned in the murky waters of the entertainment industry. As a financial news anchor, I only need to report my professional duties accurately and flawlessly; I have no wish to get involved in anything else.

Jin Zhonghui lowered his wine glass and nodded at Lei. "No problem, just a bit shaken up. Once her emotions stabilize in a moment, she'll be fine. Suchat is inside protecting them." Knowing that Lei was referring to Kelly and Fuda Meilingzi when he said "them," Jin Zhonghui answered without a second thought.

The people in the lobby looked at one another in dismay, at a complete loss for what to do. The newcomer spoke with full breath and composed demeanor, not resembling someone who had been injured—so what did he mean by offering help?

Mumu was on the verge of tears. "I applied foundation, how am I supposed to wash it off?" If I wash it off, I won't be able to survive in the Divine Academy anymore; once it's washed off, what they love won't be the White Wolf, but me.
