Chapter 57: A Sturdy Base Gone in an Instant

Meanwhile, back at the base.

Noticing that Qin Fan had not broadcasted live for an entire day, Dongfang Wan'er opened her supernatural spatial dimension to take a look.

To her surprise, it was piled high with items: massive amounts of vegetables, fresh pork, and several high-voltage electrical devices.

Han Dong stared blankly at Lin Qian’s busy figure. Once upon a time, she was one of the legendary campus belles, and the queue of suitors chasing her used to stretch from her dormitory all the way to the school gates.

For a moment, everyone looked anxiously at Han Dong. It seemed he was in for a severe beating today.

Meanwhile, the young girl had already walked up to him, grabbing him directly by the collar. "I don't care what you say; it won't affect me at all. Even if you mock me, I'll just treat it as a dog barking."

Deep down, she harbored an even more urgent hope that, after two or three episodes, Kenichi Yamamoto could genuinely turn the tables.

As for why she had been spared, it was because Uncle Jiu, Zhang Mengquan, had given her a pull, helping her escape the disaster.

Looking at the red flare exploding in the sky above the border town, Sikong Xuan looked utterly disdainful. "To think that these rabble and mob think they can surround me, Sikong Xuan—it's nothing short of a pipe dream, pure delusion." Tipping his toes lightly against the ground, he soared out of the border town.

After saying this, Gu Shaoqing turned around. His slender, upright figure bathed in the soft glow made Liang Zhi feel as though it were all a bit surreal.

A cold voice escaped Liu Tong's lips. In an instant, he had locked the wrists of the man with the goatee. The excruciating pain instantly drained the man's face of all color, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans streamed down his forehead.

Ji Yulin helped pull Lei Qianjun to his feet, and the two exchanged a smile before starting to clean up and prepare for bed.

Her intuition was telling her things were amiss. Much like the dreary weather outside, it left her feeling somewhat suffocated.

This teacher reminded her of her instructors back in high school—equally stern, echoing the same old refrains, yet strangely evoking a sense of nostalgia.

"Ah, you truly understand wine, sir! Ever since this Drunken Immortal Tower opened, I've lost count of how many times I've come here. Once you've tasted the wine here, all other wines in the world are nothing but inferior swill, no better than drinking water. Come! Drink!" The man in white also raised a bowl of wine and drained it.

"Hah, and you have the nerve to say that! Master Zhang explicitly stated that anyone leaking secrets would face military law. If not for our brotherhood, do you think I'd even bother telling you?" the dark-faced captain said with displeasure.

It had a taste somewhat similar to the spiritual tea Master Changfeng had used to entertain him earlier, but it was even more mellow, sweet, and lingering.

Shen Yizhi walked out in a huff, but the closer she got to the peach trees, the more her mood gradually calmed down.

With the Spirit-Detecting Mirror, at least they now knew Chu Jue was not the murderer of the other Internal Guard members of the Inspectorate. The killer must have been the shadowy figure who appeared at the very end.

"For the Dao Sect to view me in this light, could it be that you harbor a penchant for male-on-male affection?" Cheng Chushu suddenly felt in a buoyant mood and began to banter with Li Daozong.

"You always know how to bully people, as if there were any hidden motives," Zhen Mi's voice softened somewhat. Liu Yi's earnest expression and tone brought her a measure of comfort.

Perhaps the next floor would have people. But this particular floor was extremely opulent, with a high-end aesthetic, consisting of only a single office.

Knowing that the opponent had come for their very souls, they had fought with all their might. Yet now, the adversary was actually offering Li Chengfeng a chance to attain immortality.

This scene filled the other troops stationed on Chaos Stone Mountain with intense envy, and they all stretched out their necks to watch.

The pain subsided, and thanks to the symbiotic slime within her body, her wounds were healing rapidly.

After leaving the ruins, Zhang Han found an uninhabited island nearby and stationed a Golden Core stage clone there to serve as a spatial coordinate.

Wang Hao began cutting and moving. Carroll was still assigned to guard him, while the help defender had been switched to Dinwiddie.
