Chapter 16: My Home

Hua Xia, Capital International Airport.

"We're finally home!"

Zhang Liang and his companions stepped out of the airport, their excitement evident as they took in the sights around them. Not even the bitter cold wind could dampen their spirits; heaven knows how long they had been away from home.

"Come on, let's go to headquarters first."

Tong Wanxin waited for everyone to settle down before calling out. As returnees from overseas, now that they had entered the country, they had to report to the National Security Headquarters—a procedure that could not be skipped.

"Uh, do we need to change into uniforms?"

Humbly, he sought advice from Leng Jian, wondering how to win over a favored father figure and bring him home to help care for his mother.

Qu Qingran rolled her eyes at him. Among the eight factions of Kunlun, if anyone bore the deepest grudge against her, it was Qu Qingyou.

Now that Lokia was gone, both Liang and his team of Pokémon felt a deep sense of reluctance.

Another effect was the special ability to break through defenses completely. This was what Zhao Yunxuan found most exhilarating.

Earlier, Liang hadn't visited the Pokémon Center on Big Orange Island, and he hadn't expected Nurse Joy here to be so warm and talkative.

As expected, Qu Qingran's demeanor immediately influenced Qing Ziye and Bai Weiyang. Both looked at Qu Qingran with expressions of relief—as if they hadn't misjudged her. Yet Qu Qingran merely pursed her lips, unimpressed by their change in attitude.

Fortunately, Lucario managed to withstand Blastoise's High-Speed Spin attack.

Tang Qiao had been reluctant to go to school during the holidays, but since even Luo Feng suggested it, he could only agree.

Ji Weitian, upon hearing she would be presenting, hurried to find the person in charge of the new product launch.

Lu Chen, though somewhat mysterious, had managed to become the chairman of Jinling Pharmaceutical Group at such a young age. He was certainly no ordinary man.

"I want you and your son to star in this play together. Your son is just six—it's perfect, isn't it?" Li Mu had already made plans and now found an excuse to bring it up.

The spring steel spear had a firmness laced with flexibility, and as it was swung, it sliced through the air with a sharp whistle.

They had heard that locusts plagued the east, sending refugees everywhere, but hadn't expected them to reach Jiangzhou County.

Judging by the current situation, the enemy clearly had a comprehensive plan—something big was underway.

Witnessing someone descend from the sky, those who had been in heated conflict suddenly united, launching a coordinated attack straight toward the person at the center.

Ye Yuntian quickly gathered the core members of the Yanhuang Guardians Alliance—including Qin Yi, Sophie, Mu Xin, and Black Dragon—and convened an emergency meeting in the VIP ward of the hospital.

Xu Mubai, gentle and courteous, adjusted his glasses and casually pointed out a few green grasses to pair with the lilies.

Fu Zhisu looked up at the window; though it was tightly shut, she could sense what the weather was like outside.

Even knowing Tang Feng was extraordinary, he feared that so much heavy firepower would be hard to withstand.

At this moment, the healing formation's power finally came into play, steadily mending wounds.

"The ground is cold. Sister, you've already suffered serious injuries, and there are plenty of bugs and ants—I can't let you endure such hardship." Without waiting for any refusal, Tang Feng gathered Gu Wan into his arms and sat down beneath a large tree.

Su Yu felt things were finally as they should be. Though there were those who took gifts and gave nothing back, such people were rare. Most softened once they received a present. Few were as unyielding as Wan Changshuo.

Lu Qingyun had just returned from court when a servant informed him that his concubine had been struck by Yan Ruoyun. Lu Qingyun hurried immediately to the concubine's quarters.

The president of Tide Entertainment looked uncertain. With Gu Xingyuan present, he knew full well that the fifty million in breach-of-contract compensation was unattainable.

In the late stage of the Divine Ability Realm, Shang Jiu would normally be no match for his own peak form. But at this moment, the micro flying boat he controlled erupted with astonishing power, surprising even the masters at the peak of the Divine Ability Realm. Shang Yin's face was alight with joy.
