Chapter Forty-Nine: Deal

Su Ruhui noticed that his manner of address was no longer as courteous as before, and her heart immediately sank. She cast a calming glance at Qingque, then bowed to accept the command, rose to smooth her skirts, and followed Zhang An inside.

Mao Leyan, furious and desperate, put away her dagger and slapped Consort Yun hard across the face. Consort Yun's body swayed, falling to the ground, and Ling'er hurried forward to help her up.

Wang Yue had heard rumors that almost all the underground factions in Shanghai conducted their large-scale conflicts here; it was secluded, devoid of people, and after someone died, they simply buried them on the spot.

Long Shaoyan quickly rolled up from the ground, brushing his hands as he stood—his mother always said everyone liked clean, well-behaved children. At once, he seized Helan Yao's arm; his eleventh sister had told him that one's beloved must be cherished and held tightly in one's palm.

The next morning at nine o'clock, the soldiers of "Headquarters" were fully armed and ready for action.

"Borrow him for a month and a half—Brother Chenlong, I wonder if you'll agree?" Fu Jianbo stared at Chenlong, smiling as he spoke.

Fei Bird was facing off against a demonic monkey. Compared to other demonic beasts, the demonic monkey's physiology was closer to humans, making it an excellent starting point for practice.

Thus, even if mobilization was necessary, it would be done in secret. But secretly transporting weapons and equipment took considerable time; to reach the required amount for "Nightfall Dawn" without detection would take at least half a year.

Having witnessed Sun Zhuo's dunking ability, Gasol dared not challenge him head-on and let Sun Zhuo score.

"Heh, when the Psionic Academy is destroyed, the entire Alliance of Heroes will fall into our hands. Who will be left to slaughter each other? Ha ha ha!" Li Zhao laughed loudly.

Listening to the colonel's furious shouts, the other soldiers aboard the helicopters remained entirely unmoved.

It had been some time since Luo Xinran was seen; when Qin Yue met her, she felt unexpectedly warm, though Luo Xinran's expression was sharp and clearly intent on stirring trouble.

"Wait!" Lu Haoran called out to them, casting a glance at Tang Shuihua, only to find she hadn't grasped his meaning at all and looked back at him in confusion.

She hadn't mentioned to her mother that Xiao Bai had come. If her parents knew, it would only be because Aunt Bai Jie and Xiao Zhiyuan had told them.

Tang Dynasty's unfamiliar sword squad was an evolution from the Great Qin's cavalry, but since the cavalry had become infantry, the squad still retained strong advancing power, though it lacked the overwhelming impact of the Great Qin cavalry.

His son was injured in a treasured place, but for the Regent's son, that was nothing but filth.

As an original resident of Jianghe City, he knew exactly how many ordinary people lived in the old city.

At their first meeting, the other party handed him a copy of the Shen City Daily, leaving him baffled as to their intentions.

In truth, Bei Yi hadn't eaten well, either; this time she paid attention to details and noticed Ye Qingyu would glance at her even while talking to those men.

Had he known, he would have preferred his tribe be annexed by the Ghostfang tribe rather than embrace the Shaman Sect.

During this time, he encountered the local Bertrand gang, and Shima was their hired Nen-powered bodyguard.

The north was poor, but resources were not scarce, especially minerals and mountain goods, which were abundant.

Yang Li's face was filled with despair; she spoke timidly, as if negotiating with Song Zhizhi.

If anything seemed off, she could alert her associates, so they would postpone any planned illegal acts and avoid being caught in the act.

Thus, the particle could only reach the nucleus. However, wasn't there a potential barrier around the nucleus? Could the particle pass through it?

History proved that any force or organization was powerless before the crushing might of the state apparatus.

Of course, people recognized only domestic "Dell"—if it was a licensed or imported product, the fees would multiply dramatically.

Just that morning, Li Jianwan, newly appointed as commander, shouted loudly to restore order among the unruly soldiers.

Wan Qizi let out a miserable cry, seemingly gravely wounded. Meng Ruyan, Gui Jiu, and the others seized the opportunity, preparing to kill Wan Qizi.

But saving someone isn't done like this; rushing in blindly without any understanding is foolish. Han Le'er had never done anything so reckless since she could remember.

Chu Zheng saw his mother was furious, thought for a moment, then turned to pour a glass of water and placed it on the tea table in front of her.

This wasn't exaggeration; it was the truth. The strength of the sword intent was already established across the nine provinces.

Yilan thought bitterly that he must be frightened, so she stretched her smile wider and spoke softly, "Go inside and sleep; it's chaotic outside, nothing worth watching," her words full of comfort.

Thus, for half a month in the fields of Beiguang Prefecture, people could be seen running back and forth—sometimes gathering, sometimes dispersing. Qingfeng Battalion sent enough troops to ensure their safety.

Han Qiaoqiao glared angrily at Lin Wushuang, though she was a bit nervous herself. This was the first time she'd shown such assertiveness before Lin Wushuang; if Lin Wushuang didn't buy it, her bluff would be exposed at once.

Third Brother Fu Feixing pointed his finger like a sword, slashing diagonally at the sweeping leg; with a soft sound, the finger sword cut the opponent's leg, a flash of red burst forth, and blood splattered.

Thinking it over, Chen Feng couldn't make sense of it, so he decided not to waste his brain cells; after all, wasn't this just fine as it was?

Vice Captain Chen Xiao and Captain Luo acted similarly. For the first three or four days, they left one mecha pilot and Yilan to guard the camp, taking the mechanic and doctor outside. After a few days, finding it safe, from the fifth day onward they brought Yilan out as well to broaden her horizons.
