Volume 1, Chapter 26: Even If It Means Appealing Directly to the Throne

As if she knew what Chu Ming was worried about, Ling Bingqing turned around and looked at him, speaking in a cold tone.

President Li Daoping and City Lord Li Chaoyang obtained the Water Mirror recording the moment the banquet ended.

Old Shen Yang held back his laughter and said, “Wait a moment. Put it away later. None of us will tell anyone.”

“That’s far too little. Leave everything behind!” The demand had already shocked everyone, but Wang Wei shook his head and proposed an even more astounding share.

Lu Yun kept running without pause. The explosions, waves of heat, and countless screams behind him could not shake his resolve. As long as he had even one breath left, he would keep climbing. Even if he failed to reach the finish line, he could not let everyone down.

“It can perform spatial teleportation, with a maximum range of three hundred kilometers,” Halulot said with a smug smile.

“It’s impossible for me to leave everything to you. My bottom line is half. Agree, and you can take it,” Guo Sishui said, his gloomy expression suddenly turning blank.

“Master, do we really not need to act personally?” The moment the man in blue finished speaking, he regretted it. How could he have asked such a stupid question? Could it be that Long Linfei’s imposing presence had frightened him?

“Fine. If his eyesight hasn’t returned to normal after three days, just wait. I’ll smash your sign to pieces!” Hu Ruisheng said before leaving with his people.

Who ever said township enterprises couldn’t accomplish great things? Who ever said their scale couldn’t surpass that of state-owned enterprises? If possible, I really would like to foster an aviation carrier among township enterprises.

“Xi’er, I miss you so much.” Leng Wuchen could not restrain himself. He truly missed her—the scent of her, her voice, her softness, everything about her.

“Reporting to Your Highness, I can’t remember a thing!” Mu Ximei lowered her head and answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Everyone was utterly astonished. They had only heard that Pilgrimage Peak was a sacred mountain; they had never known that anyone actually lived there.

“She won’t live much longer.” The purple-haired young beauty said it with complete ease, as calmly as if she were merely discussing that evening’s dinner menu.

So what if her hands were stained with blood? So what if innocent people were dragged into it? She had long since been in hell. Why would she fear falling one level deeper?

“I won’t hold this against you for now, but if anything happens to Tiantian and the others, just see how I deal with you!” Wu Xiong abruptly changed his tone.

“Thank you, Brother Daniu. Jiagu and I left a total of two hundred thousand. Do you have any other instructions?” Xiezi asked.

The two had only been fooling around. Upon hearing Yang Lefan’s words, they immediately released each other, exchanged a glance, and suddenly burst into laughter.

“You call us despicable? How did our junior brother Gu die? Isn’t it despicable of you to win by outnumbering your opponent?” Pam shouted angrily.

Lin Hanxi knew that Lin Guozhang was hinting at the matter of establishing the Crown Prince. After careful consideration, he had ultimately placed his bet on the Fourth Prince. It was obvious that if he wished to win this enormous gamble, the process would be arduous. Yet without realizing it, Lin Hanxi had long since become trapped in the game.

“I don’t think there’s any need for that. Quite a few students are present, and they aren’t particularly wealthy. Why bother?” Anthony said.

“Teacher, you flatter me. I owe all of this to Sister Zhao and the others’ help,” Chen Xu said modestly.

Although it had clearly been no more than a light pat, Lin Liang truly felt pain, as though the force of that pat had acted directly upon his nerves. It was precisely because of this that Lin Liang suddenly realized he could not discern Zhuang Bufan’s true level of strength at all.

Upon careful examination, he found that the spiritual energy within his body differed somewhat in color from that inside the sphere of light. Once the pure white spiritual energy was transformed, it rapidly became a pale red similar to the spiritual energy within his body.

These martial practitioners were not highly accomplished in spiritual energy cultivation. When greeting others, they either performed a formal bow or pressed their palms together. This showed that they were victims of the court’s campaign to eradicate Buddhism and suppress Taoism. With no way to survive in Northern Zhou, they had gone south to seek a means of survival.

Nan Feng was somewhat surprised. He had not expected the two tribes to have so many people. A tribe with more than ten thousand members was already considered large, yet both the Xuan Clan and the Celestial Clan numbered in the tens of thousands. For so many people to live in the extreme northern icy lands testified to the vastness of that frontier.

Changxi was not flustered either. Though she was not particularly powerful, she knew that someone would protect her. With a single Liangyi Seal, Qilin deflected the force of the steel whip. The Flood Demon King gave a cold laugh, and upon seeing this, suddenly intensified his attack. The steel whip was like a black flood dragon emerging from the sea; amid its roar, it carried a terrifying pressure that had already closed in.

“I’m terribly sorry. You’ve suffered these past two days,” the judge said to me with unusual courtesy.

Early the next morning, I received a call from Uncle Zuo! Apparently, the authorities suspected him of embezzlement, and sure enough, they found three hundred thousand in cash at his home. Then they detained him.

“Fine. So long as they achieve something in the Continental University Championship a year from now, I will acknowledge his status as the heir.” The Old Madam of the Dongfang family made a momentous promise.

Su Qiaoqiao had seen this child only once. On that occasion, the child had been timid and submissive in her presence.

Every day was spent enduring the torment of alternating extremes of ice and fire. In this way, Yun Junyi’s fifth birthday finally arrived.

He was handsome and refined, with an extraordinary bearing and an air of pride between his brows. Before reaching the age of twenty, he had already entered the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm. Among the seven disciples of the Xuantian Domain Master, his cultivation might not have been the highest, but there was no question that his talent and aptitude ranked first.

“Very well.” This servant was clearly hiding something, but given her current position, she could not act recklessly. For now, she could only return with the Shen family’s servant and make further plans afterward.

Yun San glared coldly at the general and shouted. Moments later, the sound of footsteps rang out as several hundred pirates surged from behind him.

Because of the war, the house where Chen Buyi lived had long since fallen into disrepair, allowing the starlight to shine directly onto his body.

He would have to return to those days of holding only one or two hundred points, staring at the piles of wonderful items in the shop while salivating helplessly.

This infuriated Murong Jinglei. He could not understand at all why his father had sent two relatives to serve as his assistants.

Everyone assumed that the two had matters to discuss that outsiders were not meant to know about. Perhaps it even involved the relationship between their respective backgrounds—the Yu family and Returning Unity Manor.

The Sky Scum were certainly enemies. The highly intelligent Triangulum beings were enemies as well, and after Caesar took control of the Nether River, there was a very good chance that they too would become enemies.
