Volume 1, Chapter 47: Leaving in Anger, Encounter with Han Feng!

"Waaah! My Shadow Silver Wolf, my Shadow Panther...!"

Right now, Gao Zhipeng was weeping bitterly.

To put it without exaggeration, these pets meant more to him than anything else in the world.

The Gao family had spared no expense to prepare six lord-tier pets for him, and their value was comparable to several pieces of platinum-grade equipment!

"Hahahaha...!"

Witnessing this scene, the crowd was momentarily stunned, and then burst into deafening roars of laughter!

Gao Zhipeng, a scion of the Gao family—one of Jiangcheng's four major tycoons—had turned out to be a giant baby. It was utterly comical.

"Holy crap, what am I seeing? Gao Zhipeng actually got beaten to tears by Lin Yi!"

"This is way too absurd! I'm dying of laughter, definitely the funniest thing this year!"

"Actually, if you think about it, it's not surprising, whoever..."

"Hmph, as long as you know to be scared." The sharp-tongued person said to himself. Perhaps seeing that Wang Wei had been greeting him with a smiling face all along, he had let down his guard? With a *swish*, he opened his folding fan and waved it casually.

"Pfft, I won't do it. I'm a thoroughly law-abiding citizen now, and by the end of the year, I'm planning to go collect the Outstanding Law-Abiding Citizen Award," Zhao Ziyue said with a deadpan expression.

While diligently nurturing the Amethyst Crystal Bees, Lin Tianyang did not neglect his own cultivation. Although the Heavenly Demon Body-Refining Technique was extremely difficult to practice, with the aid of the Bone-Melting Pill, Lin Tianyang managed to successfully master the first layer after thirty years.

After all, no one could have anticipated that Ning Quan actually possessed a firearm, and that he carried it with him everywhere. Although the law explicitly prohibited private firearm ownership, many wealthy families in the country actually had a habit of collecting firearms at home.

Xie Chang'an was immensely impressed by Liu Peng's words and his magnanimity. A moved expression appeared on his face, and after giving Liu Peng a serious look, he sat down as well.

"Reached the end of his life" was Cicero's euphemistic phrasing; he tried his best to avoid using the word "executed" for someone being hanged.

This legendary Christian general, who supposedly would call any mother who fed him his mother, remained as folksy as ever. His unpretentious appearance formed a sharp contrast with Yang Hongsen.

The members of the welcoming delegation were unimpressed; this fellow didn't look meticulous at all, yet he dared to brag about himself so much. Just as Li Mosi finished speaking, the second person stepped up. Having spoken only a few words, large beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his face, and his features distorted strangely.

"Is it done already? This stuff looks so filthy, can it really wash faces and clothes?" The mother asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Lin Tianyang touched the ice encasing them. With just a light brush of his finger, his entire palm was instantly covered in a layer of frost. Clearly, the chill had reached a terrifying degree—no wonder these True Immortal beings were frozen solid and utterly unable to break free.

The view before the two of them was pitch black; nothing could be seen. If they activated their shield barriers, they would undoubtedly be instantly vaporized into nothingness in a split second.

With Dayou Laojiu and Meng Xi cooperating with all their might, the white light of the Chaotic Primordial Infinity Formation grew increasingly solid and dense.

A desolate and mournful flute song resounded across the heavens and earth, carrying an unrivaled sense of heroic tragedy and forming an overwhelming wave of sound.

Illuminated by the crimson spiritual energy avatars of several Fire Bamboo Swordsmen scattered in the distance, the crowd finally caught a glimpse of the full appearance of that grey shadow.

This person had deliberately concealed his combat power, and he certainly harbored no good intentions. Although on the surface he appeared extremely respectful to the sword-carrying youth, in secret he was likely holding back a bellyful of resentment, gearing up to make the latter suffer a massive loss.

Compared to the serenity of Tiger Head Mountain, the nights at Black Mountain Wolf and Loyal Righteous Mountain were not nearly as peaceful.

He then went back to slaughtering bugs on his own, sending body fluids splashing everywhere. He even seemed to do it intentionally in Musheng's direction, which really made Musheng extremely angry.

Ye Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, deeply shocked in his heart. This was the heaviest injury he had suffered since coming to Earth.

He looked up at the sky once more. The ten suns hanging in the firmament were striking, and the spiritual energy in the air seemed far denser than that of the Xuantian Sect.

During military recruitment, those of shorter stature were naturally treated as inferior. For instance, in the recruitment of cavalry, failing to meet the height requirement meant absolute disqualification.

Xilong Batian gave the bead a slight push, sending it right in front of Ziyang. Inscribed upon the bead were the words "Sacred Lizard Divine Emperor Bead."

[Devouring the Heavens, Saber Piercing the Nine Firmaments!] Demonic energy enveloped the heavens and earth, condensing into a gigantic saber. A majestic and overwhelming force surged forth from within his body, merging into one with the God-Devouring Saber. Zhu Yuanlong could feel the power unleashed by the God-Devouring Saber as if it were about to cleave the entire palace apart.

Everyone was merely amazed by Xu Qingjie's transformation, completely unaware that all of this was thanks to Ye Zhixing.

"Let me do it!" Leng Xuyang stood up, proactively taking the curtains from Xiaobai's hands. He wanted to present himself in a better light in front of her; hanging curtains was the best way to showcase a man's physical curve and beauty—how could he miss such a prime opportunity?

Amidst everyone's envious gazes, he equipped the Steel Fortress and the Scorching Shadow Berserk Blade. The rugged battle saber instantly made the twilight look like a majestic god of war.

"Good sister-in-law!" Xuyang immediately cheered up, sitting down to wait for the servant to serve the steaming hot wontons before devouring them heartily.

"Today, I shall slay you right here!" The Gold Demon's eyes once again erupted with golden light, and a golden beam from the great saber in its hand shot straight into the clouds. "Demon Wind Slash!" A massive blade Qi, as if aiming to tear the firmament apart, slashed toward Zhu Yuanlong.

At this thought, Yang Qiang no longer dared to act presumptuously. He forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart while simultaneously circulating the Daoist profound arts passed down by Daodian, plunging his mind into a state of unruffled stillness.

"Village Chief Zhuang has been stabbed by an assassin, and he's in critical condition right now!" The moment those words left my mouth, the teacup in Siyu's hand crashed to the floor with a loud *clatter*, leaving her frozen in place, unable to move.

Though all of them looked bizarre, their overall structures were mostly similar to humans, possessing basic facial features and limbs. Perhaps this was just the common biological genetic blueprint of the Milky Way galaxy.

The next day, Chen Langya gave a call to Zuo Zhuang. This fellow was already ecstatic beyond measure, having long prepared men and goods to wait in the abandoned factory workshop in the western suburbs. Meanwhile, Chen Langya and Han Qilin waited until the appointed time before heading over.
