Chapter 47

However, Wang Shouchao dared to bet his life on the fact that he harbored no deeper, improper intentions toward Trina.

"Be a good girl." Seeing Yan Xiangnuan glare at him in annoyance, Jin Weizhou's thin lips curved slightly as he raised his large, warm hand to ruffle her hair.

The entire training ground was suddenly struck silent, as if hit by a pause button. After a moment, a wave of noisy chatter erupted once more.

Hearing Chang Li speak so bluntly, Su Yuxi felt somewhat embarrassed. She lowered her hands, clasped them behind her back, lowered her head, and cast her gaze left and right as if searching for another excuse.

With that, Shen Sanbai continued walking forward with the group, remaining silent and lacking his usual lively demeanor.

"Understood, Dr. Mark." At this moment, Vera's sweet yet emotionless voice rang out.

Although this man had done something that made her extremely, terribly angry this time, since she had chosen to forgive and understand, she would not dwell on it any longer. Let the past be the past, and as long as it was not repeated in the future, it would suffice.

"I ran into Su Qiang back when school started and we were doing military training," Yan Xiangyang said without hiding anything, complaining to Yan Xiangnuan as the memory came to mind.

Having cultivated for so many years, she also vaguely understood in her heart that certain opportunities were not so easy to accept. Whatever one gained, the price paid might be double the reward; perhaps she was not merely losing a wish, but rather escaping a catastrophe.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Gandon." Hearing Zhao Qian's words, Zou Rong and the others quickly greeted Gandon.

Earlier, they had imagined Earth to be far too terrifying. As it turned out, Earth was merely a paper tiger—no, to be precise, Ning Tianlin was a paper tiger, a completely isolated commander with no real backing whatsoever.

"Don't misunderstand, I was just helping your elders exercise their bodies," Zhao Qian said with a straight face, spouting nonsense.

He could alter time, space, and matter at will, ruling over everything within the world. Finding the hidden Heaven-Swallowing Beast was as easy as turning the palm of his hand.

Had it not been for Adela's earlier remark about doing specific things only at specific times, Chen Balian would never have played such a trick.

Strands of profound law energy were applied to various weapon-crafting materials. In the blink of an eye, a nine-tiered pagoda emitting multicolored light suspended itself in mid-air. Formations were imprinted into the pagoda one by one, and instantly, dark clouds rolled across the sky accompanied by booming thunder.

The external sensors had already transmitted the roar of the MS engines increasing output and initiating their thrusters. The approaching red mono-eye stood out exceptionally clearly amidst the thinning mist, and the next second, an opponent wielding a heavy slashing blade burst through the fog.

"Understood, Major Dranzhalt." Lucien vanished in a flash, leaving Yang and the major facing each other in the building's corridor.

The only one who might possibly have wanted to eliminate the two of them, the Western Heavenly Taibai Xing, had long since been obliterated by the Six Paths. Knowing that there would be no further trouble along the way, Shiyue and the Six Paths simply left their true bodies behind while each dispatching an avatar to fly ahead.

"Stay right here and provide us with support later. Wild Bull and I will sneak in first to prevent them from shutting the city gates!" Chen Liang instructed the other eight.

Before he could finish speaking, Mo Weiyu turned around in anger, slammed her foot on the accelerator, and sped the car away.

Yet the reality was that two years ago, the two of them had been at the very same realm. How could such a massive gap have emerged in the span of just two short years?

However, Meng Hao took his goodwill to heart; once the matters here were concluded, he would certainly return the favor with some benefits.

He abruptly reached out and grabbed, conjuring a giant spiritual hand that hauled Xue Wuhun's body straight out of the bloody mist.

Mu Xiyun and Shang Qi both stopped their playful antics and pricked up their ears, listening intently toward the depths of the cave.

Mentioning his father, Song Tingfan forced back his tears. Lin Qiao reached out to stroke his back, while Song Tingfan looked at her with reddened eyes.

Just as she was enduring this difficult moment, the phone rang again. The caller ID displayed an unfamiliar number, as she rarely gave out her private number to others.

In his excitement, he forgot the distance, flying further and further away. At times he soared into the clouds, at times he darted through gaps between trees. Unawares, night fell, and he lost his direction, forgetting the path by which he had come.

Chen Youlian chattered on endlessly, while Xiang Sisi acted as though she heard nothing at all, absorbed in clacking away at the computer keyboard.

Taking a closer look, Lin Qiao spotted a fissure not far away. She ran over to look, and saw Song Tingfan standing down below, though it was impossible to tell if he was injured.

Over the past two years, the resources of Jiangnan had been abundant, and every year the imperial court purchased large quantities of grain and forage from here to transport to the bitter borderlands. Unfortunately, officials and merchants here colluded in corruption. While the silver was pocketed, the grain supplied was shoddy and substandard! The provisions sent to the border were not only of poor quality, but their quantities were also halved.

After hearing this, Qiao Dongmei lowered her voice and told me that her nephew had come this time to take a look at me. If he liked me, he would marry me into their family, boasting about how wealthy the Qiao family was and how promising her nephew was.

Whenever she listened to a song, she would thoroughly research its lyrics, carefully cross-referencing them and making strange marks.

An Xia didn't say much more, turning to face the corner of the wall and using her body as cover to retrieve the ointment she had just made from her space. Earlier, when she saw that the situation at the entrance was unclear, she had tucked it away in her space, and now it was time to take it out and show them.

Yet now, Jiang Liangchen had used an entirely different method to trample the things he was most proud of deep into the dirt.
