Chapter 59: Old Wang's Victory

Xu Ying looked down to see Old Wang, the king cobra, accompanied by another king cobra noticeably larger than itself, along with three finger-thick baby snakes.
In the snake kingdom, females tend to be larger than males.
Has Old Wang found a mate?!
Xu Ying was utterly astonished: "Holy crap, Old Wang, you move fast! In just a single night, not only have you found a mate, but you've already got three kids!"
Old Wang flicked its tail, its upper body swaying proudly in a mesmerizing manner: [Well, look at—
As time ticked by, the sound of battle and artillery fire outside did not diminish; instead, they grew even more intense. After more than two hours, the sound of heavy footsteps echoed into the prefectural yamen.
After chatting with them casually, she realized that she hadn't arrived late, but rather the author hadn't arrived yet, which left Liu Xiling immensely disappointed.
Speaking of the righteous and indignant Chen Ji, he was much the same, and it was precisely for this reason that Chen Ji had publicly engaged in a war of words with Japanese and South Korean media outlets. Had it not been for this incident, those South Korean keyboard warriors would not have gone out of their way to hire assassins.
It finally returned to the gaming world and was overjoyed, soaring and circling around Lin Jian with an expression of boundless delight.
On the twenty-first day of the eighth month in the third year of Chongzhen, fifty li south of Xuanhua City, thirty li west of Gubeikou.
"None of the above, but the situation has indeed taken a new turn," Hill replied briefly, then fell silent. Hearing this unexplainable silence, Fury's expression instantly turned playful.
Qin Kun looked around; shipwrecks were scattered everywhere like a ghost domain. If his eyes weren't deceiving him, a few of the wrecks still had lights glowing on them. This place... was clearly a ghostly sea.
Because over these past few days, the citizens had witnessed firsthand the completely different conduct of the Yong'an Fortress soldiers compared to the former military households. The soldiers of Yong'an Fortress had never disturbed the people; instead, during their spare time, they helped the locals with chores and farming, and laughter and joy filled every corner.
After several attempts, Wu Que discovered a deeply disheartening fact: he was completely unable to move his Three Suns Anchor even an inch, nor could he move that faint white flame. With neither of them able to budge, how on earth could he fuse his Three Suns Anchor with this artifact spirit?
Even while being certain they would not breach the contract, out of caution, the vast majority of people would never sign a contract with liquidated damages running into tens or hundreds of millions.
Xuanwen's words carried not a trace of emotion. With the gale howling, the scorching cyan flame on his spear seemed capable of scorching space itself—supremely tyrannical and arrogant, yet it felt like a knife driving straight into the opponent's body.
Only after she finished feeding Luo Yunshu did Chu Yue realize that she seemed to have become a bit gentler, though she herself had no idea how that had come to be.
Her intention to drop the subject was already glaringly obvious, yet this man remained completely oblivious to social cues.
At the same time, her hatred for Lin Jiu deepened further. Had the Management Bureau not stubbornly insisted on competing with that Lane for the shop, her younger brother would not have gotten into a dispute with Lane over it, and ultimately, all of this was Lin Jiu's fault.
White Deer Town had only a single mine, occupied by four different parties who maintained some contact while remaining mutually hostile.
Everyone in the capital who heard this imperial decree felt a shock reverberate through their hearts. As the golden decree gradually dissolved into nothingness, those standing beneath it harbored vastly different thoughts and agendas.
Anything said now would just be taking advantage of the situation, so Protector Qin naturally wouldn't give them a pleasant expression. However, it seemed that while their ages had increased, the thickness of their faces had kept pace, so they didn't mind at all and instead turned their gaze to observe the situation on the ground.
"Don't come any closer!" Lu Zhaoling's cheeks flushed red as she looked into Shen Fengjiu's affectionate and infatuated gaze, hastily reaching out to block him.
If things truly went as Jia Zhengyu suggested, with the three of them investing one hundred and sixty billion to develop new energy vehicles, the profits would indeed be quite substantial.
"You just came from Tongxian; have you seen anyone from the Special Investigation Department?" Feng Xiang leaned in close to Lu Zhaoling with a mysterious air and inquired.
