City 34
It can be said that even without Zuo Qingshi, the world's original resources would have sustained it for at most a few hundred years.
Although the world did not know the extent of Zuo Jiuyou's power, they knew of his decisive and bloodthirsty nature; rumors claimed he was as terrifying as the Prime Minister.
Deep within the Endless Demon Realm, countless spaces folded upon one another. In this place of chaotic time and space, terrifying energies surged. Were it not for the intangible nature of the demons, any human with a physical form would be shredded into pieces by the powerful spatial turbulence the moment they set foot there.
"I heard the big boss behind this Queen Bar is truly something else. He’s one of the directors of the Qi Ming Group, which is currently at the height of its power! Brother Wei, tell me, isn't that impressive?" Boss Wang patted Director Wei's chest, speaking with a triumphant air as if he were the one being discussed.
The person in charge quickly changed his tune, announcing and registering Liu Ying's soul power. His heart was filled with shock; he could not believe a young man with such cultivation would join the Huang family as an outsider soul master. He never expected that even Huang Chengli, the pillar of the Huang family, could misjudge a person.
Now, Chen Ming had officially entered the Nalan Club as the "Pill King," and the "Superior Fragrant Pills" he exclusively supplied to the club had become a sensation, sought after by everyone.
As for how Guo Jialin knew he hadn't done anything improper while drunk, have you ever seen two people wake up fully dressed in their pajamas after a drunken encounter?
The scene of blood flowing freely frightened those in the bar, and as word spread moments later, Xu Yi also made his move.
"Sir, please don't praise him anymore; he’s the one who choreographed this dance," Zhang Xiaofeng said helplessly.
"Actually, to be more precise, there was no way before, but now there might be." Ximen Wuhen once again cast his gaze toward the forbidden land. In that forbidden zone, palaces floated in the air, massive ancient trees blocked out the sun, and waterfalls cascaded down from the mountain ravines.
They had originally worried they wouldn't arrive in time to rescue them, but it seemed things were not lost yet. Although the Armored Cavalry had suffered heavy casualties and were pushed to their limits, they had not yet completely collapsed.
Someone struggled to organize a viable path, but their thoughts kept falling into a hopeless loop: "No evidence + suspicious + demonic beast bloodline + spy = Lance = a threat to Icathia = Andy will never let this slide."
"Jiang Yuxiang, is that you?" Upon seeing the troops, Yang Lefan felt a surge of energy and began pounding on the room door, shouting.
"Don't listen to my brother's nonsense; he's just joking," Yang Lefan said with a smile toward Wang Yu, while constantly winking at Yao Dahai. He was terrified that the blockheaded Yao Dahai wouldn't understand his meaning and would speak out of turn, angering Wang Yu.
"Let’s go to the hospital now! I’m very close with Director Li of the surgery department. He is the best surgeon in Yibei." Hot tears welled up and spilled from Wei Kexin’s burning eyes.
"Do you know? Right now, my mind is filled with nothing but being with you. I don't want to be apart for even a minute. Xian, please, just grant me this wish." Hua Zhengfeng’s pleading gaze remained fixed on his lover, who was nearing the end of her life.
"So, when you go, you must take me with you. It doesn't matter where—as long as I am with you, everything will be fine."
"Aren't you going to take a look?" Rilad arched a brow, glancing toward the door, asking a redundant question.
"Even among mutes, there are chatterboxes who use sign language!" Lance replied, following the line of reasoning.
"What? Yu Juluo?" Yu Ming was shocked upon hearing this. He knew very well that his brother Yu Chengdu’s master was none other than Yu Juluo.
Any item capable of enhancing cultivation could be replicated, and beyond that, divine abilities, martial techniques, and more could be copied at will.
"While Logia-type fruits are strong, I personally prefer Paramecia or Zoan types," Serre said, flipping the reference book to the next page.
Serre’s words left Homing lost in thought. With great power comes great responsibility; there was no doubt that this saying held true no matter where one went.
"Master, why don't we go out together? Your disciple will treat you to a meal." Xu Ye appeared very bold, looking directly at the elder Mr. Guo and straightforwardly inviting him to dinner.
It was a house built entirely of concrete and steel, a structure that had existed before the apocalypse; despite a century passing, it remained sturdy. Beneath it, the villagers had excavated a large space used to store grain and other goods, which could also serve as a shelter in the event of beast attacks.
The entire Junhe Real Estate belonged to Chen Anhe; who had the authority to fire him? The only trouble was finding an excuse to smooth things over.
Although his own cultivation was far superior to Du Yu's, he had witnessed the methods Du Yu used to defeat Ximen Yu, how easily he had shattered his spiritual consciousness restraints, and now, he possessed a superior-grade precious artifact.
On the Changsheng, Guan Shan slammed the steering wheel, shifting from a head-on course to a ninety-degree perpendicular turn, charging toward the Changhe at full speed.
Today, he could disregard the Liu Association for his brother, but in the future, he might just as easily disregard his brother for someone else.
Yet, he never imagined that Xu Ye would reject Dong Mingzhu and the other two families so directly; it was as if he had squandered a golden opportunity.
