Chapter 45: Tuan Tuan's Mother Appears
If all else fails, the only option left is to send Su Su into action. Of course, this doesn't mean having Su Su go into the ocean to fight sea beasts, but rather having her help trick that lazybones, the Golden Arowana, into doing some work.
We took a boat to the nearest airport, but since the maritime routes were completely blockaded, this boat was not meant to be a means of transport to Coastal City.
As noon approached, although the sun wasn't as piercingly fierce as in midsummer, it still radiated immense heat. Yet, the people present gradually felt a hint of chill. This silent atmosphere was so oppressive that some could barely breathe, and a few were already shifting their feet, wanting to leave this place.
However, Zhu Yu was still unsatisfied. She wanted her brother to be as handsome and dashing as he used to be, and she had even specially commissioned craftsmen to design a pair of prosthetic feet that could be fixed onto his original severed legs. But before they were ready, Weng Rui and the others had returned.
This time he was truly enraged, so he directly sent people over to thoroughly sort things out. As for the previous taxes, he had intended to let them cancel out any favors owed, so that from then on they would be even, with business and personal matters strictly separated.
Upon careful reflection, given the deep heritage of the Dragon and Monster clans, it was nothing strange for them to have advanced celestial-stage powerhouses who had touched the threshold of the Great Beings. Moreover, the fact that new Great Beings were currently being born could also explain why the Dragon and Monster clans had been so well-behaved during this period.
Seeing that the avatar-formed World Heart of the Myriad Phenomena Realm was intentionally ignoring his words, Jiuyan grew extremely furious.
This Tianlingzi was indeed formidable. Under Weng Rui's sudden assault, although he was forced into a somewhat flustered state in the first two moves, on the whole, he weathered the danger safely. By the third move, he instantly leveled the playing field, and by the fourth, he nearly severed half of Weng Rui's arm.
"No, those six contestants are singers that several record companies planning to withdraw are trying to get into the show to gain some prestige through cooperation with Mango TV. If nothing unexpected happens, they can at least secure four spots in the top ten," Lin Zisheng replied.
Originally, Mo He's refining of the ink-jade bamboo staff had been stuck at the third spiritual restriction, unable to be elevated to a mid-grade spiritual weapon. After all, the method Daoist Qingmei used to upgrade his own turquoise bamboo staff to a mid-grade spiritual weapon held little reference value for Mo He.
"Wushuang, don't you think this section of the road is a bit too quiet?" Heiya also sensed that something was amiss, and then whispered to Wushuang.
Yeluo looked at the four people behind her who were gradually growing tired, and as she felt a soreness and pain in her own hands as well, she frowned.
After thinking about it for a long time, she felt it wouldn't work. First, assuming there was no land, and Chairman Li had no money either, a second project could not be gotten off the ground.
Elder Yan's mouth twitched slightly, and his gaze involuntarily shifted toward Zhu Jiujie.
As his booming shout rang out, the White Dragon Sovereign beside him also flashed and retreated rapidly, directly pulling back thousands of feet along with Dan Xiongba before barely managing to steady his stance, looking back with lingering fear at the situation a thousand feet away.
She wrote down the names mentioned in the booklet, intending to have people thoroughly investigate these individuals.
"Is this still Shizi Village?" She didn't answer me, so I could only ask weakly like this.
As that burst of loud laughter echoed, the face of the solitary Lingxu Painting God hanging in mid-air was instantly covered with deep sorrow. His two eyes stared fixedly at the soon-to-be-formed giant painting of the Nine Infants, and his ethereal figure trembled slightly.
"Wife!" Shangguan Lan immediately pushed Yeluo away, then grabbed Yeluo's hand to check her wounds.
The entire umbrella exuded a hint of mystery, making it impossible to see through. It seemed both fragile and incredibly sturdy.
"Stop, all of you!" The old palace master roared at this moment, his voice more deafening than heavenly thunder. A vast and overwhelming pressure descended upon the entire scene, startling everyone into trembling silence, none daring to utter a sound.
Cave dwellings, and the brick carts on the path in front of them, each cart pulled by a pair of horses. The village steward glanced at them, having no desire to go into the courtyard for a drink of water or to sit inside.
After a prolonged battle of attrition, the mad bull gradually regained his confidence. His lurking courage surged again, and he began to provoke Zhu Bajie with words.
The steward held the scale in one hand and adjusted the weight with the other, saying, "How cheap is this meat?" He glanced toward the other end, looking for the middle-aged man, but the man was nowhere to be seen, likely having slipped into the alley.
Taking a deep breath, Li Xuan said, "Fine, then add another five million to him! Let's get the formula for the Bewitching Lip Fragrance first!" Things had reached this point, so it was better to secure it in one go.
"Shoot them down." The Northern Captain's words were concise, forceful, and left no room for discussion. The tone was so uncompromising that no one doubted for a second that a refusal would result in being pierced into a hedgehog by feathered arrows, rolling down, falling to one's death, and turning into a dead hedgehog.
Over the Pacific Ocean, the sea stretched out boundlessly as tornadoes rose, churning up water spouts that thrust straight into the sky.
"What are you afraid of?" This demonic whisper reached the ears of the grassland warrior, sinking deep into his heart to take root. His teeth chattered, and the downward momentum of the saber in his hand slowed to a crawl in an instant.
Thus, while all the tea drinkers in the tea stall had fled in panic, only Fuxi remained seated there, leisurely sipping his tea and watching this chaotic brawl unfold like a grand drama.
"Who is calling us?" A thin man dressed in white leaped out and asked with a smile, wearing a tall hat inscribed with the words "You're Here Too."
