Chapter 42: Messing with the Wrong Person

"We don't know each other," Fu Luoning said, looking down at him with condescension. "But you've offended someone you shouldn't have."

Gu Feiyi was dazed, her consciousness already beginning to blur.

Fu Luoning pulled a card from her bag and tossed it onto Gu Feiyi. "There are one hundred thousand yuan on this card, and the money Xiao Jin gave you is included as well. The rest will cover your medical expenses. If you ever go looking for trouble with him again or take even one step toward the hospital, I will make sure you don't live to see another day!"

Her gaze was dark and sharp, causing Gu Feiyi to stare in shock.

"Things have come to this, so there's nothing more to say. The president has already decided to step down. As long as you all make your stance clear, I won't make things difficult for you," Nakamura said, looking at those who had remained silent all along.

Lin Chong said nothing. Matters like this were better left for them to adapt to on their own; as a master, he couldn't step in and do everything for them.

"What bounty?" Lin Chong asked curiously. If he remembered correctly, he shouldn't have offended the Blood Saber Sect in this realm.

The person who greeted Lin Chong was named Du Bo, a man whose family home had been demolished for urban development, leaving him with three properties. Consequently, he stopped studying after graduating from high school, solely intent on finding an easy position to coast by in. They had met while doing summer jobs back in college. The guy actually had ability, but he was simply too fond of playing.

She was utterly destitute. If she hadn't received quite a few spiritual rice cakes from the food workshop and hunted down a few low-tier fierce beasts, more than half of her storage ring would have remained empty.

Although a certain part still hadn't grown back, leaving Karen quite dismayed, being able to exchange 30 billion territory energy for such power was still quite substantial.

During the meal, Zhong Guoquan couldn't help but notice the occasional look of adoration sent his way by the young woman beside him. It was just that he was a man in his twenties with a child, hardly worthy of such a gaze from her.

"What—what do you want? I am a monarch's son, how dare you kill me?!" Dongfang Yu stared straight at Haotian, forcing himself to speak loudly in an arrogant tone, but what he didn't know was that his slightly trembling voice had already betrayed the fear deep within his heart.

Xu Zhongjun, who had been practicing abstinence for so long, was now so worn out by the child's crying and fussing that he lost all other thoughts, his mind entirely focused on coaxing the baby.

"Go to hell!" With a furious roar, Zhao Donglin thrust forward with a hand-blade. At that moment, a brilliant fluorescent light burst forth from his hand, making it as sharp as a steel saber. With a single downward strike, True Person Miaoshou would likely have been split in two.

Having been busy all day, Yu Wangfei finally waited until the medical clinic closed its doors. She tidied up her things, preparing to go to the backyard to switch back with Yu Wangfei, when suddenly a large arm wrapped around her waist, lifting her up entirely.

She felt as though her worldview, already reconstructed by the zombie crisis, had collapsed once again.

Although the old village chief was also accustomed to drinking boiled water, he had never encountered a situation where drinking raw water caused large-scale stomachaches.

He regarded Yu Wangfei's safety as more important than his own life, and therefore would never allow her to do anything that jeopardized her survival just for his sake.

Yet he understood very well in his heart that since Lin Tian dared to make a move against him, he definitely had absolute certainty and confidence. He had no idea where Lin Tian got such courage, nor did he know where Lin Tian managed to acquire those fine treasures.

As for the top-grade Foundation Establishment pill, the "Mending Heaven Pill," he had attempted it seven times, all ending in failure.

She still had that shred of backbone. Although she knew that the dining expenses at this Western restaurant were not cheap, and compounded by her current financial difficulties, no matter what, she could lose anything except her backbone.

Zhang Lao-liu's expression looked rather unpleasant; he knew the only variable within the clan was the Patriarch Zhang standing right before him.

If Old Master Tang were truly offended, this shop would likely have to close down, and he would have no choice but to withdraw from the jade gambling world altogether.

In this way, Heavenly Sword City was completely transformed from the private territory of the Shangguan family into the second major city of the Vast-Flown Sword Sect.

Madam Wang only felt wronged, and just as she was about to argue a few words, she caught sight of Madam Cao on the opposite side looking at her with a half-smile. Over the past few days, believing she had accomplished her task, she had come to the mother-in-law's place every day to boast and claim credit, frequently squeezing Madam Cao out. Now, asking her to claim she had never been to the Zou family was indeed something she could not bring herself to say.
