Volume 1, Chapter 64: Do You Like Miss Jiang?

"I... I never said it was you. There are so many people surnamed Jiang in this world—"

"Xiuchen, the children and I are at the foot of the mountain. Are you coming down, or should we go up?" Gu Kai's clear voice, accompanied by laughter, traveled through the airwaves and into Mo Xiuchen's ear.

Actually, Yang Man had misunderstood Mo Feng. The reason Mo Feng had been absent-minded was that he had been pondering a single question: what should the proportion of the Miasma-Clearing Pill be in the Jade Frost Ointment?

They were not short of money now. If someone at home had called urgently saying an elder was ill and needed money, they wouldn't be wasting time suspecting this person or that.

Without waiting for the others to say anything further, he directly pulled open the door and strode out of the conference room toward the company's terrace.

However, the entire house full of servants walked on eggshells, terrified that the master would return and throw a tantrum. Everyone was well aware of Night Owl's ruthlessness.

How could she possibly want to get mixed up with Xu Yan? Had she been in good health, if the effects of the drug hadn't forced her into a stupor, wouldn't she have left long ago? How could she have ended up taking that slap from Xia Xingkong?

Bai Xiaoxiao's face was full of anticipation. If they successfully scared Cheng Jia tonight, and with Mo Xiuchen's involvement to boot—haha, just thinking about it made her excited.

Watching Wu intentionally sprawl across the sofa right in front of him without any concealment, exposing her seductively rounded and perky buttocks to him.

"Hades" is the ruler within hell, but outside of hell, he is not. He is omnipotent inside hell, where the prison ghosts cannot resist him, but what if they could escape hell?

Li Gensheng parked his bicycle and walked away without even locking it. In his opinion, such a dilapidated bicycle would only fetch scrap metal prices if sold, and buying a lock would cost more than the bike itself, making it entirely unnecessary.

"That's right, the Divine Mountain Assembly. It seems we have no choice but to make a trip there this time," Sels stood up and said in a resolute tone.

Although it was merely an avatar, seemingly an existence of little consequence, at this moment he deeply realized that he truly did not want to die. Even though he was nothing more than an avatar, destined eventually to merge back into the main body even if he survived, right here on the brink of life and death, he genuinely did not want to die.

Li Hao figured that since Lin Ya had not yet gotten off work, the assassin probably wouldn't appear just yet. Besides, anyone daring to take on a thirty-million-dollar mission had to be in the top ten of the assassin rankings, and since those people were all overseas, they couldn't possibly arrive on short notice.

Connecting these two incidents together, the president of the Dark Dragon Guild flew into a blazing rage, his explosive temper completely out of control.

First of all, anyone guilty of dereliction of duty was to be fired immediately; those supervisors who had brought all their relatives into the company were to be let go on the spot. Langya's philosophy was that the capable should hold the positions, and any form of nepotism was completely intolerable. He was investing money to do business, not running a charity to support other people's families.

If he were allowed to remain in the military camp, he could continue to use the military power in his hands to generate even more fel energy, which in turn would grant him even greater strength.

After exchanging contact information with Master Hualiu, the group set off once again. They had enjoyed themselves and seen the ocean; following the route previously arranged by Langer, they headed toward Tokyo by a different path. Along the way, stopping and playing as they went, they spent another two leisurely days.

Furthermore, Wang Yun had not aligned himself with any faction at court, a fact of which Zhao Yougong was well aware. Ever since he agreed to assist Zhao Gou and pledge his loyalty to him, he had thoroughly investigated the backgrounds of all the officials in the court, and Wang Yun was one of them. Zhao Yougong had originally planned to approach him anyway, and now the Emperor's mediation had saved him a great deal of trouble.
