Chapter 59: Parallel Universe (Part 5)
Just a few short remarks opened Xue Qiandai’s eyes to an entirely different possibility: the commercialization of delivery coffee, expanding into corporate accounts and group purchasing.
"I couldn't remember, he just looked a bit familiar. My head hurts, my face hurts, my arm hurts, everything hurts! It's even harder to remember now!" White Rabbit said anxiously as she stepped out of the elevator.
"This is our only lead right now. Weren't you looking for your uncle? If this thread breaks, you'll never have another chance!" Wang Wei said.
"Bang!" *Could I have come to the wrong place?* Seeing this sight, he hurriedly lowered the curtain and retreated.
White Rabbit slowly peeled off the red garment from his body, revealing the sword wound on his shoulder, fierce and bloody, painful just to look at.
"Absurd! There are so many exotic beasts with innate divine abilities in this world, how can anyone arbitrarily claim this is Huang Qi's Pegasus divine ability?" a Shanhai official said with dissatisfaction.
A strange smile played at the corners of Xu Chuan's lips as he suddenly brought his hands together. A flash of purple-golden lightning flickered across his palms and vanished without a trace, as if it had never appeared at all.
This footage came from the surveillance of the Youyue Club. Because Gu Fan had previously intervened as a lawyer and been denied access to the club's surveillance, Huo Yunchao had directly hacked into the club's internal monitoring system. However, after skimming through it briefly at the time, he had found nothing unusual. Today, his target was very specific: to find the man wearing an ambergris bracelet on his wrist.
Silver Elephant Group was not only home to an entertainment company, but also a diversified publicly listed corporate group spanning real estate, hotels, finance, jewelry, film, catering, retail, and many other fields. Silver Elephant Entertainment was merely one of its subsidiaries.
The reason Su Zhe still defied public opinion and stubbornly expended vast financial and material resources to maintain this isolated city beyond the frontier naturally stemmed from profound and far-reaching intentions.
If she had chosen to sever her relationship with Pei Moyan back then in order to chase her dreams, only for those dreams to ultimately shatter, she would surely regret it to the core—though it would be entirely useless now.
A mouthful of blood spewed from the village chief's mouth as he rolled across the ground, collapsing in a wretched state, unable to pull himself up for a long time.
Jin Feng paced back and forth in the room, but after a moment, he still couldn't resist walking out to the balcony to call his subordinate.
If he were to continue arguing, wouldn't that imply that his own son's title as the Protector of the Country General was equally undeserved?
Having already walked to the brink of annihilation previously due to Hun Ye's Soul Sacrifice technique, these spiritual entities had now returned to this place as if nothing had happened at all. Truly, fortune plays strange tricks on mortals.
Flower Soul rose to her feet. Poison Eagle asked, "Leader, where are you going?" Noticing Poison Soul's hurried demeanor earlier, Poison Eagle couldn't help but ask.
Reluctantly casting one last lingering look at Leng Che, she retrieved a supreme-grade defensive magical artifact from her spatial storage and handed it to him.
Li Nianxi couldn't help smiling. She wouldn't tell her that she had just secretly applied a mild pain-relieving medication to her.
That evening, after dinner, Shen Wan went to the kitchen and used water to decoct the feigned-illness medicine for Qin Yan. It made a full, large bowl with a deeply unpleasant smell.
Qianshan desperately wanted to immediately implement affairs concerning the vital interests of the state and the people, and she longed to explain to Ziyu why she had to act this way, why she was so urgently hoping to witness a unified scene of popular solidarity. Yet she feared that while the speaker was earnest, the listener would remain indifferent.
Even someone as bold and fearless as Lei Dongba felt his legs grow weak at the sight of Wei Bo, who had been reduced to skin and bones. Cold sweat poured down his forehead; he wanted to move, but his legs simply refused to obey. He was still considered fortunate—the other brothers of the Fierce Tiger Gang had long since been paralyzed on the ground with terror.
Sighing inwardly, Lady Li decided it was best not to hinder Changsun Jin from entering the county school. After all, should this child truly achieve greatness in the future, her own three children might also receive some care from him.
"Silence! Master Song is a venerable and highly respected senior; how could he possibly compete with the likes of us?" Wan Yuan glared fiercely at his junior brother.
Chatting and laughing among themselves in the military camp, the men completely avoided discussing the possibility that the Dali army might fail to hold their ground and suffer defeat.
After making preparations, they boarded the ship and set off together. Urshanabi set the large vessel in motion, and they sped away across the undulating waves. In just three days, they crossed a distance that would have taken other travelers months to traverse.
Yandifeng could hear the sound of the ocean tides and the sound of her breathing, which was so soft and gentle. They looked at each other, and then Yandifeng smiled, and Qianshan smiled as well.
Once the physical bodies of Zhang Ziming and the head of the Chen family were enveloped by the golden true essence, a series of sharp, cracking sounds echoed. Their skin split apart, their tendons and bones turned to ash, their internal organs charred into charcoal, and blood oozed from every pore across their bodies as they plummeted downward, reduced entirely to bloody figures.
Before long, more than a hundred Eighth Route Army soldiers rushed out from all directions, leveling their guns at Zhou Weiguo and the others.
Some vented their frustration through useless curses, while others squeezed forward like madmen, only hindering the progress of the people below. A few of the boldest attempted to climb up using the drainage pipes and cracks in the wall.
Even from a distance of several hundred meters, Ye Fantian still felt as though his entire body had been enveloped by a terrifying creature the moment this golden figure appeared.
"You!" Ji Daoyi's chest heaved violently several times, evidently struggling desperately to suppress his rising fury.
Gazing helplessly at Qinghong, who wore a smiling expression in his embrace, and listening to the footsteps drawing closer, Ziyue had no choice but to abandon the urge to kiss her. Forcefully suppressing the emotions stirred up by her teasing, he used his large hand wrapped around her thighs to give Qinghong's buttocks a heavy, resentful smack.
