Volume 1, Chapter 31: Hit Them Where It Hurts

Shen Lan smiled and said, "No problem, leave it to me." As a member of the Divine Dragon lineage, Shen Lan was a noble among beasts; her instincts regarding other exotic creatures were unlikely to be wrong.

"I heard from Sophia that you know Chinese kung fu?" Although Henry looked to be at least twenty-four or twenty-five, he still spoke like a child who had yet to grow up.

"What did you say? They won't have any memory of this event?" Ji Tiancheng was startled once more, asking with uncertainty.

Zhao Tian was naturally terrified. He knew his grandfather's temper all too well. Although others were nearby, fully armed, Zhao Tian had no chance to dodge before his grandfather rushed out and pressed a gun to his head.

Mr. Zhu watched as the three black planes vanished into the western sky. Thinking that the cobbler was likely dragging his wife and children into a hole at the base of the city wall, a malicious thought suddenly occurred to him: it would be best if the bombs fell right on the heads of Chinese people like that cobbler!

Before long, Ai Shuang spotted her target and began moving rightward along the palace wall. I hid in the woods, following her steps, all the while wondering what she was up to.

Once you take a wrong step, there is no turning back, for deep underground, no matter who or what you are, leaving the designated space means instant death.

"A foreigner indeed, but to have the surname Elizabeth, combined with that noble and elegant temperament—could she actually be a member of the British royal family?" Jiang Hua pondered silently to himself. Furthermore, why had Mavis's eyes suddenly turned sea-blue? It puzzled him; could she be wearing colored contact lenses or something similar?

The major factions had just been established; they would absolutely avoid friction at this time unless absolutely necessary, as it would severely hinder their development.

Yet, at this moment, I had already secretly made up my mind: no matter what, I had to go find her.

Fortunately, not long after, Yuan Shu's envoy arrived in Qingzhou to hold secret talks with Liu Bei. The two sides came to an understanding, and Liu Bei once again secured a powerful ally.

On the Tianyu streaming platform, the news that a luxury "Master-tier" five-man tank squad had run into a low-cost "Bronze-tier" five-man toy squad had already spread across the League of Legends channel. Many fans of other streamers flocked to Lin Lin's channel to watch this "grossly mismatched" Blood Moon Kill PK.

Mija opened his eyes wide, stunned, as he pushed aside his tent flap. To the south, as far as his eyes could see, rolling clouds of dust and smoke were sweeping toward them.

"No, this kind of thing, it can't happen, it just can't!" Hong Tian shook his head, yet he found himself completely powerless to stop it.

At this moment, many people rose abruptly, their gazes piercing through the infinite void to fixate on a certain place.

Inside the car, Qiao Wei groggily opened her eyes, only to find Su Cheng’s gaze burning as it studied her body.

She whispered softly, tears falling. In the vast world, it seemed as if only Su Ni and those nineteen people remained, locked in a mutual stare.

Seeing that Kong Jing and Reddy still wore questioning expressions, Liu Xuan gave a rough account of what had happened in the towns near Lin City over the past few days.

"Hm?" The Master felt it was strange. How could these regulations be immutable? Rules were rigid, but people were flexible.

This in itself would be fine, but for a mine slave to seek certification as a Grandmaster was somewhat eerie.

Fortunately, the Zhou Dynasty began promoting paper currency starting with officials and merchants who had commercial ties with the imperial military. The former, being within the court system, dared not voice opposition for fear of losing their positions. The latter, because their businesses were tightly linked to the government, dared not refuse the currency despite their dissatisfaction.

Fortunately, no harm had come to the fetus yet; things had not reached a point of no return. He needed to take Zhihan back immediately, seek her forgiveness, and from that day forward, no matter what happened, he would never doubt her again—never.

Upon hearing the words "feel free to pick," so-and-so felt his legs go weak, nearly unable to stand.

Most of the time, they were content simply to have escaped harm. Taking Ah Feng’s situation, for example: by all reasonable logic, since Jiang Ming was merely a subject and Ah Feng had no power or influence, they should have been satisfied just to escape today.

Yi Yuefeng lowered his gaze and saw in her clear eyes that she was not disgusted by him, but rather, filled with joy.

Guo Feiyu thought for a moment; that was true. Taking Xi'er back to the villa to find a better physician might just wake her up. Guo Feiyu cradled Bai Luoxi, bypassed the crowd, and walked out.

Mu Ximei deliberately emphasized the words "in the palace," bringing a glow of joy to Yu Wei’s face. She understood the hidden meaning: her mother had told her over the past few days, and the Empress Dowager had hinted as well, that as the Thirteenth Prince's consort, she must be magnanimous. As long as she did not cause scenes or act out of jealousy, the position of the Thirteenth Consort could never be taken from her.

So-and-so felt his smiling mask shatter; his unappreciated smile froze on his face, twitching as if he had a cramp. Sighing, he closed his eyes. Unable to sleep under the bright lights, he simply turned to something he hadn't done in a long time—cultivation.

"Make Pei Junhao release Zhihan! He’s a man about to be married—what right does he have to hide her away?" Liu Ruotong asked indignantly.

Leng Wuxuan looked happily at his two older brothers, foolishly grinning without knowing why. The three brothers met often, and every time they did, the Fourth Brother would get angry at the Fifth Brother. He wondered if it was because he was jealous that the Fifth Brother was closer to him?

However, if Guo Tianfei were ever given the capital to surpass Liu Feng, he would surely treat Liu Feng with the same disdain he showed others, no longer holding him in any regard. The previous harmony would vanish instantly. A person like that is the type to turn his back on anyone.
