Volume 1, Chapter 47: Despicable People Get What They Deserve from Pei Ji

With a few soothing words and a piece of silver in hand, the waiter thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Song Ying and Song Ci, who were behind them, finally caught up at this point.

Hearing that she was heading to the third floor, Song Ci felt a surge of unease in her heart.

She suddenly remembered the lie she told that day, using Pei Ji as a shield to escape punishment. Never did she expect her luck to be so terrible today that she would actually run into him.

Judging by Song Rouxi's demeanor, she clearly had suspicions and intended to go up and get to the bottom of it.

Song Ci furrowed her brows tightly, feeling anxious and uneasy.

After a moment of thought, she hurriedly followed, prepared to improvise on the spot. Song Ying followed closely behind, but after taking a few steps, she was blocked by the waiter.

She was stunned, watching helplessly as Song Ci walked toward the upper floor...

As You Xiaotian sinisterly uttered the two words "what a pity," he infused his right palm—which had just delivered a strike—with even more innate genuine Qi. At the same time, with greater force and astonishing speed, he executed a backhand-style flying chop aimed straight at Li Qingsheng's neck.

"Aside from elevating one's strength, the Spirit Pool also purifies and enhances the physique," Instructor Liu Ling continued.

Long Xingyun clicked his tongue in wonder. Though he had no idea what the Immortal Linghuang was up to, it was best to leave sooner rather than later. Besides, there was nothing worth discussing between him and Immortal Linghuang in the first place.

"Given this situation, what else can be done?" Anier stepped down from the bed and wrapped her arms around Jiang Feng's waist.

"Phew, who would have thought this brute could still summon companions? Truly terrifying!" Seeing the dense swarm of Tiger-Eyed Black Scorpions appearing all around, Ji Cheng could not help but feel a jolt of shock. He had never imagined that this single Tiger-Eyed Black Scorpions could call upon its own kind.

After slaying the demon, Wang Bugui turned his attention to the surrounding tribulation lightning. The sheer potency of the current heavenly tribulation made even him feel wary; mere lightning alone was enough to inflict injury on him, to say nothing of the other lightning beasts.

"Reporting to Master, my brother is not worrying about his own safety, but rather feels rather demoralized that on our very first expedition out of the mountains, his abilities were seen through and his divine powers broken," Gao Jue replied.

Lu Fan also widened his eyes. He watched as the young man's pupils on the chassis suddenly turned an enchanting, vibrant crimson, and two fangs protruded from his upper lip. "Vampires," the officer stared at the young man's fangs and said coldly.

Lin Kongxue quietly watched these people laughing and frolicking. It felt to him as though they hadn't laughed and played like this in a very long time. Whether it was the arrogant bravado of Xun Hu earlier or the shared laughter of everyone present now, the atmosphere among them always remained so harmonious and warm.

"Proof? Of course I have it! The two personal guards arranged by General Duan can testify for this official!" With that, the military supervisor surnamed Wu looked around, attempting to find the two guards assigned by Duan Wei.

This secret technique originating from the unorthodox sects actually lacked any great difficulty; it was merely unique in its conception.

"I am Nachimu, the mountain god of the Qilian Mountains, and the protector of all living beings within them," Nachimu finally spoke these words with a dull, expressionless look.

Arrows rained down like a dense, sky-obscuring storm falling from the top of the city tower. Though the momentum was impressive, it failed to inflict heavy casualties on the Celestial Dynasty's soldiers; instead, the arrows simply struck the raised shields, producing a dense and rapid clattering sound.

"The next three weeks will be relaxing and comfortable!" If one listened solely to that deliberately pitched and disguised voice, one would truly believe that Chu Yanyan was completely relaxed and in high spirits at the moment.

"Hmph, so what? You certainly won't live to see that day. Rest assured, I will kill you before then. Up with you all, kill him!" Yang Lianting said viciously.

For safety's sake, Zhang Chao took only a single wagon of treasure with him, while the remaining four hundred and ninety-nine wagons were hidden away first. His current strength was still insufficient to go toe-to-toe with Dong Zhuo. It was better to conceal the wealth first and retrieve it gradually in the future.

Su Yanyuan murmured to herself, unhooking her apron from the wall hook. She then sat down at the dining table, picked up her rice bowl, and began helping herself to the dishes.

The first army could not be overly aggressive, because an aggressive army always invites constant wariness from others.

Conversely, the white python in Wang Ling's grasp kicked and bit continuously, trying every conceivable method to escape the clutches of Wang Ling's demonic grip. Unfortunately, the white python's attack power was simply too low; it could thrash for a lifetime and still fail to scratch Wang Ling.

Yin Luo hurriedly swung his sword, causing the sacred artifact longsword to burst with unimaginable brilliance as he met the attack head-on.

It could be said that Wu Sanjian had witnessed more dark and sordid things in his lifetime than ninety-nine percent of people ever would.

Looking closely at the three of them, their faces were flushed red. Wang Ling stroked Zoe before him; her body felt like it was burning, and her temperature was frighteningly high.

Much like the cluster of will-o'-the-wisps that Liang previously absorbed and assimilated, these ghost fires, apart from looking slightly frightening, posed very little threat to him.

Now, this physical fitness assessment was about to be rolled out across all special operations companies in the entire regiment. Guo Yongchao, who had just won a sliver of favor among the officers with his modest attitude, was once again cursed and reviled from head to toe by hundreds of soldiers in the blink of an eye.

Shizi lay on the ground searching, while Tong Muhe chuckled stupidly, admiring Peng Congming's artwork. The two of them were busy with their own tasks; Shizi was thrilled to find three spirit stones, and then resumed his carpet search, finally picking up a stone shard after a long while.

Shizi also told Niu Dahan to wake him up early tomorrow morning so they could head to the Beast Pet Courtyard together. Niu Dahan nodded hurriedly in agreement, and then they each returned to their respective rooms to cultivate.

"It seems another wealthy patron has graced us," Lin Kun thought clearly to himself. The operating expenses of the teahouse and the various funds required for Uncle Zhong's activities were basically self-sufficient, often shearing a fleece from every passing goose. Drinking tea and consuming things here was ridiculously expensive, but fortunately, these wealthy patrons didn't care at all; the more extravagant it was, the more endless the stream of visitors.

Not long after, Jiang Kangde, who was fashionably late, appeared accompanied by an old man. Having finally waited for the vice-director to show up, Yue Yang hurried forward to greet him.

Over the next few minutes, Ji Shaoyi seemed to have locked horns with that hyaluronic acid duck, frantically inserting coins and dropping the claw. With his merciless iron claw, he spun and bounced the hyaluronic acid duck without stopping, yet he simply couldn't catch it.

Your Great Shang Dynasty possesses impregnable iron walls, is irresistible, and wields boundless might. Perhaps she was just playing a joke on you, she thought, and burst into laughter alongside the female pheasant spirit.

Hearing Zhang Lanfang say this today, a single apartment cost upwards of a million, causing her heart to instantly become unbalanced.

"This morning? Didn't I tell you to come with me? I originally planned to tell you on the way." Bai Muhai smiled very sincerely and even lightly flicked Feng Xuan's nose.

Just as Shi Qi stood there in a daze, Lang Qiao had already found a jeep along the road and blared the horn aggressively as she passed by Shi Qi.

"Are we just going to watch like this!" Lin Qingwan angrily tried to shake him off, but failed to break free even after shaking twice.

Qin Hu and Qin An shrank their necks against the wind, running out from the military camp and treading through the thick snow as they sprinted forward.

Old Madame Su still had a belly full of fire with nowhere to vent when Madame Lin threw herself right into it, angering Old Madame Su so much that she brushed Nanny Wang aside with a wave of her hand.
