Chapter 201: First Entry into Chicken and Goose Alley
This night was destined to be one of many sleepless nights.
Chen Lanfeng, enjoying the privilege of being chauffeured by the attendant room’s driver, returned home, still unable to fully emerge from the whirlwind of excitement, anxiety, and tension that had gripped him throughout the day.
He simply could not sleep—not at all.
The day had been nothing short of surreal.
Early in the morning, Xu En, the director of the Party Affairs Investigation Department—now detested by the military and soon to be feared as the Military Command—had personally come to the door, carrying the chairman’s explicit orders.
In just a few months, this once barren land had transformed into prime spiritual farmland. It was only a matter of a few years before it would become top-tier spiritual terrain.
Suddenly, the once tranquil Yumen trembled violently. A low humming sound arose, shaking the entire city.
But for the scions of noble families, this was no ordinary exam—it was a reclassification of their social hierarchy, redrawing strict lines of rank and privilege.
At that moment, Xiao Chen held Ya Fei close. After a brief moment of dizziness, her beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings in confusion.
The other two young men were Wang San and Li Lei, both second-generation residents of the mountain stronghold, with little connection to the townsfolk below.
There were still plenty of calcium tablets, enough to last a month. Even if the water-leaping fish could be eaten more frequently, they could sustain themselves for ten days.
Shangguan Yun knew she posed no threat. Within the restricted zone, she could glean the specifics of the area from Black Butterfly Demon Luo, ensuring she would not face overwhelming danger.
“Don’t call her that. It was my idea. I was a bit dissatisfied with the minor roles on TV dramas. I don’t want to be a mere ornament by your side—waiting hand and foot, asking you for money whenever I’m short.”
In the following days, Yun Fei found himself enveloped in a realm of tenderness. Not only was Monroe utterly obedient to him, but later Lina also joined in. For a time, Yun Fei enjoyed the pleasures of a husband with many wives, completely forgetting the world around him, lost in blissful intoxication.
If the Allied League were to be compared, the leaders of these four factions would be the four permanent council members—figures of great stature, often holding veto power over many decisions.
Here, Michael committed yet another grave error—he equated everyone’s ability to command on the spot with his own.
Moreover, the Warriors were unique; the three-point line held an even greater tactical significance for them than it did for the Lakers.
He might have had confidence facing human armies, believing his military command skills adequate, but fighting non-human monsters was an entirely different matter—let’s just spare him that.
Jiang Zhilin’s expression stiffened, but inside, he sneered coldly. This shabby, despicable trickster had finally been exposed.
Just as Li Mu’s mind entertained this thought, a strange scent lazily drifted to her nostrils. After a few gentle sniffs, she was stunned to discover it was the unmistakable aura of a ghost.
Xiao Ling searched intently not far from Baihua Villa, hoping to find Xiao Ling. But among the vast sea of people, such a meeting was hardly easy.
Xia Liang suppressed the terror in his heart, urging himself to think clearly to divert his attention. He recalled that the three had been confined together in the same place; panic was only natural. The eyes could see nothing here—only a faint light leaked through the crack opposite the door.
With swift and powerful movements, she thrust her toe into the chest of a nearly two-hundred-pound man, knocking him backward. He lay there gasping for breath for a long while.
