Chapter 55: How Did the Villain Turn Into a Simp Too? 18

Zhong Shi took a moment to adjust, barely managing to make out the scene before him in the moonlight filtering through the window.

At this moment, he was sitting on the floor.

Before him hung a slender, fair calf, dangling over the edge of the bed. It swayed slightly twice, then lifted upward and vanished from sight.

What he had just been hugging must have been Hua Yue's leg.

Zhong Shi rubbed his throbbing temples.

He tried hard to recall what had happened, but a splitting headache tore through him, and he could remember nothing at all.

He stood up.

From his perspective, Xiao Chen had been merely a hair's breadth away from a breakthrough earlier, and thus used spirit jade as an aid to finally break through. Because he had used spirit jade himself, he knew its effect was extremely weak and practically negligible.

Indeed, had she been in Song Mudan's place, the offer would have undoubtedly shrunk further, and being able to come up with two-thirds would already be considered decent. From this perspective, Song Mudan was truly sincere about handling this matter, and thinking of this, Lin Donghao hesitated no longer.

Against a top-tier warrior, who was essentially a match for a thousand men—such as top-tier peaks like Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, or Xu Chu—even a thousand men could not encircle them. Calling them a match for ten thousand was an exaggeration, but three ordinary thousand-man platoons still could not stop them.

"Mm..." Xiao Chen nodded, feeling a wave of relief wash over him. The second ingredient for body-tempering medicine was now within reach, bringing him one step closer to an increase in strength.

"Master, that son of a bitch Oster's car is less than three kilometers away from the estate." Cutting the communication, Tai Hu rushed to report to Pei Donglai immediately, purposely calling Oster a son of a bitch to banish the fear in his heart.

Naturally, the tiers of the "God-Building Pagoda" also rose steadily, the barriers between levels breaking with the slightest, effortless poke.

Although the others did not speak, their glowing expressions betrayed their inner thoughts; clearly, they were also deeply concerned about this matter.

She knew that Pei Donglai's rush back to Luther Island was not out of eagerness to wipe out the U.S. Delta Force with Xiao Kuang and the others, but rather out of concern for Chen Ying's safety.

They knew it wasn't that the iceberg Zifeng wasn't terrifying, but rather that Zifeng had reined in her aura. If it were truly to erupt, it would surely make one's heart quake with fear! She was definitely not someone any of them could compare to.

Another week and a half later, the grotto-heaven system finally expanded completely to 100%. As long as Chen Xiang was willing and could afford the spiritual energy, he could even transport the entire courtyard across space. Of course, the amount of spiritual energy required for that would be astonishingly huge—something a penniless Chen Xiang had no way of affording at present.

At this moment, once the TR-735 and the U-2 landing craft completed their docking, Robin led Zoro, Sajo, and the others through the connection tunnel into the aerospace department. At the airlock of the connection tunnel, representatives from both the Federal military and the Morgan family had long been waiting.

"July... do you know the Twin-Card sisters?" Heng Yi had been meaning to ask about this ever since July returned.

These three could be said to have plotted and schemed to discipline or even kill Xiao Qiushui, yet they could also be considered Xiao Qiushui's benefactors.

"Coo coo coo!" These Deinonychus turned their heads to look at Li Zhi, then at the men in black ahead, and finally, most of them charged toward the men in black.

Returning to the bedroom, Wang Ming shared an intimate moment with Leng Yue. He no longer cared if anyone might be eavesdropping; the feeling of joy could only be expressed this way.

As the Hall Master of Disciplinary Hall, although Wu Tong's cultivation was still at the Golden Core stage, he already belonged to the core echelon of the Five Elements Sect. His understanding of the significance of this matter was far more profound than that of people like Wei Wuji.

A chill ran down Gao Guo's back. Had Wang Ming not mentioned it, he wouldn't have noticed, but looking back now, everyone who had participated in this matter came to a bad end, and naturally, the next one in line was him.

"They've caught up. Chief of Staff Alvis's fleet is currently about fifteen light-minutes away from our position, with plenty of time to join the battle." Hearing Robin's inquiry, the radar operator immediately stood at attention and replied.
