Volume 1, Chapter 38: That Person Has Excellent Technique
After Zhao Qichen left, Lin Qiuran sat down at the computer, the residual warmth of his palm still lingering on the mouse.
Shang Xia waved her right index finger in the air. "First of all, the monthly living expenses for an ordinary person now are only 200, and that is considered living quite well. Yet, the salary I am giving you is 300 per month."
Therefore, every year when attending the assembly, except for the Tai-shi family with their unique circumstances, all other families send their best elites, aiming to defend their family’s reputation and consolidate their standing.
Watching Qin Jiaxi about to get into the car and drive away, Lin Wenxuan took a deep breath, intending to continue toward the commercial street.
"From this day on, you are my disciple, Luo Lishang. Kneel." I sat in the chair, looking at the child dressed in coarse cloth. She was very thin, barely five years old, but her eyes were exceptionally clear.
After Ni Dan finished speaking, everyone’s eyes turned red, and they unleashed their lethal moves one after another. However, Meng Tian was no pushover; the long sword in his hands was used with such supernatural skill that, in no time, the area before him was littered with the dead and wounded.
Seeing Qiao Mingjue recoil and shake his head as if he had encountered something terrifying, trying to refuse, Yin Xinyan felt an indescribable sense of pain and grievance.
These two words echoed continuously in Qiuran’s mind, and she felt her entire world beginning to collapse with a roar.
After roaring at Steward Li, Old Master Feng put his hands behind his back and stormed out of the hall, his feet moving as if propelled by wheels of wind and fire.
For some reason, I suddenly liked this place very much. It felt good, and Mu Yan was great fun; having gained another friend, it felt wonderful.
But that person had said the poison had no antidote, so how could he still have the energy to poison him?
Mu Yunsu scratched her head. "Let me think." Then she closed her eyes, appearing deep in concentration.
Before long, Xuan Junyi had led everyone to a tall tower. Mu Yunsu looked up; the tower was three stories high, constructed entirely of wood, antique, quiet, and elegant. The tower occupied a vast area; by visual estimation, each floor was at least three hundred square meters. She couldn't help but wonder: what was this place used for?
Seeing that they had all found their places and there were no other issues, Yu Yao went into the house to avoid them coming out later and not finding her, which would only lead to more trouble.
Although the people of this world had backward productivity, they still possessed an aesthetic sense. This female looked very healthy, with a slender but not delicate physique.
Seeing the baskets hanging from their shoulders by ropes, she knew they were surely filled to the brim again, and they must be exhausted after walking such a long distance.
Yasuo stood to the side; as an onlooker, he no longer knew how to describe Ciyun. Was she schizophrenic?
The silver van had been burned beyond recognition. It was impossible to tell with the naked eye whether the charred corpses inside included Jing Yi; only DNA verification could determine their identities.
Facing his former superior, Ye Xiao showed not a hint of nervousness. On the contrary, his tone was calm and collected, showing no signs of being intimidated by Ma Ruhu’s authority.
Upon hearing what Old Bai had to say, Ye Luochen, his brow slightly furrowed, glared at Ye Xiao with unwilling eyes. After a moment of hesitation, his previously relaxed fist suddenly clenched tightly again, his knuckles grinding and making a sound like gnashing teeth.
"Take these children to the hospital." Several police officers acknowledged the order, supported Han Yang and the other two as they walked out of the nightclub, with A-Qiang following close behind.
Lei Tian hurriedly stopped laughing and climbed up from the floor, but the expression on his face—wanting to laugh but not daring to—was truly adorable.
However, compared to him, the others in the grand hall were much more composed. Although Wu Zetian was also anxious, she maintained a calm and indifferent appearance, while the Duke of Yingwu, Li Ji, could be said to be the most composed person in the room.
Therefore, the Champion Marquis had been biting his teeth and pushing his experiments forward under their suppression all this time.
"Thud..." This ninja was truly worthy of being the leader of this unit. Just as his opponent was about to strike, he suddenly stepped back, raised his fist, and collided with the attacker.
David was annoyed. It had been hard enough to put on an act of superiority, only to be slapped in the face. He ordered that all these grains and wealth be delivered to the commoners; if any commoner refused, they were to kick the door in and force it upon them.
I really did it for myself... The reason I couldn't say it aloud was because the term "Missionary" implies someone without any selfish motives.
Bathed in the light once more, I felt both physically and mentally exhausted, and only then did I feel the pangs of extreme hunger.
In fact, ghosts and vengeful spirits are nothing to be afraid of; they are merely energy structures that humanity has yet to discover.
"Junior Brother Ye Feng, I see that you are an upright and magnificent person, certainly not evil, which is why I gathered the courage to tell you! You will keep this a secret for me, won't you?" Bian Dong asked.
Furthermore, beneath the appearance of happiness, there was still an unfillable void in Misa Nohara’s heart.
The third regret is the length of the story; this one is relatively short for the sake of logical completeness.
A uniform sound came from all around me. The twelve Chi You all plunged their weapons into the stone floor, then simultaneously knelt on one knee. Their arrogant, undying, and unyielding heads were finally bowed in reverence and piety.
"Bastard!" Zi Yunyuan cursed in a low voice. Bi Fang playing this trick was intentional, to ensure he didn't hear the full extent of what Bi Fang had to say.
"Haha! If he's blind, then just suck his soul!" the blue-robed monster laughed wildly.
"How did you handle them?" Dugu Hong asked after a moment of contemplation. This was the most critical matter. After all, these dozen or so were his own people. Dugu Hong naturally needed to know how he had dealt with his own.
The Great Fairy was helping Cirno wash her feet. This posture, this action—she truly lived up to the role of the "housewife" Great Fairy.
Mo Jiuqing had not expected that Du Wanjuan would be so bold as to invite Jun Yanchen to a private meeting at a time like this.
Many "whys" swirled in Xia Xue’s mind, but some things are better left muddled. Originally, she and Ye Xuan only had seven years to be together, but now, that goal of "forever" was not far off.
"Look where I've gotten to. Tieshi, bring the items up." At this moment, Tieshi from the inner hall, wearing cotton gloves, brought up a basin of items.
"At present, they are indeed items legally owned by Yuan Yi. However, because there were some issues with my subordinates, we have suffered significant losses. Those ignorant police officers, eager to make a name for themselves, have hidden some of them away," Liu Xiyi said with some reservations.
