Volume 1, Chapter 55: We'll See About That

Flustered, Jiang Li pushed him away. The blush on her cheeks, paired with her damp hair, gave her a delicate and tender beauty.

Quan Xiangyu raised an eyebrow; it was a rare sight indeed to see Jiang Li shy.

He had always thought that Jiang Li simply regarded him as a younger brother three years her junior—she would even say she was going to take a bath and just go without the slightest bit of self-consciousness. So, as it turned out, she was capable of shyness after all.

"You are heartbroken, so naturally I won't hold this against you. You are the God of War, the one and only Yan Difeng—do you really think a few tears will make everything just vanish?" Clear reproach filled Qiansang's eyes.

Li Wei had given Caizhi three days to deal with that massive pile of items, but in truth, Caizhi didn't even need three full days to sort them out. Afterward, she went back to report to Li Wei.

Such a flawless yet overwhelmingly majestic Long Qingyuan always gave her the urge to look up to him in reverence, or even to drop to her knees in worship.

She wanted to swim upward because she knew how to swim and wasn't going to drown, but the water was too bitterly cold. Her limbs had grown stiff and numb from the freezing temperature, rendering her completely powerless. She could only let her body sink, sinking and sinking further down, as if descending all the way into the netherworld.

Prior to this, Yuan Yi had changed the license plates on the car, evaded the surveillance cameras, and parked it in an inconspicuous parking lot in Tinella. When Lord Cat emerged from the vehicle, it didn't recognize a single thing around it. The people spoke in gibberish that it couldn't understand, and when it tried to communicate with stray cats, the local felines even added a "Sawasdee" to their meows.

"Lass, do you remember this place?" General Su and Su Jinxi stopped near a rockery in a certain part of the garden, and then the general asked softly.

"Your Majesty, news has arrived from outside the palace that the Yingwu Army has arrived and has already stabilized the situation." Dongguo Yu reported to Lin Xing.

Finished speaking, Benjamin pulled the dagger from his right hand, made a slash across the palm of his left hand, and then wrapped his blood-dripping left hand tightly around the flagpole of the assembly banner.

After listening to Qi Weiwei's words, Xueji found herself unable to refuse. After all, the reason she had come here to play today was precisely because she had advanced from the eighty percent threshold to the ninth stage of Post-Heaven realm. Since that was the case, she could not afford to take the lead in breaking the rules and acting like a spoiled brat; otherwise, this game would lose all its meaning.

She felt utterly bewildered, but Fairy Siyu's warning still rang clearly in her ears. Since he couldn't figure it out on his own, he had no choice but to ask Zuiyan Xuanfeng to help track down his child.

Instead of answering Shang Yu, Madam Shang merely stared blankly at her son, her eyes shimmering with tears. The look of lingering fear and deep worry on her face made Shang Yu involuntarily snap his mouth shut.

Judging by Dapeng's appearance and performance just now, she did believe that he was untainted by romantic entanglements and quite handsome. However, she found it somewhat hard to believe that he possessed formidable strength.

"This! Nephew, please have a seat for a moment. The old man has an urgent call of nature and needs to step outside!" Li Song wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly bolted out of the living room.

How severe the penalty of death was, yet for the vast majority of ordinary miners who hadn't even managed to cultivate any internal energy, it was nothing more than a simple respawn.

Amidst their conversation, Solomon took a stride forward, his figure gradually disappearing into that crimson dimensional gate. Witnessing this, the six grand masters exchanged glances before stepping into the crimson portal one after another.

"Whoosh!" This piece of whale skin, large enough to cover half a plaza, was casually tossed by Liu Ye, dropping straight into a large pool of water he had previously ordered to be prepared, where he had people clean it.

Anyway, we miners have cheap lives to begin with. Even if we fail to snatch a ruby, at least we will have tried our best. How would we know without giving it a try? The success rate of doing this is much higher than blindly digging away on our own.

Langdon's spirits instantly deflated. "I was just asking casually, no need, no need!" With that, he hurriedly hung up the phone. It seemed there was no hope of finding any clues from OTE, but where on earth was he supposed to look for leads now?
