Upon learning that the property failed to go on the market, Fang Xuxu immediately called the relevant authorities to demand a thorough investigation into the geological standards. She declared that if there was any behind-the-scenes manipulation, deliberate price tampering to disrupt the market, or malicious rumormongering, those responsible would be dealt with relentlessly without any leniency.

The developers, having arrived with immense expectations and thorough preparation, were met with the sudden cancellation of Joy Bay’s listing, leaving them...

"Is there really any need to use such an antique?" Luo Fanshuang didn't even know what it was at first, only understanding after looking up the information.

Sensing a living being's strength, perceiving a living being's emotions and thoughts, and detecting the location and number of objects outside one's field of vision—those who train Observation Haki to its absolute pinnacle can even catch a fleeting glimpse of the future.

In truth, Gu Musheng was lying. His legs had merely gone a bit numb from sleeping slumped over the desk all day. But as someone harboring the dream of becoming a model student, Gu Musheng naturally wouldn't admit to that.

The anomalous heavenly phenomena drew the attention of many villagers in Peach Blossom Village. Some wore looks of shock, some awe, some trembled with fear, while others hid in their rooms too terrified to come out. Yet everyone knew for certain that this must have been brought about by me, a Taoist priest.

I feel like Tianfu shouldn't be dead yet. Although you've revoked the effect of "Simplified Origin Return," it will still take a little more time.

Liu Hongjian rubbed his thighs, which were sore from prolonged horse riding, and remained silent. Although he had asked this Mongolian man three times, he still hadn't managed to remember the big fellow's name.

A colonel could be considered the supreme commander of a primary base in the East Blue, acting essentially as a local monarch responsible for the maritime safety of his jurisdiction.

It was precisely because of his status as a captain in Marine Headquarters that Fullbody had the capital to act so arrogant, and very few people were willing to provoke him.

Zhang Xingben licked his lower lip, the corners of his mouth curving upward into an eerie arc, smiling with exaggerated peculiarity.

"If you really like it, we can stay here for a while longer after the birthday celebration concludes," Lin Yulan suggested.

I smiled and patted Xinyue's hand. "It's rare for you to be so thoughtful." The incense burning in the room seemed to have been changed as well. Wisps of fragrance drifted from the translucent glazed censer, fresh and pleasant like the purity of lilies, presumably because Xinyue worried I wouldn't be accustomed to heavy, pungent scents.

Hearing this, the three generals were startled. Mo Yunfan hastily asked, "Weren't the spies of the Fierce Fang Kingdom already completely eradicated? Aside from the cold-natured consort, every single one of them was handled by my own subordinates." Mo Yunfan said this with absolute certainty.
