Volume 1, Chapter 29: How did you calculate that?

Qing Dai straightened up, only to see Qin Shu’s gaze skim past her and fly straight toward Hua Shaoyan. That plaintive, sorrowful look was truly enough to inspire pity in anyone who saw it. She turned to look at Hua Shaoyan, only to find him watching her, his deep eyes rippling with entrancing tenderness. Her heart suddenly gave two hard thumps.

Perhaps the motion of her turning away had angered him; perhaps he could no longer restrain himself. The young man adorned with a jeweled crown and jade pendant strode rapidly toward them.

Of course, that old man was certainly one of the masterminds behind everything. After all, he had been able to find us in time.

In the face of such overwhelmingly powerful magical attacks, only a very few rogues used their single opportunity to dodge, and then they were instantly killed by the second wave of lightning that followed close behind.

She concealed the truth and merely said that she had brought back two hundred taels of silver. She had deliberately left something unsaid, precisely because of the lessons she had learned from Madam Wang and Jia Er. The Ghost Hero was right: even if you had no intention of harming others, you must still guard against them.

With a sweep of its enormous tail, the colossal creature abruptly turned its head. Its blood-red pupils fixed themselves menacingly upon the group of “humans” attacking most fiercely from behind.

There had always been no shortage of sordid affairs in the great households. Since Marquis Zhongyi had married a princess, he had always had only one wife and had never even kept a secondary companion. Either the princess had dealt with them, or they had been dismissed before the wedding. As a result, there was far less strife within his household than in other families.

Yet at that moment, he was also deeply displeased with Qin Weijun, because Qin Weijun’s actions were tantamount to forcing his hand.

Thus, she spent an hour cycling between anger, delight, and smug satisfaction before suddenly coming to her senses. So much time had passed. Rong Lie ought to be leaving court soon. Why had there still been no movement?

The berserk lightning storm instantly obscured the sight of several elementalists... Lin Zhongtian had spotted long ago the Blood Thorn that had crept up beside them.

To be honest, he had a rather good impression of Ximen Lingqiao. He had never expected her to have a grudge against the Unknown Fire Clan.

In the villa’s main hall, many prominent figures from Jinling City abruptly changed their attitudes and stepped forward to bow respectfully to Lin Tian.

When Yang Jianqing finally recovered his senses, he discovered that a clear spiritual imprint had already appeared within his sea of consciousness.

As the cry of alarm rang out, a white figure rushed from the hollow of the tree toward the direction in which Wang Yuetian had fallen.

After this period of unremitting effort, and driven by her desire to catch up with Di Wuyou, she had been sustained by the various rare treasures of the Mu family and the pills she had refined herself.

Most of the onlookers could no longer make out the situation on the chessboard. Zhang Qi was no exception, but by observing the expressions of the two players, he could deduce the position they were currently in.

As soon as Wang Yuetian finished speaking, Ma Jingwu, who had been acting rather arrogant only moments before, immediately lost his momentum.

Tap, tap, tap. Just as Uchiha Feng was stroking his chin, absorbed in a major discovery, a slow, measured set of footsteps approached.

Back at the Martial Spirit Garden, he had witnessed every detail of the easy laughter and lively conversation between Lin Tian and Su Yuan.

On the other end, listening to the busy signal, Daming froze all over, terror appearing on his face. He hurriedly took out his own phone and made a call.

“This is all thanks to Mr. Wei’s generous assistance. May I ask whether there is anything my estate can do for you, Mr. Wei?” Old Master Murong asked.

When Doro first heard the news, anger surged within him. So this was how you managed the drow, Dinar? Doro believed that Dinar should have raised the issue from the outset. Bringing it up only now proved that he had not taken it seriously enough.

Finding a way to survive was not so easy. These people either died in the wilderness or were captured and executed by the pursuers. The knowledge they had been taught did not include wilderness survival. In fact, even if it had, the prewar wilderness survival manuals contained no information on dealing with those mutated creatures.

After a wave of shouting, the sound of hooves grew denser and more rapid. It was obvious that the cavalry had begun its charge, and the direction of their attack was straight toward Doro.

“Assistant Zhang asking me for help is an honor. If you ever need anything in the future, just say the word. So long as it does not violate any principles, I would gladly climb a mountain of blades or plunge into a cauldron of boiling oil for you.” Chen Zhaojun laughed and thumped his chest as he gave his assurance.

Wu Hui switched on his flashlight and saw that the frost-covered ground was splattered with blue liquid. He was both astonished and discouraged. He was astonished to discover such a completely new species in the heart of Hoh Xil, but discouraged because the alien-like monster was utterly unafraid of bullets. It simply ignored the damage they caused.

“Then I won’t use my hands. I’ll use my mouth, all right?” Wei Feng smiled. Sure enough, he bent down and buried his face between those snow-white peaks.

Wei Feng was stunned; he had not expected Nina to say such a thing. He looked at himself and could only give a bitter laugh. “I can’t move at all right now. Even the one thing I could do to repay you has been ruined by my inability to move. Tell me, how else can I repay you?”

She smiled and nodded. This time, she had come with the group as its primary attacking force, yet she had shown no awareness that she was supposed to be the captain. She had left everything to Le Sha, while Le Sha himself had not voiced the slightest complaint.

After two days of intensive interviews came a full week of hectic work, during which they continued organizing the patented technologies that could be traded to Essilor.

Cui Xiuying knew she had no grounds to criticize him, so she very sensibly kept quiet and did not mention the matter again. One could not argue with the boss over such things; if she persisted, she would be the one reprimanded.

As the crowd continued to grow, many people who had managed to obtain tickets joined in the excitement. Left with no choice, the payment platform actually issued a statement in the middle of the night.

In this scheme, Imperial Concubine Zhao was Lian Zheng’s finest blade. Placing the empress under house arrest showed that he had been driven into a fury; otherwise, he would have taken into consideration that Lian Qiao was still in the southeast.

As those resentful spirits vanished, the oppressive gloom that had enveloped heaven and earth also disappeared in an instant. Though it was deep into the night, everything suddenly felt far clearer and brighter.

Su Miaoyi let out a long breath of relief, then closed her eyes and offered thanks to the god to whom she had prayed throughout the journey.

In all likelihood, within three days, the overwhelming majority of them would be wailing and yearning to return to the noisy mortal world.

Li Heng laughed. He could sense numerous auras drawing near, including several presences powerful enough to threaten him. Those killing intents were locking onto him, and they seemed to belong to the forbidden weapons of the Multiverse Alliance.

When they reached the mountaintop, the old man descended and formed a series of hand seals. A golden gate then appeared overhead, with countless immortal swords suspended before it.

The second part of the experiment was to take the polypeptide they had just prepared, analyze and verify its purity, and then write an analysis report. If it was not pure enough, they would have to determine the cause.

Based on what she knew of her husband, if he was behaving this way, he probably no longer harbored any opposition in his heart.

Through his inquiries, Raymond learned that Mins Hilton was the nephew of Baron Orman Hilton, the lord of Black Ring City.
