Chapter 33

"Very well, once this is done, let's escape together~" Xiaolin still clung to a glimmer of fantasy.

"Endless Domain of Fire!" A few words drifted from Cang Yuan's lips, and suddenly, azure flames appeared in mid-air. In an instant, the entire web of light vanished completely.

As for the Jade Qilin, he was not just the senior disciple of the inner sect, nor merely an Awakened one on the verge of transcending his realm. He held another identity: he was the most low-key master of the flute in the State of Chu.

After exchanging greetings and pleasantries, Wang Peng sat down across from Jiang Fengqiang, suppressing his anxiety as he waited for Jiang Fengqiang to announce his next assignment.

That would be perfect. He hadn't heard a word in so long that he thought it was a lost cause! What he feared most now was An Yi asking him for manpower, so he hadn't dared to strike up much conversation with her since they got in the car—not that he was acting aloof.

"The wedding was prepared in a bit of a rush, so we didn't invite you, but let's have a drink tonight. Let me introduce you; this is my wife, Qian Ruoruo." Jing Moxuan waved to Qian Ruoruo beside him.

Jing Moxuan leaned his face toward Han Shui'er's cheek, his warm breath brushing against her delicate skin. A faint blush appeared on Han Shui'er's face.

"Which company did this assessment, anyway? It's completely irresponsible. Doing things this way not only ignores the relocation policy but also sets a bad precedent for future relocation work," Wang Peng said angrily.

Before the zombie could tear the clothes off its head, the other three zombies had already pounced. With mouths split open to their ears, they swarmed over, tearing the hooded zombie apart bite by bite in an instant.

But he knew all too well that surrounding him, even right in front of him, were countless malicious eyes and dark gun barrels waiting for him.

Feng Jin coughed twice, suppressing the surging blood in his body, and reached out to pull out a stone. Inside the stone was an icy blue fragment shaped like a flower petal.

Thus, this fellow designed a propulsion system for himself—like the flight gear of an Iron Man suit—and even installed cloaking technology on the device.

Those fierce maneuvers, intricate spells, and speed pushed to the limit destroyed the entire office building in the blink of an eye, reaching deep into the earth and causing the ground to tremble, with the plane itself vaguely cracking open.

Before anyone could react, he transformed into an invisible streak of light, escaping into the night and into the starry sky.

Even if they eventually wanted to expend every effort to excise that hidden danger, they wouldn't abandon the Time Administration, would they?

Xu Ning's expression was somewhat frantic, her eyes filled with an unprecedented determination, as if she would pursue the matter until the end unless she received a definitive answer from the Chang family.

The soft tiger-skin couch was made of real tiger fur; each of the four great families of the Nine Heavens had their own private animal trainers and private hunting grounds.

Duan Zisheng sent people everywhere to gather intelligence and monitor real-time developments. It wasn't until late at night that news arrived: Chu Tiankuo had been captured alive in the palace.

But then he realized he was just a cat, without even a normal life to speak of; what else was there to dwell on?

The ministers breathed a sigh of relief. Although they hadn't seen the Dark King often, they were deeply afraid of his power. They had expected this attitude, so they didn't pay it much mind.

Zidane nodded. In fact, he was not opposed to bringing in Zhang Zhetian. The 19-year-old Chinese goalkeeping genius had impressed him during the two legs of the Champions League quarterfinals. More importantly, his free-kick technique seemed even stronger than that of Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale.

"Li Peirou, cease your sophistry! What is the meaning of this move of yours? Could it be that you intend to rebel?" From the direction of the phoenix throne, the Empress's voice rang out, filled with shock and fury, as if some great catastrophe had occurred.

At the beginning of this century, German football began a bold reform of breaking before building. They were not only willing to invest heavily in youth training facilities but also prioritized the coaching staff as the foundation for nurturing talent, thereby leading the world in the discovery and cultivation of players.

Forcibly detaining a living soul is a grave sin that disrupts the cycle of reincarnation and violates moral order. If this continues for long, certain offices will inevitably hear of it and come looking for trouble. Once he is preoccupied with his own survival, he won't be able to disturb Lady Liang any longer.

Seeing this scene, the reporters below flashed with excitement in their eyes. Camera flashes went off incessantly.

Before she could finish her sentence, Concubine An tilted her head slightly and snapped in dissatisfaction: "What? The Emperor went to the Imperial Garden to clear his mind? Why was I not informed?" In her haste, she forgot the flower petals still plastered to her face, and with her abrupt movement, several petals fell off.

Isabelle watched Chen Hu assemble the bed frame and suddenly remembered something, so she immediately returned to the SUV, looking as if she were going to retrieve something.

Ji Siyue's lips curled slightly, and she sneered in her heart: If I weren't here, how would I have the chance to get close to you?

Li Zicheng patted the boy's head and said, "Good! You go back for now; I will call for you when the time comes." The two bid farewell and parted ways.

"You have come to aid in a time of crisis and traveled a thousand miles to help; my heart is deeply comforted. Let us sit and talk." Only after the three waited for the Chongzhen Emperor to settle onto his throne did they sit down respectfully. Yuan Chonghuan nodded at Man Gui, and Man Gui nodded back a few times. With the monarch present, it was not the time to pour out their pent-up grievances from their time apart.

Was this a disguised rejection? Jin Guangyan was not like Mu Feng, who could joke around and continue to shamelessly play the rogue. The humble and fragile appearance he had shown before Yan Xiaoxia was a result of him losing control after falling in love. He was naturally a cold and restrained person; being able to reach this point was already no easy feat.

As for ordinary people, they love to give up. They quit as soon as they encounter a little difficulty, and they always want to sow and reap in the same season, being far too impatient.

"You're crazy! By the way, I helped you, so you better not go back on your word about the exclusive rights to the Huo family. And... just don't come looking for me again!" Zhuang Qingqing stood by the car and said.
