Chapter 56: Upgrading the Town Gate Walls, Unlocking New Tenant Profiles
"Who are you?" Qiao Jia looked curiously at the monster that had suddenly appeared before her, puzzled.
"Greetings, Mayor Jia Jia. I was introduced by Skull Lily. My name is Ghost Carla." The ghost outside the window bowed politely to Qiao Jia and then explained her purpose. "I heard you have a magical blind box here. No matter what you desire, there’s a chance it will appear."
"...Though that's not entirely accurate, but..."
He Zhi Xun promptly walked to the center of the stage and performed a street dance of slightly higher difficulty. When he finished, he cast a provocative glance at Jiang Meteor and Kwon Ji Yong.
Twenty days later, the temporary stock market turmoil came to an end. Jiang Meteor’s results were revealed: he had acquired shares worth 56 billion won in the Amore Pacific Group. This achievement left Jiang Lan Zhen thoroughly satisfied, and Jiang Meteor himself was pleased, feeling a tremendous sense of accomplishment.
After those words were spoken, everyone fell into a thoughtful silence. Considering the situation at that time, it seemed fraught with danger, but from another perspective, perhaps things had been too rushed—at least some issues hadn’t been taken into account.
Dong Xin gladly accepted the keys and took the driver’s seat. Chen Da Ming sat in the passenger seat, Wu Di settled in the back. The car started slowly, and after some casual conversation, they arrived at the Western restaurant Dong Xin had mentioned.
"Master Hong, let’s not beat around the bush. Here are my company’s documents, and I’ve already asked the lawyer to draft the contract. As soon as you sign, everything will be yours," Luo Da Li said.
The three found a restaurant and sat down. Feng Zhe ordered food and wine, spoke candidly about needing Qing Ming’s help, and then brought up Yang Ling.
Meng Zhu glanced around and then at the three of them, suddenly feeling that if they didn’t change into swimsuits, their outfits might give them away.
Adjusting her glasses, Sahoeko Kashima spoke in an astonishingly calm tone.
If you just stayed inside the venue, you might not know whether it was day or night.
Having lived for a thousand years, Ye Hao naturally saw Xie Yaohua’s suppression of his aura as a provocation. Gathering his strength, he struck out with the Nine Lotus Sword, the massive sword light tearing through the air like the opening of heaven and earth, slashing down at Xie Yaohua’s face with lightning speed.
The man felt the force at his throat gradually loosen, then heard a calm, indifferent voice.
It didn’t matter. Li Jiu Dong made a phone call and summoned an expert in interrogation—Qing Qing. The interrogation was so intense that even Li Jiu Dong and Wang Rui Qing couldn’t bear to watch and waited outside.
"Xiao Xiao, though I want to help you, I clearly don’t know the whole story. This time, you’ll have to rely on yourself." Mo Nian’s gaze was tranquil, as if he truly didn’t care whether he could get out.
"Still, I suggest you keep your distance from Mo Nian. As a system with chameleon abilities, I don’t think he’s a good person," 0521 said coolly.
In these three days, Ding Sheng had already failed countless times. With each failure, he ruined more medicinal herbs.
After finishing, he looked at the champagne in his hand, made a face as though facing death, and drank it painfully, one sip at a time.
"A piece of trash at the first stage of the Profound Realm dares to look down on me? Just wait—I’ll show you what regret truly means!" the opposing warrior thought coldly.
This is a fine thing, of course I won’t refuse. With nothing else to do, I continued chatting with him.
He also planned that if such an opportunity didn’t arise in the next few days, he’d find a way to create one himself.
Athena went to find Apollo and Arius mainly to discuss how the three Titan gods would support and cooperate with each other in the coming war on this plane.
The two started their attack—one clenched his fist, the other raised his leg, both charging at Blue River. Blue River moved nimbly, attacking left and defending right, powerful energy swirling and flying, shadows flickering throughout the arena.
Jiang Evil was plotting the same thing. Though he’d only gathered ten thousand spirit stones so far, once he recovered from his injuries he could kill Jiang Tian Hai. Then, the treasures and spirit stones of Jiang Tian Hai and the Jiang family would all be his.
The speaker held a Clear Breeze Sword, wore a purple robe, his brows furrowed in anger, his presence overwhelming—he was Yu Qing, a disciple of the Flying Fish Sword Sect, one of the three great sects of Falling Moon Kingdom. Proud and arrogant, he was deeply dissatisfied with Tu Ming's disregard.
"You don't even have the qualifications here, because you simply aren't trustworthy," Chen Xiao sneered again.
Locke had little desire to control power. He liked to delegate, especially to capable people.
The Temple of the Demon God housed not only saints but many other ranks of warriors, with more than a hundred at the Soul Emperor level.
Sure enough, as soon as the token was tossed, the swirling green light shot out after it.
"Fine, fine! You two old fools, just you wait..." Tu Ming was beside himself with frustration. He hadn’t even comforted his wife and child, and these two old men were causing trouble. He wished he could deal with them right now.
Yet as the door to the hospital room closed, no one noticed the burning tears streaming from Zhang Qi Long’s pale eyes.
Boom, boom, boom, boom—the sounds rang out. The eight massive demon chains all struck where Wei Mu Yuan was seated, raising clouds of dust from the impact.
"Get out!" Phoenix Xuan shouted, scaring Long Wu into shrinking his neck and slinking back.
Xie Gong's immortal root was infused into his body, and he had a chance to ascend the immortal path. No one desired enlightenment more than him. Unfortunately, every time he cultivated his soul power, half of it would mysteriously vanish within a day. For years, he’d been wasting his efforts, never managing to improve.
The wind rose again, and before Jiang Han could react, he felt his pant leg move.
