Chapter 72: Two Unlucky Hands, Farewell to the Red Blossom

The new blind boxes will take quite some time to arrive, so Qiao Jia decided not to concern herself with the matter for now. She had other affairs to attend to.

Qiao Jia planned to make another trip to Giant Tree City’s Giant Tree University, to restock the blind box vending machine there and perhaps add some new items. Previously, when the system had gone there, it had been thoroughly beaten by the monsters, and had been urging Qiao Jia to help restore its dignity. If the monster turned out to be easy to defeat, she could take care of it on the side.

“Should we prepare a private chamber especially for President Zheng, hire some security guards, and then have a conversation?” Si Zhe sneered sarcastically.

Unbeknownst to others, it wasn’t that she couldn’t handle these matters; she simply refused to waste her time on trivialities. She always believed that as long as she managed the overall direction, even if her subordinates weren’t entirely loyal, they couldn’t create much trouble.

The master’s morning temper was truly terrifying. Ever since moving into Lingquan Palace, Thirteen always kept his distance while Ah Jiu was asleep, fearing she might vent her anger on him upon waking.

He dealt with her patiently, never rushing or losing his temper, and built good relationships with those around her, especially the editors in her office. In fact, he was more familiar with them than she was.

Hearing my words, Zhou Yazhe smiled bitterly. Indeed, this was something he couldn’t achieve, no matter how hard he tried.

“You’ll know when you get there!” Zhu Sha tossed him in the living room and went inside to change clothes. As she changed, she couldn’t help but feel delighted and expectant, imagining Li Hai’s reaction when he met Jiang Donghui and saw the menu.

Once one reached the peak of the Immortal Lord, they could begin to condense Fate Marks. The more Fate Marks condensed, the stronger the Immortal Lord’s combat power became, approaching the strength of a third-tier Celestial Emperor.

He loosened his grip on me slightly, but his arms still bracketed my body, enclosing me in the center. His brows drew together and his eyes fixed intently on me.

Chen Zhengqiang still found Liu Tingting hard to tolerate, but seeing that Li Hongbo drove a Volkswagen, he became a bit more agreeable toward her.

Looking at the address in a famous old district of Coastal City, I pondered. If I found time during this trip, I could visit the owner at that address and see what secrets lay hidden behind it.

She dared not try again, thinking the madman would come to her rescue after teaching her his skills. She let go of all worries, felt no anxiety, gazed at the stars for a while, and then fell asleep.

Watching Mi Duo play with Yu Han’s arm, Ji Yan’s expression grew darker. He forced a smile, “Haha, long time no see.” She wanted to say something more to Yu Han, but saw Yu Han smile indulgently at Mi Duo, then silently turn and leave.

Liang Yunsheng recalled Chu Tianxiong’s fight before the holiday and, fearing to upset him, quickly smoothed things over: “Come, come, we’re all fellow sufferers in matters of the heart. Drink, drink!” He glared at everyone and clinked glasses with each one.

Only now did they realize they were not on the same level as Lin Tian. Even if they reached the Fusion stage and stood on the same ground as Lin Tian, they would still not be his match. Lin Tian’s move was simply too formidable.

In the end, Lu Qingyu won first place in all three events and became the champion of the challenge tournament, with Lan family’s Pei Yuan and Luo family’s Kong Wu coming in second and third.

The Earth Escape technique allowed one to vanish wherever there was earth, but just now, when he tried to escape within this range, he was bounced back by a strange force.

Staring at Leng Litian, Liu Yanyun suddenly felt a surge of fear—yet her fascination with him only deepened.

“Medium height, rather thin, often wears a black jacket.” As he spoke, he pulled out two photographs: one showed him in a car, with the license plate clearly visible; the other captured him walking.
