Chapter 24

However, Ye Xiu did not pass up the opportunity to learn from a top-tier expert like the long-browed monk, often asking him questions regarding the martial path.

Wang Mang, feeling a blast of icy frost against his face, was struck with terror. He could clearly sense that if the sharp spear tip were to advance just another inch, it would pierce his heart.

The phantom of Su Zi flickered into view, appearing much clearer than before; it was evident that his condition had improved significantly.

Qin Zhao pinched her cheek, then took her hand and continued walking forward, intending to take her to a high-end restaurant nearby for a meal.

Seeing that Ye Xiu was attempting to flee, the old man surnamed Zheng roared like a madman, charging frantically toward him.

"However, now is not the time. Let us hide first, and once we find a safe place, I will take action," Jiang Yi added.

The two walked out of the house in a hurry. Zhang Tian had assumed Shi Yong was taking him to eat in the city outside the school, but Shi Yong headed straight for the school cafeteria.

"I really will shatter you," Jiang Huairen continued to threaten. This was his most effective threat, yet now it had no effect.

Ye Xiu looked somewhat embarrassed. When Fang Tingting had asked for his number at noon, she had called him, but he had forgotten at the time. He wanted to tell a white lie, but unfortunately, he was not very good at such things.

His arm was no longer holding her tightly, and as soon as he let go, Mu Ke fell heavily to the ground, landing in a miserable state.

However, what he found most difficult to come to terms with was that the mole planted beside Fu Tianpeng had also been exposed through Zhao Xueqing’s schemes.

They were still destined to be shattered in an instant. The great battle began. No one remained idle; even Lu Yuan, while observing, engaged in combat with several members of the Celestial Clan.

Dr. Hayata, who had been laughing and chatting with his assistant, saw a flash of sharpness in his eyes and instantly became serious.

"By the way, Shangguan, do you know why the hunting competition must be held here?" Jiang Youning asked curiously. She had heard that the mystical beasts in the Blackwater Mountains were particularly ferocious, and the competition resulted in many casualties every year.

"Why?" Once they had left the battlefield, the Winged God asked, his gaze somewhat sharp.

"You are the Human Resources and Administrative Director; how are these questions unknown to you? Why ask me? If I knew, would I still need to hire a great expert like you?" Zhang Xiaoyin retorted.

Having walked some distance away, Saliel suddenly stopped. He felt as if he had forgotten something. After frowning and thinking carefully, he realized he had forgotten to pay the bill at the restaurant.

Zhang Kexin was right. During the first year of their marriage, their savings were spent on her father’s hospitalization, and now her mother suffered from a chronic illness that required medication every month.

Although he spoke cold and heartless words, everyone knew that Gong Yuande was not truly that cruel.

Deep down, he asked himself: although he wanted to pull Wang Dong into his camp to join him in resisting the mastermind behind Tang San, emotionally, he was unwilling to have too much contact with him.

"The Black Hidden Clan—we must find a way to deal with them. Otherwise, having to constantly guard against the ambushes of these assassins is truly bothersome," the Tyrant Firmament muttered for a moment before looking up and speaking.

"It only weakened the power of that wind wall. Not only was Chen Hao not blown away, but his speed was not affected in the slightest?" The Black Cloud God was also full of astonishment.

Yes, he was a man in love. He could hardly believe it himself, that he had spent the whole morning smiling foolishly and working absent-mindedly. He hadn't even had time to look at the thick pile of documents Kim had brought over. He felt a bit irritable and at a loss.

Chen Chen watched Gu Qiqi. At first, he thought that accompanying her to the bar to drown her sorrows would make her feel a little better, as the process was painful, but he hadn't expected Gu Qiqi to lose control while drinking. She kept downing glass after glass, and Chen Chen grew increasingly anxious.

As soon as Liu Duoduo stepped into the entrance of the Linghua Building, various rumors swirled around her—though, naturally, they were not about her, but about Xiao Luofan.

"Both are being strengthened at the same time. Is the first to be strengthened the stepping stone? Does that mean the probability is calculated together when both are strengthened simultaneously?" Lin Wangchuan realized with some clarity.

This meant that from now until he reached level three, he would have to rely on grinding dungeons. But thinking about the insanity of the Lorien dungeon, he felt it was necessary to form a team.

The two weapons collided. Zhou Da retreated half a step, while the old man of the eighth-tier innate stage retreated two and a half steps. Zhou Da held the upper hand.

"Damn, we finally brought down the Ba'a Group," the Scarlet Monastery said excitedly.

Huo Sibei was truly far-sighted. Two days ago, during the camp's rest day, Guo Ziqi caused trouble that affected Yilan, and he had been notified of the situation immediately.

"No need for formalities. I was just passing by to take a look; you all go back to what you were doing," Fukuda Kazuo said with a wave of his hand.

The Swan looked at the young nurse, not answering her question but asking one in return, while struggling to prop herself up to a sitting position.

"Judging by the direction they are heading, they seem to be going toward the territory of the Power Mercenary Group," the man said.
