Volume 1, Chapter 46: If You Want Me to Let You Go, You'd Better Smile at Me

The woman immediately reached out and pinched Wen Zhi's arm, her fingertips sliding back and forth across the skin. A flash of contempt crossed her eyes as she said disdainfully, "What a delicate, tempting little flower indeed! No wonder so many men can't stop thinking about her! Dressed like this today, which man are you trying to seduce?!"

Just as her voice fell, a hand suddenly reached out, grabbed the woman's wrist, and jerked her backward with a reverse twist.

Slap!

By waiving the five percent commission, Zhou Tian naturally knew this was Long Yun's gesture of goodwill, hoping for future business dealings. Since he would indeed need to auction pills in the future, his brief hesitation was merely for show.

"Seven Kills, go up and hold him off! Damn it, of all the people to choose, why did they have to lock that dead fatty inside? What kind of blind nonsense is this?" Ouyang Jue glared at Optimus Prime, then shouted to the rest of the group.

"Venusaur?" Shinji looked at A-yan as he tossed out Venusaur, but Shinji did not swap his Pokémon because of this, choosing instead to continue the battle with his Shiny Golduck.

As for the creator goddess of this world, there was only himself and her. Tianying would never allow her to become his sword spirit; yet if the other party ever found out, she would surely sneakily become his Dragon Soul sword spirit.

"Lan, am I someone who reasons with people?" Lan Rongyue seeing Yun Hao lingering in silence, looked at Yan Canglan with tearful eyes and pleaded for help.

"I have also found a flying-type demonic beast with both wind and lightning attributes. From now on, you are free." Without wasting any breath, Zhou Tian spoke directly.

Looking at the lake, Lan Rongyue slowly walked onto its surface. Following her footsteps, the water froze into ice beneath her, and the faint moonlight reflecting off the ice surface appeared exceptionally dazzling.

Aerodactyl immediately spun its body, its tail encircled by water, and struck straight down at Moltres. Before Moltres could recover from the pain of Thunder Fang, it was struck once again by Aerodactyl's Aqua Tail.

"You may leave." Being stared at with such eager eyes by Song Kui, Zhou Tian felt inexplicably bewildered. A moment later, he waved his hand to dismiss him.

The Southeast Continent was a world of oceans, where the seabed was the territory of demonic beasts, and most islands were inhabited by humans. Due to the harsh environment and fierce competition, bloodshed and slaughter were constant here.

Taking advantage of the weekend break, a family of four had happily gone out for an outing, but who could have known that on this very day, the disaster would erupt.

In theory, students who could rank in the top two hundred of their grade level had basically already placed one foot across the threshold of university. Moreover, barring any abnormal underperformance, students whose total score fell below 400 in this exam would basically need to push themselves much harder, otherwise they wouldn't even qualify for a vocational college.

"Then just pretend I'm drunk. I feel like I've never been as sober as I am right now." Hongzhou pressed his lips into a smile and lowered his head to kiss her neck.

As for Zhou Mengqi, Zhou Mingli was as good as his word: he neither deliberately made things difficult for her nor gave her any special treatment.

These powerful spiritual beasts had no intention of attacking anyone, and didn't even care in the slightest about the appearance of an outsider like Xia Haoran.

Zhao Zixhen vomited furiously in the restroom. Combined with the dizzying motion of the washroom, the effects of the alcohol were slowly dissipating. The moment he stepped back into the private dining room, the scene inside scared the wits out of him—not because of Su Zhi's anger, but because she was currently looking toward the door with an anxious expression. Seeing Zhao Zixhen walk in, she hurried right over.

After Su Yi finished preparing the pastries and fruits the emperor would need for the evening, she walked back to her quarters. Having been promoted to a culinary maid, she made many delicious pastries and teas every day, receiving plenty of rewards. Her rest time also became increasingly abundant, unlike the endless, day-and-night toil of the past.

"Do you remember the peach blossom pastries? That night I went to deliver peach blossom pastries to you, Su Yi was bathing, but you sneaked out..." Hongzhou said, his expression softening as if he were sinking into a fond memory.
