Chapter 22: The Small Hair Tie on Shang Hejing's Wrist

Today, Shang Hejing was the protagonist of the press conference, with more than half of the cameras on-site focused squarely on him. Most of the media in attendance were financial and business outlets, though there was no shortage of those with backgrounds in entertainment journalism. Seeing the black hair tie on Shang Hejing’s wrist, everyone’s penchant for gossip was instantly stirred. Meanwhile, in Tongcheng, Xu Tanxi stared at the man’s wrist on her screen without blinking.

Gu Qingchu had not expected Yuan Jinpei to be so entirely devoid of compassion. A young woman was looking at him with such devotion, and considering their past history, it was surprising he felt not a shred of softness.

"Nothing, I just thought the way you frowned was too cute, I couldn't help but tease you!" She finished, covering her nose with her hand as she laughed.

Several different lantern boats appeared on the lake, shaped like crescents and stars, encircling the center and revealing themselves to the crowd. Everyone was captivated by the sight, unable to look away.

Mo Yilin hurriedly winked at Wang Junqi: What is wrong with you? Why did you agree to pay him back? Where will you get the money? I don't have a single cent.

What was the point of keeping it by the bedside? The owner of the pouch would never come looking for it. Lu Linlang sighed. Before dark, she called Qinghong and Lanyi over, and the three of them set out together.

The experts of the demon clan cheered loudly, yet they remained intensely nervous, fearing that some unexpected incident might still occur.

Gu Qingchu’s words were more effective than an imperial decree to Yuan Jinpei. After savoring the kiss and recalling what she had mentioned before leaving, he immediately set out to carry it through.

She stood up, ignoring the soreness in her legs, and hurried toward the conference hall. She reached the door just as it swung open.

In this way, he blocked the assistant of Wang Wei from speaking, preventing Wang Wei from finding out about the matter. If Wang Wei were to learn of it, Lin Feng would surely be stripped of a layer of skin.

However, the act had to be convincing; the hired blade did not let Lin Feng do as he pleased, but put up a struggle.

What caught Li Xiang by surprise was that Guo Yangyang had arrived on a road bike. Although this "Storm Prince" was a domestic motorcycle, its design mimicked a Harley. It was quite expensive, costing over twenty thousand, but more importantly, it was difficult to register because its powerful horsepower made it unsuitable for general city streets.

As for the battle between true immortals, Du Hengzhi and the others naturally could not intervene. The four of them retreated several dozen yards with tacit understanding, then watched the distant confrontation between Lin Feng and the python demon in silence.

"Then I will come to your office this afternoon, President Su, to apologize to you in person." Xiao Botian still clung to a glimmer of hope.

His skills were all of the "Invincible Slash" variety, making him best suited for such heavy, cleaving weapons.

For someone from the modern era, the most critical element in understanding modern warfare was, naturally, air superiority. The air force was absolutely the king of the battlefield.

"Uh..." The goblin was instantly dumbfounded. Would Xiao Yu really use his head to smash it? Was heaven playing with him? He had just said that the wall was hard to open, only for Old Niu to blow it apart with an axe. Now he had said there would definitely be no rock layer here, and yet he had immediately struck stone.

This arrangement by Zhou Yue left He Qingming and all the high-ranking officials of the Green-Clad Legion overjoyed, as it effectively amounted to high-level autonomy.

The equipment of the first fleet, the one Shangguan Yuanxin had previously organized, was the most high-end and advanced.

Hexi Pass, already surrounded on both sides by the Yilong County detachment of the National Protection Army, still maintained an air of tranquility and serenity.

It is said that after they left, they traveled through the night, only slowing their pace once they had cleared Youzhou. From that day on, they greatly admired the ingenuity of my plan.

Hearing Cheng Xian suggest that someone was helping Qiqi, and knowing that Ye Jinglan happened to be there, Bai Moqing could no longer sit still.

Sometimes, one must take a gamble. As for what followed, Jiao Fei could only leave it to fate. More importantly, he felt that if these three legendary figures could not leave the Sword Heart Sea, then no one else had any hope of escape.
