Volume 1, Chapter 28: Exterminating the Zhang Family

The production team had prepared all the ingredients. Two stoves were set up; one for braising lion's head meatballs and the other for simmering fish head and tofu soup. Though simple, these dishes required a refined touch.

"Haha, that is impossible. Wherever I, Randall, am, even the Emperor himself cannot spy on us from within his palace. You may chat with me without any worry," Randall said smugly. It was clear that this fellow named Randall possessed terrifying power.

Shan Liang channeled the primordial energy within him, slowly probing and striking at the Youmen acupoint as he had done before. After continuous attempts over this period, Shan Liang had become intimately familiar with the acupoint, yet he remained cautious about the final step. That was why he had placed the jade chime at the door today, to avoid being disturbed.

During the day at Liang Tianhua's office, a thought had crossed his mind: could that "Ye" be Ye Xiu? He had expressed his doubts to Liang Tianhua at the time, but Liang had dismissed them directly, including the possibility that Qin Hanmin might have helped his disciple, Ye Xiu.

Jiang Feng smiled inwardly. It seemed the epidemic and the task of consolidating the settlement had exhausted Zuo Jing; otherwise, he wouldn't have greeted him with such words. His relationship with Zuo Jing had never been good.

"True, I can sense it." Shan Liang couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking to himself that as expected of a politician, his sensitivity to words was truly acute.

Nearby, Xu Zheng and Huang Bo were already lying in bed, but upon hearing the conversation between Huang Lei and Sun Honglei, they opened their eyes to interject with a few retorts.

Glancing at Dabao, who was close by but not threatening his cooking, Huang Lei decided not to worry about it.

Five minutes later, Long Shisan returned, a look of joy on his face. "The superiors have approved your participation in this anti-terrorism operation. At the same time, the Eagle Team, Swift Wind Team, and Thunder Team are also sending members. This time, it will be quite lively."

"Perhaps before long, the Qilin egg will hatch. If a Qilin emerges, wouldn't that be a huge problem? So, a trip to the East Sea might resolve it," Zhou Lei sighed and said.

Just as the brilliant arrow light collapsed, the Archer God Hou Yi had no time to react. A dazzling white light flashed by, and then he lost consciousness entirely.

The next second, the void prison was instantly sucked into a spatial black hole via a void channel. Then, the black hole vanished into a tiny dot, and the void returned to calm, as if nothing had ever happened.

"What happened to Tang Tang?" Bai Shaozi and Bai Mozi rushed over from the table, their expressions sinking in an instant. On their two remarkably similar faces, the composure and coldness vanished, replaced only by despair and grief.

Everyone watched Huo Lingfeng, their hearts pounding fiercely. Although he was still himself, the pride and arrogance radiating from him at this moment were so flamboyant that the crowd involuntarily gasped, as if struck in the heart by a heavy hammer, and a feeling of being conquered by him welled up from within.

They were dealing with Na Tie, who was not like ordinary Huaxia people. Trying to take advantage of him was nothing more than a pipe dream.

The guardian formation, which had been calm just moments ago, suddenly flashed violently. Tongues of fire erupted from its surface, rolling toward the cultivators of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance who were already in the distance.

There were four ordinary pillars standing in the four directions, with an open space in the middle. A young man in a fiery-red robe stood with his arms crossed, scanning his surroundings with immense arrogance.

To Wang Hu, the Golden-Haired Mouse's smile seemed somewhat lewd. In order to pry things out of Wang Hu's hands, this golden-haired rodent abandoned all pretenses of refinement and began calling himself "Brother Mouse."

"It's not dangerous. The Immortal Realm is different from the cultivation world. Crossing tribulations in the Immortal Realm is far less dangerous than in the cultivation world. Not only did I pass my tribulation, but Zhuang Li'er, Bing Lan, and Bing Xin also succeeded," Huang Xiao said, shaking his head.

The two maids, Lianxin and Lanye, were also very happy. Since entering the manor, the Yang family had never served the Eighth Lord, so they had never expected to accompany him to Chengde this time.

As a leader, he had only coincidentally witnessed the influence of Dark Diga, and that was only a fleeting glimpse.

A handsome man in a bamboo-green crane cloak stepped out of the carriage first, followed by two young women wrapped in fur coats.

Of course, Ye Qingli never imagined that while taking the Holy Pool Blood Lotus, Murong Ningfeng had also taken the Nether Fruit, and had taken the opportunity to teach the so-called Emperor a lesson.

It wasn't until they had walked quite far that Hong Chen suddenly let out a sigh of relief, his face showing a trace of annoyance. Why had he been so afraid just now?

Lin Feng could not endure his chanting of the tightening spell, so he ordered 50 high-end gaming consoles from the Cosmic Mall to serve as the first batch of dedicated equipment for the Lin Feng Film Production Company.

A killer organization that had flourished for a century was wiped out, disappearing from the Star-Moon Continent forever.

"If you pretend to be sick again, I will tell the whole world that you are faking it," Shen Run warned, staring at her with a dark face.

Shen Run glared at her with a cold expression. After a moment, he stood up, said nothing, and left in a huff.

The suction force was enough to grind everything it pulled in—people or objects—into dust. The giant clam could not hold on the moment it was caught in the vortex, and by sheer coincidence, it bumped into Long Siye and Hua Yan, who had also been dragged in.

"Since in your eyes my sincerity is worth less than a dog's, then I simply won't offer it. Damn it, I just want you."

"One must enjoy life to the fullest while one is successful..." She looked back at the first half of her life; it seemed there wasn't a single day she had lived for herself.

Especially with the newly adopted orphans; finding a master to teach them martial arts was a problem. She simply didn't have the time to go and teach those children herself.

Claiming she had sent the wrong item, she cleared her throat and handed the pouch containing the Purple Fire Pill to Lin Lanting.

Song Yuan laughed from ear to ear, thinking to himself that his arrangement this time was excellent, and he would have to keep up the good work next time.

Shen Que suddenly broke off a piece of Wuyue's bone and shoved the tracking card into the gap with force, leaving deep tooth marks to cover his tracks.

On Chu Yu's side, protected by several elders of the Chu State, Chu Jin hurriedly treated his arm and rejoined the battle, fighting side-by-side with Chu Yu. For a time, the Heavenly Sacrifice Army, Earthly Sacrifice Army, and lizard-men surrounding them could not get close, and Qing Xian finally felt at ease.

The growth of the Seven-Colored Qilin, beyond normal natural maturation, could be accelerated by consuming rare treasures.

Huo Tingzhou thought that since the person had been sent to the countryside, he would just have to wait until his injuries healed before going to the educated youth office to ask about his placement.
