Volume 1, Chapter 29: Plundering the Zhang Estate

Zhang Yi pushed open the secret chamber door. Inside, he saw an old man in purple robes reclining diagonally on a bed, his eyes tightly closed and his expression serene. Beside him stood a Four-Ram Square Vessel, from which wisps of curling smoke rose and drifted into the old man’s nostrils.

At this point, she had no way to make an instantaneous breakthrough in spiritual power. The only thing she could do was create the third form of the Intent Sword.

“I told you, didn’t I? I haven’t broken any rules.” Tayuya Origami looked at Yatogami Toka with an air of smug satisfaction.

But in Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes, all of this was nothing more than a passing cloud in the sky. Having personally witnessed adorable lolitas and sweet little boys eventually turn into faces fit for slaughter, how could she possibly still believe in fairy tales?

The two of them had no classes on Tuesday afternoon. After eating breakfast early that morning, Assistant Zhang came to the central park. The two then got into the car and headed toward University B.

The front courtyard was bustling with wedding festivities. Although the stewards were puzzled in their hearts, none of them would show it on their faces. Meng Bao went around toasting them one by one, while the stewards and their wives offered enthusiastic congratulations. Since Madam had sanctioned the marriage, they spared no effort in praising this hastily assembled couple to the heavens and earth.

What kind of class could a two-year-old child possibly attend? Not to mention that no place would dare accept her—even if one did, Lin’s Second Uncle would have no time to teach her painting himself. Thus, after saying this, he felt not the slightest pressure.

After all, Yan Qing had personally gone into the kitchen to prepare Xia’er’s favorite pastries. As her senior disciple, what could he possibly find fault with?

So it was the sect academy’s long-awaited identification plaque. Changning took the token and toyed with it in her hand. It was heavy and faintly cool to the touch, clearly made from no ordinary wood.

It was only because of what had just happened that Ruofan had subconsciously called out to her. Left with no other choice, he could only find some random topic to bring up.

Leaving behind a lighthearted remark, the big sister from that corrupt kingdom casually tossed away the deflated rubber ball and strode off.

Before Hong Shengcheng could even rise, Ruofan had already slipped to the office door. He waved his hand as though he would not take even a single cloud with him. The moment he left the entrance of CUBE Entertainment, he called Hao Jiyou and truthfully told him everything. After hearing it, the other man wished he could fly to Korea at once.

At present, Nampi City contained only the five thousand infantry and cavalry commanded by the Northern Frontier generals Wu Xiong and Guo Hua. Cao Cao believed that the conditions were now ripe for dividing his forces, striking Nampi from the east, and breaking into the rear of the Northern Frontier army.

After capturing Murong Feng, he was afraid to see the marshal’s contemptuous eyes and had never once gone to face him. As it happened, a civil war broke out in the Zhexibu tribe at that time, so he took the opportunity to lead his troops away from Hudu. How the king and Lian wished to deal with the matter was up to them.

Those so-called “quality” idols, however, had never once guided their fans. They cared only about basking in the feeling of being adored by everyone. Sometimes, when annoyed, they would even lash out at their fans, beating them, cursing them, or sleeping with them. No wonder such people ended up being called “brain-dead fans.”

This was the most extraordinary Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. The appearance of a Dead Apostle at such a time left Shinji no choice but to exercise caution—especially since this Holy Grail War had seemed extremely strange from the very beginning.

Halfway there, the girls suddenly vanished without a trace, as though they had never appeared at all. No one knew where they had gone or what they were doing.

Meng this time was not deliberately acting cute for Sun Yumeng. She had only done it because she had run out of things to say. Even she was slightly surprised by such an unexpected delight.

The energy of the Gourmet Cells had dispersed completely into every cell in his body, with not the slightest trace of overflow remaining. Unless he consumed a large amount of food again, there was no way for those powers to emerge from his body.

Yet the strength they displayed made the others yearn to possess such power themselves.

Lin Wuchen’s brows drew together at once. The name struck him as extraordinarily familiar, but he could not remember where he had heard it before. He then shook his head.

Meng Hongyuan had always been straightforward by nature, and Meng Yujie’s household registration had been transferred over before she married into the family. So even if she was dissatisfied now, there was nothing she could say.

The world of constructs summoned by Qingxue was directly suppressed, and all the superpowered individuals vanished in an instant.

Ma Mingxiang lightly bit the end of his cigarette, inhaled deeply, and exhaled a ring of smoke. He seemed to greatly enjoy the sensation of the smoke stimulating his lungs.

After saying this, Tao Yanqi turned and left. Watching her retreating figure, Song Qinglian tightly gripped the business card in her hand. In her eyes flickered something called ambition.

Four streaks of light halted in the sky, revealing the forms of the Four Sacred Beasts. The sword-light that had intercepted them gradually dispersed as well. Holding the Zero-Type Armament, Eternal Dream of the Great Serpent, Yumei floated before the Four Sacred Beasts, swept her gaze around, and said nothing.

The Yin-Yang Grand Mill flew from the Yin-Yang Adept’s hand and instantly transformed into a stone mill a hundred meters across, black above and white below, carrying an aura capable of grinding everything into oblivion. One black and one white half flew toward Wu Di from either side.

Finding marijuana was no easy task. Sometimes Old Ham had to walk for an entire day before he could find a few plants. Naturally, the food he got in exchange was pitifully scarce, and most of it was eaten by Lei Zhan anyway.

She felt that he was deeply trustworthy—like her master, yet even more trustworthy than her master—because time and life-and-death trials had long since proven his loyalty to her.

After Liang Mei left, three people had departed within a single day, and the barrier became even more desolate.

As they chatted in the car, the two grew increasingly close. In the end, they simply began calling each other “big brother” and “little sister,” as though they truly were siblings.

“So, what else do you know about the HR organization? I’m not in a hurry. You can take your time and tell me everything.” Since Black Demon knew about the HR organization, it would be better to obtain information from him. As long as HR remained, it would always be a thorn in Lei Zhan’s side.

“Where did you get this spirit slave? It’s absolutely disgusting!” “Chaos” Tian pointed at the Corpse-Rending Overlord and gave a bitter laugh. The Corpse-Rending Overlord looked imposing in its current form, but its entire soul was covered in rotting wounds, with maggots constantly crawling out of them. It truly was revolting to behold.
