Chapter 23

Lin Qingyu demanded one hundred million from Xiao Feng Can Yue because Xiao Feng Can Yue had started with an offer of fifty million, signaling that his minimum budget was fifty million. Lin Qingyu had worked as a procurement officer for a time, so she understood such tactics.

As he finished speaking, the serious expression on Tu Jian Daping’s face suddenly took on a playful hint of a smile.

Amia agreed and ordered someone to summon Wugu. Although Wugu had lost his city, he had been living quite comfortably for a while. Especially as Amia’s strength continued to grow, he had gained the attention of various powerful figures, which left him feeling quite satisfied.

"I didn't expect the Huaxia Kingdom to have such powerful young people, but the four of us, all at the second-tier, second-star level, will completely crush you two," a male ninja in a black robe said, his voice deep and his face appearing grim.

Even though he was now a mysterious and unfathomable cultivator, Lu Guang still did not believe that true immortality existed in this world.

Although this was the third time she had said this, her satisfied and contented expression convinced everyone that she spoke from the heart.

Ning Xin frowned and pondered for a moment before nodding, "Fine!" The middle region of the Wuji Wilderness was almost entirely the territory of Fire-Dragon Beasts. Having a Fire-Dragon Beast that had survived the Tribulation as a guide would at least spare them from having to engage in further major conflicts with other such beasts.

At the same time, Professor Su not only felt that his wife was in danger, but he also sensed that his own situation was precarious. Sooner or later, he would likely be killed once he lost his usefulness.

The second point was somewhat contradictory. If Kuang Youtian did not suffer from depression, he naturally had no reason to commit suicide. However, since there were no signs of homicide at the scene, how was the case of his death determined?

Just as Lu Guang was sighing, two sneaky figures suddenly appeared at the corner tower of the inner courtyard below, moving one after the other toward the courtyard under the gallery.

She missed not only the him she had once loved so deeply but also the version of herself who had loved him with such devotion during those youthful, spring-like years.

"Not yet," replied the second Heavenly Soldier walking in line. Looking at his face, while it bore a slight resemblance to Zong Yang’s smile, his features were otherwise entirely ordinary.

That night, Xiao Baizhu met with 738 again, a meeting once again arranged by Xue Long. 738 and Xue Long fell into a dispute over the question of Xiao Baizhu’s identity.

Children are the easiest to satisfy, yet they are also the most sensitive. While Yun Liu was not a child, his intelligence was on par with one.

He wondered to himself: What should he do next? What could he do for her? How could he make her completely forget the impact of the terrible things he had done to her?

Regardless of Zhang Ran’s reaction, he hoisted her onto his back, channeled his wind-element demon power throughout his body, and leaped straight down from the mountain peak.

The kiss lasted a long time, longer than any Han Chengpu had ever given Gu En’en. Afterward, she felt herself falling into a warm embrace, sinking completely into darkness.

Having tasted the immense benefits of the conflict between two types of demon power, Li Chen naturally would not let such a natural source of power go to waste; doing things without a profit was simply not his style.

One day, while Ye Liuhen was dining with San’er, a guard rushed in, looking as if some grave event had occurred.

Then, the other party hung up the phone with lightning speed, as if Chen Xia were a virus and talking one second longer would result in their death by poisoning.

The moment the Qingxuan Divine Sword in his hand clashed with the Green Dragon Blade, Zhou Qing sensed an aura that even his sword seemed to fear; that aura emanated directly from the blade in Chen Xi’s hand.

"Brother, Mother said that once you pass the imperial examination and become a top scholar, we shall be married," Ke’er’s muffled, shy voice emerged.

The reappearance of the Spirit-Rhino Bird made Fang Qin extremely excited and happy; she immediately summoned her own Spirit-Rhino Bird.

Ding Li frowned. To the north lay several minority regimes such as the Xianbei and Wuhuan. He was unable to handle them for the time being, which was why he did not want to intervene immediately. However, if the Xianbei were intent on moving south, the chaotic You Province would have no way to stop them.

Li Xin received Liu Chong’s imperial decree, ordering her to lead her troops back to Luoyang to take up the post of Counselor of the Five Armies Governor’s Office, where she would be responsible for daily operations and also marry Zhang Nai.

Lin Zhuo wandered around the battlefield, observing everything with great seriousness. Everywhere there were dead men or dead horses, blood pooled on the ground, and severed limbs lay scattered. A thick, bloody stench spread, making the very air feel eerie.

Lin Zhuo stood high above, his posture upright, unmasked and unhidden, radiating a domineering aura. He was wrapped in confidence, his presence shining brilliantly. Deng Zilong was already accustomed to this, while Isono Michimasa’s eyes glowed; Lin Zhuo’s display of strength made him feel even more certain that he had placed his bet on the right person.

However, Ma Dong was surrounded only by working-class people, and those with money and power could not be bothered to deal with him, so he ended up rebuffed at every turn.

Therefore, although Wang Yanke’s proposal was hard for everyone to accept, it was understandable. Consciousness energy was a precious thing, the most valuable resource left behind by the ancestors of Earth’s humanity. If that energy were cut off, the future development of mankind would be in jeopardy.

The group flew over the heads of the zombie army, braving the attacks of flying zombie beasts, but once they entered the city, everyone’s expression turned grim.

His face turned cold in an instant, and a chill spread from his fingertips through his entire body, as if his blood had been frozen solid.
