Chapter 57

Bruce had also grown much steadier, no longer pursuing those grandiose and ostentatious displays as before.

Most importantly, Bruce no longer had any intention of continuing the fight. Those few moves just now were clearly a concession on his part to let her vent her inner anger. Seeing that Bruce refused to fight back, Luo Hao gracefully stepped down from the awkward position. However, her pride would never allow her to admit defeat, so she decided to end the match in a draw.

The moment the door opened, upon spotting the zombies, the long-range ability users immediately unleashed their powers. After a flurry of indiscriminate attacks, not a single zombie remained in sight outside.

She was well aware of just how furious her father, Shui Dongliu, must be at this moment. This realization filled her with an indescribable sense of grievance and unspeakable heartache, making her truly appear pitiful.

According to Hailis, a wide variety of cultivation techniques existed there, and the emergence of Spirit-grade techniques was not entirely out of the question. Legend even spoke of Saint-grade techniques making an appearance, which was precisely why so many powerful experts flocked there eagerly.

Quite a few people heard Zhaodi's cry, and those who had scattered quickly rushed over. Fortunately, once the pile of bamboo collapsed and flattened out, lacking the downward momentum to drive it further from the top, it simply came to a halt. Xue Chuzhuang had merely been struck a few times, some heavy and some light, by four or five bamboo stalks.

Although the Lorar brothers were eager to make friends, they were not foolish enough to be overly clingy or pestering upon a first meeting. Therefore, after exchanging contact information, the two parties went their separate ways.

This movement instantly drew the attention of everyone around them. The three Silver-tier masters, together with the powerful experts led by the Gold-tier warrior, all surged toward Shen Lie.

Shen Lie harbored a deep sense of guilt toward Xu Ruobing. After all, he had left without uttering a single word of farewell, and had only returned a full year later. If they had been a couple prior to the apocalypse, it was likely that by the time he came back, she would have long since married and had children—who would possibly wait for him?

During the wait, I checked the relevant news reports as well, but none of them contained any substantive or detailed information.

The moment he opened his eyes once more, he suddenly felt as though everything he had pursued in the past was nothing more than fleeting smoke.

Yun Yudie naturally caught the glance from Li Ruoxian. While listening to the Crown Prince exchange pleasantries with the Li family, a faint, dark glint flashed across the depths of her eyes.

"There is still time, think it over carefully!" Walking up to Bai Wutong, Gu Guanguan paused and patted him on the shoulder. She knew that changing one's mindset could not be achieved overnight, and since Linger was not returning just yet, he happened to have time to consider it.

"Understood, Doctor. I will make sure she rests peacefully." Hearing the doctor's words, Gu Guanguan's eyes filled with deep tenderness. She truly had not expected Linger's injuries to be so severe.

"Did Father give you something? You're a married woman now, how could you still have the nerve to take things from the Wan family?" Wan Caiying, who had followed close behind, reached out her hand, signaling for Wan Ying to hand over the items.

It was truly blurred—not just his voice, but even his eyes, and the solid, reassuring feel of his body, all suddenly grew hazy to her.

He simply did not want to be too hasty or too impulsive. She was like a lost, frightened child; he had to exercise patience so that she could gradually lower her guard.

Thinking of Chen Dade's mother in the nursing home—with her head full of white hair and needing assistance with every aspect of daily life, yet this unconscionable son still came to her for money every single day—how was she supposed to survive?

A jolt of alarm went through his heart. Just as he wanted to look closer to be certain, those dark pupils were instantly veiled in a thin layer of mist. With tears welling in his eyes, Liu Chenyang tremblingly cowered behind Wan Ying.

"You vain creature, I was just checking to see how many more bizarre gadgets you haven't taken out yet," Ziying said with disdain.

As the two of them stepped out the front gate, ready to board the carriage, a sedan chair came swaying over in this direction.

"That settles it then. I can participate in your team's entry test." Ziying looked at Xiao Ling with a smile and said.

Inside the Left Bank Tavern, Li Zhen, Jiuzhi, Zhang Li, and others were drinking by the second-floor window. Through the window, the giant Buddha statue standing to the south of Tianjin Bridge was clearly visible.

Upon hearing this voice, Yuan Ji froze in astonishment. Isn't this Zhang Fei? We've been searching for them for ages without finding a trace—where on earth has he been hiding?

However, after getting her hands on the report, Doctor Ace's originally gloomy expression grew even darker, and even Erya's usually expressionless face took on a hint of astonishment, causing An Xiaoxiao's heart to hang suspended even higher.

Le Jin harbored no suspicions and led his troops, preparing to enter the city. At that moment, an ambush had already been set within Xianzhou City, waiting precisely for Le Jin to enter so they could rain arrows down from the city walls, catching a turtle in a jar.

Hilaire's Demon Ring: Epic grade. Contracts with a demon, simultaneously granting the aptitudes of a Demon Warlock, Destruction Warlock, and Affliction Warlock.

Zhou Yu was not surprised by Cao Cao's arrival. Long before Cao Cao headed toward the location where the road was blocked by boulders, Zhou Yu had already received word. However, Zhou Yu was unconcerned; well before Cao Cao's arrival, he had prepared massive piles of stones and rolling logs, with only boiling oil being somewhat scarce.

In less time than it took to eat a meal, more than two thousand militia from Shangyong were slaughtered for the most part, with the remainder taken captive. A few dozen militia who realized the situation was turning sour and tried to slip away secretly were hunted down by the roving extermination squads.

It was just that Zhao Chen was not Cao Cao; he did not have a penchant for other men's wives, and naturally would not fall for such a trick.

Aside from Rongwei Steel's negligible scale, the company itself also lacked a rebar rolling line, and therefore could not speak of any rebar production capacity. Calculated under the current circumstances, equal capital contributions would simply be far too unfair.
