Chapter 54: Another Encounter

At five o'clock in the afternoon, after an hour of pleasant conversation, both parties successfully signed the contract.
"Wishing us a pleasant cooperation." Dean Han extended his hand once more.
Wen Yang shook his hand composedly and smiled, saying, "Thank you for your approval, Dean Han."
Chen Ting sneered repeatedly. The Heavenly Heart Dao Realm was his domain, and he was its sole master. Even a Dao Fruit-tier powerhouse would find it impossible to escape, let alone care about Chu Jianfeng's dying retaliation.
Zhao Yong was still waiting for Kang Junyi to return to Shenshi so he could continue enjoying a life of ease under him; naturally, he didn't mind helping Kang Junyi eliminate Lin Tiancheng.
The Dragon Soul Bead was wrapped in a spirit talisman, as if cast into another dimension, its aura completely severed.
"Who goes there! How dare you trespass into the prime world of our Soul Sect!!!" A team of black-robed cultivators suddenly flew in from the distance, all wearing bizarre iron masks.
Duanmu Qingtian's voice echoed continuously in Duanmu Xiaoman's ears. Having just fulfilled her master Nan Xuhui's wish, was she now destined to follow in her footsteps?
At Saint Cloud Peak, green pines and emerald cypresses thrived with vitality, enveloped by rolling clouds and mist. It was exquisitely delicate yet aloof and ethereal. Ye Yaoguang sat within her immortal cave, continuously exhaling and inhaling true essence while three phantom worlds slowly revolved behind her, clearly indicating the cultivation realm of the peak Third Heaven.
"Yi Haocheng, could you please stop being like this? I share the responsibility for this matter too, so there's no need to beat yourself up to this extent. Stop crying, come to my room and let me check your hand." Looking at the reddened marks on my knuckles with a look of distress, Qiao Yuwei immediately pulled me into her room.
At this moment, a delicate tranquility was temporarily maintained between us and Xuan Yuanlin's side, with both parties preparing for what was to come, though no one knew what the ultimate outcome would be. However, I temporarily lacked the energy to care about such matters; after all, Qingxue was the one weighing most heavily on my mind at present.
Among those of the same cultivation level, even Nalan Ruyu, a disciple of the Holy Mountain, had been defeated. Clearly, no one present was a match for them.
Now, seeing that the head of the municipal bureau intended to stick his neck out for Zhang Yueqin, they realized this was a prime opportunity to undermine Ding Bin, and thus they took action without the slightest hesitation.
Inside the room, Wei Zhongdao quietly played the role of a tool, continuing to manufacture the debt-repaying Star-Breaking Pills for the prodigal fragrance as usual, while Xun Wu quietly browsed the Pluto online shopping platform.
"My son, do you know what Xiska's real name is?" Zhou Yinghui called out to stop Li Siming.
Under normal circumstances, his Dekang factory would not even catch the eye of Junlin Corporation, yet today, for reasons unknown, Junlin had taken the initiative to propose a contract.
"Impossible!" Wei Zhongdao shook his head. He had clearly seen the blackened Youyou flying toward the moon; if he hadn't been backstabbed by Guo Jia at that time, he might have flown along with her.
Consequently, the Great Jin dynasty found itself attacked from both front and rear. The Empress Dowager panicked and hastily appointed Shen Changxing as a general to fend off the armies of the Liang and Liao kingdoms.
Li Siming had no choice but to secure a bit more protection for his wealth, even though he knew that Jin Weiyi, who couldn't possibly spend his money, would not stay for much longer.
"What on earth?" Shi Yin was deeply engrossed in cracking melon seeds, and the sound of the rain was quite loud, with raindrops even drifting onto them.
Even after starting school, Shi Yin never saw Xiao Han again. He had vanished so abruptly that no one except a few close friends found it strange.
Even so, because her shop required such a massive quantity of chili peppers, prices had risen not only in Linfeng Town but across Guixian County as well.
I shook my head, put down the toolkit, took out a face mask and put it on, then fished out a pair of safety goggles from the bottom of the box. Having grown accustomed to the stench of corpses, I had foolishly thought myself immune to all poisons, only to discover that other foul odors could be just as terrifying.
