Volume 1, Chapter 59: Dragging Shi Qingqian Down with Her

Seeing Li Sen adopt this attitude and hearing him call out that things were under control, Wang Er finally set his mind at ease. Just as he was about to suppress the pain and knock Zhou Yuefeng unconscious with his bare hands, he heard Zhou Yuefeng shouting, "I am doing fine! Are you all idiots? Look at old Cui's neck!" Upon hearing this, everyone immediately shifted their gaze to Fatty Cui's neck. They saw that the area where Zhou Yuefeng was pinching had turned pitch black, while the flesh below remained a normal color.

Little did he know that Zhang Zihao was still keeping a fierce pet hidden up his sleeve, a mutated storm hawk.

"My name is He Wei. 'He' as in what, and 'Wei' as in greatness. I am a newcomer to the business department. In the future, I hope the seniors of the business department and the sisters of the design department will take good care of me. I propose a toast to everyone!" After saying this, He Wei boldly drained the white liquor in his cup in one gulp.

The group spent the day either lying or sitting around. Although the day was leisurely, their wounds felt fine as long as they didn't move, but the moment they rested, any touch felt agonizingly painful. Yet, smiles lingered on everyone's faces—it was impossible to tell whether they were putting on an act to cheer Zhou Yuefeng up or if they had truly grown numb to the pain of their injuries.

Upon entering the underground shipyard, a wave of heat hit them directly in the face. The entire underground shipyard was steaming hot, and as far as the eye could see, aside from being packed with all kinds of mechanisms and instruments, there were dozens of white vapor plumes gushing out like hot springs.

Just as Peng Jianjun was at his wit's end, he saw Xing Feng's hand suddenly reach into his pocket, as if he was searching for something.

Someone with this level of cultivation—Hazheqiakeduo had once tested it within his clan. Back when he had just advanced to the third rank and been promoted to the rank of exterior affairs elder, he had arrogantly gone to challenge the interior affairs elders. For reasons unknown, the opponent had accepted his challenge.

Chao Gai and Li Ying talked all the way until noon, and the two sides reached agreements on multiple business collaborations. Li Ying could be said to have harvested a bountiful reward.

The two of them were caught off guard for a moment and suffered some injuries. By the time they reacted, Wan Bin's face was filled with shock. The two people in front of him—weren't they Chen Mufan and Fang Xin, whom he had seen before?

The only opportunity lay in building a new factory and, through the introduction of production lines, pursuing a clean and high-efficiency production route.

Just as a fierce battle in the main hall seemed inevitable, a loud shout suddenly came from afar. Drawing closer and closer, the people gathered at the door subconsciously stepped aside once more.

Thinking of this, Xu Ruoxue did not dare to delay. She stepped out of the courtyard and ran straight toward Shen Chuhan's courtyard.

I asked Siren to extract my memories and backtrack to the previous battle scene with the informants of the Red Gloves.

After eating plain and simple food in the countryside for so many years, she never expected there to be such delicious pastries in this era! She had grown addicted to eating them these past few days.

As the Santana drove along the road, there was no need to run the air conditioning at full blast. With just the windows rolled down, it didn't feel all that hot anymore.

As for the fanatic himself, he was not a Dream Sorcerer; he had merely simulated and recreated the Illusory Undying Body using his own techniques. However, even a true Dream Sorcerer could not bestow the Illusory Undying Body upon anyone other than themselves, yet he had miraculously managed to do it. In this regard, he was actually even more formidable than a Dream Sorcerer.

If one had to point out a flaw in the black bandages, it was that they required a moment of charging before releasing the blade aura, and this charging time took at least a tenth of a second.

No... I might as well tell the truth. Perhaps I was simply unwilling to admit that beneath the skin of that monster in human form, there also lurked a pure dream.

After handling these matters, the Crown Prince busied himself reading through the memorials sent from various regions during this period, and discovered a memorial from Yuzhou reporting that someone was destroying the rice paddies in that area.

Having thoroughly mastered the application of the two profound mysteries, Qin Yang mentally simulated and rehearsed the entire tactical routine.

"Greetings, God General Xuanyang, Elder Lian, Elder Luo!" Yang Qianyue, the red-robed Grand Archbishop of the Lieyang City Qi Shrine, personally welcomed them outside the main gates and ushered the VIPs into the palace.

Purple light suddenly brilliantized within the grand hall, and the sound of celestial music grew much louder. A solemn-looking middle-aged man with a purple-gold face, a flowing majestic beard, and an imperial crown on his head ascended to the highest throne in the grand hall, surrounded by attendant celestial officials.

Princess Scarlett's voice rang out behind them. Lin Xia turned her head and saw Princess Scarlett wearing a gorgeous and exquisite snow-white long dress, slowly walking up onto the stage and saying to her with undisguised disdain.

"Cut it out. Whenever I try to talk to you about serious matters, you just ramble and talk nonsense." Medicine Gourd had endured him for a long time. Qingling was young, pretty, smart, and capable—what was wrong with that? A young woman was even willing to lower her pride and proactively pursue him, yet he showed not the slightest reaction. Anyone unaware would think Qingling was unwanted.

As an expert in the mid-stage of the Yin Saint realm, he was temporarily unable to expel this powerful chill! Besides, his injuries at the moment were not minor, and he had no time to deal with them immediately.

Although this rabble of ghosts and monsters shouted fiercely, not a single one had actually dared to take action against the Xiao family yet.

Although this method of calculation was exceptionally cold-blooded, there was no denying that, given Chen Yi's unclear state, this was the only way Professor Liao could find to comfort himself under the absolute worst-case scenario.

Only Xie Yuting's eyes were filled with a deep hatred as she looked at her own father.

Since Luqi and the Jade Spider Zhuqi could not follow Qin Yang to the Qianling Realm, and even if they went to the Qianling Realm in the future, they could only enter spirit realms dominated by demonic beasts rather than human-dominated ones, it would also be very difficult for them to encounter Qin Yang.

This was a very bad phenomenon, and also a situation that the Beiyang leadership utterly loathed to see. It meant that Beiyang's deterrent power over the two provinces would become increasingly weaker. With the expansion of the military strength of the two provinces, it would eventually drop to a point where it could be virtually ignored.

Complaints were complaints after all; they were still family. Her son was severely injured and her husband was constantly on edge. She felt that if she were to make endless a fuss over her younger brother's death, this family would truly fall apart.

"You are setting out tomorrow morning, aren't you?" Xia Mingyuan did not deliberately lower his voice, yet what he spoke of was astonishing news.

"Hahahaha! Regular Attendant Duan worries too much. How could I not know about Jiang Qi's crisis? Do you all think I truly intend to support Jiang Qi? Not at all, this family intends to kill Jiang Qi!" Zhang Rang laughed dismissively at Duan Gui's worries, and then spoke in a stern voice.

Zhu Jun witnessed the entire process from the side. When he saw his brother acting like a complete fool with a silly grin after being kissed, his mouth twitched a few times. He quickly glanced around stealthily, and upon seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief. To think that a guy acting this foolishly was his brother—he really didn't want anyone else to know.
