Volume 1, Chapter 36: Inferior
At the construction site of the Great Yellow River Bridge, thousands of people were bustling about. These refugees worked with immense diligence, never slacking off. It was hardly surprising; such favorable treatment was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they lived in constant fear of being dismissed. Consequently, the construction progressed with remarkable speed, and in a mere ten days, the massive foundation piers had been poured.
Song Chenfei felt a flicker of doubt in his heart. "Chenfei, has anyone been causing trouble recently?" Given the depth of their relationship and affection, if Yi Feishi truly harbored any malice toward Xie Mao, Xie Mao would undoubtedly be dead.
He searched the sofa over and over, nearly tearing the fabric apart, but he could never find Xie Mao.
The sound resonated like a thunderclap within the cave, not only shaking the dust from the ceiling until it fell in a continuous stream but also frightening the disciples of the Heavenly Cang Sect until they trembled like chaff. Even Ling Miao was startled, and the Spirit Dance Soul Whip in her hand retracted instantly.
Everyone looked on; the lotus flowers had clearly all withered. Even though Ye Chu was telling a bald-faced lie, he was doing it entirely to cover for Ye Jiarou, truly a heartfelt effort.
The car that Han Wei and the others had arrived in was still where the fake traffic police had stopped them. Their original intention had been to retrieve the vehicle, but now that they were being followed, they simply hailed a taxi to the hospital. Although Old Zheng and Li Hua were not seriously injured, they still needed treatment, and more importantly, the hospital was sparsely populated at this hour, making it difficult for their pursuers to remain hidden.
He did not know if the Bald Eagle had returned yet; perhaps he was already back at the hotel, or perhaps he was still out. Regardless, Han Wei would not get up to check. At this moment, he only wished to stay by Lin Xue's side.
The excuse was flawless; had Xiaoyaozi not known their true objective, he might have genuinely believed they were there to purchase demon beast lung crystals.
"That's right, I am the third smartest person in the world~" Qin Fengyi found the Emperor's touch quite gratifying, and he comfortably nudged his head against the Emperor's palm.
"Since he entrusted his close friends and family to us, it means he trusts us. We must not fail that trust... After all, they are descendants of our Human Alliance," said the God of Gale.
The Great Dragon did not appear over Falling Leaf City that day; perhaps it had taken human form to discuss certain matters with the Lord of Falling Leaf City.
Just then, the Demon army, which had been in the distance, drew closer to the Moonlit Night caravan. Seeing this, Yue Chen said nothing further.
Because once a novice trainer chose a Pokémon using this special Poké Ball, they were not permitted to abandon their starter Pokémon at will.
Not long after Oran sat down, it was Mier's turn to enter. She skillfully helped Oran change, though it was far from bedtime, as one more guest—Adasha—had yet to arrive.
Yes, but there is always the possibility of a signal loss, Yue Chen muttered to himself, not to mention the possibility that it might teleport me here just to hand over a double kill.
That night, Mo Ling happily cultivated while clutching the fresh, warm source he had just redeemed, while elsewhere, the Wei estate was ablaze with lights.
Suddenly, the monsters lost track of Fang Yuan. They could only wander futilely around the fences, hoping to catch a trace of his scent.
Her mouth was pried open, and she was forced to drink clean water and chew on breath-freshening herbs. How delicious! She gulped it down.
"Boss, is this really okay?" Chen Ying'er could naturally see that the item before them was a component of an Epic-grade equipment set.
Upon hearing this, Bibian shuddered. Although Wudi did not look like a good person, she dared not disbelieve his words.
After greeting Li Yilong at the gate, Xiao Zheng set off toward Anren Palace. He had not eaten dinner yet, and at this hour, he might still catch Consort Su at her meal.
Treading on the soft sand, Su Xiao patted the camel beside him. The camel was obedient and began to follow the one in front. Despite the sweltering heat, the creature shivered slightly.
