Volume 1, Chapter 35: How Much Did You Say? Gao Dawen’s Shock
Page (1/3)
The battle had ended, yet Gao Da-wen had unexpectedly witnessed his own subordinates turning against one another and hurling abuse at each other in the middle of the street. If word of this got out, his fellow precinct chiefs would laugh him to death.
The higher-ups would also conclude that he was incapable of managing his subordinates, which would have a terrible impact on his future career.
How could he possibly not be furious?
Gao Da-wen strode to the middle. Zheng Yong-nian obediently followed behind without saying a word. Their leader was in a violent temper, and he had no desire to get caught in the crossfire.
“Section Chief Yu Hai-feng, Station Chief Xie Chang-kun—ha! Look at the two of you. Arguing in the street?”
“Do you have any regard for the police’s dignity?”
“Do you have any regard for my dignity?”
Gao Da-wen transformed directly into a furious lion...
The resources on this planet were desperately scarce, and the environment was brutally harsh. Every clan fought for survival, scrambling for resources and plundering anything that could possibly be used.
Shi Ji’s expression turned exceedingly grim after hearing this. She had never imagined that entering the calamity would mean this. It was even more terrifying than she had envisioned—she was being forced to kill others and seize their fortune.
After being intimate for a while and exchanging a lingering kiss, the three of them returned to their respective rooms to tidy themselves up. They changed into loose clothing, washed their faces, and came back out.
A thought began to take root in her heart—a thought even more insane than crossing the boundless Northwestern Sea and climbing Mount Buzhou, merely to offer Pan Gu the first qin composition beneath heaven.
The enormous gaps between each squad caused the flustered elven cavalry to instinctively weave through them. After all, there was no cavalry brave enough to charge head-on into those iron monstrosities.
Yet certain formations were truly terrifying. Some could even encompass an area as vast as an entire province, directly altering the terrain.
At that thought, the people nearby began spreading the news from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Before long, everyone in the Red Chamber Ward knew that Wei Zi-yang had arrived. Strange glances came from every direction and every corner.
At most, it could play only a minor role—perhaps influencing how others took to you, or affecting the choice made by the inheritance of a secret realm when selecting its successor.

The demons unleashed every attack at their disposal upon Adrian. Their methods varied wildly: venom, lightning, flames, and razor-sharp claws and teeth.
Besides, who would pay ten kilograms of gold for a single load of laundry unless they had completely lost their mind?
Those people were deeply shocked as well. They had assumed that the only demonkind in their households were the ones locked inside the secret chambers. Who could have imagined that many of their own servants were demons in disguise?
Seeing this, Liu Dong essentially understood what was happening. Someone must be planning to move against Jiang Fan. No wonder Jiang Fan had said that he was about to take action.
From time to time, an icy, sinister aura could be felt emanating from the garment. Through this miraculous clothing, one could travel directly to another world.
He could not help nodding deeply. His wife was truly virtuous and capable within the household. Though she was a great shaman, she could clearly see that the world was not yet peaceful and enlightened. She was no charlatan like the alchemists of the Martial King Temple and the Tai King Temple, who deceived the common people. Instead, she had inherited the spirit of Xi Gui. Every word she spoke was wise and penetrating—she was unquestionably a worthy shaman.
This was also Jiang Ning’s first time handling such clothing, and her movements were somewhat clumsy. But Li Hong-yuan was completely unconscious; no matter how she fussed with him, he felt nothing.
The sound of flushing water rang out. Gou Hao-dong came out while pulling up his trousers, and Song Si-xuan pushed him aside and slipped inside.
Li Xie narrowed his eyes as he watched the resentful spirits drifting before him. Faint gray-black wisps rose from their bodies, while their two pitch-black, hollow pupils revealed hatred and malice.
Ning Chen-yang nodded. It was true: among the several hundred outer disciples, those two were the most qualified to enter the inner sect. However, they had earned that qualification by exploiting others to increase their own strength and cultivation.
When Madam Ma entered and saw her appearance, she found that she was still beautiful—even bound, gagged, and disheveled.
He reached out and pulled Jiang Ning into his arms. Before she could recover, he pressed his lips fiercely against hers.
“Stop explaining. Go kneel on the ants. You must kneel until you can’t die from it.” Zhang Qiao-qiao extended her right hand slightly, her eyes fixed on Brother Yang’s waist.
Sword Man smiled and said, “There’s no need to stand on ceremony with me, my lord.” With that, he turned and walked inside.
Chu Hao-tian did not actually want to either, but the shackles of heaven and earth had not completely dissipated, and there was nothing he could do.
He looked up. Fireworks blossomed across the sky, forming several words: Jin Lin, I Love You.

Not only that, but several ribs in his chest had been shattered, and his internal organs had suffered severe injuries.
Without a doubt, everyone qualified to come here possessed enough wealth to cover every expense incurred in the training grounds, as well as any liability arising from possible accidents.
After work, Zhang Ming-yu had a heavy drinking session with his colleagues from the Security Department and Li Ji-ye from the Planning Department. He then circulated his cultivation technique to force the alcohol from his body before driving straight to the Purple Radiance Apartments.
“We’re already very close to Cloud Platform Cave. If we beat their disciple down from the sky right in front of them, wouldn’t that be a little too much?” Camus looked up at the two figures and spoke with a hint of sympathy.
When the nine pills flew out, the Pill Sect elders stared in stunned disbelief. They could clearly sense that these Hundred-Spirit Soul-Expanding Pills possessed tremendous medicinal power and were high-grade pills of the finest quality. Yet he had refined them without using a pill furnace—and they were high-grade pills at that. To make matters even more astonishing, he had produced the full number of pills. Every aspect of this had surpassed their understanding.
The position of Imperial Profound City was simply too unfortunate. It lay along the only route by which the demonic beasts could bring in their armies, while Vermilion Bird City stood behind it as an excellent rear base. No one could estimate how many demonic beasts would come, but Imperial Profound City would inevitably be breached sooner or later.
Li Yun-qi began to sneer. The moment he did, Hu Li immediately joined in with a mocking laugh, and the other four followed suit.
“We didn’t know each other before, but now we do... There’s something I’d like to ask you. Since Brother Fang is here, why did you still invite me? With his strength, combined with all the evolved ones here, you should already be able to resolve the problem.” Wei Yue-kai asked.
One need only look at their expressions to know how they felt at that moment. The pressure of the entire day seemed to have been released. Their facial features were no longer taut as before but had relaxed, becoming gentle and serene, as though they had returned from the vast darkness of night to a warm, brightly lit home.
Now that Du Xiao-mei had made the first move, perhaps this was a good thing for Lu Wei-min. It suggested that many things would gradually pass away.
This was probably a special form of transportation maintenance in the apocalypse. Otherwise, who would be willing to maintain the roads?
Several thousand Mo-Blade troops and Wei soldiers let out a furious roar. Their already terrifying aura surged another level, causing Shuo Shi and the other generals in the rear to shudder with fear, their faces paling.
Xiahou Dun was fierce and aggressive, but he was even more loyal. For Cao Cao, and for the realm of Wei, he had no choice but to steel his heart and issue this order.
When all was said and done, Cao Xian was practically a stranger to them. Their initial complaints had merely come from their dissatisfaction. Asking them to resist Cao Cao’s order on Cao Xian’s behalf was utterly impossible.
