Chapter 54: Stand Upgrade
For several days, there was no news of Mozhi Yue, leaving Gongcheng Ling as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Clearly, he did not want to drag her down with him, yet his heart could not help but yearn for her.
To go and see her was out of the question, and not to go was equally impossible; his heart remained in absolute turmoil.
Ji Zhanfei looked at his conflicted master and finally could not resist asking:
"Master, who on earth are you actually in love with...?"
"Nonsense, it is Yue'er, of course. My heart has never changed."
The kneeling challengers all around inhaled sharply at the sight, not daring to make the slightest unnecessary movement.
The sudden appearance of a merchant ship at the stronghold of the Flying Fish Pirates caught their members by surprise, but these pirates were certainly no pushovers.
Just as Takagawa had anticipated, the government chose to conceal the existence of the parasites out of fear that panic would spread among the citizens, and even pinned a charge of arson on Hirokawa Takeshi.
Yao Jingjing did not understand Russian and had no idea what was being said, but Maria looked furious. What on earth had happened?
Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind: rather than wandering around aimlessly searching for the super city, why not deliberately leak his own whereabouts and let them come looking for him?
"They are deliberately stalling for time just to give Naertu a chance," Condi realized.
"Shameless jerk, you touched my butt!" After landing a slap that hardly vented her anger, Maria raised her shopping bag and smashed it fiercely against the lecherous man's head.
Different chefs produced dishes with varying flavors, but to achieve this level of quality, Chef Zhao felt it was already more than enough.
When Yi Huaijin found He Jingxing, the latter was being punished by Master Chen to hold a horse stance, with a total of four sandbags hanging from his arms, looking utterly miserable.
Come to think of it, Lin Xi hadn't seen Dr. Luo for quite a while. Catching sight of him all of a sudden, she was filled with astonishment.
Days later, Dugu Shang, Gu Hengsheng, and the others bid their farewells. Having his own path of the sword to pursue, he departed from Floating Life Mountain.
For reasons unknown, watching Zhang Fan make a comeback and slaughter his way back displayed a sheer audacity that felt nothing short of madness.
Perhaps that fellow had already grown accustomed to Hills's feminine traits; even if someone shouted at him that he was a transvestite, he probably wouldn't even react.
Nonsense, could he possibly be unaware? But he had already made her raise her guard against him from the bottom of her heart; how could it be so easy for her to soften?
"Xiao Yao, do not push your luck!" Xiao Yuan roared angrily. The two Grade-A transcendent items had already caused him excruciating pain, yet now Xiao Yao was still unsatisfied?
Subsequently, Gu Hengsheng's right hand moved like a demon, directly unleashing a blood-red sword slash billowing with demonic energy. The crimson and black sword Qi seemed capable of devouring the blood of millions of living creatures as it shattered the void and struck toward Nangong Han.
Ming Nan nodded to indicate his consent. Since the terms of the rain and dew had already been brought up, he would not show his displeasure even if he felt unhappy inside, because he was fully capable of understanding.
Gu Hengsheng and Beigong Xin gazed into each other's eyes. Time ticked away drop by drop, and the entire world felt suffocated under an immense pressure.
Not to mention Adam, who was so startled he tumbled right off the platform, even Lin Xiao was taken aback. He had never expected Arnold to launch a direct attack after merely exchanging two words.
Hearing this, the two of them could not help beaming with joy. The hearts that had been hanging in suspense were now mostly set at ease.
Chu Haoran tilted his head, cast a glance up and down at Liu Die, and without saying anything further, followed Fang Qihua into the elevator.
Chu Haoran looked at the chief, then glanced at Situ Guo and Li Peixia, and dropped his formalities. With a nod, he sat down right beside the chief, though without appearing overly presumptuous. It was not out of fear, but rather because he held this chief in genuine and profound respect.
A golden avenue rolled out before them as petals danced across the sky. With the golden path unfurling, the grand entrance carried an aura of absolute majesty.
