Chapter 47: Heaven-Grade, Here I Come!
Chen Yu followed Di Qiu out of the villa area, and the two stood by the roadside.
"You, how did you do that just now?" Chen Yu had wanted to speak several times on the way out, and finally asked while waiting with Di Qiu for a cab outside.
"As you saw."
"They rumor that your Tier 2 ability is just luck. Is that true?" Chen Yu asked again.
"Perhaps," Di Qiu paused, shifting the topic back to the bizarre entity they had just encountered:
"Right, if I remember correctly—"
Hurrying all the way, she ran toward the cafeteria. The school cafeteria remained open until nine o'clock in the evening. Standing at the entrance of the cafeteria, it suddenly dawned on her that she didn't even have the contact information of more than a few teachers! What should she do now?
Wang Chen also raised his voice and shouted, but that shout felt rather strange. Leaving aside whether his teammates would misunderstand the meaning of his words, to his opponents, it was absolute provocation.
Upon seeing Wang Chen, He Jing froze instantly. By the time she gathered her wits, she quickly averted her face to the side, because she did not want Wang Chen to see her in her current state.
"No!" the man cried out in anguish, followed by a tremor of the ground, and then silence. The surface of the lake also gradually grew still.
Having heard the imperial decree, Liu Han bowed deeply. "Liu Han accepts Her Majesty's decree!" As he stood up, his clothes shifted and transformed. It was precisely the outfit from his dreams over the past few days—a black and gold ancient costume that instantly imparted a sense of overwhelming majesty.
Yin Guyu handed the three antidote pills to Ruan Xinzhi, who, that very night, meticulously sewed the pills into the lining of her sleeves.
Yan Zhen sensed that the True Man of the Nine Palaces had transformed into pure yang, utterly devoid of even the slightest trace of yin energy.
Because of this, Tu Kahuo turned a blind eye to it. Sometimes, when he acquired rare, out-of-print medicinal ingredients that Lu Yu lacked, he would even specifically set them aside for him. Through such exchanges, the two gradually grew closer, much like old friends of many years.
"Although there is no longer spiritual energy of heaven and earth on Earth, traces of cultivation remain everywhere. If I am ever able to return to Earth in the future, I must travel across the land and search for them." Such a thought crossed Lu Yu's mind.
Shortly after, Sai Mudan began tapping continuously against the ground to check for hidden mechanisms or compartments, attempting to find a way out of the secret chamber. Before long, she had tapped every single tile on the floor, yet still found nothing.
However, Jung Eun explained that it was because of some trouble with the equipment in the studio that morning. This group of guests, who were originally scheduled to record in the morning, ended up recording in the afternoon.
Although Yelu Dashi's rampant pillaging caused severe devastation to Yanjing, rendering it incapable of recovery within a few short years, his destruction also completely alienated the hearts of the people of Yanjing.
At this point, the speakers in front of the square dancers in the distance suddenly changed tracks, beginning to play a stirring, impassioning march.
Opening his eyes, Qin Ming pressed his left hand against his throbbing, swollen temple, while using his right hand to prop himself up from the bed.
"Don't worry, darling. I'm not a man of stone. You've been with me for so long, how could I ever bear to leave you?" Jimmy said, then sat down on the edge of the bed and caressed Lingling's face.
Yet in this era where ability-awakened individuals were growing increasingly formidable, the powerhouses among mercenary legions, combined with high-tech weaponry, constituted a force that the armies of third-rate nations could no longer contend against.
Liang Baoguang's phone could not be reached because he had removed the local SIM card and reinserted the one he used in the Land of Hope. He needed to call Presbyterian Hospital to check on Chamberlain Watson's condition and concurrently have them prepare the medical records and test reports in advance.
