Chapter 157 Unwarranted Guilt

Xingyao's current situation is neither good nor bad.

The matter of Tang Tang and Xing Jue's engagement had been left hanging, though it had already spread throughout Qingcheng. The advertisers who were previously talking about withdrawing their capital temporarily postponed the decision.

As long as they did not continue to pull out, Xingyao would not only be able to last for twenty days, but perhaps even another twenty days beyond that.

Siyao asked the accountant to calculate how much money Xingyao still had in its accounts. No matter how the figures were crunched, every entry turned out to be a deficit.

......

Fighting Death to a draw without any weapons shows just how formidable this creature is. To think that we, who were leaving comments above, were being watched by them all this time. After locking eyes, we wisely chose to quietly back away, for we still understood the adage that a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Even in death, its majesty persisted.

As the saying goes, everything has its nemesis. Blue Maple's kind persuasion might fall on deaf ears, but a single roar from Blue Mountain would make them obey instantly.

"A divine-tier powerhouse..." Blue Maple closed his eyes, his hands clenched tightly into fists, a profound sense of powerlessness surging from the depths of his heart.

Director Yao called the Municipal Committee Office, and the staff there said they did not know what the building was actually called either. Because they had moved in very recently and everyone simply referred to it as the new government building, they called it that too. However, the Municipal Committee was housed inside the building as well, and nobody knew who had started calling it that first.

"Huifeng, Mirror Demon Parrot, the two of you are the most familiar with the Wireless Company. Right now, I want the two of you to lead a team to scout out the situation: How many enemies are there, who are they, where are they located, and what is their purpose?"

At this moment, in front of a large karaoke parlor situated at a street intersection in the downtown area of City D, the main entrance swung open, and a file of five well-dressed individuals walked out.

"Don't ask, just get it done! Remember, dead or alive!" Without any further explanation, after dropping those words, Xu Tian hung up the phone.

Hu Cheng sneered, reached out and grabbed the big man's outstretched hand, and gave it a gentle pull. The big man instantly lost his balance, stumbled, and fell heavily to the ground. Hu Cheng planted a foot on his back, and no matter how the big man struggled, he could not manage to get back up.

The first sentence was spoken by Su Chenyang, and the second by Madman. The members of both factions deeply respected the boss in their own hearts, and their raging anger was thus forcibly suppressed by the two men.

I struggled to raise my head, enduring the pain as I forced my eyes open into a narrow slit. Amidst the blur of blood and dirt, a patch of moon-white fabric fluttered before my eyes, leading up to cascading locks of dark hair spread like a waterfall, and a tall, slender figure standing as upright as a pine tree.

Bagman pointed his wand at his throat and muttered "Sonorus," whereupon his magically magnified voice echoed across the stands.

A curse struck Hagrid's motorcycle, and with a loud roar from Hagrid, the bike flipped over.

Qingwen hurriedly went to tidy up her tools. Nimble-handed and swift-footed, she finished in a flash, rolled them up and placed them aside, then slipped into her embroidered slippers and added a few pieces of silver-frost charcoal into the warming brazier.

Right at that moment, the sound of the heavens collapsing and the earth shattering came from overhead! Rocks splintered and shattered, and something seemed on the verge of bursting out from beneath the earth within the entire underground palace.

There was a newly built, gigantic sound stage at the Huairou Film and Television Base. Inside the studio at this moment, various types of crew members were busily and nervously at work.

At this critical juncture, Dou Wei hurriedly stood up, separating the two men who were glaring at each other like competing bulls.

Fang Yue's complexion turned from pale green to dark, then to white, and finally became as yellow as gold paper. Swaying unsteadily, he vomited a mouthful of heart's blood, which stained and soaked through the thick stack of paper notes.

The giant toad was greenish-cyan all over, wearing a blue coat on its upper body, and carried a thick trident on its back.

After settling Da Huang, who was lying on the floor throwing a tantrum, Dou Wei put on a face mask, a hat, and sunglasses, fully armed before heading out.

Most children nowadays experience a rapid growth spurt during junior high school, especially in the second year, and by the time they reach high school, their physical development is already complete.
