Chapter 158: Marrying Above One's Station

Driver: "Two days."
That meant Xing Jue had been keeping watch here ever since he came out of the police station.
Xing Jue continued flipping through the photos. Among them were a few blurred shots where Si Yao could faintly be discerned.
Xing Jue tossed the camera over, leaned forward, and asked, "Where did Si Yao go this morning?"
The driver pursed his lips...
Suddenly, that Nether Spring Black-Scaled Serpent, which had been locked in a ten-day battle with Ye Siming, dragged its massive head forward to peer at him. Saliva mixed with venom dripped onto the ground drop by drop, instantly corroding and scorching the soil.
Consequently, Xue Yu'er's question remained unresolved, while Mo'er went off in high spirits to "wait upon" her prospective mother-in-law—though in reality, she went to see Xia Yiming.
[System Prompt: Teaming up can be completed via the private chat interface. Once teamed up, supplies will be split equally, and friendly fire is disabled.]
The general had refused to take her to the victory banquet, leaving her feeling uneasy inside. That time, she had disobeyed orders and sneaked off to watch.
However, the moment it was activated, this contraption rapidly generated an electromagnetic field, slowly lifting off the ground. Weighing three tons, it was effortless to hold with a single hand.
Just like those five mechanical mountain eagles, whose sole purpose of appearance was to disrupt the Blue Whale B-2 long-range support vehicle from launching aerospace satellites, while simultaneously keeping those two Falcon C-2 drone attack aircraft occupied.
Landing a role in a major director's film is no easy feat. Besides, Zhao Feier is not exactly a massive star, and her inherent traffic is quite modest. Without relying on connections, securing a good role is truly difficult.
Before she could even say much, He Yunhan was frightened to such an extent that Mo Xiaoran simply dared not continue speaking.
If He Huan were to acquire this game now—a game identical to the other, with ninety percent similar gameplay—why would players bother switching to a new one? When it launches, on what grounds would it avoid running at a loss?
Duan Jiajia checked Baidu for the address of Riddle Studio, and it was an exact match for the one they were heading to now.
However, the purple-robed man forced another bitter smile. Unreconciled, he sensed the serpent demon once again; it showed no signs of being brimming with spiritual energy as one would after consuming a spirit fruit. Nor was there the slightest trace of the intense aura left behind after a spirit fruit is plucked. Therefore, he was certain he had been played.
Skills like Sword Wolf Slash erupted instantly, forming a torrent of abilities that slammed into the boss. Everything happened so abruptly in that split second, followed immediately by the sound effect of defense being broken.
The rugged man suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Where is Ping'er? What is this place..." Master Wang hastily said, "Brother, this is my home. You passed out last night, and someone is looking after the child now." The man struggled slightly, let out a soft groan, and finally closed his eyes powerlessly, drifting back into unconsciousness.
Carving Wood flipped his palm and suddenly forced the fat man's hand away with a sharp jolt. What looked like a casual movement was executed with enough force to make the fat man's hands burn with pain.
The wife of the Marquis of Jing'an and Chu Lian shared a single carriage, while He Changdi rode on horseback, leading a guard detachment back to the ancestral residence.
Hua Mian and Ling Yue were both struck with utter astonishment. The phoenix was a legendary divine bird; how could it suddenly appear here?
"Actually, you don't need to invite me. I've already agreed to serve as a consultant for the school, and I believe it won't be long before I go back to take a look," I replied with a faint smile.
Accompanied by a flash of white light, I entered the arena. Ahead of me, a young man with braided short hair gripped a dagger tightly, dressed in light gear, looking at me coldly with a red scarf fluttering wildly around his neck.
Under such dense, close-range firepower, the thousand-odd men charging at the front were reduced to just a handful in the blink of an eye.
Hua Mian had never heard of such fierce liquor in the world, and her interest was instantly piqued. When Yan Xun brought the wine over, she poured a cup for herself. After taking a light sip, she found that while the aroma was rich, the taste was mellow and smooth, entirely devoid of any heavy, astringent, or fiery sensation. Assuming Pei Yingshi had been boasting, she drank three cups in a succession.
