Volume 1, Chapter 48: If You Like to Grovel Before Her, That’s Your Business, Leave Me Out of It

"How could it be useless? Sister Cheng Yan, the dosage must not be enough. Please think of another way..." Chu Yun was extremely anxious. Although she was not Chairman Chu's biological daughter, but rather his niece, her father had died early and her mother had remarried, so she had lived in the Chu household since she was a little girl, and they shared a deep bond.

He wanted to find out where Liu Jinghong had actually disappeared. Perhaps they were merely trapped there, and finding them would allow for a successful rescue.

"You noticed?" Song Yingying looked at Yang Xu in some disbelief. That man had been trailing her, and she had only realized something was amiss by chance. Yet Yang Xu was able to detect the anomaly instantly—truly impressive.

The crystal detonated, knocking loose only a thin layer from the ceiling. The falling dust caused the two of them to cough. Covering their noses and mouths, they followed up with a second square crystal.

Although it still contained a vast and mighty power of the "Blood Demon," upon closer inspection, one could see a faint, blood-drop-like spiritual energy gradually circulating within this crystal-clear relic.

The flesh ball shifted in shape as a hand slowly grew out. It could no longer roll, and was now restricted to hopping forward.

Ye Fei wondered if this fellow had something wrong with his head. He had gone to such lengths to find him, yet insisted on keeping him in suspense out of sheer misplaced pride.

In the server room on the fourth underground floor, five people came walking down the corridor from the opposite direction—naturally the five Rulers of the White Faction.

Xiao Yao was indifferent to all this. No matter how grand an airs people unrelated to him chose to put on, as long as they did not block his path, it was fine by him.

Tang Chen also retrieved a bank note for one hundred thousand gold coins from his person, along with this purple-gold card from the All-Treasure Chamber of Commerce, and handed them all over to Chen Cai.

Jiang Yungeling was seated upon the dragon throne, flipping through the memorial reports submitted after the morning court session, while Huiyu stood quietly to one side.

The Prince of Qi had always been resolute in mind. Although everyone elevated him as a virtuous prince who could save the world and bring peace to the people, he maintained his composure. Upon returning, he immediately penned a memorial of resignation for his Imperial Father, and wrote a letter to his imperial elder brother far away in Hanzhong, asking him to send people to resettle these nomadic tribes.

When the shower of iron sand came crashing down, followed by the metallic spears piercing his body, Wu Yue instantly activated Kamui, shifting his physical body into another dimension. The moment his body passed through Magneto, he immediately returned to the reality and countered with two strikes of the Six Meridians Divine Sword.

Rather than trying to remedy the situation later, it was far better to nip all crises in the bud from the very beginning.

Liu Dongfeng was about to speak again when he suddenly heard footsteps in the corridor. He hurriedly snatched Mi Xiang'er's lunch box back into his arms, and with agile movements, stood up straight beside the door.

Whether it was reflected by the firelight or something else, Ye Miao's face was flushed red, though due to her dark complexion, it wasn't very obvious. Grandmother Ye simply loved praising people too much; nine out of ten sentences out of her mouth were compliments for her.

To be honest, it was indeed impossible for an ordinary survivor faction to conquer this place. Attacking this building would inevitably result in heavy casualties.

However, this did not mean he truly consented to their relationship. It merely meant they had passed the initial trial.

"No," Duke said with a slightly unnatural expression. "We've made new progress and wanted to bring it for you to see." He took out a data disk, and Tyrion added from the side, "We thought today was just a charity gala; we didn't expect you to rush back to attend the panel discussion, and there are some old friends here too." He greeted Zhou Teng.

Mo Chi was stunned, his brows slightly knitted as he cast his gaze onto Ling Zihuan, looking somewhat hesitant as he wondered what on earth Ling Zihuan's intentions were in asking such questions.

After settling Zhou楚 in a safe place, the snow fox immediately grabbed a vine and leaped over. Seeing that the snow fox had arrived, I struck out repeatedly, landing several consecutive punches directly onto the black bear, putting my entire strength into every single blow.
