Chapter 52

Fortunately, it happened to be the day the landlord collected the rent, which spared her corpse from becoming food for flies and rats.

Giving Bo Wang a white-eyed glance, she couldn't even be bothered to acknowledge him and climbed straight into the passenger seat.

Because of the later stages of technological development, the humans of their planet no longer needed to rely on food to maintain their energy at all.

"This one is a novice. I was just planning to try her out tonight. Since Young Master Yu is here, let a beauty be presented to a hero," Yan Guang said.

Although Xiao Jian was not a man of many words, he excelled academically. Whenever anyone had a question, they loved to ask him, and he would always patiently explain things to his classmates.

"Doctor Wang! Open the door!" Yu Sicheng kicked at the doors of each room on Floor E, shouting loudly at the entrance.

"The wooden arrow is poisonous," Tan Xiling warned in a low voice. As soon as she finished speaking, a strong wave of dizziness washed over her. Her legs grew weak, and she half-knelt on the ground, struggling to keep herself from collapsing.

Yet, in the eyes of military strategists, Phoenix City was clearly the more vital strategic stronghold, while Yangzhou was merely a place for sightseeing.

Understanding the hint, the assistant immediately left, fetched a coat to drape gently over Su Yao's shoulders, and then withdrew to sit elsewhere to review and arrange the upcoming schedule.

Especially this one—it truly bore no suspicion of plagiarism as of yet. After all, themes like this were exceedingly rare; even if someone were writing them, very few would dare, as such a bold theme was prone to failure.

Furthermore, as public figures and college students who were damned young, choosing to build a family and bring a child into the world was undoubtedly true love. Such genuine affection was bound to win a massive following.

I narrowed my eyes, wanting to see who was shouting so loudly outside my door and disturbing my sleep. At that moment, however, I heard the voices coming from the corridor.

"Then how should we look for it? Without any clues or breakthroughs, searching so blindly means that even if the dark curse has taken effect, we probably won't find anything," I looked at Chen Zhibin and asked.

Gu Xi felt helpless, neither objecting nor agreeing, as long as those people did not come to bother him.

"The Governor-General surely does not know that the Emperor has entrusted the purging of the eunuch faction to Lord Han, does he?" Fan Yongdou threatened once more.

The wind was blowing, birds were chirping, and autumn insects were whispering, blending together into a sound more beautiful than music—a melody as enchanting as a lover's soft murmurs.

Watching her precious son being threatened right before her eyes, Zhou Zhihua was overcome with fury, yet she could not afford to throw a tantrum at that moment.

Gu Ying had already completed the design work for the pastries. Drawing inspiration from the trendiest contemporary fashion concepts, she created a stunningly gorgeous design. Adorned with a printed cartoon image of Gu Tian, the entire set of cream-filled cookies instantly assumed an upscale and sophisticated aura.

During the first hundred epochs of creation, however, the God Kings produced were truly far more than just one or two. In those eras, the world had just been born, causing the primordial energy to overflow so abundantly toward the outside that the emergence of a God King every few epochs was entirely possible.

Now that their captain had returned and the crisis at the base camp had been lifted, wasn't it time to send them to the battlefield?

Elder Jin looked at Niuhuang, seemingly deep in thought. Stroking his beard, he glanced between Niuhuang and Qin Feng.

Many experts harbored countless questions, but no one voiced them, for the people of Kyushu had nowhere left to retreat.

Following the source of the demonic Qi, they boarded a train that likewise radiated an overwhelming amount of demonic Qi, rumbling forward toward their intended target.

This only added to Hyuga Hizashi's pressure. Judging by Shimura Danzo's anger just now, he suspected that if he announced Danzo as the third place, Danzo might throw a fit on the spot.

"Your academy should have a student named Dugu Yan, right? I am here to look for her," Qin Ling said calmly.

Although the protagonist was named Bai Qi, he did not turn out to be the exceptional, qilin-like figure his family had hoped for. Even so, to comfort his late father's spirit, Bai Qi still wanted to be a good official.

Meanwhile, amidst a dense and murky fog, the vegetation was entirely dark red, and withered vines stretched out like claws everywhere. What met the eye was a desolate and eerie forest.

Just as Su Jin was sulking, Qingyin's voice echoed from outside the tent, "Your Highness, Your Highness!" Uncle Huang and Jun Luo looked at Qingyin's boisterous demeanor and shook their heads helplessly.

Zhuifeng, who had been pulled down, protested unconvinced, "Your Highness, I wasn't causing trouble." Then, batting his eyelashes, he added, "Your Highness, actually I am also quite handsome. I wonder if you've noticed?"

"Mr. Wang Yong, do you remember in how many places and at how many points in time you appeared during those three years you time-traveled?" Lan Yueer asked.

This soup delivery continued for several weeks. Though Tong Guai felt like she was going to throw up from eating it, she never dared to throw it away and still drank every single drop to the bottom every day.

Hulan Ruo's elite cavalry had expanded to tens of thousands, stationed in the lee of a distant hill. Hulan Ruo stood high on a ridge, gazing south toward the direction of Manwei City.

That fluorescent green light was not their eyes, for they seemed to have no eyes at all; rather, that fluorescent green glow emanated from their pale green shells.

"What?" Hearing Bai Ju's words, Zhongli Yuxuan leaped straight up from her stool, startling Bai Ju with her sudden movement.

I nodded, gazing at Ying Chao and the array disc before me. Pondering the array techniques the Ying family excelled at, it seemed I began to understand something.
