By the third day, Zhang Che was finally relieved, as Comrade Zhang Weiguo had returned early from Busan.

"Then it depends on Director Cao’s determination!" Zhang Che said calmly. This issue had actually been discussed during their last meeting—Cao Xiaozhen was momentarily conflicted about how to treat the guests.

The Soviet Union exchanged Chiang Kai-shek’s son to secure the Chinese chief liaison of the Comintern, which seemed a mutually beneficial deal.

Below, the alien commander and Yellow Springs, hidden beneath the dome, remained in shock. Yang Dongqing’s strength had once again surpassed their expectations. Despite being surrounded by over a hundred sixth-level warriors, he cut through them effortlessly, killing more than a dozen in quick succession. Had he truly just advanced to sixth level?

Zhang Che smiled, not stopping him, simply beckoned the junior member over and handed her a task sheet.

After leaving the late-night diner, Jin Minshuo let out a light chuckle. His visit to the diner was not as he had told Lin Xun; he had another purpose, known only to himself.

At that time, the Buddhist temple was not only a place for worship but also a popular spot for locals to relax and enjoy, thanks to its vast grounds. The Galang Temple, the premier forest in Jinzhou, boasted many scenic views.

Compared to the Black Emperor Black, Li Yudi’s situation was evidently more severe.

“Hey, this time it seems different, oppa. Look, there are words here!” Song Zhien suddenly noticed writing beneath the food box.

“Let go of me!” Lord Sunny’s eyes blazed with fury, glaring at Zhang Che. He had never seen such a shameless fellow. Park Jiaxi’s oppa even called him a good-for-nothing good man, but was there ever a good man who would throw someone onto the bed?

With Nan Yingxin’s boldness, how could she dare defy him? She would obediently comply.

“The Golden Land lives up to its name. Bonis, Barnett, you two immediately transport all the gold onto the ship and guard it strictly. It’s time for us to return to the Great Route!” Though delighted, Rayn remained composed and quickly issued orders.

Le Yuanyi stood nearby, hearing their words, he offered no criticism for their actions. All development in this world has its causes and effects. Cheng Ruoshui’s fate was her own doing—no pain, no gain—a phrase his mother often repeated.

But why did Doctor He immediately recognize this kind of poison? Could it be that his personal eunuch had been bribed?

Better not keep Lady Huo waiting too long lest she be left with an even worse impression. Gu Xingliang pondered for a few seconds before quickly heading downstairs.

He had no aversion to becoming a pirate. After all, Tiger, hailed as a hero by the fish-men, was the founder of the Sun Pirates. So in Barnett’s mind, given the current situation, being a pirate was actually a good choice.

Xu Hong silently watched the carriage disappear from sight, silently lighting a candle for his leader.

Sure enough, news of the video had already spread wildly across the internet.

“How did the longevity pill get auctioned off? I was only late for a moment. Didn’t you know to save the longevity pill for the later auction?” Mo Chengye was anxious, ignoring the crowd around him, he scolded the chief steward harshly.

Meanwhile, the driver was stunned upon seeing Lin Xu’s current appearance.

After all, befriending such a master craftsman meant one could always seek their help when custom magical instruments were needed.

The itching under the skin grew unbearable, as if poisonous worms crawled through the veins, their target being Li Jiayan’s crimson lips.

Yet the remnants of the Blood Bat Palace operated in secrecy, their actions unpredictable, never leaving an opportunity for assassination.

From the very beginning, everyone in the livestream had rushed to watch Song Jiao Jiao instead.

Originally, they thought no one but guards remained at Weiming Mountain, but as they approached the gate, they saw two carriages and several people gathered around a table, shouting and making a lively scene.

It felt as though none of his weapons could be hidden from Lu Boting, yet Ye Li remained tense, unwilling to be completely seen through by this man.

The assistant sighed upon seeing his boss like this; it seemed this time his boss owed General Lu quite a favor.

Ye Jianming had initially agreed to be with Lu Boting because, among that circle of wealthy heirs, there was no man more outstanding than Lu Boting.

Sun Xinmiao rarely communicated with him, so under these circumstances, no one knew what had happened to Sun Xinmiao.

Besides coordinating work with Fox, he had also visited several heads of major companies.

But upon entering Jin Bank, everyone was busy with their own affairs, no one came to greet or acknowledge him, as if he did not exist as the deputy director at all.

The fixed long shots dragged on endlessly, with no change in the frame, causing impatience.

He hooked a finger, and something fell from the skirt. As he instinctively bent down to pick it up, someone clamped onto his waist.

Zhou Nan held her like this, letting her rest atop him without feeling her weight. His arms wrapped around her waist and back, afraid she might roll off.

“Hey, guarding Jinshan and still asking for food—if Uncle Cheng hadn’t said so, I wouldn’t have believed it,” Qin Fengyi remarked.

Later, Chen Xiyuan deliberately tarnished Ye Chuo’s reputation to win over Ye Jiarou, claiming Ye Chuo was arrogant and overbearing, causing her reputation to plummet.

From Lu Ang’s previous knowledge, among the northern noble families, the Shangguan family, as the imperial clan and controller of the royal guards, was among the top, with formidable strength and deep roots.
