Chapter 27
If Bai Zecheng’s mother were to hear these words of his, there is no telling how furious she would be. Her skin remained as tender and fair as ever, her figure still curvaceous, and her beautiful hair was simply tied into a ponytail, cascading down her back like silk. She looked little different from five years ago, the only change being a newfound maturity and allure.
"So, the Tan family came to you because they wanted your help?" Tan Jing said with a scoff.
Cao Chengdong was stunned; he truly had no idea about this. In that case, had Zheng Rui already demonstrated astonishing creative talent several years ago? Were the people at Xinghao Entertainment all fools? Knowing Zheng Rui had talent, they still schemed against him for so long? Weren't they just asking for trouble?
Long Han exchanged a glance with Ding Xiulan, chuckled without answering her, and cast a look toward Anu.
Li Junxiu smiled subtly, concealing the surge of sorrow in his heart, his long, soft, peach-blossom eyes shining as if they might intoxicate the very breeze.
Murong Jiu had a clear objective in exchanging prey for the two sisters from the Zongzan tribe, so she did not require their gratitude.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The two clashed three times before both were pushed back several steps. Pfft... Xiao Ziyang spat out a mouthful of blood.
"I am hereby granting you the rank of Major General, as well as the position of training officer for the Dragon Soul’s Fifth and Sixth Divisions and the special forces. Your credentials will be issued shortly," Huang Chengguo stated solemnly.
"You must have forgotten the outcome of our last spar." His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked toward the bathroom, and a moment later, his voice sounded faintly.
Watching An Sujina depart with such grace, Xu Zhe had a premonition that when she successfully promoted to a five-star Origin Knight, he would surely face a bitter battle.
"Is that so? Then why didn't you step in to save them at the time, instead of letting the Demon race and the Magic Dragon race slaughter our people?" Fei asked indignantly. Given Wang Biao’s strength, saving Charlotte and the others would have been effortless.
"Ling'er, do not resist. Enter the Heaven-Suppressing Palace so that I may act without worry!" Liang Dong said tenderly.
"Li An, Li An broke my dress!" Nianxiang threw herself into Gu Xiaobei’s arms, weeping with grievance. Gu Xiaobei had doted on the child for years, and Nianxiang was extremely close to her.
As soon as the white tiger emerged, it began nuzzling Beidou. She fed it a medicinal pill, and it lay down beside her. The black tiger, however, was in the final stage of the barrier, waiting to successfully break through and transform; it had yet to wake up.
"Roar!" Mojike let out a thunderous shout. His five-meter-tall body rapidly swelled to over thirty meters, and the giant axe in his hand grew accordingly. With a roar, he wielded the axe and charged fiercely toward Charlotte.
The Heavenly Emperor’s face turned livid. It had to be said that Sophie’s grasp of timing was impeccable, striking right at the Emperor’s weak spot. But as the supreme Heavenly Emperor, how could he simply yield?
"No problem, I guarantee it can be done. Under such a threat, no one would refuse," the First Chief laughed. He truly did not believe that the United States would dare defy the demands after witnessing such a scene and hearing Liang Dong’s warning.
"Damn it, the wailing of this long-tailed monkey is truly annoying. I’ll go help it end its suffering!" Mei Cheng stared at the dying nine-tailed monkey, his face showing a trace of irritation.
Surrounded by the unique scent of Xiao Cheng, Su Qian pressed her face against his chest, quietly listening to his heartbeat. Looking at him, she knew in her heart that he was likely fine; otherwise, he wouldn't be acting this way.
"What an amazing car, it’s moving as if it has a life of its own!" Haoshu exclaimed in surprise.
Recalling the Ninth Prince’s behavior just now, Dong’e Miaoyi guessed he must have ingested some kind of drug. Who would have given it to him? Could it be Liu Caiwei? The Ninth Prince really didn't want to deal with such obvious seduction, but he didn't want to alert those above, so he grabbed Liu Caiwei.
"Preferably keep them alive, but if that’s not possible, then..." Baldy Xue made a decisive throat-slitting gesture.
"However..." As if he hadn't noticed the shock on Su Yuan’s face, Su Jinghui added slowly, "Isn't that Third Young Master a concubine-born son who doesn't hold the Prince’s favor?" With no power or influence, why was he on so many people’s minds?
The students gasped as the Gourmet Demon King appeared bare-chested, his lean, solid, devilish muscles exposed. His eyes burned with intense light as he devoured the lotus-leaf chicken in his hands, his expression one of total self-oblivion.
Deep inside, Lu Liye began to wonder: if she, Jing Xiangqing, were to hear of his past, how would she view him? Would she come to hate him because of it?
Qi Ming glanced at Mu Xue, his chest heaving. It was clear he was exceptionally angry. He remained silent, trying his best to control his emotions. Li Yan and Qi Ling also said nothing, and the atmosphere instantly turned heavy to the extreme.
Upon hearing this, Mu Qiu’s heart churned. He hadn't expected the Hundred-Turn Profound Yang Pill to have such miraculous effects.
"Miss, would you mind if I shared this table?" I walked up to Qingshuang and said, with Bai Jie and Shui'er draped over my arms, while Biyuan clung to Bai Jie’s arm.
"Sister Huang, it’s been so long, but I still don't know how you ended up inside my body?" Mu Qiu asked, puzzled. This question had been bothering him for a while; he had asked her before, but she had always skillfully changed the subject.
Time passed bit by bit. They didn't know how far they had walked or how many trees they had circled. Looking back, only a passage woven with red light remained behind them.
This time, the heavenly soldiers and generals charged like madmen, completely disregarding casualties as they tore through one defensive line of the Azure Roc Demon clan after another.
