Volume 1, Chapter 52: I Choose Him!

Ji Chuanze nodded and responded politely, "Hello."

Old Zhou finally snapped out of it, stammered a couple of times, and introduced him, "Jishu's brother, this is President Lu of Seika Media, and also the leader of the project team that Jishu is in charge of."

Therefore, Zheng Chen did not dare to barge in rashly and instead observed from outside the grand hall for quite a long time.

With Sun Buqi, that major patron, having left, it was truly difficult to unload their own hot potato; housing prices in the metropolis were soaring rapidly, waiting for no one.

Without even taking out his golden whip, he directly patted his leopard-skin pouch, sending a massive halberd flying out. Wielding the halberd and charging forward, Lu Ya suddenly felt his primordial spirit become unsteady. Under such a condition, fighting against a Golden Immortal might still be manageable, but facing someone like Kong Xuan, a Quasi-Sage, proved quite strenuous. In less than three to five rounds, he was driven to sweat on his forehead and felt a sharp pain in the webbing between his thumb and index finger.

Nurse Li of the Lu family had just brought breakfast over to Qiao Mimi. Just as Qiao Mimi reached out to take it, a large group of reporters surged in like a tidal wave.

"Judging from the examination of the corpse, the time of death matches very closely. Furthermore, based on the extent of the wounds and the volume of blood loss, the death is consistent with normal findings."

Seeing Qin Xiangyuan and the others acting like that, Ru Yue and An Jingxiu were also extremely astonished. After all, regarding today's matter, both Ru Yue and An Jingxiu were very supportive.

Wei Guolin knew that he had to listen to Zhao Bin at this time. After all, Zhao Bin was Zhao Wushuang's younger brother, and furthermore, he was specifically invited by name by Zhao Wushuang for this occasion.

"What's going on?" The other party was clearly also startled and hurriedly rushed over. Afterwards, the two of them looked at the corpses littering the ground and vomited violently.

The colossal battleship empire truly stirred to life like a massive warship—slow and heavy, yet possessed of an overwhelming, unstoppable momentum.

Hum! Suddenly, boundless starlight poured down towards Lin Hai, surging directly into his body.

Black Hawk handed the bowl of medicine to Di Qing and then left. Di Qing furrowed his brows, fed her the ginger tea, and after instructing her to rest well, he also departed.

"Indeed, Elder Ma, she won't be able to escape from our grasp anyway. We might as well let her finish what she has to say." Another hall master immediately expressed agreement.

Xuan Che truly had not thought of it this way. What he never expected was that Ding Jiuxi would give such a reply, leaving him somewhat speechless for a moment.

Li Yuanhao felt her words were somewhat peculiar, yet he could not pinpoint the reason. Assuming it was merely due to her pregnancy and heightened emotional sensitivity, he did not take it to heart. It was not until she disappeared once more that Li Yuanhao began to recall this scene, filled with regret that came too late. However, all of that is a story for later.

"This residence is the painstaking creation of Mother Yin. I want to use it for the official business of the Shangguan Faction so that once the faction generates income in the future, the profits can be distributed to Mother Yin as a pension. To use it for my private purposes, wouldn't that be too extravagant?" Although Ming Yi truly loved the large residence, she always felt it was somewhat unfair to others.

Zeng Bingbing nodded and said, "Alright, wait for me a moment, I'm going to brush my teeth." After a short while, Zeng Bingbing came out and saw Li Rui picking out the shrimp kernels to eat. She walked over with a smile and said, "That must have been quite expensive, right?" After all, the cost of shrimp kernels was still quite high.

If she wanted to stay together, he would remain by her side, even if it meant a sunless, clandestine affair. If she wanted to leave, he would take her away from this place that caused her sorrow.

On the other side, the battle between Yunluo and Ye Nanpei was considerably more intense. Pei Yeheng and Qiu Xiong were merely engaging in conventional swordplay, whereas those two were confronting each other with illusions.

Rong Shaoqing and Long Sichu did not exactly cry, but the sorrowful expressions on their faces could not be concealed no matter what.

Moonlight filtered through the window, scattering across the room. The people inside gripped their sharp swords, maintaining high vigilance. Soon, a dark shadow flashed past the window. Everyone braced for combat, only to see that figure tentatively thrust a silver dart into the room. Like a pebble dropped into a calm surface of water, it stirred a wave of tension in everyone's hearts.

By the time they reached Europe, the Ming army would also conquer the Americas and colonize Africa. Perhaps within Zhu Youjian's lifetime, the scientists of the Ming Empire would land on the moon, or even explore distant Mars, and discover Prometheus on Alpha Centauri.

The muscles of the towering arm tensed as a slender bone spur slowly grew out, its sharp sheen seeming capable of piercing through any physical body.

Sheng Jiayuan's sudden approach caught Lu Chengxuan off guard. Just as she wanted to step back a few paces to maintain some distance, she caught sight of the provocative gaze in his eyes. The sharp, well-defined angles of his handsome face simultaneously emanated a sense of oppression, which suddenly made Lu Chengxuan reluctant to retreat; instead, she raised her head and met Sheng Jiayuan's gaze directly.

Chongzhen shouted inwardly to himself, knowing the principle that dragons bring clouds and tigers bring wind. The sudden appearance of a large patch of dark clouds in the sky must be an auspicious omen.

Nowadays, cancer is not necessarily an incurable disease, and it can still be treated in its early stages. However, existing treatment methods still have a massive impact on human health. After ordinary people contract cancer, amidst various pressures and the agony of treatment, true convalescence is utterly impossible; surviving for three to five years would already be considered fortunate.

This was the third day after the fall of Ningwu Pass, and the monarchs and ministers of the Ming dynasty had all their attention focused on Ningwu Pass thousands of li away.

Li Bumian felt somewhat awkward. He had never liked owing anyone anything. Originally, before leaving the Drunken Immortal Tower, Li Bumian had intended to give Su Qianqian a small gift in return, but after hurrying off to the Eastern Mansion, there was no longer an opportunity.

"Domain?" Ashen Ling looked at the circle of red battle aura beneath Mo's feet and said in shock. Even though Ashen Ling was already an eighth-level elf, she still had not the slightest comprehension of domains. Seeing now that a mere sixth-level swordsman could actually manifest a domain, Ashen Ling could not help but be shocked.
