Chapter 57: Meeting My Sister Again

The next day at noon, after finishing lunch, Ning Lu and Lu Yanfeng boarded a private jet to return home, a flight lasting nearly eight hours.

As soon as the plane touched down, Lu Yanfeng rushed off without a moment's delay to the company to handle work, instructing the driver to take Ning Lu home.

Halfway home, the car stopped in front of a clubhouse, and Ning Lu was momentarily stunned.

The car door was pulled open, and Ning Lu raised her head in surprise, watching someone swagger into the vehicle.

......

While An Qiao and Kong Qi were completely off guard, Yinyang Zhengze suddenly unleashed a ultimate technique. The sky instantly split into two halves—one brilliant with light, the other blood-red. Two blades simultaneously materialized from the dual-toned firmament, one blazing with golden light, the other glowing with a dark, sinister crimson.

By the time they reached Yuzhou, heavy snow began to fall, making travel utterly impossible. Qin Fengyi ordered a halt in Yuzhou to rest and regroup, personally inquiring about the padded winter clothes and cold-weather gear for every single soldier.

Regardless of what fellows like Zoro, who were eager to grow stronger, might be thinking, Vivi and Nami were also acting quite strangely, displaying a hesitant demeanor as if they had words stuck at the tips of their tongues.

He would occasionally lie to her, promising that once her teeth healed and stopped hurting, he would take her out to the streets to eat delicious treats.

In the eyes of the surrounding disciples, Lin Yi's strength had already far outpaced ordinary disciples. Competing against the strongest among the inner disciples was no easy feat to begin with.

Originally, this matter was merely intended as a catalyst to implement the new policies, but since it had now been brought to the table, it naturally had to be advanced alongside the reforms. Taking advantage of the fact that the reformist faction was running themselves ragged, the Directorate of Ceremonies intercepted the matter midway.

Accidents like Pei Dang's were not shielded by the live-stream monitor's blocking and protection protocols, allowing the honorable audience to clearly witness the male streamer's embarrassing moment.

Emperor Jing'an had already permitted Dayang and Atai to participate in the captive-surrender ritual, yet he still did not forget to add the name of the Eldest Prince's legitimate grandson, Yong'er, to the memo for the Ministry of Rites. Since the Eldest Prince was already thus disposed, Emperor Jing'an intended to test the grandson's aptitude.

"Instead of fighting me, you'd better go heal the injury of the Fifth Division's lieutenant first!" Just as I arrived, I heard the fox-faced Ichimaru Gin say this to Toshiro, after which Gin vanished via flash step.

A defense organized entirely on the basis of terrain could never withstand such fierce artillery fire. To prevent further casualties, they had no choice but to order a retreat to the second line of defense established by the Faisal organization.

A solemn look appeared on Xie Wuji's face for the first time. His hands formed tiger claws, sharp as hooks; his left hand curved upward and downward, while his right hand hoisted upward from below, forming the stance of the Yin-Yang Tai Chi, which he held against his chest. As those specks of light and shadow drew near, his upper body, waist, abdomen, arms, and claws all kept swaying rhythmically left and right without stopping.

Although Russell did not explicitly state it, the robed elders in black and white knew very well who he was referring to.

Although Director Su was the head of the Department of Internal Medicine at the Banyang City Hospital, Old He was an expert sent directly down from the Provincial Hospital. Not only was he exempt from Director Su's jurisdiction, but Director Su also had to constantly walk on eggshells around him.

Shi Yu continued to pull Barton along for selfies. To Li Yongle's slight surprise, Zhao Zeyu was well-acquainted with another friend of Wei Zihan's, and judging from their conversation, the two had clearly known each other for a long time.

Hua Xirui had given the Huajian Jade to her, and according to the old man, this piece of Huajian Jade belonged to Hua Yun. Thus, the relationship between Hua Xirui and Hua Yun was very easy to guess.

The young man looked at a glance like a wealthy scion from a prominent family, reeking of alcohol and swaying unsteadily as he walked.

With that, Jiang Yan grabbed a stack of bidding application forms and handed one to each person. Whenever they spotted a promising piece of jadeite rough, they could write down the identification number on the stone along with their intended bid, and submit it to the organizers for the auction.

Liu Feng was currently consumed by rage. How could he, a dignified and formidable Martial Emperor of his generation, be threatened in such a manner by a mere Martial King?

Another wave of pressure bore down, forcing Zhu Mei'er and Zhu Yaqing to bend their waists. There was nothing special about this place, yet it served as the graveyard of sorcerers.
