Chapter 54

Johnson glared with wide-open eyes, swallowed the food in his mouth with a ferocious expression, and his very first action was to frantically search everywhere for water to drink.

On the arena stood a massive black boulder weighing a million catties, with one of its sides cleanly sliced flat.

Several powerful investment institutions and wealthy tycoons, using acquisition offers measured in tens of millions of dollars as temptation, successfully bought out roughly twenty-two percent of the shares in Snow Mountain Pharmaceutical Company from him one after another, becoming its shareholders.

Her close friend far surpassed this level; the four fragrances of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter barely met the passing mark, while the twelve gold hairpins—well, fell somewhat short. The only one capable of rivaling her close friend in this aspect was that other peerless beauty among the peerless duo, Su Muqing.

He finally found a Starbucks. Standing at the doorway, he peeked inside and saw a considerable number of customers with a long queue snaking in front of the cash register.

"Bullshit, you fucking bastard!" Hearing these words, stormy waves crashed within my heart. Although Zhang Jun had mentioned it before, no matter what, I could not believe that Yang Yi would make use of me.

Six days later, the two finally returned to the Beast Emperor City of the Orc Kingdom. The entire area outside the Beast Emperor City was no longer barren like before; it was now dotted with villages, while various workers continuously hammered away at new constructions. Seeing these flourishing sights filled him with pride regarding his past undercover mission in the Dragon God Empire.

For everyone knew that with the elder speaking these words, it signified that the county-level martial duel had officially commenced.

The road ran close to the Shinkansen line, where bullet trains could be seen flashing past from time to time at a speed approaching three hundred kilometers per hour.

This feeling of being surrounded by everyone's gazes was truly terrible, completely different from the sensation of ten thousand people following one's rhythm to dance on a stage.

Right now, Xing Shazhen sat cross-legged deep within the innermost core of the white flames, truly beginning to re-forge the Nine Lamps.

When he heard another thud of a landing coming from the courtyard and saw yet another young man vault over the wall with a gun in hand, the old man grew even more terrified. Huddled in the corner of the wall, he trembled incessantly like a sieve shaking in the wind.

I can't take it anymore, I can't hold back! A fierce battle raged inside Han Dong's mind, and eventually, base and wretched urges gained the upper hand. Moving his somewhat stiff body, he walked step by step toward the bathroom.

In the grand hall accommodating hundreds of people, an eerie silence fell, leaving only the sounds of chewing, though each person understood only their own inner thoughts.

"Director, are these chicken drumstick bento boxes? I love eating chicken drumsticks," a short old man asked with an expectant expression.

"Fatty, didn't we fail to sense any ghost qi on Agu and his grandmother when we met them earlier?" Feng Ling spoke up to enlighten the Fatty.

Lian Wu did not even hesitate and moved to speak with the envoy, only to feel his back tighten as Pang Nuan had already grabbed hold of his armor.

Though it was still early, he remained worried whether the Fatty and the others had recovered sufficiently to endure such fatigue.

"You get back here!" Long Jingyu thought to herself: This blockhead, if I don't use some forceful tactics on him, he clearly won't be an easy person to deal with.

Kudo Yumi was burning with anxiety. To protect her, her senior sister had forcefully utilized psychic abilities and must have been captured by now. Catching sight of Wu Yingbo's figure, she rushed over frantically and, losing her footing, plunged directly into a tight embrace with Wu Yingbo.

The script had been chosen by Su Nan. Cheng Siyu had read far more stage plays than Su Nan, so no matter how Su Nan selected them, she could seamlessly coordinate with her.

"I've come to bring you some food. Do you remember the flower pastries made by Auntie Xu? There's a new sweet-scented osmanthus flavor recently, and I specially bought some for you to try," Qin Sheng said, lifting the few packages of flower pastries in her hand and shaking them in front of him.

Seeing Yao Linshi's unmoved demeanor, Yao Honglie channeled his spiritual energy and urged her once more.

Zhou Ping chuckled dryly; he still possessed that much confidence. Wielding several ultimate forces of heaven and earth, with profound qi that practically suppressed the entire world, it would be utterly disgraceful if he could not even defeat a contemporary peer cultivator.

"Judging by your clothes, you're also a newcomer wanting to enter the Myriad Swords Sect. I believe you can discern my cultivation level. Since that's the case, honestly tell me, why on earth are you following me?" Ji Fan asked with a cold face.

"Of course! Have you ever seen such a handsome fool?" Locke said, holding his longsword in one hand while brushing back the hair on his forehead with the other.

"Let's head back too!" Kuina's father, who had been standing beside Locke without uttering a word, suddenly spoke up.

It was no wonder he was astonished; casually pulling out any modern technological product and throwing it into ancient times would be enough to frighten people out of their wits.

With those words, Jingmin manipulated the giant python to approach our side, while the river monster suddenly whipped its head around and lunged toward Jingmin.

Elder Han burst into sudden laughter. Xifeng's declaration of being a desperate wanderer truly moved Elder Han, striking a deep chord within him.

Even when the family was at its poorest and most desperate, she had never parted with this gold bracelet. After all, it was the only memento left behind by her husband, but now, for the sake of her grandson, she could care about nothing else.

Even so, the immense shock transmitted through the Heavenly Spirit Armor caused Xifeng to let out a muffled groan, his complexion instantly turning pale.

Liu Yuan smiled deeply and nodded: This top advisor of his could always guess what he was thinking and what he needed to know.

Setting aside his interactions with Teacher Zhao and the conflict with Teacher Wang, this Chen Luo actually dared to verbally banter with him during morning self-study as well.
