Chapter 26: My Brother Loves Me Too Much
Li Liyun let out an angry curse and swung her hand to slap Shi Manyue across the face, but before her hand could make contact, Shi Manyue grabbed her wrist firmly and pushed her away with force.
It was not until Shi Manyue’s retreating figure completely disappeared through the main gate that Tang Yi received a signal from Yan Xilou and drove away.
Mo Feng descended rapidly. As he fell, he discovered a large building below; upon closer inspection, it was the university that had vanished.
Cheng Hang’s heart skipped a beat, but fortunately, the fifteen hundred taels belonged to the young master of the Bai family. Since it was essentially a wash, neither gaining nor losing, he prepared to leave the table.
Usually, I would chat with Wu Gang while riding in the car, but today I simply couldn't muster the interest to speak. On the way back, I remained silent the entire time.
They were all somewhat tempted. I knew there were definitely girls among them who wanted to marry a wealthy man, but I wouldn't point it out. To do so would bruise their self-esteem; everyone cares about saving face.
Jiang Hao could still have been that sapling growing carefree under the shelter of his parents. Originally, he dared not rebel because of them, and he had thought that after this year things would finally change, but why had it turned out like this?
Kuang Yingying backed away continuously until she reached the door, with nowhere left to go. Dean Wang took off his clothes and began to remove his trousers as well.
"Jiang Xin, can you not be so cold, so eager to draw a line between us?" Ye Hui’s voice suddenly rose, his tone becoming agitated.
At the Cheng family feast a few days ago, Magistrate Ge had treated this second wife like a stranger, everywhere trying to protect the vicious concubine Sui Linglong. But now, in the eyes and words of Magistrate Ge, there was no trace of Sui Linglong; his attention was entirely focused on Jia Xinlan before him.
If Ling Aotian’s previous slaying of more than twenty early-stage Saint-level experts had shocked the army of destruction, then the scene they were witnessing now was enough to fill them with terror.
Those unfortunate souls who had just perished had died in all sorts of bizarre and unpredictable ways, leaving no room for defense.
At this moment, Song Xuan tossed Jimmy aside as if he were trash, then reached out and pressed the button hidden within the table.
At that moment, a deafening roar of magical beasts erupted from the forest surrounding the area where Ling Aotian and his group were located.
Lu Bu had a feeling that if he didn't find a way to vent this power, he would sooner or later explode and die from his inability to suppress the surging energy.
Mu Fan retrieved the sword manual from his storage ring; during the journey these past few days, he had written down all of his cultivation techniques.
"Miss, you've returned." Lan Yimo suddenly flashed out from behind the door, laughing when he saw her disheveled appearance.
"Enough, stop the nonsense. The thin threads that allowed those magical beasts to share power have been destroyed; it is time for us to strike back," the Ghost King interrupted the Phantom Demon King, who was about to ask more questions.
"Follow me, I can resolve your doubts," Mian Tuan said as he ran toward the martial arts arena behind Nian Su Mountain.
Is there truly no such thing as fate? Why did Zhang Jian exhaust all his efforts, only to be heartlessly turned away in the end?
The captain explained, "To cure an illness, one must first understand how the patient became ill. Once the cause is understood, the corresponding treatment can be applied. Let's ask Xixi."
The captain said to Beiya, "Beiya, wait for us at the control center. We won't be long."
"Damn it, I'll fight you to the death!" Although the dwarf knew he was no match for Liuxing, he had to make an attempt. Even an ant clings to life; if he fought, he might die, but if he didn't, he would certainly die.
"Can't you sleep either, Xing?" Liuxing felt the sensation of Qiong’s hand resting on the quilt.
The captain replied with a smile, "Although it is pure gold, it is nowhere near as valuable as you suggest."
The two groups had just been passing each other. At the time, Kumu had sensed a powerful energy radiating from them, which seemed to be fel energy. When he looked back, they had already launched an attack. The person wearing the skull emblem had flown into the air and kicked; even an expert like Kumu could not react in time.
Qiu Xuan, having lost too much blood, was still very weak. Although his external wounds had healed, the effects of severe blood loss could not be reversed overnight, and Qiu Xuan had been bedridden for a month without moving.
Bernard and Long Peter exchanged glances, both seeing the disappointment in each other's eyes; this matter... it seemed there was no turning back.
The New York Stock Exchange was gradually recovering, but our Nasdaq index remained stuck at 987 points. Was hitting a thousand really that difficult?
Making money is not easy, but spending it is all too simple. The most expensive building in the vicinity of Ginza Hachicho—the Wako Building—is now under my name.
...Someone is using that useless nephew to stir up trouble, and the power behind it is none other than Luye City or Blood Red Bay.
"Officer Zhao, you don't have to believe what I say, but you should at least believe in the Lin family's determination to deal with the Liao family, right?" Chen Minghua countered.
The Raging Dragon King was severely injured, but given its vitality, it would certainly not die. The problem was that the black beam of light had sought it out once more, piercing through its thigh. Its balance was severely compromised, and it stumbled and fell from a lack of footing.
"I have obtained this soul fragment; you can go and threaten Guo Ziyang now. I just don't get it—was it really worth it?" The man walked to a remote area and tossed a bottle in his hand to a man wearing a bamboo hat under the moonlight.
It had to be said that the man did have some skill. Despite his bulky build, he was not lacking in speed. In the blink of an eye, he reached Ding Yu and threw a punch. However, Ding Yu merely smiled, tapped the man’s arm lightly with his palm, and deflected the heavy blow off course.
