Volume 1, Chapter 57: Reactions from All Sides
Yet who could have expected that the ultimate outcome would be his precious son suffering an even more miserable defeat and losing all his face? Not only that, but he was also given a thrashing by Su Yuan at the first opportunity.
"Father should be at home these days. When you see him later, you must show him the utmost respect, understand?" Along the way, Diana reminded Ron over and over again, terrified that something might go wrong.
Leaving the task of speculation to his grandfather and father, Zhang Tianyang cast his gaze not far away. The Northern Dipper Clan, which used poison just moments before, was currently locked in a fierce, grueling battle with their opponents.
There was no need for him to step in personally; why hadn't she thought of using legal connections to lawfully track her down?
Deep down, I felt utter contempt for this kind of behavior, because even the country's top-tier professional esports teams wouldn't resort to such tactics. For a mere offline team, was any of this truly necessary?
Ximei pushed Green Girl aside, struck Young Master Bei twice with her fists, and dashed outside. Terrified, Green Girl rushed out the door—not to chase after Ximei, but to find Yin Dayin, convinced that Young Master Bei was surely dead by now.
"Master Li, let's not beat around the bush. We know you are no longer Master Li, but rather one of the decoration workers who died a tragic death in this villa, aren't you?" I asked, cutting straight to the point.
"Very well, then I shall not disturb the fairy any longer. I will go urge the Hundred Flowers Fairy first," the middle-aged man said with a slight darkening of his gaze, before turning and leaving.
Just as Long Tian stepped into that room, a helicopter touched down behind the hospital, and Luo Zhili, wearing an expression of deep anxiety, strode rapidly out of the aircraft.
"Shunzi, let's start a fire to keep warm. I'm freezing to death," Old Hei said with a trembling voice.
At this thought, Long Tian stealthily glanced at the Demon King, but within the game, the Demon King gave away absolutely no clues or flaws for Long Tian to discern.
This was Artoria utilizing her own spiritual power in conjunction with the brilliance of Avalon to help High Priest Hakushin attain Buddhahood.
"Yes, Boss!" The beast spoke in human language. Its true form was not of a high lineage—it simply looked like an oversized tiger. Ferocious beasts of such low bloodline rank were incapable of speech before reaching the realm of Mighty Ones. Yet, at this moment, it had actually spoken, which proved that its strength had already reached the level of a Mighty One.
As Liang Shan finished speaking, a spark leaped from between his eyebrows and landed on Ximen Wanchun, instantly transforming into black flames.
The moment Wang Jinteng's phone began to ring, the room fell completely silent. Everyone stared straight at Wang Jinteng. Looking excited, Wang Jinteng checked the screen and saw that the call was indeed from Director Xu.
Wu Hua was a punk at heart. After being repeatedly and viciously beaten by complete strangers Liang Shan and Xia Qujie, his inner hoodlum spirit was provoked, and he thrust out his neck and bellowed defiantly.
Hearing this, Liang Shan knitted his brows, and layers of spiritual energy rippled across the space like water waves, instantly sealing off the entire area. In the blink of an eye, a vacuum-like space was formed around the door, proving far more effective than the finest soundproofing equipment.
Fengjidong had just been whining about how miserable he was, but as he went on, his eyes began to gleam, as if the thought of cozying up to Liang Shan made him envision a life of luxury and hedonism.
The scene fell into a profound silence, save for the lingering, ethereal melody of the zither. Those who heard it felt relaxed, joyous, or moved to tears.
Hatred burned in Guo Chuanda's eyes. He had never imagined the Zhang family could be so ruthless as to directly hire someone to harm his father.
Seeing the fat man make a move, the others swarmed forward, grabbing ladles, spatulas, water scoops, and all sorts of chaotic weapons, raining blows down upon the young master.
Watching this lecherous fellow, Jingjing rolled her eyes continuously, wishing she could capture him and roast him over a fire just to taste what the flesh of a Five Elements Celestial Demon was like.
