138. High School Follow-Up
"Xiao Yi..." You Ruo turned around to look for Xiao Yi, but the giant centipede had vanished once again after its attack.
"Senior Sister, you don't need to worry about that cold-faced man. Blessed people have their own natural providence, and he will be fine." Shafu looked at You Ruo with absolute confidence, unsure whether he was comforting her or relying on the divination signs.
Standing over ten meters away, Han Xiao was observing the fellow who had constantly been addressed as Brother Cao.
The attendant understood immediately and raised the wooden tray he had been holding, which displayed several items wrapped in silk.
Speaking as she surged forward, You Ruo swept her sword through the air, unleashing a surging wave of fire that directly cleared a path for her.
For some reason, upon noticing the light beginning to flicker and tremble in intensity, such a thought suddenly flashed through Fang Yan's mind.
With a sweep of the sharp sword, striking downward at an angle, the Black Demon let out a deafening cry—shrill and filled with rage. It twisted its body, its pale-red eyes turning as crimson as blood, while its constantly trembling wings beat frantically as if attempting to crush the person before it into dust.
After all, according to prior expectations, this matter would be discovered sooner or later; the use of the interstellar transport ship merely made the process slightly more discreet.
By the time her injuries had mostly healed, Yang Yuxue abruptly opened her eyes, her gaze dark and fathomless.
"A red card! The referee has actually shown Diego Lopez a red card." Upon identifying the color of the card in Fernandez Borbalan's hand, CCTV sports commentator He Wei could not help letting out a cry of exclamation.
Qu Nanyue laid Lin Zhao down, removed his shoes, outer jacket, and trousers, tucked him in properly under the quilt, and only then prepared to leave.
Before coming, he had indeed harbored some intention of asking Lu Changyao for a favor. However, a glance at Changyao's expression told him immediately that this trip had been in vain.
The school suddenly introduced such a novel activity; while exciting, it also gave some people food for thought, among them Xiao Zhi and Bei Changxi. Xiao Zhi simply felt that the head teacher's attitude during class today was very strange, as if he had deliberately called Ji Jiuer and Bei Changxi away.
The flags forming the array had already suffered damage, and the celestial energy driving the array had been mostly depleted.
The Wolf-Fang Mercenary Corps had no Great Dou Shi, and only a single Dou Shi—merely a Two-Star Dou Shi at that. A single Tier 3 Magical Beast was enough to wipe them out entirely.
He stepped toward the staircase, and after taking only a few steps, a pair of snow-white stockings winding up the spiral staircase came into view.
"Oh, Qing'er, don't you trust my character? Those wild men outside can't even compare to a single finger of yours; I would certainly never mess around behind your back, so stop letting your imagination run wild." Looking at the graceful figure of his beloved under her thin shirt, Xiao Ling embraced her waist with itching hands, his fingers moving restlessly.
After waiting for a long time without a single person speaking, eventually, a king who shared a close friendship with the queen, seeing her extreme embarrassment, slowly broke the silence.
Compared to the guards outside, the inner guards were greater in number and possessed higher cultivation levels, including no shortage of Dou Ling and Dou Wang.
"I said, the gloves are one silver coin per pair. Do you want both pairs?" Jiang Nuan turned her head toward her and asked with a smile.
Her slender body stood right in front of Lan Shaofeng, yet her gaze toward him was as if looking at a total stranger.
"What is the situation now? Where have they reached?" After a long while, Yalei Kunai finally spoke to Chu Yunxiao.
He could scold her for being foolish or stupid, or punish her severely, but he was forbidden from using such insulting language.
Crystal stared blankly at him. Suddenly, he spoke, and the moment he opened his mouth, Crystal was so shocked she almost fainted.
Reporters from all sides bombarded him with questions, forcing Luo Zhiyuan to patiently answer them. Most of the inquiries revolved around his kidnapping incident, but Luo Zhiyuan deflected everything smoothly, tossing the ball back to the police department and repeatedly stating that the police were still investigating and he had nothing further to say.
For the True Dragon Clan to produce offspring, they had to unite with a partner possessing an exceptionally powerful physique. The True Dragon Physique could be said to be a rare and formidable constitution in this world; finding a suitable match was immensely difficult. It was precisely because of this that the True Dragon Clan had nearly faced extinction.
"Young Master Luo, it's truly too late to find mutton-shabu now. How about I treat you another time?" Deputy Director Zhao's attitude underwent a 180-degree shift. In this world, offending a formidable expert was hardly a profitable venture, and Luo Qiang was, after all, the head of the third-largest underworld force in Hong Kong.
Based on Tang Xiaolan's Guangming Trading Company as its foundation, under Luo Zhiyuan's management through capital operations, Cambridge had leaped into a promising enterprise group in less than a year, expanding its assets and scale by far more than several fold.
Beneath the mask was a youthful, jade-like face, now bearing a gentle, faint smile as he looked at her. "Nuan Nuan," he called out very, very softly.
"Alright, let's take them for a stroll around the pool in the Dragon Soul Forest and log off later. It's still early for dinner anyway," Zhang Jian agreed with a nod.
In truth, when Xu Bingyun agreed, Chen Feng was quite surprised. In the past, Xu Bingyun would surely have said, "Where you sleep is none of my concern." At best, she would have added, "There's still a car over there, go sleep in that one."
As the voice fell, the door of the reception room opened again. Everyone looked over to see several young men walking in together.
"The very thing Bailimu worried about back then has come to pass," said the holographic projection of Number One in the conference room.
