Chapter 29

"Xuan and Mo Bai, go help out. We’re going to have a barbecue." Mo Qingxue felt quite miserable about the food of the Fire Phoenix clan, but with Xuan and Mo Bai there, she had nothing to worry about.

Rong Dongjian, in his anxiety, blurted out, "Lord Hao is no longer ignoring Yan'er. If you move back home, he will at least be able to see you there from time to time."

She suddenly lost all desire to engage with him. The depth of her past admiration was now matched by the intensity of her disgust; even a few more words from him felt nauseating to her very core.

Yue Yi was gripped by panic, fearing that if Cang Yan and Sha Luo were to suddenly appear, Mu Siyun would surely die, and as for her, they would likely dispose of her prematurely as well.

After getting out of the car, Leng Che spoke privately with Captain Song for a moment before returning to lead Ning Xia in a certain direction, with Jiang Sheng following behind, carrying their belongings.

Ning Xia did not respond; her thoughts remained fixed on Leng Shuang’s mention of Old Man Li’s birthday and the fact that both Lin Wanrou and Li Minsheng would be in attendance.

She had stayed inside the sedan chair all day. When she finally lifted the curtain again, the sky had already turned dark. Her stomach began to rumble; after all, she hadn't eaten anything all day.

While Xiong Chumo felt a wave of relief, he began to contemplate the next steps for their rescue mission. Although their plan was already in motion, it was far from foolproof. They had only resorted to this desperate measure because there were simply no other options left.

Hearing his question, everyone exchanged glances. Seeing their own reflections in each other's eyes, they all burst into laughter.

Although she hadn't sustained any real injuries, the impact from earlier had been quite severe. Even now, every movement sent a twinge of pain through her back.

It was different from the location where New Hangzhou was situated. That place had been discovered by the local ancestral spirits, much like a natural limestone cave deep within a mountain, with a very limited range.

However, if he were merely the Deputy City Lord of the City of Mist, why would Master Fenn of the Mage Alliance accompany this young man?

Huo Xiangkong said nothing, instead taking out the token Sun Wukong had given him. He activated it using the special method Sun Wukong had taught him. The inactive token had been gray, but once activated, it began to radiate an aura almost identical to that of Sun Wukong himself.

Thinking back on it now, with Ou Yucheng’s intellect, he must have known all along that he and Ling Yue were plotting against him; he had simply been indulging her.

The entire ruin finally succumbed to the unbearable pressure, and the isolated space could no longer hold up against the weight from above. All the parents clutching their children stared with vacant eyes at the dust billowing into the air following the thunderous collapse. Was it really over just like that? Weren't there still people down below?

This regulation was subsequently issued, and it immediately sent shockwaves through the entire art world. Everyone felt a massive reform was imminent. Could a single variety show really have that much power?

Fred merely glanced at Yin Sa, unable to decipher the worry flashing through his eyes. It seemed there was more to the situation than he knew.

The two strolled through the picturesque Purple Bamboo Bay, exchanging idle chatter.

With Xu Bin’s explanation, the leaders temporarily suppressed their inner misgivings, but the seed had been planted: the future of the battlefield would be dominated by high-tech equipment. As for Xu Bin, there was nothing more to be said—he was a national treasure, a precious asset belonging to the country in the truest sense.

Guanyin, Wu Meiniang, and Celestial Master Zhang believed it should be opened only to the Xia Kingdom, while Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Huang Xin argued it should be open to the entire Pangu Heaven to claim the moral high ground. Both sides held their ground, giving Huo Xiangkong a splitting headache.

Gou Fugui had been terrified to his core upon hearing of the disaster yesterday. His construction company held the bid for this section of the national highway. Of course, with his limited stature, he couldn't have landed such a project on his own; he was merely a contractor with a powerful boss above him.

In the VIP lounge of the airport, Lin Ruo sat with headphones in, her gaze melancholic as she stared at the night sky outside the window. One could only wonder what was passing through those clear, water-like eyes.

The experts from Zhuiyun City and the two demon kings attacked the barrier together, and in an instant, a massive hole was torn through it. "We did it! This happiness came so suddenly—how is this possible?" They looked at each other in disbelief, but without a moment to spare, they rushed into the barrier.

"Alright, alright, I'll treat you to a big meal later. Don't worry, there won't be many people this time, very few." Seeing Xing Ang scratching his head with such frustrated intensity, Qian Xiao was amused, but given that she had indeed been inconsiderate today, she didn't intend to "pick a fight" with him. After all, she was exhausted herself.

Just as Chen Fei moved, he had silently fired two silver needles into the barrels of the mercenaries' guns, blocking the path of the bullets. Should any of them attempt to fire, they would meet the same self-inflicted fate as the mercenary before them.

The other party had just become pregnant and couldn't work for the time being. If she were willing to enter this line of work, she could go to Hong City during her pregnancy to learn from Zhao Wen, and then open a shop directly in the capital.

Especially since one could see the topographical variations on the map; following the markings, Lu Zhi could almost visualize the specific terrain of the place he was focused on, as if he were standing there himself.

He was just thinking that she might be afraid of being overheard, when the words Jiang Ran spoke next left him stunned on the spot.

Gu Yunzheng stopped upon hearing this and looked at Jiang Ran. The arrangement was sound, but he sensed that Jiang Ran might not necessarily agree.

The Silver Fox’s goal was to provoke Chen Fei. Although he didn't want to let Chen Fei leave, if he were to simply attack him right then and there, it would inevitably leave behind some unsavory rumors. While the Silver Fox didn't care about such things, he intended to use this opportunity to further elevate his reputation in the martial arts world.

Having said this, he waved his hand, and a surge of law-based energy poured from his body, repairing the spatial rift. He then punched through the space on the other side with a similar strike.
