Chapter 43

Chen Jinian emphasized that the CEO must be present because their current cooperation is with a major family-owned business based in France. The other party is immensely wealthy, notoriously difficult to please, and particularly critical of Chinese merchants. While Supreme's comprehensive strength goes without saying, sincerity is naturally indispensable for their very first collaboration.

—Thinking one's own standards were decent, only to be completely crushed by a much younger collaborator; such a situation feels truly subtle.

Wanwan: Actually, I really wanted to keep a low profile since heroes shouldn't brag about past glories, but considering my man is a detective, I'm terribly sorry.

The working principle of this device is quite professional in detail, but just like before, we can use an analogy: they absorb sand from other different, unimportant universes to ensure the stability of our side.

Since Wang Feng had specifically reminded everyone just now that during the process of massaging and exorcising evil from the Chinese cabbage, no one was allowed to utter a sound without his permission, the surrounding villagers all held their breath. The area was so quiet that even the drop of a needle could be heard.

Lu Yichen's urge to use the restroom vanished completely. He sat astride his chair and began pounding on the keyboard, but try as he might, the words on the screen stubbornly remained. Moreover, the harder he tried to rescue the situation, the more dazzlingly colorful the font colors became.

Of course, aside from these serious uses, ever since Qin Liangyu made the telescope, Ding Baiying and the others have treated it as their favorite toy.

After receiving a confirmation call from Zhao Siyuan, Shi Lingyan curved the corners of his lips, expressed his thanks, and hung up.

Breaking through fate, taking control of oneself, returning to the past—the long-standing desire to achieve deification once again.

This is a genuine ancient castle, which suits Zhou Nan's current identity very well. Although the main residence on Jonas Farm is not bad either, it is at most the scale of a country vacation villa and completely incomparable to this luxurious estate.

Led by Gu Yun, the group encountered almost no terrifying fierce beasts. The few they did run into were solitary beasts, and upon encountering a group of disciples at the late stage of Qi Mastery, they could only resign themselves to being slaughtered.

However, Qu Liangcai could barely protect himself now, so Qi Yan had to think of other ways for her own matters.

As soon as the four of them entered the room, the heavy door was closed shut. However, it was not as gloomy as it appeared from the outside; the moment the door clicked completely shut, candle after candle was lit all around, instantly illuminating the entire room with a brilliant glow.

The greatest advantage in the application of nuclear weapons in this lifetime lies in the ability to precisely drop nuclear bombs directly onto the soul-level figures of the true undead army, such as the Big Three, rather than having to use nuclear weapons purely for the sake of reducing the undead numbers as was done in the past.

The moment I closed the door and got into bed, Liu Qing, who was sitting at the head of the bed, suddenly threw her arms around me, scaring me into a shriek. Liu Qing was alarmed and hurriedly covered my mouth, shushing me.

Inside was indeed a scene straight out of hell. The corpses laid out on the ground were almost none of them intact: some were missing heads, some lacked hands or feet, others had half their bodies bitten off, and some were gnawed down to nothing but bloody skeletons.

Father Li wore a V-neck knit sweater identical to Gao Yuliang's, carried a water cup identical to Li Dakang's, and his gait and posture both carried the stern air of officialdom, making him look thoroughly imposing.

While wounding one of them, Ali also sustained a minor injury, a bullet grazing his left arm.

In this battle, Zhan Tianyou's classmates—four of the first batch of young students sent abroad by China to study in America—were killed in action. Three of them had graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and were serving in the Fujian Fleet.

The kings of ancient Chinese chess were decided through grueling, real-combat trials of strength, whereas the kings of ancient Japanese chess were not; some merely held empty reputations.

It wasn't just firearms; there were also many archers. Mounted archery is no easy task, yet firing an arrow from horseback alone is not particularly difficult.

That pit had truly turned into flat ground. I stamped hard with my foot, and the earth beneath me felt solid and firm, showing not the slightest trace of a crack.

During a few subsequent polite exchanges, Yun Zhen learned that the adjacent courtyard had been neglected for many years until a few months ago when Cui Hao bought its land deed, integrating the front and back yards into one. The area was now basically double its previous size.

I stared at him in shock from behind my veil, and he looked back at me with joy in his eyes. His sense of smell was also this acute; it seemed my secret osmanthus scented ointment was no longer a secret and had already become a common body fragrance.

Looking leisurely at the Queen Mother of the West, the White Emperor's warning sounded like a joke, yet it was delivered with such weight that no one dared to overstep even half a step.

Duan Lang's expression showed joy, but inwardly he felt a chill. From this imperial edict, Duan Lang acutely sensed that Emperor Yuning was beginning to distrust them. Or rather, this old fox was already laying out a strategy targeting their city of Lidu.

The White Emperor's expression finally turned serious as he stepped down heavily onto the ground, causing a slight distortion in the sword qi unleashed by Xiao Tianxiao.

Out of four words, he had uttered three, but the tone with which he spoke the remaining one was impossible to define at this moment.

"What kind of person? Tell me about it, I might as well listen. I really don't know what kind of matter you could possibly help me with, and I don't believe your words either," Lin Ran said coldly.

Wei Donglin looked at the young man before him, having no impression of him whatsoever. Still, seeing his refined and clear demeanor, he felt a certain appreciation.

Much like how Chen Fan could choose to join the recruitment activities of the Potion Club in order to achieve his goal of becoming a member.

Lu Yan was still in a fit of anger and had zero desire to pay attention to this universe-invincibly-hateful jerk right in front of her.

However, before Night Yunxi could even spend her 1.5 billion, her second uncle, Ye Junlai, and third uncle, Ye Junru, eagerly came forward to deliver money to Night Yunxi themselves.

Her excessive calmness and lack of emotional fluctuation proved that the matter she wanted to discuss might not be something he was willing to hear.

Even so, Team Leader Zeng would not back down. While the opponent might hold an advantage in hard strength, his cat-folk berserker was no pushover either. In a berserk state, he had the capital to fight even if his opponent was the person right before him.

Therefore, encountering a similar situation where someone suddenly calls out the name of your disguised identity, it might still take a second or two to react before you can make a "normal" response.
