Shadow of the Plague 10

After finishing the main discussion, Zhu Gaoxu gave some further instructions to a few elders. Seeing that it was getting late, Yan Zhenzhi took his group of elders and took his leave. In an instant, the once lively private room was left with only the two brothers, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaochi.

“Come on, you’re the only one claiming success, yet you haven’t held onto your own legacy for decades,” Bai Qi sneered.

Once again, I am grateful for the opportunity to share stories from real life. Thanks to my editor—your encouragement fills me with confidence.

In a sour mood, Feng Zhibai snapped at Ma Zhang, then gracefully ran his hand through his slightly tousled hair.

Pei Yunyan was unaware of Zhao and Jin’s current thoughts and had no mind to consider anything else.

“The Zhao family doesn’t have people like you,” Zhao Linran retorted before promptly announcing the end of the meeting and leaving first.

Yun Wanyan’s voice grew colder, as if the one seeking revenge wasn’t Lan Nianhe but herself.

Yet, it was difficult to voice other suspicions openly since many had witnessed Dai Shi’s bone-reading and fortune-telling skills that evening.

Su Chen paid no heed to the landlord’s odd behavior; such abnormality surely indicated something behind the scenes.

“You see, we have nothing to do with each other, didn’t we just start arguing?” Ai Zhuangxiong hurriedly changed his story.

However, for Chen Yin, who bore the title of the world’s enemy, possessed a life value of 465 points, and still had a bottle of Alpha Life Potion capable of instantly restoring 100 points, the mere hundred or so points of damage were hardly a concern.

Witnessing the situation, Colonel Jefferson decided to revise the plan. He ordered the “Resolute” and another armored cruiser to continue bombarding the fort’s defenders while the other ships assigned to distraction targeted the Shun forces’ vessels that were preparing to light fires and weigh anchor.

Bao Feiyang felt an emptiness inside and lacked the courage to follow Shang Xiaohong into the city government compound. Instead, he walked along the roadside to a nearby card phone booth, inserted a magnetic card, and dialed Meng Shuang’s room.

That man was like a persistent fly, neither killable nor shooable, finally provoking a flicker of genuine anger from Li Lin. Faced with the subtle pressure unconsciously emanating from Li Lin, the man finally fell silent.

Yin Ruojun steadied herself. Ha, if the girl liked her money, then let her like it.

Zhu Honglin and Bai Shun were both stunned; none of them could answer a single question. Chu Mingqiu smiled, mounted his bike, and rode off. After a while, Lin Baishun muttered, “What does this have to do with your ancestor's ritual?” Weixing Cai protested, “Exactly! Could it be that he knows?”

Upon arriving at the hospital, Chu Mingqiu did not immediately enter but first surveyed the surroundings. Seeing a jeep parked in the courtyard, his heart sank. He touched the engine, which was still slightly warm.

Yue Xiuxiu recalled Chu Mingqiu’s condition the previous night and felt a deep unease. She approved of training but never anticipated such dangers. Had she known, she would have never agreed.

“I called you because of this matter. Only you can help me. It has nothing to do with strength, my brother.” As he spoke of business, Arthas’s face bore a solemn expression.

Dukao had heard of the Taklamakan incident but, after confirming no abnormal dark information and that both sides were native Earth creatures, merely made a brief note and did not dwell on it.

Due to an unfavorable position relative to Ada, this round still lacked the option to challenge A.

He had prepared to pack up and eat at the shop but was surprised that Uncle Li showed no intention of closing. It was already eleven, yet the open sign still hung outside, and his family hadn’t come to fetch him.

Chu Han was more than just a composition student; they all attended classes at the Aoki Drama Academy. Even composition students took acting classes, though they treated acting as a side pursuit.

Sakurai Jun felt disappointed, cursing the message alert on his phone while synchronously reading the messages with Sakakura Lingyin.

However, Cui Jiu stubbornly refused to reveal the master’s identity, only conveying that the master sought something on Jiang Ning—a talisman capable of unlocking the Shaman clan’s secrets.

The distant waves churned, rain still pouring heavily from the sky. The gloomy, chilling atmosphere instantly engulfed me.

After a series of meticulous measurements, Wang Hou named the gas “Light Gas” and ambitiously planned a flying machine based on it, which ultimately resulted in this airship.

“Senior, haven’t you decided yet? Earlier, Xiong Ma said you wanted to open two private rooms, didn’t he? Isn’t that perfect?”

The anxiety and panic stemmed from the fear of not having found their whereabouts, not knowing where they were or what they were doing, which left the heart uneasy.

She glanced coldly at the Dog Emperor, then swiftly removed her hairpin, outer garment, skirt, shoes, and socks.

“My lord, although everything was done by Chunxiang, she was controlled. Everyone must have heard of the sorcery from West Wu, right? Chunxiang was manipulated by someone skilled in sorcery who entered her body as a phantom, controlling her thoughts and actions,” Tao Zhi explained deliberately.

Although the scene was bizarre, Guo Liuchu’s words were heard clearly by all.

“What causes bile stasis?” This time, Qi Jing’s question was straightforward, so he asked Hu Dongsheng instead of the chief at the table.

The cicada monkey contains amino acids essential and in high demand by the human body, so eating it promotes growth and enhances physical fitness.

Wei Jiashu said calmly, “However, it’s not about sleeping here but taking eternal rest in another world.” — Thinking of Xiuyou still being in the flesh, often sleeping deeply on her original body, the World Tree, Wei Jiashu felt that if she wanted to sleep, she might slumber for many years.
