Chapter 74: Reminiscing About the Years as a Kept Man
Gu Shen-shen’s face was cold, her chilling gaze never leaving Jiang Su-su for a single moment. Jiang Su-su believed she was exploiting the sympathy people felt for the weak, making it less likely for Gu Shen-shen to act rashly in front of a crowd.
Suddenly—smack!—the sharp slap caught everyone off guard, and the onlookers gasped in shock. Gu Shen-shen’s blow was fierce and Jiang Su-su...
The sixth-generation Pangu computer, in terms of overall hardware, was actually not much different from the fifth generation. Graphics card, memory, hard drive—all the relevant hardware configurations were nearly identical.
Meanwhile, the warriors kneeling on the ground, their bodies still bleeding, felt icy numbness in their hands and feet, trembling inwardly with fear.
When Chili Sprite heard mention of the Demon Lord Diablo, she was shocked. After all, among those present, only I had ever encountered the Demon Lord Diablo, and he was indeed formidable.
In his opinion, Elder Chou Zhang’s question made no sense at all. Qi Yun had already relinquished the position of leader and handed over the legacy dragon bones. He should simply let Qi Yun leave rather than provoke him further. Though he didn’t know Qi Yun had reached the Divine Transformation stage, Qi Yun’s original strength was already impressive.
“Uncle Smith, you’ve come at just the right time. I haven’t had a chance to thank you for your help the other day,” Edward said gratefully.
“We don’t know! We only know there’s such an alliance, but the details are unclear.” Ling Ruoyan and Fei Lieyang both shook their heads, indicating their ignorance of the situation.
Edward, hearing the name Elizabeth, rose on tiptoe and examined closely. From the back, it was indeed Elizabeth.
At some point, more than a dozen men dressed in black had appeared around the intersection. Each held a powerful AK-47, all sights trained on his head. If anything went amiss, he’d be riddled with bullets in an instant.
For the coach who had been waiting, who was actually made up of more than a hundred guards, Edward displayed the bearing of a true king.
When Wang Chuang and the others arrived, they witnessed this scene. Their expressions grew strange. Though Di Wei’s strength wasn’t the strongest in the Di family, he was at least a mid-stage Foundation Establishment expert—and yet he was slapped so casually.
“Ugh...” At that moment, the Marchioness suddenly began to move. She made strange noises, her head lolling to the side, saliva and spittle flying. Seeing this, Lin Xi immediately gagged.
Terraced fields stretched up from the foot of the mountain, endless and lush with green wheat. Many sturdy, muscular men worked with hoes, their broad backs glistening. Oxen plodded leisurely through the fields, seeming to enjoy the tranquil life.
“Ye Puhua,” Yang Shireng spat the name through clenched teeth, then swept out of the private room like a whirlwind. He needed to tidy himself up and keep an eye on the Cloud Tower, wary that Ye might cause trouble. After all, she was Leyun’s own sister; if anything happened at his Cloud Tower, he’d be responsible.
Fu Zijun arrived at the Leng family’s villa, peering through the wall. He saw only a few servants busy in the garden—was Yingying not home yet?
Boom! A tremendous roar echoed in everyone’s ears, as if meteors had collided in the sky, shaking them to the point of nearly fainting.
“Wait a bit longer, just a little longer,” Zhang Qingtin said, though his lips trembled nervously. His hunched, unrested eyes never blinked, glued to the window, unwilling to miss any possible figure.
Wufu took the shopping list and hurried out. Lin Xi invited the three ladies, including Madam Xu, to rest in the flower hall, and called for You Hongduan to bring some snacks, fruit, and tea.
