Volume One, Chapter 75: He Really Went Through With It
Bo Xingzhou’s words landed like a blazing brand, instantly flushing Fu Yuting’s cheeks and sending her heart racing. The undisguised aggression and determination in his eyes made the blood rush to her head.
Yet, to Qu Xiuyun’s ears, the answer was unacceptable. What she wanted to hear was a single word—“Yes!” But the phrase “if there’s an opportunity” hinted at the possibility of not seeking revenge.
Xiao Qingshan was momentarily stunned; she hadn’t expected this, but upon reflection, it did seem serious. If two fronts erupted into conflict, they would surely suffer losses. It was better to set this aside for now and focus on pushing back the provincial army.
Thus, the only option was to purchase a new aircraft—one capable of cruising at ten times the speed of sound and even reaching the edge of space. Although unsuitable for long-distance travel, it was more than powerful enough for their needs.
Her reaction was understandable; every time she entered the imperial bedchamber, she seemed to exit through this secret passage, never once having held a proper conversation within these walls.
After failing in the first match, Black Panther had hoped to regain his footing in game two through his own playstyle.
Because Flash had no assist information from teammates, all control of Green Passage now rested with s1mple.
At this moment, everyone on the wall was terrified. They had heard rumors of the enemy’s formidable, long-range siege-grade crossbows.
With a furious roar, the youth swung his great axe, slicing through the air. A fierce wind erupted, and a piercing whistle split the sky.
Even someone as spiteful as the Empress Dowager, upon seeing her own son suffering so miserably, would utter a cry of anguish.
Unfortunately, Jackson’s health had been failing of late. He felt death approaching and realized he was no longer young. He could not compete with Sony Music, backed as they were by the enormous Sony Corporation.
Stepping outside, a gale swept across the sky as a giant eagle soared overhead. Suglas looked up sharply. The door swung wide, and the dean emerged as well, gazing into the heavens.
Curious netizens began checking the major gold shops. That evening, an anonymous employee released surveillance footage showing that Yang Xiuping had indeed visited a gold shop and sold a large quantity of gold jewelry.
Unable to break free, she began to punch and kick. “If you keep this up, I’ll…I’ll…I’ll bite you!” She actually bit a guard on the shoulder. When she looked up, her eyes were brimming with tears. The crowd was left dumbfounded—was this really the legendary master who had stymied thirteen grand magi and sword saints?
Not far away was the elevated subway track. No trains were passing now, and the area was very quiet. Only the occasional passerby or vehicle drew her attention back to reality.
“It’s already been delivered. My master asked me to thank Your Highness for relieving our urgent need,” Wang Huabin said with a respectful bow.
“Yes, yes, that’s right. He’s the head of the Huo Corporation—the real boss. I’m just an errand runner. Please don’t make things difficult for me,” Zhang Manlin pleaded pitifully.
“Thinking up more mischief?” Noticing the look on his face, Luo Linlin laughed as well and offered her thigh as his pillow, acting as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Luo Qi was left speechless; this girl was truly devious. She had just wrangled a blank check—she could fill in any amount she wanted in the future.
Perhaps this was the only time Liu Sen had ever received thanks from the outside world. Rubus felt it necessary to convey this gratitude to him in a special way.
Lu Ning covered her mouth, having more or less understood what Princess Chang of Xinyang meant. She only promised to intercede with Lu Lin’en on behalf of the Prince’s Manor, but gave no assurance that the Holy Emperor would spare them.
Lu Xi smiled demurely, accepting Gao Yan’s praise without the slightest hesitation. “Thank you, brother, for your kind words. Did you call me here for something?” she asked.
