Volume 1: Main Text - Chapter 57: Fortunately Leaving Early

"That's easy! Just come along. My dad's at the shop, it'll be fine." Chuchu waved her hand dismissively and marched right over.

Shu Qian had already said that the Poison King was far more domineering than any other venom. She had never witnessed it before, and her understanding of it came solely from the ancient texts left by her master, so she wasn't entirely certain of success.

Although the two were friends, and Zhou Hai had instructed him to look after them as much as possible, Chuchu always felt a lingering sense of owing others a favor.

"Pay a visit to Wu Baishun's mansion tonight. You know what to do, right?" Su Jin glanced at him. With Gu Xuanjin's status, as long as he revealed his identity and protected Huiniang, Wu Baishun wouldn't dare to do anything to her.

However, that was impossible because the surveillance cameras in the modeling department were turned off. A video leak incident had occurred there previously, so the cameras had been deactivated.

A wheel of orange-red sunlight rose from the horizon, casting a rosy glow over the mist-shrouded earth. The winter, which had been gloomy and cold for days, finally brightened up considerably. Bathed in the radiant light, the two hummed a tune as they walked down the mountain.

Just as Chen Feng was sinking into despair, the door suddenly pushed open, and a figure abruptly appeared in the doorway.

If only one person said so, it would be fine, but all the demon clans were saying the same thing, and soon other factions began to believe it as well. A rumor started circulating across S City: a supreme expert disguised as a pig to eat the tiger had arrived in S City—someone extremely ferocious whom nobody should dare to provoke.

Southeast Asian cuisine was the primary highlight she had been looking forward to on this trip; missing it would simply be too much of a pity.

"No matter how much you beg me, it's useless." Wu Xue looked at him coldly, without a shred of sympathy in her eyes.

Kong Ling mustered the last of his magic energy to fly on his sword to the stone platform ahead. The moment his feet touched the stone, a numbing sensation coursed through his body, and he collapsed onto the ground. The Heart-Devouring Sword could no longer stay afloat; it dropped to the ground, turned into a red beam of light, and flew back into Kong Ling's palm.

If even the Nanyang faction cast aside their restraints and joined this encirclement, Jiang Feng felt that Bianliang would feel an increasingly burning sense of urgency.

After the fifth place, scores were too low for the official to publish them, but for Taohua Shi University, a score of fifty was an indelible humiliation.

Brey was right in the middle of a meeting, yet he immediately abandoned the room full of corporate heads and rushed out of the room to answer the call.

Three months later, Pang Juan, entirely focused on attacking the state of Zhao, pulled out all his stops and drove straight to Handan, the capital of Zhao. Without Sun Bin as commander, the Qi army truly had no way to break through the five million defending Wei troops who were strictly on the defensive and refused to step even half a step outside the city gates.

Xiao Yang had once wanted Xie Jiuye to forget everything—not because he feared Xie Jiuye, but because he was afraid that Xie Jiuye might carelessly leak something and allow the Empress to notice any clues.

Those Nine Sons of the Ancestral Dragon likely had their own plans as well. Upon hearing Li Daoxu say that the human race could provide convenience, joy instantly spread across their faces.

Dong Bin was somewhat surprised. Given Gao Kong's standing today, countless investors were likely waving money, hoping Gao Kong would direct their films and television shows. Yet, he never expected that Gao Kong would actually want to secure Lin Yang's television drama.

In truth, this was only natural. To the Heavenly Dao Hongjun, this Primordial World—imbued with Pangu's Dao fruit and his own painstaking efforts—represented the ultimate divine medicine in the entire chaos, the one most likely to help him attain the supreme Dao fruit.

The sound of arrowheads piercing flesh rang out, and those plague-eradication agents were then hung in mid-air like dried salted fish.

He looked at the screen, only to find that Sohu's homepage had popped up a massive advertisement. It was New Year's, yet President Zhang was bare-chested, appearing on the computer screen in a rather rock-and-roll style persona.

If it were physical trauma, it could be cured with rare worldly treasures and top-tier medicinal pills.

Even Han Shuangxue's brows were tightly furrowed. Such heaven-defying regenerative capabilities were likely beyond what ordinary exotic beasts could match.

She looked at Liang Sijia, who was smiling brightly beside her, recalling the flirtatious manner she had put on in front of Wang Luo that afternoon, along with her shameless actions, and found the other woman exceptionally grating.

At this moment, the scene within the crystal ball shifted to a realm of blazing flames filled with magma everywhere. Heavenly Demon Drifting beckoned, and a black shadow instantly flashed before him.

Striving to calm his racing mind, Yifeng forced himself to concentrate on the immediate problem: how to break through the Mountain-Guarding Sword Formation of Mount Shu.

He felt a deep sense of relief in his heart. Ultimately, a burden had been lifted, and he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Jiang Qingyan, by this point, was even busier, frantically picking up the shattered pieces of purple crystal and replacing them. Fortunately, nearly half of the demon soldiers were already dead, but her pressure had not lessened at all.

"I've been fired by the company's board of directors!" Fei Liangyan's words almost made Liu Lingshan's jaw drop.

Chen Yi let out a soft exclamation. The area near the Blood Fiend Stone was exceptionally cold, though that was to be expected; whenever demons lurked, the ambient temperature would instantly plummet, even causing one's breath to frost. If not for the Demon Emperor being sealed, Chen Yi figured he would have frozen to death on the spot.
