Chapter 45

Usually, in order to prove the incompetence of their predecessors, the rules of officialdom dictate that anything left behind by the previous officeholder must be overturned, regardless of whether it was right or wrong.

Thinking of this, Song Ya made a decision that would later make her blush whenever she recalled it. “Teacher Ye, I want to go to Holland with you as well.” As soon as the words left her lips, she realized how impulsive she had been; her face flushed crimson.

When Lin Zhiqin knocked on Gu Zhao’s door, she looked at his delicate face and suddenly felt powerless. Yet, things turned out differently than she had expected. Gu Zhao had no intention of pursuing the matter; their conversation was casual and unconcerned.

Li Feng’s hand slammed heavily onto the ground. The burly man slowly withdrew his foot from Li Feng’s hand. Just as Li Feng’s hand reached under the brute’s crotch, the man lifted his leg high and stomped down on Li Feng’s hand.

Indeed, the decision was made, and Hua Mulan felt a little dejected. She had promised Old Fatty yesterday with such certainty, and now she was contradicting herself. As the ancients said: “If you break your promise to a man, how can you rule the world?”

He saw something fall out—it looked like a card. Su You was curious; he remembered there was nothing in his pocket, so how could something suddenly drop out for no reason?

Li Xiaotian placed the Thunder Punishment on his chest, merging it with the ancient Thunder Robe. Eventually, the sphere of lightning settled at Li Xiaotian’s chest. Suddenly, the giant lightning ball protruded forward, forming a cylindrical shape like a cannon, using the power of the ancient Thunder Cannon as ammunition, and began firing in the direction of Pig Nine Commandments.

In the sleeping quarters of the temple, Hermes encountered Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty. At that moment, Aphrodite wore a semi-transparent silk nightgown, her entire body radiating an alluring glow, making Hermes long to tear away her scant clothing with his own hands.

The speaker from the Immortal Worship sect was a man with triangular eyes, whose strength was nearly equal to Hua Xiongfeng’s, both at the peak of the Breaking Shackles realm. The other four possessed early Breaking Shackles strength. Although these two factions had fewer numbers than all previous forces, they were the strongest.

Boom—a white beam of light instantly struck Zhang Yan. Amidst a massive explosion, Zhang Yan disappeared without a trace.

Luo Jiayue was strongly opposed to this and sternly rejected Qing Cang. However, Qing Cang would not let it go so easily; he directly set a date for taking a concubine and ordered his son Xi Hu to bring Luo Jiayue into the household.

Their grave expressions were not because of Bao Tianci, but because of the complex web of social ties behind him...

They were cultivators; their bodies far sturdier than ordinary people. Now that the pregnancies were showing, it should be safe.

Not only outsiders, but even his trusted subordinates and family members were stunned, standing rooted to the spot, staring in astonishment at their boss, as if he had been struck immobilized.

Li Heng was an expert with guns; none of them were his match. What foolproof method could they possibly have?

The man called An Chen nodded slightly, his hand reaching for his gun, his gaze unwavering as he stared forward.

A single stone stirred waves, and shock, worry, and skepticism surged from all directions. The soldiers sent by Fang Xiujie were already trembling in fear.

“The Immortal Flower is a poisonous blossom that enhances bodily functions. Earlier, in the Lost Desert...” Ye Jiujiu briefly recounted everything to Yi Chenchen: Kikuchi Chio, the laboratory outside Kyoto, all of it.

What message was Jing Pei trying to convey with her actions? Yet, Xiao Xiao nodded in approval at her words. Deeply captivated by Mo Shaohang’s charisma, she suddenly realized that none of the boys around her could compare.

Her heart felt as if it had fallen into an icy pit. Ye Qiyu bit her lip—had Hao An already known the truth all along?

Dongfeng’s gaze drifted from above and landed nonchalantly on her. “You can eat whichever you like, but don’t overdo it. Dinner’s coming soon; snacks can’t replace a proper meal.” Yuanbao nodded, tore open the wrapper with a rustle, and shoved a handful into her mouth.

They searched for a long time, nearly circling the banyan grove, but found no trace of the sacrificial pit or the divine pathway. It seemed Old Yang had indeed deceived me, or his memory was faulty. So we roughly determined the center of the grove and decided to look directly for the tree hollow.

“Of course, ordinary people can’t enter the palace, but I’m different. Look, what’s this? With it, I should be able to get in, right?” Yang Liuer took out the golden token bestowed by Yin Zhongjie.

However, all around, more snakes were drawn by the faint scent.

“Brother, just say what you need to. I can’t stay out too late.” Shrimp looked anxious, a hint of panic in his eyes, one hand in his trouser pocket, gripping a knife inside.

“To Keshan Village, right? You can’t go that way. See? Take that road over there,” said the bald man.

Now that he was willing to teach her, it meant she might finally have a chance to defeat the monster before her.

Fianna’s forehead throbbed with veins, and if not for Grevas dragging her away, she would have exploded on the spot. That bastard was too arrogant.

A mighty roar erupted, and more than ten giant bears charged out from behind, rushing toward the three members of the Phantom.

Today, Lu Xiaoge bought a third of the clothes in the shop. The sales matched three days’ total earnings. Now that everything was out in the open, Yang Liuer simply closed the shop, went back to the Western Garden to gather her belongings, and moved in.

Entering the entertainment industry too early and moving too quickly gave Yu Feihong a most unusual personality.

“My hometown is called ‘Jiaoluo Bay.’ Now it has indeed been occupied by humans, within the gates of Shenzhou,” Shen Ci spoke calmly.

If all the ability users in the World Security Bureau advanced to the second tier, the safety of Sky Star would be even more assured. That is the fundamental duty of the Bureau. There are no Hydra-like organizations in this world, nor any CP group that has been locked in a love-hate rivalry with the Bureau.
