Volume 1, Chapter 55: This is All Money

"Sister, group up with your sister-in-law. I've never seen such a shameless person in all my life. It's only been a few days, and they've already forgotten everything. There really are all kinds of people in this world!"

"You're talking nonsense! Even our Rendu has encountered such irresistible moments. Don't tell me you don't know," Xu Xianjing retorted unhappily.

The rioters were busy collecting weapons and armor to arm themselves, while Cui Qigao led some men to climb the wall for a lookout. Apart from the bright lights illuminating Black Mountain Fortress, the surroundings remained pitch black. Where on earth was there any trace of Khitan cavalry?

What giant heart? What humanoid monster? Everything was an illusion. The true foundation was this drop of dark gold blood. Suddenly, Zhang Quan had an urgent desire: to get his hands on that blood. This urge sprouted from the depths of his heart, continuously taking root and growing.

After a brief commotion, the initial, faint sparks of social disorder vanished even more rapidly than they had appeared. Some factions that had just been restless and eager to make a move, seeing that the situation was turning against them, hastily shrank back into obscurity.

Just as she finished speaking, she snapped back to her senses and grew intensely shy, silently asking herself what had happened to her. Wasn't this just the way lovers acted when they flirted? How could she have blurted out such words without thinking?

In truth, after finishing his previous attack, the tycoon suddenly remembered one crucial thing: the Dragon Crystal Cannon. If he lost that item, the tycoon would cry his eyes out and never be able to replace it. Therefore, he immediately rushed back to search for the spot where he had driven the Dragon Crystal Cannon deep into the ground.

The real threat lay in this patch of shadows on the ground, or perhaps this patch of shadow was the Apostle's true body. Using the sphere in the air as bait to lure enemies into approaching and attacking, and then launching a sneak attack with the shadow—this... was this Apostle's method of attack.

Reality was different now; Stone Mountain Gully was no longer an ordinary farming village. There was a massive treasure here—the ecological fish farming base. More importantly, this place had also produced a major celebrity.

It is worth mentioning that Xie Yue's Suiyue officially stepped into the Great Orient. With the assistance of four hundred intermediate elites from the bandit group, she formally established the Suiyue Territory, covering a domain of fifteen miles. Furthermore, Suiyue officially formed a mutual defense alliance with the Jianghu Bandit Group, and this news swept through the Great Orient almost instantly.

Upon returning home, the dough in the basin had already dried out. He Tiantian wanted to knead a fresh batch, but He Liyang stopped her, telling his mother that he had eaten his fill in Yanzhou and was not hungry at all right now. There was just one question he wanted to ask her.

Although Lu Man held a certain degree of fondness for the brawny man, she had not been in contact with Carlos for so long and had no idea of his current situation. Out of caution, Lu Man did not mention the Tortoli region, and they arranged to meet in Xiangha City.

After internal discussions and a decision by the Knights of the Blood Oath, Heathcliff, in his capacity as the guild leader of the Knights of the Blood Oath, initiated discussions regarding this idea with the leaders of the major guilds. In the end, by piecing things together, they managed to assemble a team consisting of members with high individual levels and high-level enemy-tracking skills, and began advancing rapidly toward the upper floors.

Otherwise, if these two ghosts were allowed to enter the stone chamber and seize Lin Qishuang's soul, the consequences would be too ghastly to contemplate.

Tier 0 demon hunters were ordinary demon hunters. Tier 1 demon hunters could already become cadres in county and municipal branch offices, serving as deputy directors or directors. Tier 2 demon hunters were exceptionally powerful, capable of becoming senior officials and the most elite demon hunters within the Monster Hunting Bureaus of major provinces.

To her surprise, Lu Shixiu did not speak at all. Instead, she silently pondered the bizarre affair her family had encountered.

It was still at least two kilometers away from that wall, but the fatty gently patted Lu Man's shoulder and nodded at him, signaling him to get down.
