Chapter 54

The three black dragons exchanged glances and ultimately decided not to muddy this treacherous waters. Although they had no idea why Nefarian had yet to show his face, a terrible foreboding already lingered in their hearts.

However, as ten days passed, everyone accepted the reality that Chu Feng no longer had any hope of survival.

After all, overlord Pokémon were invariably the mightiest beings within a given region. Their sheer size and power far surpassed their peers, and they excelled at commanding other wild Pokémon to fight in a coordinated alliance.

Damn it! Which of the upper-crust figures in Hong Kong doesn't know the truth? Your malicious acquisition of thirty-two Hong Kong-funded enterprises is simply meant to kill the chicken to scare the monkey and sabotage 'Plan B'.

A smile also appeared on Charlemagne's face. Although Quel'Thalas's magitech machinery system had no use for petroleum, the Draenei possessed profound research into this resource.

Hardly anyone was like Ruvik, constantly reminding himself every single second that there were crafty commoners plotting to harm him.

Reyes lowered his arm, and the bullet-firing bracket automatically retracted into his arm compartment. This single round did not even trigger an explosion, because it was not a Fiery Iris at all. Rather, it was merely an oversized heavy round loaded with composite mercury. The yield of the Fiery Iris was not high, and he saw no need to waste it on an unnecessary person.

This stealth device was not actually about materials or energy, but rather a hexagonal columnar structure with edges about five centimeters long. The device was surrounded by artificial crystal stones, carved with various formation patterns and talismans. Its core "stealth channel" was constructed from special optical crystal glass array substrates.

Their body hair was long, coarse, and fluffy, featuring well-developed, nearly black manes extending from the back of their necks to their rumps. Blocked here by Hanako Maeda's four Pokémon, the slightly larger Mightyena grew agitated, its mane bristling high as if its body had suddenly expanded.

"I understand." A flash of sharp insight swept through Mo Yishen's dark, profound gaze, vanishing instantly.

It must be said that Dong Zhuo's personality was truly capable of moving people. Although it had not yet reached the point where people would fall to the ground and pledge allegiance, the casual peace he exuded was all the more capable of touching people's hearts. Tian Feng was precisely in that state at this moment.

Anger opened the insulated lunch box, the rich aroma of the porridge wafting out. Stirring it with a spoon, she handed the bowl to Yanyou.

Suddenly, a loud crash echoed between the sea vessel and the demon dragon. The iron chains, unable to bear the strain, snapped right down the middle from the center. Operating at full throttle, the sea vessel was unable to check its momentum and rebounded backward by several zhang, crashing directly into the Tang Clan's ancestral mausoleum, wedging itself squarely and precisely into the entrance of the tomb tunnel.

Only then did Du Tie realize that although the giant scorpion's pincers had caused a searing pain in his legs moments ago, he had not actually suffered any injuries; he had simply been terrified out of his wits. However, this only made Du Tie even more resentful, prompting him to desperately drain the giant scorpion's internal energy with redoubled fury.

With a hum, the imperial court plunged into chaos once more. Over a hundred mouths spoke at the same time, leaving Dong Zhuo, surrounded by court officials, dizzy with a pounding headache.

"Wow, that's wonderful! I'll stay at your place these next few days, and you'd better treat me to all sorts of delicious food and drinks," Nie Qing declared this matter as if it were only natural, once again leaving Chen Yu's mouth agape and speechless for a long time, bringing an even better user experience.

She sat on the stone steps with lowered brows, her dark pupils glistening as if stained with water, rippling with charm and shining brilliantly.

"Everyone, use the Weight-Dropping Technique to bear down on the boat!" Xie Bangui roared, taking the lead in channeling his internal energy to weigh down the stern of the vessel, and the secret guards pressed onto the stern one after another. In just an instant, the weight of the sea vessel multiplied several times over. Not only was it not flung away, but it instead dragged the airborne demon dragon down into the water.

When Qin Yichen arrived at the office, he briefly outlined the work tasks for the next few days and incidentally instructed them to change the interior design style of the office. Previously, everything had basically been remodeled according to Qin Zhenli's demands—styling it in gleaming gold as if terrified that others might not know the Qin family was wealthy—which looked utterly vexing.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi felt a great shock. If this Gale Beast were truly summoning the surrounding beasts, wouldn't he end up being besieged by a swarm?

"Bang!" Struck in the chest by Wang Nanbei once more, Zhibai staggered back several meters before spitting out a large mouthful of fresh blood. Gazing at the massive pool of blood on the ground, Zhibai's pale face was filled with boundless, violent fury.

Lichun nodded, only realizing afterward how inappropriate her laughter had just been. Such behavior might have been acceptable in front of Wei Xueying, but in front of Chu Ling, it was an act of gross disrespect. Fortunately, Chu Ling did not mind the laughter.

Wang Nanbei earnestly reviewed the events of the past few days. All in all, the handling of these matters had indeed been somewhat flawed. Yet, even if he were given the chance to choose all over again, Wang Nanbei believed he would still make the exact same choices.

Seeing him reminded me once more of Ji Liunian's mother. Regardless of whether those events were calculated by Ji Liunian, it was indeed the Qiao family that had taken his mother under their protection.

Meanwhile, Ao Tian, who was behind him, was blown backward by a violent wave of aura before he could even draw close. Fortunately, the fire coral was already in his hand, and relying on the levitational power of the fire coral, he managed to avoid being knocked flat to the ground, steadily holding his position in mid-air after being blown back several hundred meters.

Since there was a ready physician in the private dining room, Fan Shaochi carried Siyu inside and hurriedly called Chi Shaoqiu over to examine her.

In the blink of an eye, the two collided in mid-air. The charging force of the Cloud-Hunting Leopard was not weak, but Lin Yi of the present was no longer who he used to be, and the movements of his hands flowed as smoothly as moving clouds and flowing water.

"Tomorrow." Duanmu Qing gazed at Wei Xueying with intoxicated eyes for a long time, then smiled: "No more talk for now, I'll be leaving first. Get some good rest, we depart early tomorrow morning." With that, he strode away grandly.
