Chapter 45: The Frightened Donkey and Danger at the Irrigation Canal

Always keeping a close eye on Huaxia, they secured the intelligence for half a million the very moment the data was released.

Seeing Gu Heng holding nothing back in his verbal sparring, these reporters grew a bit more cautious about the questions they prepared to ask next.

This was clearly a flat expanse of land, with not a single heritage bone mountain within a hundred miles. Why had the pressure from the mountain suddenly descended upon this place, striking Su Xiyue and the others with pinpoint precision while leaving him completely unharmed?

His body crashed heavily onto the ground once more, sending a shudder through the writhing mass of flesh beneath him.

Countless members of the younger generation on the drill grounds were consumed with envy. Normally, whichever sect disciple received this honor would have a brilliantly bright future within the sect and would be allocated a corresponding share of inclined resources.

The owner of the lost item confessed that he had been instigated by someone to deliberately frame Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang, and the mastermind was none other than their chief—the chief of Seven Bends.

"Wait, Director Lu, you shouldn't go. If someone sees you, your situation might become a bit awkward. I'll go instead."

Receiving Gu Heng's instructions, Chen Hao did not dare to delay in the slightest. He quickly altered his route and drove toward the nearest luxury shopping plaza. Having roughly guessed what Gu Heng intended to do, he dared not stall his important business for even a second.

The crowd hurled accusations, claiming that Lin Lin had usurped the identity of the true Lin family daughter for over a decade and ought to pay Shen Wenwen nearly a dozen forms of compensation, including mental distress damages.

If she unleashed all her trump cards, she could likely wipe out any demonic tribe members below the mid-Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop.

A somewhat biting wind brushed across Su Xia's face, prompting her to pull the collar of the cloak draped over her shoulders a little higher.

"..." Damn it, with her putting it that way, if she ever decided to hold a grudge against this wolf in the future, it would make her look petty and lacking in stature.

"Then what on earth happened at that time? Was it you who smashed the wine bottle and injured Xing Yitian? Did you want to kill him?" The questioning grew increasingly sharp, making Qianqian's heart flutter with a baseless panic once more, her hands trembling even more violently than before.

Later on, for the sake of the imperial throne, he had no way to be openly and honestly with Han Linlin. To secure the influence of the Su family and win the support of Su Yi, the God of War of Tianlan, he chose Su Xia.

Seeing that the physician's diagnosis was also hopelessly muddled, Tao Qing quickly had Shopkeeper He send the doctor away, ordered the servants to carry Xiao Ran back to her own room, and had someone wipe the blood from his body and change him into fresh clothes.

"I cannot rest. I must learn it within these two weeks. Hua Jing, please help me, won't you help me?" The mere thought that she might never see her older brother again filled her with a grief so profound she wanted to die; thus, even if it cost her life, she had to master this difficult Latin dance.

Those who have never lived here will only ever envy the superficial glamour of the people living in this place.

It was simply that she had been too presumptuous, preconceived notions blinding her; because her medical skills were extraordinarily brilliant, the moment she uttered Luo Feng's name, she naturally thought of Su Xia first.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Lin Yuanlan had already awakened. Seeing her mother return with a grim expression, she asked in confusion.

When questioned about this matter, Iron Pagoda felt a great deal of internal conflict. On one hand, he wanted Xiao Ran to go; on the other, he feared Xiao Ran's sharp brilliance might prove counterproductive if he went. Consequently, his words became hesitant and halting.

Resolutely banishing that surge of sweetness from her heart, she wore a cold and detached expression, showing not a shred of sympathy toward Lu Qisheng.

Dylan looked him over. Indeed, both his appearance and his aura matched the records in the clan's archives to the letter.

Elder Qinghong felt her heart shatter instantly. Pressured by the might of Immortal Venerable Jinhao, she gritted her teeth and slowly raised her hand.

"You think just eating a few bites of biscuits will..." The expression on her face was dark and unreadable, but the implication was clear: Lin Nuannanda was in deep, hopeless trouble this time.

Dahua chimed in with an explanation, noting that in this bizarre space, it was impossible for there to be only a single isolated pillar; there had to be others.

"Yingying, what are your plans for the future? Have you ever thought about going home?" Ye Zhi asked with a smile.

"Dr. Parker, is there something you need?" Dylan asked indifferently. After all, he had just arrived aboard the Seer and had very little interaction with Dr. Parker, so he truly could not fathom why Dr. Parker would seek him out.

Xiao Shui looked at Zhong Qing in shock, never imagining that Zhong Qing's strength could be so terrifying. He had exerted his full force, yet the outcome turned out this way; he had originally thought he could blast Zhong Qing away with a single sword strike.

"Lin Nuannanda, what are you doing here? Do you even know who you're taking care of right now?" Gao Xudong asked with an even angrier expression.

Song Yi'an chuckled inwardly. This Director Zhu was quite honest; knowing that Professor Ji cared nothing for his position and was, furthermore, a master of traditional national medicine possessing supreme skills, he immediately flipped his attitude, eager to treat Professor Ji like an enshrined deity henceforth.

Still, this trip back to Beijing could be considered settling a matter on my mind. What made me even happier was seeing my older sister; when I received the ring left behind for me by Beizi Zhu from her hands, my tears flowed once again without warning.

Yet the situation proved far easier than Rouenthal had anticipated. Medvedev and Rostov's forces routed the moment they encountered Rouenthal's troops. This was an utter humiliation, especially considering their troops outnumbered Pegasus's forces by nearly fifty percent.

Tong En gave a perfunctory assent, glancing at the unfinished food before her, though she had lost all appetite.

Every word spoken by the housekeeper had reached his ears loud and clear. He harbored an extra ounce of caution toward his steward, speaking to him directly: "Attend to your own affairs. Send Wang Quan over here."

"Thank you, Lady Tang, for your understanding. During this time, We have caused you trouble. The day We ascend the throne once more, We will certainly make satisfactory compensation to you," King Zhen said with a smile.

I felt a strong resistance toward this duel. For one thing, Mahou was not inherently evil and might still be saved; for another... I simply could not defeat him in a fight.

Regarding this tirade from Xia Xue's mother, not only I, but even Xia Xue's father grew extremely indignant, pointing at her and telling her to stop talking nonsense.
