Chapter 53: You Are My Best Friend

"This cloth bag contains my life savings, mostly bank notes," his gaze carried a deep plea. "I likely won't have use for them anymore. Please... donate them to those in need on my behalf..."
The cloth bag was thrust into Sheng Xiayan's hands. The instant her fingertips touched the fabric, an indescribable wave of sorrow surged within her heart.
......
"Hold down those hellish ghost corpses!" Doushibao immediately issued an order to her summoned pets. Acting like mere puppets, these summoned beasts charged directly forward to engage the hellish ghost corpses head-on.
She found it hard to believe that Luo Ping could cultivate from a level-one void immortal to a level-nine mysterious immortal in the span of ten thousand years, as the gap in between was simply too vast.
As soon as the meeting concluded, the high-spirited military officers all departed, leaving behind only Gaochong, Wang Yan, and Dai Bin. Wang Yan walked over to greet Dai Bin.
Wang Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief, his mind replaying the scene that had just unfolded. The mere thought of it terrified him to death, and he trembled uncontrollably with lingering fear.
This surprised many people. If they chose not to attack the forbidden zone, it could still be understood, but to place Mount Zhongnan on the same level as the forbidden zones of life forced people to think deeply—was Mount Zhongnan truly that terrifying?
Tiemu Yun was slightly startled. Even when facing the Eight-Branch Orochi, the Heavenly Thunder Lion had never shown fear or retreated; why was it suddenly not daring to attack rashly?
It seemed intentional; when it was the turn of the person right before Zhong Lingyu, there was still precisely one elimination spot left.
Zhou Can attempted to decline further, but seeing the looks of anticipation on everyone's faces in the tent, he had no choice but to take the command arrow, bid farewell to the crowd, and lead two commanders to make arrangements. Zheng Ding and the others were each attended to by their personal guards and went off to rest and recover.
"Then... who was the one that spread the news about the Sea of the Sky in the Great Desolate Ancient Forest?" Asking with lingering doubt, Tiemu Yun also perked up with interest.
"How about this? We roll the dice, and whoever wins gets all the equipment," I said with a flash of inspiration.
All of this was to catch the attention of the Hongzhi Emperor, complete missions, and earn points. There was no other way; only with points could he utilize the various functions of his golden finger and achieve a comeback as a salted fish.
These rebellious soldiers were wantonly venting the final beastly urges of their lives, completely lacking the righteous and disciplined military demeanor they had displayed when they first raised troops.
As soon as the person emerged, several malicious reporters could not wait to step forward and question them, completely disregarding the rules.
The former Letter Seal City had been fraught with crises everywhere, without a single person one could trust. In retrospect, it must have been Ren Hai's status and geographical location that had limited his thinking.
He also intended to take these regulations and manuals to show his easygoing old father, asking him to review them and see if any omissions remained.
Slowly approaching the large bed, Ziyi glanced at Nalan Jie lying upon it, discovering that a faint aura of death actually pervaded the old man's face.
Gently picking up the Seven-Color Heaven-Swallowing Python and stroking it tenderly, Ziyi could not help but let out a deep sigh of relief, his entire body drained of strength. He slumped straight down from the air and sat flat on the ground. Only then did he realize that his back was completely soaked through.
Suxin was removing her makeup in front of the mirror. A pair of gold-inlaid jade earrings—with fine jade quality and exquisite craftsmanship—were her absolute favorite.
With the influence of the Fang family in Qingzhou, a brief investigation would lay bare his background, so Ye晨 naturally had no need to conceal it.
The Marquis of Chengen's wife grew sadder the more she thought, wept the harder she grew sadder, and could no longer hold back her tears... Lady Lu, who had initially maintained her patience and offered consolation out of conscience, could no longer restrain herself either. For her to be willing to go behind others' backs to inquire with the An family was already asking a great deal of her.
"Don't worry, Boss. I've memorized everything taught today, and I guarantee I'll excavate a top-tier mineral vein within ten days to save face for you," Wu Yi said confidently. Black gold mines were relatively widespread here, and with Old Qi's experience, completing this task shouldn't be too difficult.
