Chapter 52

Chen Jin sat in his seat, pretending to read the newspaper. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the head and the big boss had left. Humming a tune, he got up to use the restroom, casually placing his milk tea cup on the sink.

At the sound, the Fourth Brother immediately lifted his head and stared intently at Zhou Yao, making Zhou Yao’s scalp tingle slightly. He handed his phone over for the Fourth Brother to take a look.

Li Shaoze glanced a few more times, feeling a secret thrill in his heart. Then, clutching his milk tea, he continued chatting with A-Jie, Bao Qiang, and the others.

At least when facing ordinary peak Martial Ancients, or even typical descendants of the imperial clan, he could remain invincible.

While my thoughts wandered, the skull dropped down again, biting Miao Jinxuan’s arm. This time, his movements slowed even further.

He quickly ran to the window to look outside but saw no sign of Zhou Ran. He scanned the surroundings again, still finding no trace.

Now, having been infiltrated and causing a fire, the guards in charge of patrol had gradually grown lax over the years due to the long period of peace and took it lightly.

The Eighteen Riders of Guan Ning spoke in unison. Zhang Zhao immediately produced his military token to verify his identity to Wang Cheng’en.

I was speechless. I had heard these words from Liao Qingjiang before but never expected to hear them from Liu Li today.

Because Yazi’s mother died early, whenever she flew or took a cruise, she felt insecure, manifesting as nervousness and unease.

Two more days passed. One by one, the auction items were sold. The items were varied, each a rare treasure not to be missed, attracting numerous buyers competing eagerly. The success rate was one hundred percent, and each precious item fetched a high price.

This kind of one-size-fits-all approach was, in a sense, quite effective—because not seeing familiar soldiers around and not witnessing comrades die lessened the blow to morale. At the same time, maintaining unit integrity and launching attacks at the regimental level naturally ensured no problems.

After receiving the tickets, Zhan Ya skipped happily back. At 7:15, Zhan Ya and company smoothly passed through the ticket gate and boarded a host marked No. 107, heading from the mountain to Lingnan.

After receiving a reply from the Portuguese side, Ma Bingkun sent all the materials about the island for sale to Chen Rui’s email.

At this moment, Song Que reached toward the wall and pressed with a hand. With a sharp clang, one of the knives seemed to come alive, emitting a humming sound as it sprang from its sheath, indistinguishable from pulling a blade by hand. Song Que then made a grasping motion into the air, and the heavy-backed blade, as if pulled by an invisible thread, fell neatly into his outstretched left palm.

“Although we all think you’re powerful, the Huaxia war zone has five great empires. We don’t believe you can seize the other four empires all at once,” Wu Hongyue said, shaking her head.

Except for Liang Wu and Yan Shao’ou, who were decisive and immediately began building branch mines, others like Jiang Yuanhao and Lu Kai were a step slower. By the time they also constructed branch bases and started dual mining, Hu Siming had already left them far behind.

Thus, although the Duchy of Jutland was nominally a victor, in reality, it had become a puppet state under the Bruton people.

Su Yi thought to herself: with her personality, she would definitely dare to stand against the world! When chaos breaks out, Mancell will indeed be in danger.

“Disaster, disaster!” As the black points fell, people saw their true form. They were arrows, their shafts dark, spinning as they plunged toward the ground. People panicked and started running. Going home was the only thing they could think of.

“Saving your life is the priority. I’d rather not escort the convoy,” Liu Mu said, turning abruptly to leave. “Master Qiao is right. If anything leaks, you’ll likely be torn apart. I’m out too.”

I don’t know how long passed before I finally woke up slowly, my body still a little sore. After all, my body hadn’t fully recovered, and I had expended a great deal of energy, so it was understandable.

“Let these brats play with you for a while!” The man waved both hands, and in an instant, ten gusts of finger wind surged toward the three of them. The golden-furred rats followed closely, squeaking as they lunged to bite Cheng Yu and the others.

That evening, Zhao Yuanchao, An Bang, Old Qiao, Wang Mang, Liu Mu, and Yong Xiao dined with Huang Lianqing and Huang Guo’er, who had come from Hong Kong, accompanied by Zhang Yaoliang.

He hadn’t expected the enemy to attack that spot. No matter how strong one was, that place was always a vulnerability.

“Three hundred fifty-six rounds, with varying power from thousands to tens of thousands of tons. Each is numbered, so be careful when you use them...” Elder Long said.

“What’s the junior brother muttering about? Tomorrow I need to leave the city for a trip. Can you take over the front hall duties?” Hui An entered from outside the door, seeing Hui Neng talking to himself with a sullen face. He smiled and asked.

Zhang Dashan’s expression darkened instantly. Coldly, he said, “I’m at home, waiting for your report!” After saying this, he slammed down the phone.
