Chapter 166: The Neighbor

Just as Li Qingyun finished packing up most of their things, Gu Tingzhou returned carrying three lunch boxes.

There was one box of steamed coarse-grain buns, one of meat dishes, and one of vegetable dishes.

The contents were braised pork with potatoes and pickled cabbage stewed with vermicelli.

The portions were extremely generous. Li Qingyun and Dabao ate half, and the rest was completely finished off by Gu Tingzhou all by himself.

Erbao also got a small piece of a bun. The little fellow was already able to hold it and nibble on it by himself, not even forgetting to pick up the fallen crumbs from the table to eat.

There was no doubt about it; he was a true foodie.

He now ate two meals a day.

However, today was a different situation. Everyone gathered here to play consisted of offspring from the most prestigious families in the capital, and the person capable of running this club was certainly no ordinary figure.

Although the Dark Lord was in excruciating pain, he bared his teeth with a ferocious expression, looking utterly frantic.

To ensure the safety of the Primordial Coordinate at the Starry Sky Post, he had actually destroyed a living world. Of course, this also demonstrated the vital importance of protecting the Primordial Coordinate.

Just as he stepped out of his meditation, Meng Die'er's melodious voice rang out. Over these past few days, the relationship between Meng Die'er and Xue'er had grown increasingly close, and Li Meixian seemed quite pleased that Meng Die'er frequently came over to their residence for meals.

"Dad..." How many years ago was that, yet Ye Mingdao still kept bringing it up. Besides, how young was he back then, and how old was he now? In her heart, Ye Qingcheng harbored quite a bit of dissatisfaction.

As the Saber Saint landed, Jiang Deqiang, Jin Wuming, Zhang Qing, and a crowd of experts around them bowed in succession.

"An organization? Hmph, I couldn't care less about any organization's arrangements. I must tell you all, this is Huaxia," Hu Banjin said with extreme arrogance.

Gongye Haomiao, remaining impartial as an observer, recognized that the Azure Lion Spirit was using a provocation tactic. Just as he was about to withdraw, he said, "For lowly beasts like you, being able to cultivate is already a stroke of great fortune. Yet instead of cherishing yourselves, you insist on committing such bloodthirsty, murderous, and heinous acts. You deserve to be executed." Before he finished speaking, he had already unleashed the Guyue Sword, cutting off the Azure Lion Spirit's retreat route.

After giving a stern reprimand, Zhang Qingtian issued his orders, and the others went down to make preparations.

At this moment, Xia Lie was heavily restrained by that soul power, while Dugu Ce's battle soul energy had also been severely battered. The two Sanctuary-level powerholders were unable to look after each other, and any possibility of a joint counterattack was ruthlessly cut off by Yin Yan.

The events that transpired today made Zhang Daxiang utterly unable to endure it, leading him to even exchange blows with Gao Lü.

Ever since the Dragon Island shattered into pieces, Tess had not encountered any other lucid dragons for a very long time; only those bizarre and evil entities wearing dragon bodies wandered the Divine Grace Continent.

Over the next few days, Daoist Yuanyue would come over every day under the pretext of delivering food to guide him in his martial arts, ranging from Tai Chi and internal energy application techniques to some of the commonly used sword techniques of the Wudang Sect.

The autumn wind was desolate and boundless, with a boundless gray sky. Suddenly, a torrential rain poured down, the giant raindrops initially distinct before instantly merging into a continuous line, shrouding the earth like a curtain of pearls. Wherever the rain reached, the surrounding view became blurred, resembling clouds and fog.

Those employees who thirsted for further advancement and possessed firearms experience were all sent by Tom to the frontline battlefields of the French-Mexican War.

The reason Ye Shu found it hard to believe was precisely the cold and haughty aura he emitted at that moment. This temperament had been forged over eight years; with nothing in his life except cultivation, studying medicine, alchemy, and familiarizing himself with the properties of medicinal herbs, it had formed naturally without even having anyone to converse with.

His first instinct was still to resort to the most primitive, brutal, and despicable method—assassination.

After all, the vice presidents and president at the headquarters were Earth-Master-level super experts. While they were not fearful, they could not help but sigh in emotion.

Listening to the replies of the two before him, Li Shimin pondered inwardly. Both of these men had been his right-hand assistants when he was conquering the realm, and their strategic counsel was what he relied upon most.

Qin Yi walked in with his hands clasped behind his back, and many locals surrounded the entrance like they were looking at an extraterrestrial being, casting curious glances at him from time to time.
