Not long after leaving the police station, Yin Niangang went back in again. Zhou Yi’s death had not been clarified, and now Su Yanyan’s death was linked to her as well. Moreover, she had been startled by the sudden closing of the door, a shock that still lingered in her heart. Although she knew the door was slammed shut by the wind, the loud crash coupled with the piercing bell sound had truly frightened her.

While giving her statement, Yin Nian learned from the officers about Su Yanyan’s death.

The preliminary forensic report indicated that Su Yanyan died in the early hours three days ago from an overdose of sleeping pills. There were no signs of a struggle or other wounds on her body. Due to the stuffy weather and closed windows in the room, the air was stagnant, causing the body to decompose prematurely.

The faint scent that Yin Nian caught—

Qin Lie, still unconscious, was suddenly roused by pain; his internal organs felt as if they were being sliced repeatedly by a knife.

A flicker of surprise crossed Lu Junqian’s eyes; he had not expected that the man before him was Fu Jinxing, the king who ruled the business world with overwhelming power.

In the laboratory, Zhang Chu’s discomfort began to ease, as if several skilled 18-year-old masseurs were working on him simultaneously.

I looked closely and saw that beneath her long skirt there were indeed several fluffy fox tails. Counting roughly, there seemed to be six in total.

Upon hearing Jiang Dongliang’s order, two firefighters immediately handed Gao Chengfeng a set of fireproof gear to put on.

Suddenly, a young man rushed over clumsily to catch a frisbee. His eyes fixed intently on its trajectory; with a leap, he caught the frisbee.

Chen Feng’s physical attack still hurt, and Dong Chen immediately launched a magical attack on Leng Huacan.

Shen Chenzhong was the village’s first scholar deeply aware of the importance of literacy. Whenever he returned home, he used his spare time to teach the children to recognize characters. Most of the older kids in Shenjiacun knew a few characters. The children were happy, and the adults were grateful to Shen Xiaozhong. When news spread that he was in trouble, nearly every household mobilized to help.

Meanwhile, Wen Li had originally intended only to tease Huo Yuancheng’s appetite for one night, planning to contact him the next day “when free.” Unexpectedly, her words became a prophecy—she truly had no free time.

“Haha,” Wang Quan laughed twice. Seeing Lin Yong’s gentle expression, he taunted, “Senior Brother Lin, I’ve never respected anyone easily. If you dare to duel me and defeat me, I will sincerely acknowledge you. Do you have the courage?”

“You don’t really think I’m just a silly system, do you?” Jarvis suddenly became serious.

Ji Tang glanced sideways and saw that this person was from Zhongnanhai. Though the exact rank wasn’t clear, he looked very powerful.

Hearing the other party’s words, the host panicked but found she couldn’t move, not even open her mouth.

In such an apocalyptic game, the survival chances of an alliance are far greater than going solo, provided the teammates are trustworthy.

However, the “cooldown” pause was prolonged. During wormhole teleportation, there is an instant “buffer” period. If this moment is seized, Rose becomes truly vulnerable.

Yan Hao shook his head slightly. Unfortunately, they didn’t know there was another exit. Had it not been for his own disciple being captured, he wouldn’t have come this way again.

Though with her power she could have escaped even if defeated, she worried that Yan Hao and the others would be taken by him.

Following Yan Hao, three others entered. As soon as Yan Hao stepped over the threshold, his figure twisted, and the distance of over a hundred meters seemed to shrink to a single step. He crossed to the main seat in the hall and sat down.

Ji Tang was not the type to lock them at home every day for live streaming just for money—such money would be too hot to handle.

Besides the previously mentioned aims, Nangong Yan’s proposal had a deeply hidden purpose: to protect Ace.

“The Golden Demon has returned, which means…” People looked around excitedly. Soon, a great atmospheric disturbance appeared in the sky, followed by shouts from the air.

“Alright, as you wish,” Zeng Hao said, waving one hand, teleporting Qin Sen directly out of the Gathering Immortals Mansion.

“Qin Chuan and Li Xiaomo have come specially to pay their respects!” A long shout echoed from the military camp. Though not as grand as Yan Beige’s roar, it was full of vigor, conveying immense confidence and power.
