Volume 1, Chapter 34: Coveting Money is Better Than Coveting a Person

Before leaving, Lin Yuxia carefully covered her wound with waterproof lipstick. Throughout the meal, she remained cautious, doing her best not to smudge it. As a result, by the end of the meal, although the lipstick had worn off slightly, it still managed to provide enough coverage. However, no matter how durable the makeup, it could not withstand the friction of a wet towel.

"But a seven-hundred-thousand-year soul ring? Even a Title Douluo couldn't absorb that, right? The sheer, terrifying energy would cause a person to explode," Li Dao said.

Some people ran toward the village, shouting to share the news, while others headed to the Zhang household to inform Zhang Hongda and the others of Zhang Hao’s return.

The Public Security Bureau would not open until 8:30 in the morning, so no matter how anxious that fellow Ye Zhirong might be, he could not possibly be waiting at the bureau any earlier.

"Don't look at me. I do whatever the captain does; I’m just a bit slower than him," Sam said with a shrug.

"We’ll just send planes to drop leaflets, of course. As long as we paralyze the Sun-Moon Empire’s control over the occupied territories, their offensive strength will naturally weaken," Dai Huadong said with a smile.

The moment the wolf howl erupted, as if drawn by the immense spiritual power within it, the Black Obsidian Dragon dwelling inside Meng Batian walked up to that strange heart. It said nothing, merely staring at the pool of boiling spring water, its eyes filled with curiosity.

"Sir, please try to think back carefully. For instance, what was the weather like the day you saw that person? Or did anything particularly unusual happen?" Cheng Haiyang prompted, trying to help him recall.

Then, the humanoid silhouette violently slammed Sherman into the ground, a blow that created a crater ten meters deep and hundreds of meters in diameter.

Finally, the incantation ended, and the man picked up an exquisite glass, pouring the liquid inside onto the candle.

During this period, Lin Zhou had been diligently practicing flying in Fenghua Island. Now that his skills were excellent, he was even showing off by performing high-difficulty maneuvers in the air.

Displaying two types of ultimate footwork, Lu Donglai arrived in an instant before Huang Wuzhen, then threw a punch to meet him head-on.

At this moment, Tumi looked like a masked bandit, except that his hooded head and face had swollen to a ridiculous size, resembling a steamed bun.

"Isn't that something from when we went to Nord? Were they planning this that far back?" Rean asked.

Tian Bailing sat to the side, stroking the fur on her cat’s back while glancing at Gong Qi, who was sipping tea, a thoughtful expression on her face.

Although her face was veiled, it was clear that she was smiling radiantly at Wu Song’s words. Being able to comfort Wu Song was, naturally, something that brought her great joy.

"The murderer inside the mechanical warrior is you, isn't it, Ultimate Astronaut Kaito Momota? That’s right, it’s Momota inside there, isn't it?" Lin Xiao said.

Although Shen Zhangtian was a forthright man, he was not the type to act on every whim like Sha Dutian.

Sha Dutian opened a bottle of Wuliangye, and the fragrance of the liquor filled the air. He took a sip, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath, savoring it immensely. The fact that Zhao Ruozhi would bring out such a fine vintage for him was proof of the genuine bond between them.

Reports came in that soldiers had started to desert. Some, unable to endure Wu Song’s inhumanly brutal training, simply fell behind during marches and never caught up, while others openly took the opportunity to slip away. Among those fleeing were both common soldiers and several commissioned officers.

Just then, a faint red halo radiated from Li Xinyue’s body. The two, lost in their intoxication, felt nothing, yet the red glow was emanating slowly from the point of their intimate contact.

His forbidden magic had been exhausted during the battle against the City-State Continent and the United States national battlefield; now, he only had standard magic and his command over laws and profound mysteries.
